Aries
Aries
The late summer skies grow dark as the moon wanes, but although we see less and less of her each night, it doesn’t take away from her splendor or magick. Follow her example, Aries, as the energy from the previous week continues into this one, it’s time to regain your balance and open your awareness. You are the fiery first sign of the Zodiac cycle and have a natural tendency to jump into things head first, giving your all and racing to the finish line- which isn’t a bad thing! That being said, it’s only when we ease up on our pace that we have time to see and appreciate the things around us- and you have many blessings in your life that could use some appreciation. Let the waning moon help to soothe the fire within you and allow you to take this week one mindful day at a time.
Tarot Card : Temperance, Reversed
Taurus
Taurus
There is a sense of loss and decrease as the week begins, Taurus, as you hold a waning moon in your hands and Jupiter, the planet of luck and prosperity, suddenly goes retrograde in your sign on Monday. Jupiter joins Uranus, the planet of change and innovation, who are now both in retrograde in your realm. With the waning moon growing dimmer and two planets in reverse, now is not a good time for you to gamble or take big risks. You may wish to hold off on making new business plans, designing travel itineraries, or submitting applications. Instead, your solid work ethic and natural dedication as an earth sign will be helpful in something you are already working on. If there is a project or task that is already underway, consider devoting your focus there.
Tarot Card : Eight of Pentacles, Reversed
Gemini
Gemini
When things aren’t making sense and you aren’t finding the answers you need, it’s time to get a new perspective, Gemini. Doing the same thing in the same way over and over again is not what your creative mind needs- as an air sign, you thrive when you feel interested and engaged. To overcome boredom, frustration, and (especially with your ruling planet Mercury in retrograde) potential conflict with those around you, it’s time to take a step back- or even a step away entirely, such as physically removing yourself from the situation. Perhaps it’s time for a little vacation? Know that the moon is yours in the middle of the week- in your hands, she will become a lovely Last Quarter Moon in Gemini on Wednesday night. Use her energy of balance to lay any emotional or mental turbulence you are carrying to rest. By her light, you can find your clarity and harmony again.
Tarot Card : The Hanged Man, Reversed
Cancer
Cancer
There is something untasteful beneath the surface that has been simmering, Cancer, and this week it looks ready to reach a boil. A presence in your life that you had hoped would be a positive influence is currently causing more harm than good. This may be a person, particularly someone (of any gender) who displays strong masculine and fire energy, or a habit that you stick to. Find ways to ease the spark of aggression before it can become a flame- rest assured that with your ruling planet, the moon, coming to support you from Friday through Sunday, you’ll have her gentle, healing light on your side. As a waning crescent moon, she encourages you to not be afraid to take things slow and to pull back when you feel overwhelmed. Often times confrontation can be avoided with kindness.
Tarot Card : King of Wands, Reversed
Leo
Leo
Things are improving slowly but steadily for you, Leo- although it’s going to take some mindfulness on your part to see it. This week, you’ve got a lot on your mind and your thoughts keep honing back in on the things that aren’t “good enough” or the things in your life that you feel that you lack. It’s great to have goals, but only when those goals help to motivate you in positive ways- ruminating on mistakes or “have nots” is not the same as working towards your dreams. And you do have some very nice dreams, don’t you? Take some time to look deep inside and sort things through- the waning crescent moon is coming into your sign on Sunday, at the tail end of the week. She is encouraging you to leave behind any empty desires and regrets so that you can move forward with your head held high, focused on the path ahead. Venus is a reassuring pat on your back- with the planet of beauty direct in your sign, she is ready to help the proud Lion shine wonderfully once again- if only you allow her to.

Virgo
Virgo
The sun is quite at home in your sign now, Virgo, and you’ve had some time to get used to the boost of fiery energy he brings. You’ve also had time to adjust to Mercury’s shenanigans, ever since the planet of communication went rogue in your sign. This week, your dedicated nature and the organized energies of Virgo season have helped you to wrangle things into as much of a routine as you can and most things are falling into line. So take a step back now- after being so focused on the details, you may find that you’ve lost sight of the bigger picture. Why are you doing the things that you do? What drove you to follow this career or life path in the first place? This week, you will benefit most from reaffirming your values and reconnecting with your reasons for being. Whether it is deep inside you, or from an outside source you treasure- you can find meaning in the things that bring you joy this week.
Tarot Card : Four of Cups
Libra
Libra
Go on, Libra- this week is yours! With powerful Mars direct in your sign, energy is flowing quickly and strongly for you this week. Fire and water are combining in surprising yet beneficial ways, and you have the ability to take action that aligns with your emotional needs. Use your inner voice of guidance and keep to your moral compass- the way forward is open and clear, and the signs are there pointing you forward if you take the time to see them- but ultimately it falls to you whether or not to take that big first step forward. This week, in order to have your voice heard, you will need to speak up. And once you’ve made up your mind about something, act quickly without dawdling.

Scorpio
Scorpio
Keep reaching, Scorpio- you’re getting there! You’ve been working long and hard on a passion of yours and although it sometimes feels like success is right on the tip of your nose, you still have a ways to go before you can consider this a finished success. Rest assured that the work you are putting in now will yield results in the future, but seeds can’t just be planted- they must also be nurtured if they are to become a garden that sustains you. And smetimes in order to do something right, you have to do it yourself. Rely first on your own abilities and skills this week- trust in your ambitious nature and know that, one way or another, you will see the end of this phase.
Tarot Card : Four of Wands, Reversed
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Hang on Sagittarius! Jupiter, the planet of prosperity and chance, is going into retrograde this Monday. Although it is happening over in the realm of Taurus, it’s likely that you’ll still feel a shift in your levels of luck as your ruling planet appears to move backward in the sky. Now is not a good time to gamble or take big risks, and you ought to reconsider before putting your neck on the line for anyone else. On the other hand, relationships are important for you this week- when faced with petty arguments or little disagreements, try to rein in your fiery nature and instead use your sharp mind before you retaliate. Being the bigger person means knowing when to forgive (but not necessarily forget). The compassion and kindness you share with others will remain in their memories and may help you further down the line.
Tarot Card : Five of Swords, Reversed
Capricorn
Capricorn
The things you worked your way through last week have paved a solid path for you this week, Capricorn! Here in the season of Virgo, your fellow Earth sign, things are solidifying and progress is being made- for you, this is most especially in terms of relationships and partnerships. Bonds that you have recently forged (or recently rekindled) are growing stronger this week- you are becoming closer to the people who mean the most to you. The influence of retrograde Pluto, planet of transformation, is helping to hold back the hands of time and give you more opportunities. With stability and chances abound, now is a good time to show your appreciation and love to those you treasure. You might go on a date, spend time with co-workers, make a nice dinner for your family, visit relatives, or even just do something that makes someone else smile.
Tarot Card : Two of Cups
Aquarius
Aquarius
Take a deep breath, Aquarius- you really need a breather. The situations you’ve been dealing with lately are rapidly becoming too heavy for anyone to bear- and you’re carrying more than just your own problems, aren’t you? As ruler of the Eleventh Astrological House of community, it’s natural for you to want to help others, but this week it is reaching a breaking point. The warning signals are becoming emergency sirens- you need to pull back and focus on yourself for a bit. This isn’t a punishment by any means, it’s actually a form of reward. You deserve your “me time”- you’re a smart, creative, and amazing person with a really generous heart! You’ve more than earned time to focus yourself and your needs. Find ways to get away from the hustle and bustle this week- you might go for a walk, spend time in your garden, take a long bath, or even go on a little trip somewhere just to get away. Your mind, body, and soul will thank you for taking care of yourself.
Tarot Card : The Hermit
Pisces
Pisces
Something important from one month ago is coming back to you this week, Pisces, and it may not be what you are hoping for. A previous lesson you thought you had overcome is reappearing to test you- so dig in, be strong, and stick to your decisions. With orderly Saturn and Neptune, your ruling planet, both in retrograde in your sign, it may sometimes feel like the greater forces are against you, but this isn’t true- you have survived so much during your time on this planet, and everything you have overcome has helped to shape you into the amazing person that you are today. Higher forces are on your side and help, sometimes in surprising forms, is out there for you if you reach for it. You are not trapped. Choose your labels carefully this week and remember the power that you hold- you do have control, you do have light. You can overcome this.
