MONTH OF September
Pisces, this could be the month you’ve been waiting for, when stalled plans start to move and things begin to make sense again. A game-changing eclipse is landing in YOUR sign on September 17, kicking off a cycle of personal evolution that will last until February 2027. Ready to get back in the driver’s seat and feel clear about your purpose and mission? Maybe you’re longing for a whole new direction. Get ready—your time has arrived.
What’s been so tough about being a Fish for the past couple years? Well, ever since March 2023, suppressive Saturn has been traveling through Pisces, making you jump through hoops and learn harsh lessons to get ahead.
Typically your charm and manifesting magic do all the heavy lifting, but those #PiscesPerks went on sabbatical, forcing you to earn every accolade through hard work and determination. If you’ve weathered self-doubt and discouragement, no surprise.
The hidden gift of hosting Saturn in your sign, which you’ll do on and off until February 2026, will show up in due time—like muscles starting to show definition after a grueling season of boot camp. With personal-trainer planet Saturn at the helm, you develop grit, resilience and self-discipline. You’re forced to build a stronger foundation, be more mindful and less laissez-faire about how you present yourself, the choices you make, the relationships you build. By not falling asleep at the wheel or coasting through life, you grow in mission-critical ways.
But let’s be real, Pisces. Your sign traffics in magic and miracles, not hardscrabble hustling. And your life could certainly use some re-enchantment. Good news: The September 17 Pisces eclipse could be the reboot you’ve been waiting for, a flash reminder that the universe is still on your side. (We’ll get to that shortly but wanted to let you know that good news is on the way!)
That doesn’t mean you should just sit back and passively wait, however. Co-creating with the universe is your recipe for success in September and beyond.
In fact, you’ll need to stay on your toes because the first half of September is action-packed from day one. On September 1, both Uranus and Pluto will make retrograde moves and will also unite in a harmonizing 120-degree trine that hasn’t happened since the early 1920s! These two cosmic giants last met up in a similar fashion in the early 1920s, ushering in radical social, economic and political change. Ready to relive the Roaring Twenties, perhaps with an AI twist? This rare cosmic convergence could surface some vivid and surreal ideas!
Partnerships of all kinds are also on the table with the Sun in Virgo until September 22, a Virgo new moon on September 2 and energizer Mars shifting into Cancer from September 4 to November 3, activating your fifth house of passion, creativity and pleasure. On September 22, the Sun plunges into Libra and your erotic, intimate eighth house. Cuffing season ‘24 is suddenly coming in white-hot, especially while romantic Venus is in Libra until September 22.
With activator Mars in emotional Cancer for most of the month, your sensitive Pisces nature will be on full display. It’s great for your love life, but less so for the other parts. Being such an open book under some of September’s transits can be a liability. While we’re all for being vulnerable and transparent, be discerning about who gets access to the deeply personal sides of your life. Pluto retrograde could let a few shady characters slip through the velvet ropes.
You’ve been quite the pot-stirrer for the past few years, Pisces, thanks to disruptor Uranus, which is in Taurus for a long seven-year visit that began in 2019 and will end in April 2026. On September 1, Uranus will turn retrograde until January 30, 2025, backtracking through Taurus and your interactive, social third house.
Uranus turns retrograde for five months every year, a time when things slow down and settle a bit—which can be a relief! Change is fun, but constant change is exhausting. With Uranus retrograde in your communication and community realm, it’s time to check in on your relationships. A friendship that’s been unstable or even damaged by a feud could benefit from an air-clearing conversation. Or you may decide to really keep your distance for the next few months.
Your relationship with a sibling or colleague could also go through a Uranian overhaul. With the planet of liberation and authenticity tearing through this zone, you won’t hold back! But if a softer delivery is called for, the retrograde could help you with that.
The third house rules multimedia, teaching and writing. Got a trailblazing message to share with the world or an educational product that will blow minds? Maybe you’ve dreamed up a killer life-hacking app or platform. With tech-savvy Uranus here, there’s hardly a better person to spearhead this idea—it’s certainly worth exploring! But keep it in the prototyping mode for the rest of the year if possible. Uranus retrograde will help you beta-test and refine your concept before prematurely launching it into the world.
Watch what you post and send out too. If you have a business of any kind, work on your marketing and social media profiles. Keep things out of the realm of “controversy” for the time being as Uranus retrograde could attract trolls and other negative energy that you don’t need now.
The September 2 Virgo new moon ushers in a favorable six-month chapter for dynamic duos. Ready to make a fresh start with your closest people? Begin this new chapter today. A simmering attraction could start to move in the official direction. Toying with the idea of a business collaboration? You could field an offer—or make one—around this date.
But don’t rush in because the next day, hasty Mars and nebulous Neptune will clash in a 90-degree square. Things could get hectic, with friends and loved ones clamoring for your attention. Tension could rise if you attempt to please everyone while Neptune in your sign brawls with aggressive Mars in Gemini and your domestic sector.
Don’t give into the needy “emotional vampires” in your orbit. If you’re craving some space, say so! People can’t fault you for taking a day for self-care. The silver lining? Mars moves out of Gemini and into Cancer tomorrow, heating up your romance house until November 3.
Are you writing people off before giving them a chance? On September 8, the annual Sun-Saturn opposition could deliver an eye-opening look at the people in your closest circle. Who are the solid supporters who stand by you unconditionally…and who are the sparkleponies just there for a good time?
Beware a bout of pessimism during that Sun-Saturn face-off, especially with sourpuss Saturn in YOUR sign. You could be torn between holding the ground for YOUR vision and needs and navigating a pushy or aggressive person’s agenda.
Finding the energy to put up a fight may be a mission impossible. A partner could give advice in a way that comes across as arrogant and “I know better,” spinning you into temporary self-doubt. You might have second thoughts about a contract you’ve signed or the way things are going between you and a key person.
Don’t succumb to those hopeless feelings, Pisces! Although you might not see eye-to-eye on every issue, a collaboration could pay off in the long run. But know your bottom line. Compromises should still feel like win-wins. You shouldn’t have to sacrifice your vision to get in anyone’s good graces today. Who knows? Your polar opposite could turn out to be the missing puzzle piece. Time will tell.
This negotiation between self and others is a theme you’ll navigate over the next couple years. And you’ll get a sneak preview on September 17, when the year’s only Pisces full moon arrives as a supermoon AND a partial lunar eclipse.
Not only does this kick off fall eclipses season, it’s a brand-new eclipse series on the Virgo-Pisces axis that will redefine ALL your relationships between now and February 2027. Can you assure people that you’re there for them while still prioritizing your own needs to roam, explore and launch your own creative ventures?
Look back to the period between March 2015 and February 2017, the last time there were eclipses in your sign. Did you redraw relationship boundaries or do something exciting for yourself? Another round of that is coming in.
Swear you’d never get back on the dating apps? We know the dating scene’s been lackluster lately BUT consider jumping back in the pool—especially around September 19 to 21—as the cosmos presents a magic matchmaking window of opportunity! With the intentional Virgo Sun forming a grand earth trine (a harmonious planetary three-way symphony) with electrifying Uranus and sexy Pluto, don’t be surprised if a right swipe sparks an immediate connection. One minute you’re making casual chitchat, the next you’re discussing your favorite engagement ring settings or how many kids you both want. Things can speed up unexpectedly today, so turn those notifications on and be ready for anything!
Slip out of the spotlight to rejuvenate starting September 22, when the Sun plunges into Libra and your private, restorative eighth house. The fall equinox is here to bring balance—and for you, that could mean spending quality time with your closest people rather than scattering your energy out in the world with a million acquaintances.
With el Sol heating up this erotic sector, a mind-body-soul connection could turn into a sizzling fall romance. The eighth house rules shared finances and investments, and over the next four weeks, you could find ways to make your money work harder for you. Do your research and due diligence and you could start creating a plan for security that pays serious dividends!
Your relationships are at the forefront this month, Pisces. With the Sun in Virgo and your committed seventh house until September 22, lusty Mars shifting into Cancer and your romantic fifth house from September 4 to November 3 AND a brand-new eclipse series kicking off midmonth in Virgo/Pisces in your partnership zone through February 2027, cuffing season is “H-O-T-T-O-G-O” (as your favorite artist’s favorite artist—and fellow Pisces—Chappell Roan would say).
Magnetic Venus is also burning through Libra and your soul-stirring, mystical eighth house until September 22, amplifying your seductive powers this month. Solo Fish might meet their “other half” and connect on an intellectual level. Coupled Pisces can also benefit from this diplomatic vibe by smoothing over any issues within the relationship. Thoughtful gestures, like picking up your S.O.’s favorite takeout, will go a long way.
On September 2, the Virgo new moon marks a fresh chapter in your relationship or love life, clarifying what you need most in dating and mating. Single Pisces could get inspired to find a long-term match and take concrete action in the coming weeks to actually meet this person. The moves you make and conversations you have will hold extra weight today. Be sure to enlist your friends, many of whom have probably been waiting to hook you up with their most eligible connections.
Coupled Pisces can turn over a new leaf, too, whether you do something formal like getting engaged or renewing vows or just commit to trying some new hobbies or traveling together. This new moon is meant to push you out of a comfortable but stagnant rut, ushering in new energy that will unfold over the next six months. It’s time to get intentional about your idea of commitment.
The Pisces lunar (full moon) eclipse puts the spotlight on YOU on September 17. If you’ve been hiding your real opinions from your partner, these moonbeams herald a “coming out” moment for you. Speak your truth, Pisces, and be a warrior for your own cause. If a union feels claustrophobic, you might decide to take a solo vacation or possibly a break. If someone is toxic for you, remember: You DO have a choice. Whatever you decide, there’s a good chance you need more autonomy. And no one’s going to just give that to you—so stand up for yourself and take it.
Speaking of freedom…on September 22, Venus sails into Scorpio, your ninth house of travel, discovery and freewheeling adventure, stoking your joie de vivre until October 17. This cycle gives you a breath of fresh air and respite from all the made-for-two drama. Single Pisces could see sparks flying with a long-distance love interest or someone from a widely divergent background than your own. Vive le difference!
Bring on the dynamic duos! The Sun is zipping through Virgo and your seventh house of partnerships, bringing harmony back to your bonds through September 22. For the first three weeks of the month, focus on clear and effective communication. Mental Mercury joins the Sun in Virgo on September 9 (until September 26), after ending a disruptive retrograde that lasted most of August, making it easier for everyone to get on the same page.
The Virgo new moon on September 2 plants seeds for promising partnerships to unfold over the next six months. Could a loyal member of Team Pisces use more recognition? Give credit where it’s due and help them ascend alongside you. Treating your tireless cohorts fairly will inspire them to work harder toward your greater mission. Maybe you’re looking for a business partner or collaborator who can share your existing workload, leaving you more time to focus on the big picture rather than the nitty-gritty.
If you’re hoping to explore career options, tap a well-connected person in your field to write a glowing testimonial on your behalf, or ask a friend or former colleague to make a helpful introduction that could get your foot in the door.
On September 17, the Pisces lunar eclipse jazzes up your first house of self. Feeling reassured and confident, you might step into the spotlight, gain some fame or recognition or simply stand up on your soapbox and be heard. All this attention could be dizzying, but it’s your time to shine, Pisces. These developments stand to revolutionize your career too. Use this cosmic mojo to put your creativity and personal agendas on the front burner.
This newfound self-assurance could also help magnetize the right collaborators to take your ideas to the next level. When the Sun shifts into Libra and your eighth house of joint ventures and long-term finances on September 22, you’ll get clearer insight about who can be trusted for the long haul. Over the next month, explore opportunities to merge your resources for mutual gain or to make a savvy investment. Passive-income prospects could pop up, such as a chance to earn affiliate money, royalties or commissions.
