Dear Friends,
Writing the astro-planner for September (see below), I was reminded of all the love energy given and received during this last Leo cycle where we were called upon to accept ourselves for who we are.
If we wilted under criticism, crumbled because we were without a partner or ally, or floundered because we failed, we were reminded to honor and love ourselves. How can we ever hope to shine our true light and radiate our authentic power unless we find out what keeps us from it?
September energy is terrifically practical. Build it, stew it, dye it, make it. The sky’s the limit!
May the Sun shine upon you,
Catherine
ASTRO-PLANNER FOR SEPTEMBER 2018
September 5-6: there’s a lot going on so mark your calendars! Saturn moves direct at 2 degrees of Capricorn. You will feel a shift in energy Sept 2-5 as things seem to slow down and reorder themselves. Make time for walking bare feet, restocking the pantry, and settling your accounts. You are beginning to prepare for the seasonal shift which happens on the Equinox. These adjustments take time and the focus is on allowing yourself a bit of extra time for everything. Want to break that habit of always arriving five minutes late? Now is the time! As Saturn picks up speed, ambitions will ignite and we’ll feel motivated once again.
Mercury leaves fiery Leo for Virgo at this time; wonderful energy for back to school! Mercury will be in Virgo until Sept 23. Make use of this time period (Sept 5-23) for organizing and planning ahead. Your minds will be sharp and speedy, and you’ll have practical energy at your fingertips to implement your thoughts. A good time to get any derailed projects back on track. Avoid the blues by staying in the present moment as much as you are able
September 8-9: Good pruning days; regrowth will be slow
September 9: New Moon at 17 degrees of Virgo. Set your intentions for the month. Those who are born August 22 to September 23, this is a particularly special New Moon in which the energies may be positively invoked for your year ahead. Set time aside for the simple ritual of writing down or drawing your hopes and goals for the year
September 10: Venus leaves her home in diplomatic Libra and sails into the watery zone of Scorpio, where she prefers her own company to that of others. Watch out for relationship challenges on the days she hooks up with Uranus – together they can intensify the atmosphere: Sept 12-15 and Oct 29-31 are key dates here. What’s your role? To channel this energy into creative expression, artistic daring and exploratory actions which open new horizons!
September 13-14: Best planting days; plant for height
September 18: Mars hooks up with Uranus – forward moving energy – just do it!
September 22: Autumnal Equinox – Sun moves into Libra. Feel the seasons shift and adjust your diet accordingly. Happy birthday Libra!
September 23: good planting day; plant for overall growth
September 24: Full Moon at 2 degrees of Aries. This is an unusual Aries Full Moon in that she connects with old crone Saturn. We are dealing with inhibitions and restrictions here; a warrior who wishes to break free but feels as if there’s nowhere to go. My best bet for Sunday 23 and Monday 24 is a well-planned hike or a serious “work around the house” kind of day. Avoid fast travel and saying yes to things on the spur of the moment – the energy is too volatile right now

The HeavenScent oils are easier than ever to purchase.
I received wonderful feedback the other day from a well-known astrologer: the Pisces oil had an immediate and positive effect on his intuition. Try it for yourself!!
