SEPTEMBER 2006 by Bob Mulligan

Fall begins as the Sun crosses the Equinox on the 22nd of September. We have equal hours of daylight and darkness. This is the balance point of the year as we evaluate what we have done with our spring and summer; then decide what to do with these results over the fall and winter. Adjustments are made; we are offered a chance to step up to a more functional way of being in the world. Self initiative gives way to our sense of community. This seasonal altering of perspective comes through focusing on our own personal histories and seeing the continuity between actions and results. Two eclipses provide the energy to speed up our vibration and jump into a higher vision of the world and our own lives.

The Full Moon Eclipse on September 7th at 2:43PM EDT is at the center of the sign Virgo; this massive release of energy forces us to find a method of change. We confront difficulties created through both our obsessive over-analyzing of our issues, as well as our desires to escape. This is either a time of clarity and completion or one of regression. Fearless recognition of the things that hold us back is the key to making our lives work now.

A very powerful New Moon Eclipse on September 22nd at 7:45AM EDT ushers in the end of a cycle; this is a time where we can take a "quantum leap" leaving us with new beginnings. The more conscious we are; the more our lives will change right now.

Venus (Goddess of Love and Beauty) is in a hurry and very active all month. September begins with the goddess of mating in Leo; she transits the entire sign of Virgo and enters Libra on the last day of the month. This rapid movement through three human signs symbolizes our need (and opportunity) to change perspective and expression of our love impulse.

September 1st to 3rd - This is a time of reflection. Past relationships come to mind. We look to compare our present situations with circumstances in our past. Our comparative analysis of various aspects of our love history creates a foundation for taking a leap into a higher love.

September 4th to 10th - Emotions are turbulent; the moment is pregnant with a genuinely unique opportunity to gain deeper insight; changing our fortunes now is possible but it requires a gigantic leap of faith, where it is not possible to predict the outcome before acting.

September 11th to 17th - We have an opportunity to face our weaknesses and to slow things down...We can get caught in endless debate over the best strategy to move forward. Being inclusive brings harmony.

September 18th to 24th - Winding up old projects and letting go of outdated attitudes is the key to this week. This is a time of giving up obsessive analysis and focusing on creating harmony.

September 25th to 30th - Big theories and pleasant ideas from the last few weeks take root; we find ourselves slowing down in order to implement plans. Now is a time of doing the things that must be done in order to make the thorough transition into fall.

1st - Friday - Venus Trine Pluto - Circumstances larger than our own lives keep pulling on us. Our personal self expression is challenged by the needs of the collective, but our personal romantic interests may still find an outlet. This is a great night for relaxing and feeling good.

2nd- Saturday - We feel the world moving beneath our feet, there is so much change around us. At the same time, our options for choosing a direction are suddenly limited. Take this as an opportunity to do things that need to be done and avoid waiting for change. Be pro-active.

3rd - Sunday- Mercury Opposite Uranus, Sun Contra-parallel Uranus, Mercury Sextile Jupiter, Venus Semi-sextile mars - Sparks of inspiration are difficult to channel into anything productive; but with every opportunity to act, we have the raw material for a significant breakthrough.

4th - Monday- Mercury Contra-parallel Uranus, Pluto turns direct, Sun Parallel Mercury - We set our intentions to accomplish what must be done to achieve personal satisfaction. We have some degree of resolution of difficulties. We have the energy and opportunity to make big changes but we must act now.

5th - Tuesday - Sun Opposite Uranus, Mercury Quincunx Neptune - We are awake and energized, but where to focus our attention? Choose to focus efforts based on your intuitions but avoid signing contracts or making too many irreversible decisions.

6th - Wednesday - Venus enters Virgo, Mercury Semi-sextile Saturn, Sun Sextile Jupiter, Mars Semi-square Jupiter - Our reason says go slow but our instincts push us to take new and unimaginable leaps of faith.

7th - Thursday - Our Full Moon Eclipse is at 2:43PM EDT, Mars enters Libra - A quick change of direction is possible if you have done the prerequisite "ground clearing" during the last few days. We find harmony and resolution in both the personal and professional parts of our lives.

8th - Friday - Saturn Contra-parallel Pluto - This can be an emotional and "touchy" day. It is easy to start an argument or at least feel conflicting points of view around you. Best to stay calm as others swirl around in anxiety. Take care of your own business first.

9th - Saturday - Mercury Square Pluto - Have courage as you approach every problem now. You can have a winning day by putting the important details first and staying focused on them.

10th - Sunday - Sun Quincunx Neptune - Your ideals can be challenged at a practical level. Sometimes doing nothing is just fine. Don't be afraid to just relax.

11th - Monday - Mars Sesquiquadrate Neptune, Sun Semi-sextile Saturn - A sharp turn of events leads us to a clearer understanding of our current situation. Be prepared to modify the definition of "success." Take some chances but be satisfied with limited gains.

12th - Tuesday - Mercury enters Libra, then Semi-squares Jupiter - Sometimes we know something is wrong without knowing exactly what it is...self correction is possible even without clear definition.

13th - Wednesday - Mercury Contra-parallels Mars - Sometimes enthusiasm is too exaggerated and can become a problem in itself. The trick today is to be self monitoring and less forceful in your approach to others.

14th - Thursday - Mercury Sesquiquadrate Neptune, Saturn Contra-parallel Neptune - Sometimes we get it right without belaboring anything too much, we just follow our intuitions. Residual fears can be dispelled a lot by simply acting.

15th - Friday - Mars Semi-square Saturn, Mercury Semi-squares Saturn, Mercury Parallels then Conjuncts Mars, Jupiter Contra-parallels Saturn - An eye for detail and tremendous energy makes this a very forceful day, avoid arguments by being inclusive with your plans.

16th - Saturday - Venus Opposite Uranus, Jupiter Parallel Neptune, Mercury Contra-parallel Sun, Sun Square Pluto - New ideas and new people dot the landscape today stimulating your deeper insights into human nature. Fretting over details takes the joy away from life.

17th - Sunday - Venus Contra-parallel Uranus, Sun Contra-parallel Mar - There is excitement in all our relationships today, but there is no real stability. Powerful feelings can make accomplishment or trouble; you choose how to direct the energy.

18th - Monday - It's a day of choices; do you live in the future or work in the present moment?...Achieve successes without a great deal of fanfare. There are a certain number of tasks that need to be accomplished. Just do what you need to do.

19th - Tuesday - Venus Sextile Jupiter - Rejoice in simple things...look for the grandeur of the universe in the smallest incidents.

20th - Wednesday - Mercury Quincunx Uranus, Venus Quincunx Neptune - Don't be shy about asking for what you really want; however, this can be a confusing day and it may be really hard to tell what you really want from the things that are available.

21st - Thursday - Mercury Contra-parallel Venus - Our head may be telling us something different than our heart. It is a day of clarity.

22nd - Friday- Jupiter Parallel Pluto, then a Solar Eclipse New Moon at 7:45AM EDT, Venus Semi-sextile Saturn, Sun enters Libra - We feel the elevation and exhilaration today. We all seemed to be blessed with a determination to complete tasks at hand.

23rd - Saturday - Mercury Semi-sextile Jupiter, Mercury Trine Neptune - We are able to sense things coming into our lives that are usually beyond our ability to recognize. We are able to convey subtle insights and have others understand us. Positive insights abound.

24th - Sunday - Mercury Parallel Uranus, Jupiter Square Neptune - This is the best time to explore the spiritual dimension of life. Our faith in ourselves and feelings of luck can lift our spirits. This is not a great time for making decisions that have practical consequences.

25th - Monday - Venus Contra-parallel Mars, Sun Sesquiquadrate Neptune, Sun Semi-square Jupiter, Venus Square Pluto, Mercury Sextile Saturn - Our personal lives can have challenges as we are at a loss to know which way to turn. Luck is with us if we are willing to keep trying and willing to compromise. We only lose if we give up.

26th - Tuesday - Mars Quincunx Uranus - Both problems and solutions can be unexpected. Knowing how to share your resources without depleting your energy is the trick to a happy day.

27th - Wednesday - Mercury Sextile Pluto - We can see the big picture. Giving and receiving advice is our currency for making friends and improving business ties.

28th - Thursday - Sun Contra -parallel Venus - Our social lives become a vehicle for straightening out the details of our professional lives. Take time for people and their various concerns.

29th - Friday - Sun Semi-square Saturn, Mercury Sesquiquadrate Uranus - Take a break; think through things in your life. See if you can't complete regular tasks and still have some time left over for just thinking about your life.

30th - Saturday - Venus enters Libra - A lightness is in the air and we breathe easier. See if your plans can't accommodate other people's needs. This is a great time to set some new goals.
