Astrology for Sept. 29 - October 5

 

The astrology for September 29 – October 5.   

The Moon in Capricorn launches the opening square in this 29-day cycle with emphasis on actions that put us out in the world.    Pretend you are CEO of a major conglomeration that has all the resources in the world—but you have only one employee---YOU!  What actions and directives would you give to that one employee (you)?  How does it line up with your values and goals?    Remember this all ties back to the Virgo Eclipse a week earlier.   Look at your calendar.   Look at your to-do list?  How does it make sense to your goals and values?    

 

We are lucky because this is the second Virgo lunar month that we are processing this year.    Take this second bite at the First Quarter moon and make the most out of it.  

 

In terms of planets, the only one super pronounced is Mercury.   Watch any fights around October 1 when Mercury squares Jupiter. Family and relationships in your brain and face.    What is the goal of your words?  On October 3, Mercury does a number with Chiron in Aries.    Any wounds around being authentic within relationships will be on our brain.  What we say may be clear.  Finding independence in some manner may be on our mind and in our conversations.    

Also, on October 3^rd we move into Gibbous Phase where we do a drive by of our friendships and groups and assess if we are in sync.  Do we feel uplifted by our peeps?   Do we feel we have each other’s good?   Or are there those who are in the undermining business?   Are they doing it unconsciously and need a little peck back?   Or are they doing it consciously because that’s what they are all about?   Or is this your modus operandi?    Take a moment and consider all of this as you navigate your groups/friends.  

 

 

First Quarter Moon 

Sept 29, 2025

4:53 PM PDT

 

 

First quarter: We do more actions based on the information that we just received.  Or we feel our instincts guide us on something.  We pursue again. What hurdles have popped up involving the seeds you planted on new moon?    We make another call, or we see someone. We mail something.  We stir the pot again.  This can be a time when we realize that the goals, we planted on new need more action from us, perhaps actions that involve breaking away.   Are there people who say they have our best interest in heart but fear us growing away from them?  Maybe we need to get help from others not the usual suspects.  Some independence may need to be exerted.   

 

 

Focus on:   What actions are you taking that support your place in the world?  What actions are you taking that connect to your actions from the new moon?  How can you take action that support your career?   What actions will you take if you ask your ‘inner CEO’ for advice? 

  

 

Planetary Notes:

10/1: Mercury square Jupiter (22 Cancer 34) Watch your words and your tone.  Are you being too big?  What is your goal?  Are your feelings getting in the way of the brain?   Or is it the opposite?  Does your communication not match your heart?

10/3 Mercury oppose Chiron (25 Aries 30) Independence in thinking and speech feels wounded.   Why is it so hard to speak for oneself?  

 

Gibbous Moon

October 3, 2025

11:46 pm PDT  

 

 

Gibbous:

We refine our information.  We pick and choose, we discriminate, and we organize to be ‘Virgo’ like.  We sort through details.  Have we missed something?  How are we sifting through the information?  Go back and make sure something hasn’t been neglected.  Refine our actions.   How are we perfecting our goals? 

 

Focus on:

How are you refining your groups?  How do your friends line up with your goals?   Who does what?  How are you connecting with other people and what are your like-minded goals?  

 

Planetary Notes:  

10/6: Mercury enters Scorpio.  Sharp thoughts.  Penetrating conversations abounds.  Deep research and cutting to the bone.  Uncovering the facts even if you don’t share what you know.
