Astro Daily: September 5, 2018

Mercury moves out of Leo, a sign that it’s been in since late June, and we’re ready to get to work. This after a couple of months of everything and nothing happening all at once. Hopefully we’ve planned, we’ve reevaluated. Time to move forward.

Another planet getting us motivated is Saturn. It turns direct tomorrow in Capricorn, a sign that’s all about making things happen, albeit in measured, precise ways. See, Saturn is like the life coach of all the planets. It knows you came here in this life to get something achieved. Maybe it’s to learn how to be in healthy relationship. Maybe it’s to build professional success. Maybe it’s to help others. Whatever it is, Saturn is here to make sure you stay committed to the task.

Me? I have Saturn in the sign of Virgo, for example. So Saturn’s making sure I stay organized, focused, and disciplined. Saturn is making sure I make my health a priority. So you’re going to be feeling the pressure this week from your Cosmic Life Coach. And if you’re not getting your work done, Saturn has a tendency to be the parent, not unlike mom or dad coming home to discover that we didn’t do any of our homework or chores.

Even though you may have been born with Saturn in a particular sign and in a particular part of your chart, it’s in Capricorn right now. The bar is set high for all of us because Capricorn is a sign that aims high. It builds, it strategizes, and it tenaciously works towards its goals. Not sure what Saturn wants you to be working on this week? Check out my Saturn in Capricorn: Sign by Sign guide below.

In the meantime, with Mercury in Virgo, we’re also feeling the urge to clean out, tidy up, and get a handle on everything we have to do. Again, life’s going to start to get some speed on it after all the ups and downs, back and forth over the past couple of months. Use this energy wisely.

Oh and today’s Cancer Moon may be a little touchy or even hot headed as it makes oppositions to Pluto and Mars into tomorrow. Just a heads up.

PS — Are you in the NYC area? I’m co-hosting a free introduction and meditation tomorrow, Thursday, September 6, to an event I’m co-leading next week.
