Overview
Mars/Uranus Square
On September 18th we have the final square between Mars in Aquarius and Uranus Rx in Taurus. Previously, Mars squared Uranus on May 16th and August 1st (when Mars was Rx) so this is not new - there have been a series of tremors or surprises. This is about sudden actions or initiatives that break away from the past, and is directly tied to Uranus’ Taurus ingress (the disruption of old resources/security habits and the reveal of something new). This last square could be a breakthrough.
Sun/Mercury
September 20th brings a superior conjunction between the Sun and Mercury in Virgo. This is the “Full Moon” portion of the Sun/Mercury cycle- a conclusion or result. There should be clarity and direct facts, and these will be based on the last Sun/Mercury conjunction (August 8th, in Leo when Mercury was Rx).
Mercury enters Libra on September 21st, followed by the Sun on September 22nd. The Fall Equinox will be marked by Mercury and the Sun’s painful opposition to Chiron Rx in Aries (on September 22nd and 23rd, respectively). That moment of imbalance will trigger a painful realization/conversation. Libra is about give and take - reflections. So this may involve something unrequited, or perhaps a projected wound (their hurt reflects your vulnerability). Mercury will go on to square Saturn in Capricorn (September 23rd) which will add restrictions to what you’re trying to say. Compromise and finding common ground with someone will be very difficult, but Saturn can also indicate a very formal written commitment.
Fortunately, Mercury will also trine Mars on September 23rd, so actions will harmonize with words. There will be limits, but you can still act on what’s being said if you follow the Libra rule: harmony. Meet the other side halfway and keep it polite (the square from Saturn suggests almost painfully polite discussions).
