This Week Astrology: Sept 6–Sept 12, 2026
The Pisces Lunar Eclipse revealed new possibilities. This week, reflect on what’s emerged and prepare for a fresh start with Thursday’s Virgo New Moon.
The Waning Moon carries us toward the Virgo New Moon on Thursday, September 10, giving us several days to reflect, refine and make room for what comes next. The Pisces Lunar Eclipse on August 28 may have opened our eyes to possibilities we hadn’t previously considered, and the days since have helped us determine which ones deserve further attention. Virgo brings those possibilities down to earth, asking us to consider what we can improve, organize or begin doing differently.
Thursday is the week’s major turning point, with several planetary shifts accompanying the New Moon. Mercury enters Libra, bringing greater diplomacy and perspective to conversations and decisions, while Venus enters Scorpio, encouraging deeper investment in the people and priorities we value. Uranus also stations retrograde in Gemini, beginning a period of reconsidering ideas, assumptions and ways of thinking that may be ready for an update.
The Virgo New Moon itself offers an excellent opportunity to make practical changes that improve everyday life. Virgo understands that transformation doesn’t always mean a dramatic overhaul; sometimes a better routine, smarter system or more effective approach creates the greatest difference over time. Consider what you’d like to work better and where small, deliberate improvements could support the larger possibilities that have recently come into view.
Mercury closes the week with two important aspects on Saturday, trining Pluto in Aquarius while opposing Neptune in Aries. Conversations can go deeper and reveal useful info, while Neptune encourages imagination but reminds us not to confuse possibility with certainty. Stay curious, ask good questions and allow new information to refine your thinking. Your Horoscopes and Tarotscopes offer additional guidance for the weeks ahead, and a Psychic-Astrology Reading can help you determine how to make the most of your next chapter.
On Sunday, the Moon is in Cancer all day, encouraging us to slow down, recharge and give some attention to home, family and personal needs. Six emphasizes harmony, responsibility and nurturing, reinforcing the value of taking care of ourselves and the people or places that support us. With the Waning Moon continuing to wind down before Thursday’s New Moon, there’s no need to rush into the week. Use Sunday to restore your energy, tend to your surroundings and create a comfortable foundation for the days ahead. Today’s best use: recharge and get your house in order.
On Monday, the Moon remains in Cancer until 12:49pm ET, favoring a gentle start before entering Leo and shifting the mood toward confidence, creativity and fun. Seven emphasizes reflection, insight and discernment, helping us distinguish between what deserves our attention and what can be left behind as the lunar cycle winds down. Take care of personal priorities early, then give yourself permission to become more expressive and engaged as the day progresses. Today’s best use: take care of what you need, then come out and play.
On Tuesday, the Moon remains in Leo all day, bringing confidence, creativity and a desire to enjoy ourselves, while Eight emphasizes ambition, authority and achievement. Together they make Tuesday an excellent day to recognize what you do well and put those talents to productive use. With the Virgo New Moon only two days away, however, there’s also value in noticing which ambitions still excite you and which no longer deserve center stage. Today’s best use: put your best foot forward and give your talents room to shine.
On Wednesday, the Moon remains in Leo until 3:34pm ET before entering Virgo, shifting our attention from creative expression toward preparation, organization and improvement. Nine emphasizes completion, wisdom and release, making this final day before the New Moon especially useful for tying up loose ends and clearing away what has run its course. Enjoy Leo’s confidence early, then let Virgo help you identify the finishing touches that will leave you ready for tomorrow’s fresh start. Today’s best use: finish, edit and make room for something new.
On Thursday, the Moon stays in Virgo all day, and the Virgo New Moon marks a fresh beginning centered on improvement, organization and creating systems that make everyday life work better. Ten emphasizes independence, initiative and renewal, strengthening the sense that a new cycle is ready to begin. Rather than trying to reinvent everything at once, identify practical changes you can actually sustain and begin there.
Mercury enters Libra today (remaining there through September 30), shifting communication toward diplomacy, cooperation and considering different points of view. Venus also enters Scorpio (remaining there until October 25, before retrograding back into Libra; Venus is retrograde October 3–November 13), deepening our desires and encouraging greater investment in relationships and priorities that truly matter. Uranus stations retrograde in Gemini as well, beginning a period of reconsidering assumptions and looking at familiar ideas differently. With so much changing alongside the New Moon, today opens several new storylines at once. Today’s best use: plant practical seeds for the changes you want to see.
Come Friday, the Moon remains in Virgo until 7:51pm ET, keeping most of Friday productive and detail-oriented before entering Libra and shifting the evening toward connection, pleasure and balance. Eleven emphasizes intuition, awareness and inspiration, suggesting that instinct can be especially useful when deciding what needs attention and what is already good enough. Take advantage of Virgo’s efficiency to finish what needs doing, then let Libra remind you that life doesn’t have to be all work. Today’s best use: get it done, then enjoy yourself.
And on Saturday, the Moon remains in Libra all day, emphasizing cooperation, relationships and balanced decision-making, while Twelve highlights perspective, expression and expansion. Mercury in Libra trines Pluto in Aquarius, supporting substantive conversations and helping us get beneath the surface of an issue, while its opposition to Neptune in Aries can make imagination especially active but facts somewhat easier to blur. The combination can produce fascinating ideas and revealing discussions as long as we remain curious rather than assuming we already know the whole story. Listen carefully, ask questions and verify anything important before reaching conclusions. Today’s best use: have the conversation, explore the possibilities and keep an open mind.
Have an awesome week, everyone!
Working with the Virgo New Moon
The Virgo New Moon on September 10 begins the next chapter of the story that opened with the Pisces Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on August 28. The eclipse invited us to dream, imagine and remain receptive to possibilities that may not have been fully formed. Virgo now asks a different question: What can we actually do with what we’ve discovered? We don’t need to have the entire future mapped out, but we can begin giving promising possibilities structure.
Virgo understands that meaningful change is often built through small improvements repeated consistently. A better routine, more efficient system, new habit or smarter use of our time can have consequences far beyond the change itself. Rather than creating an enormous list of New Moon intentions, consider choosing a few areas where life could simply work better. What would make your days easier, healthier, more productive or more enjoyable? Start there.
Mercury enters Libra on the same day as the New Moon, helping us consider different perspectives and make thoughtful decisions, while Venus enters Scorpio encourages us to invest more deeply in what really matters. Uranus stationing retrograde in Gemini adds another layer of reconsideration: an idea we dismissed, an assumption we’ve been operating under or a plan we thought was settled may deserve another look. The New Moon doesn’t require rigid certainty. Virgo is mutable; improvement comes through paying attention, experimenting and adjusting as we learn.
As the Moon begins waxing after Thursday, put your intentions into practice and observe the results. Mercury’s trine to Pluto and opposition to Neptune on Saturday can reveal more information while reminding us to distinguish inspired possibilities from wishful thinking. Ask questions, have conversations and remain willing to revise the plan. The goal isn’t perfection. It’s finding an approach that works and can be built upon.

The Pisces Lunar Eclipse reminded us that the future sometimes begins as a feeling, inspiration or possibility before we know exactly what to do with it. The Virgo New Moon helps us take the next step: choose what has potential, give it our attention and discover what happens when inspiration meets practice. We don’t have to build the whole future at once. We just have to start building something that works.
