The Stars This Week: "Back On Track" - September 1 - September 7, 2008

[I Have A Dream]

Back on Track

09/01/08 - 09/07/08

The Virgo Sun forms two important aspects this week, and if you can step up your game you'll be able to make significant progress. First, the Sun conjuncts serious Saturn on September 3, urging you to institute something new. Then, on September 4, the Sun forms a supportive trine to Jupiter in ambitious Capricorn, indicating that influential people are ready to help you. Watch out for the Mars square Jupiter turning direct on September 7 when you may be too zealous. If you keep your wits about you, you can make this is a great week.

September 3: Sun conjunct Saturn

With the Sun and Saturn both in Virgo, this is a hardworking conjunction! You can make great progress now, so get out a pen and paper and make a list of your skills to decide where you want to direct this formidable energy. Any conjunction marks a new beginning, and if you apply yourself with this one you'll make great strides -- so get busy!

September 4: Sun trine Jupiter

Are you involved in a worthy cause or do you have a big project that you want to move forward on? Whenever optimistic Jupiter gets close to turning direct (it will do so on September 7), it does so in a supportive trine to the Sun. The Capricorn ambitiousness of Jupiter's placement and the analytical powers of the Virgo Sun provide everything you need to advance yourself. This is a great time to form beneficial partnerships and invest in cooperative ventures.

September 7: Mars square Jupiter and Jupiter turns direct

Feisty Mars traveling through Libra invests its energy in relationships and has a lot to say about the benefits of peace. Yet diplomatic it's not! Jupiter has been retrograde since May 9 and you've probably had to contend with delays in plans. For some of you, there have been significant lifestyle changes. Now it's time to regroup and move forward. With Mars squaring Jupiter, watch out for a tendency to over-do and over-commit.

[Why Syzygy]

1. I'll claim this one.

I'm in a perfect position to make use of these energies! Talk about delays.. all summer! I've been pulling my hair.

But, I've started a new position with a non-profit connection. I certainly believe it is a "worthy cause".
