How will Saturn judge us
This week, Saturn quietly slips back to Pisces (September 1, 2025, 1:06 pm PDT, as of February 13, 2026) It is the first time since stepping into Aries on May 24. It took five months on Pisces in about five months and it can be imagined that we have temporarily returned to our previous work to clean up some completed projects, but proved that some work has been done.
What is this job that Saturn in Pisces requires you to do? Saturn wants us to be a stronger, more self-reliant, better version of ourselves, and his logo gives a specific job description. Saturn’s step towards Pisces reminds us that everything we do professionally or personally must bring about nursing spirit, helpfulness, altruism. Our progress in these qualities is how Saturn will judge us. Expect to conduct a final exam to test your kindness and sacrificial ability toward the greater good.
Extraordinary every day
Staring at ordinary things through a microscope. Remove from a larger background, something like pollen or cells taken from the cheeks becomes art. You lose the bigger picture when zooming in, but it’s not surprising to see such details on its individual components?
Mercury is the perceived planet, and when it enters Virgo, it wears a magnifying glass (September 2, 2025, 6:23 pm PDT). While in the sign of this detail (until September 18), we take a closer look and taste the inconsistency that makes the heartbeat unexpectedly beautiful. Every day becomes extraordinary.
Accept this story
From our earliest experiences, covering all the milestones today, we tell a story about ourselves. We choose to highlight the experience in this story – most importantly, we make our own way as hero, victim, Victor or loser.
As Mercury clashes with Uranus in the storytelling (September 3, 2025, 00:40 pdt, 1º27 Virgo and Gemini), it’s time to change this story. Mercury is in Virgo, so be sure to proofread the story carefully. But, resist the urge to criticize. We all have flaws, but being a true protagonist means embracing your strengths and treating your flaws with compassion.
Bon Vivant
when Mars and Jupiter The last time we got together in the conjunction of Gemini on August 14, 2024, they were two Bon Vivant There is a lot to talk about and lots of places. This week (September 4, 2025, 7:59 pm PDT, at 18ºBribra and Cancer), they Arrival the first square aspect of the cycle This starts with this union, and this time are two main signs, they try their best to launch new projects in the fires of Saturn and Neptune, and also on the main signs of Aries.
The Mars-Jupiter combination last summer marked the beginning of a journey full of new ideas and fresh scopes, and it is not the time to give up on conversations. But even Bon Vivant You need to know when to go home for the night and re-recognize your home and family.
Jupiter will find this domestic pause so delicious that it is difficult to move again. But Mars will grow very quickly, so believe that he pushes that comfortable Jupiter and us back into nightlife.
The fantasy of freedom
Uranus is a planet of freedom, unpredictability and rebellion, turning retrograde this week (September 5, 2025, 9:51 pm PDT, 1º27’gemini). A retrograde transit planet sometimes seems to be opposite to its usual pattern – in the case of Uranus, it seems to have toes and walk with the crowd.
But the key phrase here is “look.” Retrograde movement is a fantasy, and so is this reversal of this trait. When a planet is retrograde, we focus it inward and see our own guidance on its issues. What are the rules that control our inner lives? Which rule do we think we need to break?
By February 3, 2026, when Uranus turns to a direct turn again, it will be reversed to 27º27’Taurus, the territory last visited in late May. The changes that occurred at that time will be questioned in the coming months. Do you hope you don’t give up now? You may be able to reclaim it when Uranus turns directly in the new year.
The flow of inspiration
One morning, I was at the first mass in years at 7:30 am. The service was postponed and the priest at 7:40 has not arrived yet. A modest layman stood up and offered the etiquette of leading what I thought was called (she spoke softly and there was an echo in the church). A few of us quipped our consent, and she started with the opening response and the reading of the day.
About ten minutes later, just in time for the gospel, my father appeared, breathless and apologized for waiting. Ironically, his interpretation of the day’s reading means that the person who preaches the word is not as important as the word itself. For someone like me who just wanted to start my day with some exciting thoughts in a quiet environment, that quiet layman is really good.
Full Moon/lunar Eclipse in Pisces (September 7, 2025, 11:09 am PDT, Pisces 15.22), this is a symbol of spiritual pursuit, belonging to Sabia symbol, 16 doubles: The process of inspiration. Eclipses famously brings change – sometimes, change requires us to accompany us as we move. Often, this flexibility opens the door to inspiration.
In this full moon/lunar eclipse, you may find yourself needing to stand up and provide services, which will be your belief and word, not your authority. The words of inspiration that humbly provide you with authority or not will be helpful and even inspiring.
