Capricorn

The month begins with the Full Moon shining brightly in the 2nd house of finance and the material world. It is ideal for reflecting on what is important to you in this area and perhaps renewing strategies.

This emotional "weight" will be lifted as Virgo enters the season, offering Capricorns inspiration and freshness. End-of-summer adventures, being more flexible and being guided by your enthusiasm - all of this is more than welcome! The end of the month also promises some excitement in the professional sector, with Mars passing through.

The movements of Venus, the planet of romance, align with that of your planet, Uranus, and may bring some new values in the emotional world. You can and should take advantage of the new moon in Leo to reflect on this and potentially be inspired from a new perspective for this sector of your life. On the 28th, your planet Uranus begins retrograde motion, the right phase to process life's twists and turns of late.

Pisces

Start the month with a Full Moon ritual that gets you away from work and the day-to-day. A season in Leo puts the focus on your productivity, but Venus retrograde could throw up questions about how and in what you're investing valuable time and energy. The New Moon on the 16th promises to give you clarity to draw your conclusions. With the Sun's arrival in Virgo, the focus will be (even more) on your relationships, but Mercury Retrograde could destabilize the situation. Remember to control your sensitivity and try not to take everything so personally. The end of the month, with the Full Moon in your sign, is the perfect endpoint - no one has more power than you to run your life and everyone (including yourself) better be sure of that!
