Weekly Horoscope: September 7, 2026 to September 13, 2026—Building Slowly But Surely
Day by day, we are stepping away from eclipse season—but in truth, we are still in it “officially” until September 27, 2026. Eclipse season is profound, powerful, and often life-changing—especially if a solar eclipse or lunar eclipse is hitting a key placement in one’s natal chart, but also when it is highly activated from other planetary astrological aspects. Be aware that sometimes eclipses deliver news a month before or after—and may take months to fully sort themselves out.
The Energy Profile Of This Week
This week, we have many important transitions in the skies above. First and most importantly, we watch the moon. A new moon in Virgo appears on September 10, so in the week that follows it, there may be more of a focus on productivity, efficiency, “decluttering our lives,” employment, routines, staff, or even physical health. For those out of work or seeking to take on more projects, this new moon is rather sweet and could open doors for you—so be sure to have your resume ready and hit the ground running once the lunation arrives.
September 10 is a very busy day, due to many planetary movements—but not astrological aspects. On this day, Mercury, the planet of the mind, enters Libra until September 30. Mercury in Libra will increase our need for socializing and partnership and can aid in negotiations, unions, and connections. Our minds will be more focused on working together rather than going solo. Venus, our planet of relationships, submerges herself within the dark underworld and the spinning depths of Scorpio on this day until October 25—a very long time. Venus spends a lot of time in Scorpio in the months ahead due to her retrograde, which will weaken her and cause us to face karmic lessons around relationships, intimacy, trust, and vulnerability. While she is direct, we may find ourselves more possessive, manipulative, or “all-or-nothing” around love and beauty. Last to mention on this date is that Uranus, the planet of chaos but also liberation, turns retrograde and will remain in a backward phase until February 8, 2027—flying through the heavens of Gemini. This means we will review, revise, and reflect on growth and change around Gemini themes: communications, technology, travel, social media, and beyond.
As for astrological weather for the week, note that Mercury brings a lot of action on both September 12 and 13. Mercury will trine Pluto, which adds power and intensity to our thoughts and can be used to persuade others. Mercury will then oppose Neptune, which will bring illusion, delusion, and confusion. Last, be aware that Mercury will trine Uranus, which will inspire our spontaneity, heighten our intuition, and get us eager to step outside of our comfort zones and socialize.

This lunation highlights your sector of productivity, which means that in the weeks ahead it is likely you’ll be juggling many irons in the fire. If unemployed, look for a new job. If you’d like to make improvements to fitness or health, now would be a great time to consult with a specialist.
TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)
This week’s new moon could have you rolling in the flowers, plucking them one by one for a bouquet for your beloved, Taurus. In fact, it’s the key lunation this year that opens doors to your heart’s desires and could stimulate romantic magic for singles. If you are an artist, it’s time to get creative!
GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)
It’s time to turn your attention to your domestic life, Gemini. Home, family, or real estate could see a change in the many days ahead. This is due to the new moon’s strength, which emphasizes your roots. If you’d like to move, renovate, or redecorate, the stars are aligned.
CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)
Harness the new moon’s energy to invigorate your mind, Cancer. Your communication skills and intellectual pursuits could captivate you—and others—at this time. On a different note, you may find yourself spurred to travel, so set out on the road!
LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)
Income, possessions, and resources are spotlit with this week’s new moon, Leo—so it’s time to think “gold.” Consider your finances—both income and expenses—and if you’d like to monetize more, debate ways to do so. A raise, new job offer, or side hustle could emerge.
VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)
Your cosmic reboot is upon you, Virgo! It’s time to step through the open doors and race into your next chapter. With this new moon falling in your zodiac sign, you may find that a gift appears for you. But remember: the key to harnessing the cosmos is to be intentional with what you’d like to manifest and set forth with action.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)
Even though you’re starting to feel the cosmos tilt more in your favor, Libra, it’s time to also take a step back, reflect, and assess your plans for the year ahead. This week’s new moon is all about privacy, healing, closure, and recharging—so give yourself some grace and chill out if you can.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21)
This week’s new moon is setting off the fireworks in your social sector, Scorpio, so dust off your favorite outfit and prepare to mix and mingle! This is a wonderful moment to meet new people, get closer with your acquaintances, or even consider dating someone new if single.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)
Take your bow and aim for the stars, Sagittarius! This week’s new moon is all about professional pursuits and ambitions. A door may open to you around work, authority, or recognition, but you must also be strategic on how you climb the ladder now.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19)
Even though you often tend to be a homebody, this week’s new moon is encouraging you to venture toward new horizons—personally, professionally, spiritually, and beyond. In fact, you may be more focused on your beliefs. Travel would greatly stimulate your expansion now.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)
Embrace this week as a time to really think about large financial matters, Aquarius. For instance, you could focus on paying off debts, applying for a new credit line, or hearing news about a bonus or inheritance. Consult with an advisor.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20)
One of the most important weeks of the year for key relationships is upon you, Pisces. Significant unions—personally, professionally, in teamwork, or in collaboration—would be excellent to focus upon after the new moon. For instance, you may sign a contract, make long-term plans, or find a professional who can match you in a way that you need.
