You're coming off an extremely transformative, combative, breakthrough-filled, and activating eclipse season, and this week feels like an energetic hangover. You may feel zapped as you navigate the initiation of an important five-month period of change. Dive deeper into the recent eclipse season in my comprehensive workshop, Shadow & Light, available in the Lilith Astrology Vault.
Weekly Astrology Forecast
You're settling into sudden new beginnings, grappling with life upheavals, ego deaths, challenging realizations, and revelations. Whether you are ready for it or not, the cosmos is all about you stepping into your authenticity and moving forward into this new season. Let's get you armed with cosmic wisdom to walk into what's ahead with confidence!
On Sunday, Sept. 28, the Sagittarius Moon's optimism will feel the weight with a square to Saturn in Pisces retrograde. The good news is that Jupiter, the planet of luck and growth, will be supporting this through a trine to Saturn. Some may favor international travel, while others may pursue a spiritual retreat or enroll in a new course to deepen their wisdom. This is a day of expansion, journaling, or working on a book. This is especially true for Sagittarius, Cancer, and placements. Some of you may also feel like learning, writing, working on an important project, or creating a course this weekend. Sagittarius and Jupiter in exaltation both evoke scholarship, higher education, and expansive vision.
As the Moon moves into its debility in Capricorn on Monday, Sept. 29, and into Tuesday, Sept. 30, life will take on a serious tone, and you'll feel influenced to get down to work. You may experience emotional conflict or power struggles with family or authority figures. The Moon also squares both the Libra Sun and Neptune in Aries retrograde. Legal matters, contracts, and finding the truth in relationships are among the themes the collective will face as the workweek begins.
The most important planetary aspect of the week occurs on Wednesday, Oct. 1, signaling a moment of emotional growth through negotiation and conversation. The planet of communication, Mercury in Libra, is forming a square aspect with Jupiter in Cancer. While this is considered a challenging aspect, it involves Jupiter, a benefic planet in an optimal position called exaltation. You may experience positive breakthroughs in a contract, partnership, or legal situation today. This also resolves the conflict that arose during the recent Mars in Libra transit from Aug. 6 to Sept. 22 this year. For others, this may also involve family contracts, ancestry, or inheritance.
The next day, on Thursday, Oct. 2, there is the influence of a challenging connection between the Aquarius Moon, Black Moon Lilith, and Mars in Scorpio. The Moon will also be influenced by a conjunction with Pluto. Because of this, it's important to be careful of accidents, violence, surgery, and other important procedures. Mars in its home sign of Scorpio is very powerful, sexual, intense, and strategic. It can also evoke the darker aspects of life, such as conflict, anger, and aggression. Black Moon Lilith and Pluto are teaming up to bring instant removal and transformation of what is no longer necessary in order to trigger change. We will also see on a collective level heightened protests throughout this Mars in Scorpio transit as well, which will last until Tuesday, Nov. 4. It's interesting that this is election day; let's make sure we also battle fascism at the polls this year, local and state elections count, folks!
As the week comes to an end on Saturday, Oct. 4, the Pisces North Node and Virgo South Node are activated by multiple connections by the celestial goddesses, the Moon in Pisces and Venus in Virgo. When analyzing the nodes for the collective, this describes our current focus as a global society. This indicates a shift away from logic and reason toward conspiracies, fantasies, and half-truths. In your own life, you may realize that old money habits, a scarcity mindset, and hypercritical rhetoric can slow your path and the future you dream of. You're cutting all of that out today and letting go of the need to please others and to chase your dreams.
Oracle Card of the Week
This is a one-card oracle reading that describes the general collective energy for the week ahead. Remember that this is a collective reading, so take what resonates and leave what doesn't, as it's for someone else in our community. Due to the ancestral themes of this week with the Mercury and Jupiter square, I'm tapping into the power of the Secrets of the Ancestors Oracle by Abiola Abrams.
The Father of Earth card invokes the spirit of financial stability, money breakthroughs, a stable masculine figure, grounding, and generosity. A masculine ancestor is coming through to inform you that a breakthrough is on its way. You may have felt financially stagnant or unable to trust the people you work with and collaborate with.
You have been generous with others, but now it's time to conserve your own money and energy. Say no to ideas, business deals, or partnerships that are not balanced or unhelpful to your growth. It's best not to take significant financial risks or leave stable jobs at this time.
The universe is also bringing you that breakthrough you've desired for quite some time. Stay focused, have faith and patience, and continue working hard. The sooner you show gratitude for the lesson, have a good attitude on the job, the sooner the cosmic forces will remove you from situations that no longer align. This is always towards something better!
This card also indicates that your ancestors are proud of you for healing generational trauma and patterns around finances and self-worth. By taking responsibility for this wound, you have healed the generations that came before you.
