9/20/26: Getting Bolder with the Full Moon in Aries

It’s going to be a deliciously complicated week in the heavens…Astro Darlings, hold onto your cosmic hats—because this is one of those weeks when the sky apparently decided that subtlety was overrated. Mars charges into Leo like he owns the place. Then Mercury dives into probing Scorpio and promptly finds himself at the center of a fierce T-square with said Mars and transformative Pluto in Aquarius. Meanwhile, Venus turns retrograde in magnetic Scorpio, the Sun in lovely Libra comes face-to-face with Saturn, and the Moon spends a good stretch of time in Gemini—ruled by that very same Mercury stirring the pot in Scorpio. Yes. All of this. At once. This is not a week for sleepwalking through your life. The astrology is loud, layered, provocative, and potentially revealing. Relationships, desire, power, choices, conversations, money, commitments—and those delicious little truths you've been trying not to look at—could all come knocking. Want to untangle this celestial spaghetti? Join me on The Golden Astrologer Podcast while I show you what’s actually happening underneath all the cosmic commotion and how you can work with these energies instead of simply waiting for them to pass. So press play, pour yourself something warm, and come sit with me for a little while.  

This week is the start of Libra season, as the equinox is upon us and the Sun enters the sign of the scales. The Sun is the focal point of a dynamic with the outer planets Neptune and Pluto and asks us to get clear about our one to one relationships in all areas of our lives. This is part of a Full Moon in Aries that conjoins Neptune and makes a bold aspect to Jupiter, helping us to open our hearts, get creative and stop playing small. Discomfort may be the price of expansion, but it's worth it in the end. All this and so much more on The Golden Astrologer Podcast!

Neptune and Pluto connect smoothly as they did months ago, reminding us to align, trust intuition and reclaim our power. Then retrograde asteroid Chiron returns to Aries for the next several months, asking us to remain in our authenticity. And Mercury opposes Saturn, where we take the leap of faith over fear in our decisions. All this and so much more on The Golden Astrologer Podcast!

Virgo season is here! This week's Lunar Eclipse is the 2nd and last eclipse of this season. It's a Full Moon in Pisces and creates a strong connection with Mercury, planet of the mind and communication and Uranus, planet of innovation and the unexpected. This is an unusual set of astrology circumstances asking us to pay attention and choose what fulfills us now. Intuition is strong and leading us to clarity. Mercury will enter its own sign of Virgo this week and challenge Uranus as part of the eclipse pattern, so there will be surprises in store. Aim for a breakthrough this week! Tune in to The Golden Astrologer Podcast and hear all about it!

The time between two eclipses is always called the eclipse corridor. This week is that central week where there are no eclipses, but we're headed towards the 2nd one. It's an intense feeling we're moving through this week as the Sun finishes it's month long stay in home sign of Leo and connects with the South Node of Destiny at week's end. Simultaneously, Venus will oppose Saturn and we'd do best in sitting with any feelings of lack or need of gratification. Early in the week, Mars will challenge Neptune, asking us to listen to our gut before we act. And Venus will speak sweetly to Jupiter, opening our hearts.

This is the week of the Total Solar Eclipse in the sign of Leo. This is a South Node Eclipse and Deb speaks about what to expect from this. Meanwhile, Mercury has also entered Leo and will join the Moon making the rounds of touching the outer planets right before the eclipse. Mars enters Cancer, where it enhances our desire to nurture our loved ones and protect them at all costs. And Venus in her own sign of Libra challenges dreamy Neptune in a duality that could bring romance or illusion. All this and so much more on The Golden Astrologer Podcast!

This week marks the beginning of a much larger cosmic story as Venus enters her home sign of Libra, opening the first chapter of a journey that will unfold throughout the rest of the year. As the Goddess of Love, Beauty, Relationships, and Values returns to her own sign, she begins preparing for her upcoming retrograde between Libra and Scorpio this October—a profound period of reflection, realignment, and transformation that will include three powerful encounters with Pluto. The seeds we plant now may reveal their deeper meaning in the months ahead. Meanwhile, Chiron, newly settled in Taurus, begins its retrograde journey, inviting us to revisit the healing work that has unfolded since its arrival in this earthy sign. As Chiron gradually retraces its steps back toward Aries, we are given an opportunity to integrate old lessons with new wisdom, discovering how our deepest wounds can become our greatest source of strength and compassion. Adding a vibrant spark to the week, Mercury leaves the emotional waters of Cancer and enters the radiant fire of Leo, inspiring courageous conversations, creative ideas, heartfelt expression, and the confidence to speak from the center of who we truly are. Join me on this week's episode of The Golden Astrologer Podcast as we explore the beginning of these important planetary stories and discover how they are preparing us for the months ahead.

The Cosmic Basket continues to illuminate our path this week as the radiant Sun in its home sign of Leo activates this extraordinary planetary pattern. Through its dynamic relationship with Pluto and harmonious connections to Uranus and Neptune, the Sun shines a brilliant light on our personal growth, creative potential, and the profound transformation unfolding both within and around us. Midweek, the Sun joins Jupiter in their annual celebration of optimism, abundance, and possibility, encouraging us to expand our vision and embrace the next chapter with courage and confidence. As the week unfolds, a powerful Full Moon in Aquarius brings the Sun and Jupiter into opposition with the Moon and Pluto, creating an extraordinary opportunity to set intentions, release old limitations, and step more fully into the person you are becoming. This Full Moon also serves as the gateway to the upcoming eclipse season, as the Nodes of Destiny have shifted into Aquarius and Leo, signaling the beginning of a new evolutionary story that will unfold over the months ahead. Join me on this week's episode of The Golden Astrologer Podcast as we explore this remarkable cosmic turning point and discover how to consciously work with the transformative energies guiding us toward the future.
