New Moon
The New Moon at 18° Virgo arrives on September 11th, offering a favorable opportunity to take stock of your inner life.
It’s an ideal time to create a list of your needs and wants, gaining awareness of your current priorities and aspirations.
Cleaning
In general, this New Moon period encourages you to start a fresh cleaning regimen and declutter your surroundings.
Sorting out your belongings can bring a sense of order and clarity to your physical space.
Embrace the start of a new cleaning routine and take time to organize your belongings.
This is an opportune moment to create a list of your needs and wants, gaining deeper insight into your inner life and current priorities.
Avoid Self-criticism
Opt for an optimistic outlook on your life and choices and refrain from being overly self-critical.
Instead, focus on celebrating your achievements and victories which you have earned and deserve them.
By doing so, you can cultivate a positive and empowering mindset for the journey ahead.

During this phase, choose to embrace optimism about your way of living and avoid being overly self-critical.

16th Neptune sextile Pluto
Ongoing
Neptune in Aries is once more making a sextile to Pluto in Aquarius.
This transiting aspect has been on and off for almost seventy-five years and as such is considered a generational aspect.
It is also in my chart where Neptune is in Scorpio and Pluto is in Virgo and they are sextile each other.
23rd the Sun enters Libra
Equinox
At the equinox equilibrium returns if only for a short while.
There is an urge to find win-win
On September 23rd, during the equinox, universal equilibrium briefly returns.
As the Sun enters Libra the energy encourages a search for win-win situations, and many individuals will be open to negotiations to some extent.
However, it’s essential to recognize that trying to please everyone is an impossible task.
Relationships
Instead, it’s wiser to concentrate on appeasing and nurturing the relationships with those who are close and dear to you.
By prioritizing meaningful connections, you can foster a sense of harmony and balance in your life during this time of universal equilibrium.
23rd Mabon
Festival
The festival of Mabon occurs on September 23rd this year.

During this period, you might gain clarity on matters that have been apparent to others but perhaps not so evident to you.
Inner Calm and Grace
To navigate this intense phase, practice decisiveness and maintain a calm composure.
Avoid reacting impulsively to emotional provocations from others.
Instead, opt to take the high road, focusing on maturity and grace in your responses.
By doing so, you can handle the Aries Full Moon’s energy in a constructive and positive manner.

For September we highlight Isis.
You can explore her myth and enjoy the original artwork created by Arwynne.
September 2026 Background Energy
Broad Strokes
I always like to get a feel for the month by looking the background energy.
This is typically shown through all the planetary positions by sign and their polarity, element and mode emphasis.
As each month develops planets move and create the background energy modifications that I’m talking about here.
For my background energy count I only consider 10 planets which are the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Chiron.
I ignore the Moon.
This is not an exact science, but what in astrology is?
1st September 2026
Polarity
On September 1st the polarities are still slightly out of kilter with 6 Active and four Passive.
Element
The elements are slightly unbalanced with Fire = 3, Earth 3, Air = 3 and lowly Water = 1.
There is no clear front runner in the elements which, if you recall, need to have two more planets than the next best element which is not the case for Fire, Earth or Air.
Mode
The modes at the start of September are balanced with Cardinal = 4, Fixed = 3 and Mutable = 3.
Again, in the modes there is no clear winner.
Overall
The overall energy feel for the beginning of September is balanced.
There are no specific outliers by polarity, element, mode or sign whatsoever.
1st October 2026
Polarity
On October 1st the Active polarity has a whopping eight planets, out of a possible 10, thus the passive polarity is reduced to only two planets.
Element
The elemental focus at the end of September is strongly Fire with five planets.
Mode
The mode emphasis is towards Fixed with five planets.
Overall
This results in the month ending with an emphasis on Fixed Fire which equates to the sign of Leo.
This means that the element/mode relates to the sign of Leo however we know that the Sun is in Libra but by the end of September it is the solitary planet in the Cardinal Air sign.
