The month starts with you doing a lot of work. You may be craving stability, order and possibly some recognition, so you’re working your buns off. You have a lot of irons in the fire which is great but can also be exhausting. Try to remember to stop and come up for air once in a while. This Full Moon and New Moon are about being open and vulnerable with ourselves and others.

It’s the fall equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the spring equinox in the Southern Hemisphere. At the equinoxes, the Sun crosses the earth’s celestial equator giving us an equal amount of day and night everywhere on the earth. In years past, it typically was a time of celebration; when the harvest was gathered and everyone stored foodstuffs to get ready for the winter months. It is a reminder to us here in the north, that the winter solstice is just around the corner and that the days will become shorter. After all the fun and excitement and the go-go-go of summer, its now time to slow down and take it easy.

The Full Moon is in Pisces on Sept. 13 at 11:33 p.m. With this Full Moon, you might find that you’re feeling sensitive and picking up on others’ emotions more than usual. You may want to step away from everyone for a bit to ground yourself. There could be a decision you’ve been putting off which is causing you anxiety. Let go and trust that the Universe has your back. This show of faith will bring movement and possible rewards. Another facet of the Pisces Full Moon is around getting out and having some fun. All work and no play make for a dull life. You are here to celebrate and embrace all that the world has to offer!

The New Moon is in Libra on Sept. 28 at 1:26 p.m. It’s about relationships. The bigger question here is, “How is your relationship with yourself?” The New Moon opposes Chiron, the wounded healer, in Aries. How can you be yourself while still maintaining relationships with others? Are you sacrificing yourself in your relationships? Of course, the polar opposite of this is to focus solely on yourself with no thought for anyone else. There’s a middle ground where you can truly be yourself and say what you need without being unkind to others. Being in a healthy relationship means having healthy boundaries where each person is allowed to be themselves.

The times below are listed in Central Daylight Time.
