September 2021 Horoscopes: Mercury Retrograde in Libra

Kaitlyn De Leonardis

In the midst of Virgo season, we’re all feeling a bit more focused and determined to make our lives more efficient. Last month, Uranus went retrograde and inspired us all to take the reins when it comes to the progress we wish to see in our lives. The new moon in Virgo on September 7 will give us a fresh dose of logic and reason. This is the only month of the year with all the outer planets in retrograde and a pivotal point in our lives. Below, we’ll explore what your September 2021 horoscopes have in store.

The big news this month is the final Mercury retrograde of 2021 which officially starts on September 27. Taking place in air sign Libra, the major theme is finding the mental balance between our relationships with others and our personal aspirations. A defining aspect of this retrograde is Mercury square Pluto, which we’ll first encounter on September 21 when Mercury is still in its shadow. Thanks to Mercury’s backward motion, this aspect happens all over again the following week. 

A square is a challenging astrological aspect that presents us with an obstacle. They can be pretty difficult to deal with, but on the other end is a shiny new lesson that’s waiting to be learned. Ultimately, the transformation we will all go through during this particular retrograde is imperative to our future success. 

September 2021 Horoscopes Important Dates:

New Moon in Virgo, September 7: A great time to implement a new daily routine. How can you make more productive use of your time?

Venus Transit Scorpio, September 10: How deep is your love? The next few weeks present the perfect atmosphere for getting to know someone on a more intimate level. 

Mars Transit Libra, September 15: Expect more passion in partnerships of all kinds. From business to romance, expect a little more fire when dealing with others. 

Sun Transit Libra, September 22: The Sun’s annual move into Libra will have us all thinking more about the important people in our lives. Be sure to let them know you care in any way you see fit. 

Mercury Retrograde in Libra, September 27 – October 18: Anything in our lives that is off-kilter will need to be straightened out. We’ll be striving to find the right balance in all areas of our lives.

Mars is also involved, so make sure you voice this to the person you came with. They can help ease the awkwardness.

On September 7, the new moon in Virgo hits refresh on your close personal relationships. If you’re single, this is a prime day for a first date.

Try not to get too caught up in the future. What’s meant to be will always find a way. 

On September 20, Mercury aligns with Jupiter and this is a good day to write out work or lifestyle goals to really make use of Jupiter’s expansive energy.

Leo  (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Has the money grind got you down? It appears so with Mars opposite Neptune until September 3. It feels like your goal is nowhere in sight. On September 4, a serious conversation will take place.
