General for Week Commencing: Monday 07 September 2026

	Aries	Monday 07 September 2026	Mar 21 - Apr 19
A week that is set to host two planetary shifts, a New Moon and another planet turning retrograde, makes a chance to go into the new week centred all the more important. The Moon not only begins the week in your home and family sector, something that allows you to focus on the basics, but aligned with Mars, just as he is working to make things happen and to get things done. If there are personal or domestic chores on your ‘to do’ list, schedule them for earlier in the week. Meanwhile, the busiest part of the week all happens on Thursday and Friday. It will begin with Venus’ departure from your relationship sector and return to your financial sector, where she will swap out her planet of love for her planet of money hat. It is less than 12 hours later that Mercury’s return to your relationship sector will see him take her place, leaving the Sun just before it aligns with the Moon to create Friday’s New Moon in your work sector. It is in between the two that Uranus will turn retrograde in your communication sector, adding another string to the communication bow.

	Taurus	Monday 07 September 2026	Apr 20 - May 20
While beginning the week with the Moon in your communication sector is always an advantage and a chance to have the communication lines open from the start, this could be a game changer. The Moon is not only in your communication sector when Mars moves into his final three weeks here on Monday, but as they align, this is going to add fuel to his war on communication roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined. What makes the timing significant is that it is just three days later that Venus’ return to your relationship sector on Thursday will begin the first planetary activity on the relationship front this year. Continuing the communication theme is Mercury, with the planet of communication working to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page until leaving a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart on Friday. This is just before the Sun and Moon align here to create a New Moon. This will be a good time to put some guardrails in place when it comes to a balance between work and play, with things continuing to evolve on the income, work and career fronts.

	Gemini	Monday 07 September 2026	May 21 - Jun 21
While the Moon will leave your income sector on Tuesday, beginning the week here is anything but a one hit wonder. While something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger, it is an alignment with Mars, just as he moves into his final three weeks here on Monday, that is the game changer. As well as adding fuel to Mars’ warrior and competitive spirit, this will give you a better sense of where to channel his war on income roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined. While on its own this is an advantage, the real advantage will be when Venus returns to your work sector on Thursday to begin the first planetary activity on the job front since last year. Until then, heart of the working week or not, Venus will be working to make the most of her final days in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart. At the same time, in the lead up to Friday’s New Moon in your home and family sector and his departure on the same day, Mercury is giving you everything needed to keep your head in the game, ideas on the table and the communication lines open.

	Cancer	Monday 07 September 2026	Jun 22 - Jul 22
The Moon’s return to Cancer each month is always a valuable chance to check in, get your bearings and become more emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware. When you begin the week with the Moon here, even though it will leave on Tuesday, this is going to give you an intuitive edge, making sure you are on the right track from the start. However, this isn’t the only advantage, with the Moon’s alignment with Mars here coming just as he moves into his final three weeks in Cancer on Monday. This will both add fuel to his passions, drive, warrior and competitive spirit and give you a better sense of where to channel them. This will also be the Moon’s first visit since the dwarf planet Ceres returned, giving you your first real read on her first deep dive into your personal needs and priorities in four years. In what will be another busy week, that is important. Meanwhile, making sense of all the recent work/life balance reminders will be Venus’ return to a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart on Thursday.

	Leo	Monday 07 September 2026	Jul 23 - Aug 22
Beginning the week with the Moon in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart might put a speed bump at the start of the week, encouraging you to pause before throwing yourself into things, this will work to your advantage. While in the lead up to Friday’s New Moon in your income sector, there is support from the planets on the job and career fronts, they are all in retrograde motion and encouraging you to pace yourself. The real incentive comes from the Moon’s alignment with Mars, who in his final three weeks in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart and just 21 days away from returning to Leo, is encouraging you to make time to recharge your batteries. Meanwhile, while Venus will leave your communication sector on Thursday, Mercury’s return less than 12 hours later will see the planets of love and communication work together to keep the communication lines open. This will free Venus to return to your home and family sector, where she will begin the first planetary activity on the home front this year.

	Virgo	Monday 07 September 2026	Aug 23 - Sep 22
While the Moon left your career sector over the weekend, this was always going to be a chance to move into the new week with your professional instincts sharp from the start. That would be the case in any week, but this is not just any week. As well as a chance to move into Uranus’ final days in direct motion here and prepare for his retrograde turn on Friday with your finger on the pulse and ear to the ground, into Venus’ final days in your income sector before leaving on Thursday. With Venus’ friendly aspect to the North Node in your career sector set to peak just before she leaves, this comes just as you have reached a pivotal week across the income, work and career fronts. As the Moon connected with all of them over the weekend, you will know how to play things. Meanwhile, within the space of less than 12 hours, Venus and Mercury will work to ensure the communication lines remain open. This is thanks to Venus’ return to your communication sector on Friday, less than 12 hours before Mercury, the planet of communication is set to leave Virgo. Meanwhile, Friday’s New Moon in Virgo makes this a chance for new beginnings.

	Libra	Monday 07 September 2026	Sep 23 - Oct 23
While beginning the week with the Moon in your career sector is a chance to move into the new working week with your professional instincts sharp from the start, this is anything but a short term advantage. It is the Moon’s alignment with Mars on Monday, just as the warrior planet moves into his final three weeks here that will both add fuel to his warrior and competitive spirit and give you a better sense of where to channel this. While the Moon will leave on Tuesday, this is the professional shot in the arm that Venus can exploit when she not only returns to your income sector on Tuesday, but to begin the first planetary activity on the income side of the financial fence since last year and the start of the most lucrative months of 2026. While Chiron, the planet of wisdom, knowledge and healing won’t retrograde back out of your financial sector until next week, this is the point when the balance of power of the financial year itself shifts to the income side of the financial fence, where it will stay.

	Scorpio	Monday 07 September 2026	Oct 24 - Nov 21
While things will take a busier turn in the heart of the working week, Monday’s adventurous lunar vibes are going to get your attention from the start. While the Moon will leave on Tuesday, a sense of adventure and spontaneity is going to remain, making having the right work/life balance from the start a priority. While these adventurous lunar vibes are fleeting, the Moon’s alignment with Mars here on Monday comes just as the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos moves into his final three weeks here. This is going to add fuel to Mars’ passion for adventure and a hunger for life’s richer experiences, just as he is ready to declare war on old excuses, roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined. Even though from Tuesday to Thursday the Moon will be whipping things up on the job and career fronts, Mars will be on a roll by then. Meanwhile, for you, the event of the week is Venus’ return to Scorpio on Thursday. The first planetary activity in Scorpio since last year is a sign of new beginnings.

	Sagittarius	Monday 07 September 2026	Nov 22 - Dec 21
Beginning the week with the Moon in your financial sector is more than just a chance to have your financial instincts sharp from the start. On the one hand, the Moon’s alignment with Mars just as he moves into his final three weeks here on Monday will both add fuel to his financial passions and fighting spirit and give you a better sense of where to channel this. On the other hand, this first visit since the dwarf planet Ceres returned to begin her first deep dive into your financial needs and priorities in four years is a chance to look beyond the money to what you are really fighting for. The Moon will leave on Tuesday, but the advantage will continue. Meanwhile, in the heart of not just the working week but in Mercury’s final days in your career sector and in the lead up to Friday’s New Moon, the Moon will do more than just move through an adventurous part of your chart. This will see the Moon connect with planets in a way that is going to energise the whole playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence. In a pivotal week on the income, work and career fronts, it is all about knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off.

	Capricorn	Monday 07 September 2026	Dec 22 - Jan 19
While there could be some personal and/or relationship tension on Monday, it will not only have passed by Tuesday, but on both fronts this will be empowering. Any tension is caused by a clash between the Moon in your relationship sector and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment in Capricorn. This is both the Moon’s first visit since Juno retrograded back in last month with a chance to revisit your personal intentions and resolutions and the last before Mars leaves your relationship sector. As the Moon aligns with Mars and clashes with Juno, this will put some pressure on a balance between your own and your relationship needs. While Juno will use this as motivation to define your intentions and resolutions, moving into his final three weeks in your relationship sector, this will give Mars a better sense of where to channel his passions and a need to take action. By Tuesday, activity on the playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence will help to restore your personal confidence, while by Thursday your relationships will have the support of Venus, the planet of love.

	Aquarius	Monday 07 September 2026	Jan 20 - Feb 18
While the Moon is only passing through and will leave your work sector on Tuesday, this is set to be a short and long term advantage. In the short term, this is a chance to move into the new working week with your finger on the pulse and ear to the ground from the start. At the same time, it is just as Mars moves into his final three weeks in your work sector on Monday that an alignment with the Moon will both add fuel to his work passions, fighting and competitive spirit and give you a better sense of where to channel this. This first visit since the dwarf planet Ceres' return is also going to give you a better read on her deep dive into your needs and priorities on the job front and especially when it comes to job satisfaction and a sense of purpose. This is also giving work and job matters the kind of shot in the arm that Venus can exploit when she returns to your career sector on Thursday. Until then, Venus will be working to make the most of her final days in an adventurous part of your chart.

	Pisces	Monday 07 September 2026	Feb 19 - Mar 20
While the Moon will not only move through your work sector from Tuesday to Thursday, but in the heart of the working week is going to energise things on the income and job fronts, it is clear from the start that the days of all work and no play are over. While the Moon will leave a playful and creative part of your chart on Tuesday, its alignment with Mars, just as he moves into his final three weeks here on Monday, is going to add fuel to his romantic and creative passions and fighting spirit and give you a better sense of where to channel this. The Moon will move on, but Mars will not only stay on but on Thursday, Venus will return to begin the first planetary activity in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery since last year. With continuous planetary activity here and right across the playful, creative and adventurous side of life’s fence for the rest of the year, but at the same time major forces remaining in play on the income and job fronts, it is all about knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off.
