September 2025 Eclipses!

September opens with Saturn retrograde in Aries since July 12, moving back into Pisces September 1. Saturn remains retrograde in Pisces until November 27 and then moves into Aries next February 13.

Saturn retrograde in Pisces has us slowing down. We will revisit the emotional and spiritual aspects of our lives. Many of us will be forced to reconcile our behavior with who we truly are in life. Many of us will find it difficult to look in the mirror due to our actions. Others of us will know to take steps to improve ourselves. This is especially true for all of us born in the last five days of any sign of the zodiac.

Saturn, finishing up in Pisces, urges us to make the most of the time until next February. Engage in activities that create wisdom and maturity. We will not experience these particular Saturn transits for another twenty-nine years. Saturn is karma and the structure of life. Do yourself a favor and set yourself on a noble path now.

Uranus turns retrograde September 5. Uranus is retrograde until February 3, 2026. Uranus will back into Taurus November 7. While Uranus is retrograde in Gemini we will leave outdated modes of thinking and communication behind. This sounds like losing an old cell phone.

Right before Uranus turns retrograde, Mercury in Virgo is ninety degrees from Uranus September 3. During the first week of September, many of us will have great and innovative ideas while other of us will feel nervous and impatient. Watch your words and know that there can be disruptions to our communication, our technology, and our travel plans. Pay attention to your surroundings and stay in your body while this wild and impulsive energy darts through our lives. Do not get waylaid by accidents, imprudent words, or hacked accounts.

The Full Moon/ total eclipse September 7, 2025 at 1:10 pm CDT at 15 Pisces

This eclipse is part of a cycle that began in 1664 and will end in 2908. This eclipse is a signpost for many of us to exert physical effort. It foreshadows accidents and violence. We last experienced an eclipse at this place in the zodiac in September 2006.

This total eclipse will be seen over half of the planet including Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, parts of western North America and parts of eastern South America. Big change is afoot for these places on the planet.

Those of us born around the 4th to 10th day of any month will be most affected by this eclipse as will those of us born with natal planets that fall between twelve and eighteen degrees of any sign.

This Eclipse And The United States - This Astrologer Fell Down A Rabbit Hole Doing Research

The United States Federal Government began on March 4, 1789, in New York, New York. This eclipse is conjunct the natal Sun, Saturn, and a planet-like body called
Sedna. Those natal planets are square Chiron, the emotional and psychological wound in the natal chart of the United States government.

The US House of Representatives first met with a quorum on April 1, 1789 while the Senate first met on April 6. In the natal chart for both bodies this total eclipse is conjunct Saturn (which denotes leadership) and
Sedna both square Chiron.

The birthday of Washington, D.C., as the U.S. capital, is generally considered July 16, 1790, the date when the Residence Act was passed by Congress. The eclipse is within two degrees of
Sedna.

The first inauguration of George Washington, the commencement of the office of the Presidency, was April 30, 1789. The eclipse is conjunct
Sedna, trine the Moon, and semi-sextile Mars in the inauguration chart

The United States Supreme Court was officially established by the Judiciary Act of 1789, signed into law on September 24, 1789. The Court first convened on February 2, 1790, in New York City. These dates mark the birth of the Supreme Court as a federal judiciary institution. This full Moon September 7 is within 3 degrees of
Sedna and square the Moon in the natal chart of the Judiciary Act.

In the February 2, 1790 chart of the first meeting of the court, this full Moon is conjunct
Sedna while semi-sextile the Sun and angling the nodes.

Even if you do not understand these technical points, know that this eclipse is strongly affecting the charts of the four branches of the United State branches of government and the capital city, Washington DC. It makes me wonder how this eclipse will affect other governments of the world.


But who is
Sedna? It is a common touchstone from the eclipse to the charts of these branches of government.

According to Astro Gold Software, “Sedna is the Inuit* Goddess of the Sea who lives in the Arctic underworld. Her myth tells of her betrayal by her father and her husband. Her resultant anger causes violent storms and turbulent seas. Sedna describes where you have the potential to feel powerless. However, she also shows where you can overcome these feelings and play your part in taking care of the planet and humanity.”

For all these reasons, this astrologer feels that this eclipse is a sign of shifts in the structure and power of the four branches of the US government. We will learn much about the people who are influential, those who are influencers, and those who have betrayed us in the months ahead. This is a big catalyst for changes as well as a signpost for a shift in leadership throughout the United States establishment and our individual lives. It is also a sign that the perfect people will begin to come forward to help we the people move to a higher level of consciousness and community.

There will be political storms and literal storms here in the United States and across the world in the months ah. The east coast is especially vulnerable. Its is very likely that powerful conscious women will lead the charge or that the plight of women will fuel the change. Prepare for floods and drama wherever you are. Perhaps Saturn, having backed into water sign Pisces, will bring forth new structures to deal with safe drinking water as well as alert systems that warn us of impending storms, tsunamis, or other water related disasters. Jupiter in Cancer adds to the potential for floods including floods of emotions.

Those who have been betrayed as Sedna was, will be organizing and taking action. Our fathers, our husbands and our leaders will have to account for their deeds. A time of reckoning is at hand. The past will come forward for reconciliation and that is karma.

We are truly seeing the wounds of the country that has led the world since World War II. Citizens of the world will deal with wounds that have not healed since that war as well as the wounds that have not healed since the mid-1860s. We the people are going to decide who we are and who we are going to be as the world moves from the industrial age to the information age. One topic will have to be management of the truth based on fact vs. conspiracy theories.

Lookout for Sedna. She is going to take back her power in the years ahead.

September 12 - 15

These days are a bit lighter as Mercury and the Sun in Virgo are sextile Jupiter. Good news!

At the same time Venus in warm-hearted Leo is sextile Mars in Libra. This is a good time to snuggle up to a Leo or Libra.

The Minor Grand Trine

Remember from last month that we are experiencing a triangle in the zodiac. The chart to the left shows what it looks like. Last month, Mars was opposite the minor grand trine which for some of us brought people taking a stance, in most cases, unreasonably.

On September 17 Mercury is opposite Saturn in the minor grand trine, bringing more statements and news that is not the best. Many of us will take a stance regarding what is said and what is true. An opposition is gaining strength.

Just after Mercury moves into Libra on September 18, it opposes Neptune. This can bring more conspiracy theories and lies. However, since Mercury is in Libra, there will be people with facts that show us what is truth and what is a fabrication. Still yet, Mercury is forming a great angle to Uranus and Pluto bringing wonderful ideas and innovation. We can expect breakthroughs as well as the exposure of bullies at this time.

Venus moves through Virgo September 19 to October 13. While Venus moving through Virgo is not considered wonderful, try telling that to a Virgo. This is a great time for Virgo as well as Taurus and Capricorn. They will look good and feel great.

All of us will do well to refine our lifestyle, our wardrobe, and our diet while Venus moves through Virgo. Do remember, though, that Venus in Virgo suggests we hold off on giving advice that was not solicited. Venus in Virgo will bring up more about health, handling heath matters, and coping with rising rates of sickness in the United States and across the planet.

Just as Venus moves into Virgo it is square Uranus in Gemini September 20. Relationships can be tense and some of us will need independence, but this can also bring in someone who is different than us. Relationships can be unpredictable, but also exciting.

The New Moon Eclipse September 21 2:54 pm CDT at 29 Virgo

Just as Mars created a kite pattern with the minor grand trine August 8-10, this new Moon eclipse does the same but at 29 degrees Virgo; one degree earlier than Mars in August.

This new Moon is intense in that it forms the same kite or diamond and is at the last degree of Virgo. The new Moon leads us towards the completion of cycles and situations that are fated. There will be calls for proper reform and healing. We will open doors to healing and transformation collectively and personally with this new Moon. The new Moon is an important portal for practical starts, clarity of purpose, and facts. Many of us will begin a new discipline and restructuring of our lives. Society will be moving into a new paradigm, but not overnight.

At the same time, Mars will be square Pluto exposing that which needs to be changed--including past destructive efforts. This is a time to tread carefully when dealing with bullies and other destructive people. Do not worry, they will be dealt with, but their voices and action will be loud now begging for a response. The response is coming. Mars square Pluto can fuel violent behavior. Stay home. Stay safe.

September is a powerful month and a decisive time for planet earth. We have two powerful eclipses that take place while Pluto is at extreme declination south as of August 28 for the first time since it last went out of bounds south on August 15, 1775. The United States was about to be born.

Remember that history repeats itself and we are being reborn collectively across the planet and in our own little corners in our own little rooms.

In Retrospect - August 23, 1775 and the Gemini English King George lll

Just eight days after Pluto went out of bounds August 15, 1775, King George III issued the Proclamation for Suppressing Rebellion and Sedition. This statement declared the American colonies to be in a state of “open and avowed rebellion,” empowering officials to suppress colonial resistance and treat supporters of the Patriot cause as traitors.

Colonists were forced to choose sides, and the sense of a shared enemy and purpose grew stronger. Colonists began seeing themselves as part of a unified cause against British rule/the red coats.

As you know, ultimately the red coats were driven out of the colonies.
In Conclusion

Many of us are deciding what direction we will take in life. We will have to do this as systems begin to fall apart and we come to take better care of ourselves locally because we must.

Do not despair. Do not be afraid. Do meditate and open your heart to the oneness of all of us. Our faith, our skin color, our gender, our sexuality, and our country of origin do not separate us as we are told by those who wish to keep the world in the old age. Most of those people are older it seems. That generation is trying to hold onto power. Their grasp will break as corrupt world leaders of days gone by disappear in the ten years to come. Over the next ten years, Pluto will be out of bounds south for a few months each year.

As I mentioned last month, you can read more about Pluto out of bounds in Rosie Finn's book, Persephone And The Revolution. (I do not get paid for this recommendation or if you buy the book)

Breakthroughs that will bring a better world are upon us. We are resetting the world stage so that we will hopefully live in harmony. Some are calling this a new dimension that will emerge. Some say our DNA is changing. None of us really know where and how we will land, but right now we can land in a place of peace of mind by connecting with our inner selves because that is where peace lives.

The image above is not an example of the new bloom. It is a public domain origami example. Click HERE to go to Smithsonian Magazine to learn more about Kelvin Wang and the new bloom pattern. Click to view them at Phys.org
A New Origami Pattern - A perfect example of our expansion of consciousness and the strides humanity is making. This popped up on my YouTube feed.

I am copying and pasting the explanation that came from my Perplexity Search.

“A new family of origami designs called bloom patterns was discovered in August 2025 by Kelvin (Zhongyuan) Wang, a student at Brigham Young University, along with professor Larry Howell and origami expert Robert J. Lang. These patterns are rotationally symmetric, flat-foldable, and developable from a single sheet, combining three valuable properties previously unseen in any origami design.

The new pattern has broad relevance for engineering: space systems, medical devices, pop-up shelters, furniture, and deployable structures are possible thanks to their compact folding and reliable deployment properties.

Bloom patterns are already being tested in space technology, where their efficient foldability and expandability solve design challenges for stowing and deploying large devices like solar panels and antennas.

Artists and designers now have access to an “uncountable infinity” of practical and beautiful new patterns, expanding the possibilities for both origami art and real-world utility.

In summary, the bloom pattern marks a major origami discovery, offering endless artistic and engineering possibilities with rotational symmetry, flat-foldability, and deployability—a combination previously unattained in origami design.”

We are truly being presented with new possibilities. Embrace them, enjoy them, and share them with your world. We are all getting better. Just look at the beautiful new origami pattern. However, we are still in a gestation period before a rebirth will occur. It is a process not a destination.

Read the summary with your calendar that shows the whole month on one page. Read through the intro and make note of the days that I point out. Mark the new Moon and the full Moon. The days between the new Moon and the full Moon are when you generally want to start something that you want to grow. Do look at that Moon void chart and take a rest on those days. I have discovered that no matter what I plan, it turns out another way on a Moon void day. Anything you try to accomplish will turn out with unexpected results.

Make note of the three days before the new Moon. People usually get anxious during these days because the phone does not ring or they feel confused or simply nothing is happen. That is because it is wind down time before the new Moon. You will usually notice that the action of life picks up once the new Moon occurs. Also note the days that planets change directions, especially Mercury retrograde.

Hopefully these suggestions will give you a bit of a start to maneuvering through life with astrology.
