September Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 - July 22)
Cardinal Water. Your ruling planet is The Moon.

This is a month of transition, Cancer, as you head toward a more sober-minded assessment of the reality of your enterprises. You have lately been exploring new wrinkles in the arc of your personal development, taking a good hard look at yourself from the inside out, and all this thoughtful work has paid off in terms of increased acceptance of where you find yourself within this important cycle of self-development. Your evolving partnership dynamic forms the backdrop of what you are currently up to, as you seek a more thorough grounding � but not of the usual material variety that consensus thinking would dictate. An important balance point is reached mid-month, giving you a graceful pause before the potential intensity for you of the Fall Equinox and the month�s final week.

As the month begins, you are more outgoing than usual, but also, paradoxically, tuning up internally as well. Communication is the name of the game for you right now, but Mercury, ruler of communication, is still recovering from its recent retrograde period so at the moment, reflection and introspection are still major factors in your world. You are held to a more serious and conservative approach even as you feel the urge to launch yourself out into new ventures. Mercury is drifting toward your communication sector right now � where it will also escape its retrograde shadow � arriving on the 9th, so that after that first full week of the month will be a much better time for wholeheartedly reaching out to others, and also for actualizing any personal initiatives that you feel the impulse for. The First Quarter Moon comes along of Sunday, September 4th, and may present you with a few bumps in the road of your progress. Flair-ups are possible, as you work through conflicts between idealized versus realistic future planning or perhaps with significant partners in your life. Your communication is inspired and takes on a mystical tone these first ten days of the month, so don�t be surprised at anything coming out of your mouth or else arriving as messages from the cosmos that have a strong poetic or even prophetic feel. This particular time is great for journaling so that you can have the benefit of potentially remarkable insights throughout the remainder of this creative end-of-year time. With the Full Moon of Monday, September 12th, you reach out for balance and might even succeed in finding it. Your heart is dedicated to your future self now, and the direction that it should and will ultimately take in achieving its soul purpose, and you benefit when you acknowledge this fact. The Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, September 20th, represents a time of summing up the previous three weeks with an effort to take the lessons forward into the next cycle. Your philosophy is expanding now to match the changes in life focus that you have been participating in, and this might be a confusing time if you stop to think too hard about the conflicts with consensus thinking that you are essentially witness to. The New Moon of the following week, which comes along on Tuesday, September 27th, will take you further into your own mind and heart, emphasizing personal commitment, and therefore allows you to get much further along the intentional arc of your own personal development.
