Weekly Horoscope: September 14, 2026 to September 20, 2026—Innovation Slows Down

All lunations have an “orb of influence,” which allows us to know when—and how—to work with them. For instance, last week’s mostly delightful new moon that arrived mid-week is still active now, so be sure to reference what I had mentioned for you in last week’s horoscopes because you could still find progress around all of that now.

The Energy Profile Of This Week

A mighty week is upon us! In recent months of weekly horoscopes, I have gone into details about how the slow movement of the outer planets at times brings forth incredible transformation when they align—not only for the entire human collective, but within our own individual lives, too. We have another profound aspect arriving this week—one that will be felt for weeks before and after and one we will revisit again in 2027. Neptune, the planet of imagination and spirituality, links in a sextile with Pluto, planet of intensity and transformation, on September 15. While this energy peaks at this time, we may experience immense growth and transformation around our hopes and dreams, beliefs, or spirituality, or even around our feelings for the evolution of humanity. This is a majestic aspect, one that could heighten the human collective’s vibration significantly—as well as unlock mystical, psychic, creative, or intuitive talents within people. New leaders may arise who help save and heal—or transform—the world through light or darkness.

Jupiter, our planet of good fortune and luck, will enter pre-shadow on September 16. If something, someone, a situation, or even a decision within yourself “pivots” or begins to change direction near this time, it may be tied to our Great Benefic’s retrograde phase, which arrives mid-December 2026 until mid-April 2027, but could take as long as until mid-July 2027 to sort out.

As for other astrological weather this week, September 14 will fire up our ambition, sex appeal, and confidence as the sun will sextile Mars. This energy lingers for days before and after, and is great for both our personal and professional lives. However, beware when Venus squares Pluto, bringing jealousy, manipulation, fatal attractions, and power struggles, on September 15. September 18 is also rocky and could bring conflicts, depression, or bad moods with Mercury opposite Saturn.

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

In recent times, you’ve found that you’re stepping outside of the box in how you communicate and pursue intellectual interests, Aries. Yet, with Uranus now going retrograde, the months ahead could have you re-addressing and revising some of your interests and the progress you’ve made.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

If you’ve felt like income and finances have been up and down for a while, it might bring you a sigh of relief to hear that Uranus, the planet of surprises, is now falling asleep. This means that you are less likely to experience shocking ups and downs than when our Great Awakener is direct and at full strength.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

Your life and direction have likely felt topsy-turvy in recent months, Gemini, as you are just starting to get used to the very long trend of having Uranus, the Great Awakener, orbiting in the degrees of your zodiac sign. With Uranus now in a retrograde phase, it is clear that you will be quite reflective on how far you have come and how you still want to “break out of the cage.”

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

In recent months, you’ve likely found that your dreams and intuition have been all over the place—not only bringing you sudden awakenings but also feelings you can’t quite put your finger on, Cancer. Uranus has been orbiting in your depths, but with him now in a retrograde phase, you’ll be more reflective and nostalgic.

LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)

It is quite possible that in recent months, you’ve noticed that you’re attracting unique, exotic, eccentric, and wild new people into your orbit, Leo. This is because Uranus has been spinning and throwing a party in your social sector. Yet, with Uranus now entering a retrograde phase, you may be more reflective on who you allow into your circle, regardless of how fascinating they may seem.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)

For a while now, professional matters have been all over the place, Virgo! This means that some of you could feel as if you’ve mastered your path and caught “lightning in a bottle,” while others of you have realized your ambitions are not fulfilling you. Debate your path now and in the months ahead.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)

Some of you may have noticed that your beliefs and philosophies on life have been evolving in recent times, Libra, but suddenly with Uranus now turning retrograde, you may consider ones from days long past, instead. Harness this energy to look within and understand your place in the world.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21)

Uranus has been orbiting on and off in your sector of large financial matters, Scorpio, giving you a taste of the years ahead. In truth, this energy reveals that some of you could see things becoming a bit volatile—as if striking the jackpot but then also not being sure when the debts will fill themselves up with gold. With Uranus now asleep, the shocking financial surprises should be fewer.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)

If you’ve felt as if your significant other in business or personal life has been acting strange and more chaotic than usual, this could be due to Uranus’s influence across the sky from you, Sagittarius. The Great Awakener is now falling asleep, which means the turbulence could slightly tone down.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19)

Your routines, daily affairs, employment, or health have likely been all over the place as of late, Capricorn, with Uranus touring your sector of productivity. The good news is that with our Great Awakener in a retrograde phase, you are less likely to see curveballs coming at you around all of these themes.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)

Many of you have felt as if your heart’s desires have been evolving and transforming as of late, which could be exhilarating and exciting—or a bit terrifying, Aquarius. Uranus is dancing in the heavens of your sector of passions, which may bring surprises around romance, expression, children, or hobbies.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20)

If you have felt confusion or chaos around home, family, or your domestic life in recent months, things could settle down now, Pisces. This is all due to Uranus bouncing around in a sector that ties to all of these themes. In fact, you may find yourself reflecting more around these ideas rather than making bold changes.
