We have an active week full of planetary transits.

In this week’s Astrology, Venus will shift from Libra to Scorpio, intensifying the urge for deeper connections. Mercury’s entering Libra might encourage us to make a concerted effort to have more harmonious conversations. Saturn and Pluto are making the second semisextile for 2024, causing us to strive for something better. And it's a busy period for Mercury and Venus alignments, creating a need for social exchanges and romance.

9/23 Venus Enters Scorpio: Romance That’s Not For The Faint At Heart

On Monday, Venus moves into Scorpio, transitioning from the light-heartedness of Libra to a more severe tone regarding relationships and finances.

It's important to note that Venus rules Taurus and opposes Scorpio, placing it into a condition called "detriment" in Astrology.

Venus is linked to pleasure and a more carefree approach to life, while Scorpio is associated with a more intense and severe outlook. This contrast may cause some challenges during this transit.

Nevertheless, there is potential for positive outcomes from this combination.

Energetically, this pairing helps us uncover underlying issues, allowing us to recognize and address patterns that need to be transformed in our relationships and financial circumstances.

Vibes like this help us take a moment to reflect deeply on what we value most in our lives. We may feel compelled to seek depth in our relationships and professional lives during this period. As a result, we prioritize meaningful connections and financial matters over superficial experiences.

On the downside, we must be cautious of becoming fixated, engaging in jealous behavior, power struggles, excessive suspicion, and being overly attached to our romantic relationships.

From the 23rd to the 26th, Venus will connect with the Sun, Jupiter, and Saturn in complex alignments.

Just as Venus enters Scorpio, it creates a configuration with Saturn that might cause us to fixate on relationships that make us feel constrained.

By Wednesday, the Sun and Venus will be in a sextile that could rev up the need to receive validation because we’re in need of an ego boost. Then, by Thursday, Venus and Jupiter will make an aspect that could lead to a significant need for over-the-top displays of affection and to overindulge in sweet treats.

9/24 Mercury Trine Uranus: Ingenious Thoughts

Mercury and Uranus will align harmoniously, leading to a sense of clarity about overcoming complex issues.

Communication will be particularly active with this pairing because it promotes refreshing interactions to socialize with friends. It's also a favorable time to set goals, take calculated risks, and explore new endeavors.

Our minds might experience heightened focus during this alignment, making challenging situations more manageable. Additionally, we could encounter sudden bursts of creativity that help us break through any mental barriers hindering our progress.

Contrasting that energy the next day, Mercury will connect with Neptune in a way that could lead to a lack of clarity. However, some of the Uranus energy might mitigate this, leading to moments when we feel clear and others where we need to make sense of our thoughts and other intentions.

9/25 Saturn Semisquare Pluto: Working Toward Something Better Pt 2

Wednesday brings in the 2nd transit between Saturn and Pluto, which will help us understand how to pave the way toward something better and long-lasting.

May 6th was our first taste of this outer planet-to-planet aspect. The reason why we’re getting this additional connection this year is that both planets are in retrograde. We’ll get one more of these in 2025, as these celestial bodies will be out of their regressive cycles.

Another thing to note is that this particular aspect is significant as it marks the beginning stages of the 2020 Saturn-Pluto conjunction. For this reason, it assists us in recognizing an opportunity that’s become more visible four years after that critical configuration.

Energetically, the semisextile between these celestial bodies will be more reflective than outwardly impactful. Once we gain a better understanding and formulate a plan, we may develop strategies that lead to action.

Saturn and Pluto in this configuration encourages us to modify things that require transformation because we are focused on improving our circumstances. We may feel compelled to explore innovative approaches to stagnant conditions throughout this phase.

Under this influence, we will devise practical solutions for complex issues and goals, prompting us to approach situations steadily. This period allows us to work diligently in a manner that fosters growth.

Another potential manifestation is an increase in discipline, which enables us to eliminate time-wasting activities. With a transit of this nature, we may also experience heightened focus and greater endurance, providing us with the stamina needed for demanding tasks.

On the more stressful side of this alignment, it may be a time to release limitations, evaluate diminished resources, feel despondent, or come to terms with slower progress than desired.

We’ll get the last of the 3 of these transits on January 26^th, 2025. After that, this arrangement won’t occur again until February 10^th, 2049.

9/25 Mars Semisquare Uranus: Sudden Agitation

The 25th continues with another challenging aspect between Mercury and Uranus.

With a mixture of this caliber, we might experience a day where conversations take surprising twists. This particular cosmic alignment could lead to encounters with individuals who seek attention by saying peculiar things.

Given the heightened nervous energy, it will be important to find ways to center ourselves; otherwise, we may feel on edge. In such energetic conditions, things are also less likely to unfold as planned, potentially leaving us feeling like our day is off-kilter and nothing is going according to expectations.

Another potential of this transit is that it might bring out the argumentative side in people who enjoy provoking others. Consequently, this might result in disputes arising from feeling irritated by those who express themselves for shock value.

9/26 Mercury Enters Libra: Making Concessions For Others

Mercury’s entering Libra leading to a gentler communication approach.

A pairing like this encourages us to approach our interactions and mindset more relaxedly. So, this could feel like a period to engage in light-hearted conversations with those we have close relationships, which helps strengthen the bonds in our partnerships.

The urge to consider the needs of others and emphasize the importance of harmony in our relationships will be at the forefront.

Because of this, we’ll feel more open than usual when forming deep connections with new people.

In terms of romantic relationships, this energy brings out the charming qualities of others, potentially leading to more passionate exchanges. It also fosters more significant interest in purposeful dating, making it likely for singles to attract those seeking committed relationships. For established couples, it's a time to express affection for each other through words of affirmation.

It's important to note that there is a downside to this alignment that could exacerbate negative traits associated with Libra.

Possible manifestations of this lower vibrational energy include indecisiveness, a tendency to seek approval, and insincere flattery. We might also feel the results of resentment stemming from not voicing concerns and passive-aggressive behavior. And we need to be mindful of a desire to achieve a sense of balance that primarily benefits oneself.

Over the next 3 days, we’ll feel more focused than typical due to Mercury making a harmonious transit with Pluto that could help us think and speak more clearly.

One of the cool things about this aspect is that we’ll have the bandwidth for deeper conversations, allowing us to feel mentally stimulated. Also, it could be a time to uncover things that didn’t make sense to us, engage in deep research, and dive into topics that are typically too profound to focus on.

Imagination and confusion will last until the 25th, connecting with psychic, mental, solitude, and ambitious vibes.

With a mixed-bag week such as this, we’ll feel as though we’re more sensitive to energies than typical, causing us to feel introspective. However, we’ll be motivated to do our own thing, resolve our problems, and tackle goals.

A smidge of mental and emotional sensitivity will appear until the 26^th, leading to an edgy tone and causing us to be touchier than usual.

Then, from the 28th to the 29th, good luck, ambition, and solitude will be present. By the weekend, some of the tone changes, putting us in a better mood but still having an underlying feeling of needing to ground our emotions. However, it’s a time to consider worthwhile opportunities that may lead to fortunate outcomes.
