A fiery Aries Moon starts our week, a moon that needs to move and get things started. With Mars still in Virgo, we’re focusing on work and projects, but keep in mind that Mars is still opposing Neptune. We may be feeling confused or a little unsure of direction.

Mars in Virgo opposite Neptune in Pisces is one of those frustrating aspects because it’s one where we’re not in control. Perhaps that’s an unpopular thing to say, but whenever Neptune is part of the story, we can’t do ego, which is to say that we can’t meet Neptune at the level of our human selves. Neptune is spirituality. It’s the great forces beyond our control that are always there but easy to miss. Neptune is the universality of life. Neptune is surrender.

So, there’s an element of surrender as we start the week. How can we align our human selves and our human plans with the divine plan? And as we come off of Friday’s Pisces Full Moon, it’s still a good time to meditate, reflect, and reconnect with the quiet voice within.

We also got a couple of Chiron aspects in the mix. Mercury opposes Chiron in Aries followed by Venus opposite Chiron in Aries tomorrow. Pay attention to any old stories that may be resurfacing, especially stories or even patterns around communication and relationships. How can we heal the past?

I’ll be talking about all this and more in my weekly Facebook Live today at 5:30 pm EDT. (That’s 2:30 pm Los Angeles, 10:30 pm London, 7:30 am Sydney on September 17.) Plus, you can catch the replay on Facebook as well as my Empowering Astrology YouTube channel.

I’ll also be talking about Saturn’s direct turn in Capricorn on Wednesday and what that means for all of us. If you want to get a jump on what Saturn is trying to teach you and make sure you’re learning, I’m doing a webinar on Tuesday, September 17 called Facing Saturn: Learn to Master Your Life. You can still register to receive the video and audio replay, even if you cannot join the webinar live. Details and registration here.
