🌌 The Astrology of the Week

September 21–27 brings a noticeable shift in energy.

We begin the week with Mercury in Libra sextile Jupiter in Leo, an aspect associated in astrology with broader thinking, communication and the exchange of ideas. Mercury reaches the exact sextile with Jupiter on September 21.

Then on September 22, the Sun enters Libra, beginning Libra Season and coinciding with the September equinox. This shifts attention toward balance, cooperation, relationships, fairness and the way we relate to other people.

The biggest lunar event arrives on September 26: the Full Moon in Aries at 3°37′ Aries. The Sun is simultaneously at 3°37′ Libra, creating the classic Aries–Libra axis of self versus partnership.

For Lagos, Nigeria, the Full Moon occurs at 5:49 PM on Saturday, September 26.

This makes the week especially useful for asking:

Where do I need to honor myself without forgetting the people around me?
