ARIES (21 March-19 April)

Hello Aries and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023

Embracing change can be just as rejuvenating as taking a break, and with a new moon aligning harmoniously with Uranus, expect positive transformations ahead. A fresh daily routine and a shifted perspective will instigate the changes you've been craving. It's possible that you've found yourself in a bit of a rut or trapped in a monotonous cycle, so it's time to make an active effort to identify where and how you can infuse more joy and purpose into your life. Remember, life shouldn't solely revolve around toil and no fun. Additionally, consider making adjustments to your lifestyle and exploring novel solutions for lingering health issues, promoting overall well-being in mind, body, and spirit.


TAURUS (20 April-20 May)

Hello Taurus and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

A cosmic tranquility prevails during this period. It doesn't mean all challenges vanish, and every day is filled with sunshine, but it does imply that there's less interference disrupting your plans and activities. Consequently, this could be an opportune moment to address a sensitive issue or engage with someone you're interested in collaborating with, whether in business or dance! On Friday, Mercury resumes its forward motion, accelerating the pace of life and, in the coming week, bringing to light any errors or overlooked information. Seize the moment while conditions are favorable.

GEMINI (21 May-20 June)

Hello Gemini and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

The cosmic currents are gently favoring you. In simpler terms, there are no significant planetary barriers obstructing your path to happiness and progress. In fact, with Mercury resuming its forward motion on Friday, any delays or misunderstandings will soon become a thing of the past. However, the powerful alignments in August may still leave a few residual issues to address. Nevertheless, these celestial influences will work in your favor. As the Sun moves toward its opposition with Neptune next week, if you find yourself puzzled by someone's actions or the best approach to a situation, tackle it head-on this week. It's a time for unraveling mysteries.


CANCER (21 June-22 July)

Hello Cancer and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

Mercury's recent retrograde journey may have posed challenges in reaching your destinations and smooth communication, but rest assured, travel and interactions are about to become significantly more manageable. This upcoming Friday, Mercury returns to its regular course, and in the following week, you might have the opportunity to reschedule appointments and rectify misunderstandings. However, there's a Neptune-related challenge on the horizon, indicating that there could be some confusion or a discrepancy between your perception of a situation and its reality. Now is an ideal moment to double-check that everything essential is in its proper place. Take actions that serve your best interests.


LEO (23 July-22 August)

Hello Leo and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

Just two weeks ago, a full moon activated the financial sector of your astrological chart, potentially elevating a longstanding issue to a critical point. It's possible that an agreement fell apart or you encountered a significant financial turning point. If that's the case, anticipate fresh opportunities for income and problem resolution to emerge. Regardless of the challenges you faced in late August, this is a time for a fresh start. On Friday, Mercury realigns, aiding you in patching up relationships, finding answers to lingering questions, and even if you're feeling a bit hesitant, it's advisable to embrace a bold and unconventional approach to achieving your goals and desires. New pathways to potential await.


VIRGO (23 August - 22 September)

Hello Virgo and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

Just as the seasons are in transition, you too are poised for a fresh start. A new moon in your zodiac sign inspires you to release the past and any unrealized possibilities, redirecting your focus towards the promising new horizons on the horizon. Thanks to the recent Mercury retrograde period, you might have felt stuck or encountered numerous exasperating delays and false starts. However, this pattern shifts starting Friday, enabling you to create a plan and follow it through to fruition. Life may not be flawless, but it's certainly improving. There is an end is in sight.


LIBRA (23 September-23 October)

Hello Libra and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

You continue to dwell in the realm of shadows and mysteries, which might account for your sense of being excluded or not quite grounded. Nevertheless, the twelfth house exerts significant influence on your horoscope, and by dedicating more time to tranquility, increasing your sleep, and engaging in meditation, your subconscious mind will unveil those crucial aspects of your well-being that have gone unnoticed. Trust your instincts, delve into your dreams. On Friday, Mercury returns to its regular functioning, and while this won't immediately bring everything into perfect alignment, as September progresses, you'll find renewed strength and clarity. It's a moment to embrace solitude and retreat.


SCORPIO (24 October-21 November)

Hello Scorpio and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

Scorpios are inherently resilient and excel when self-reliant. However, this is the moment to embrace sharing, collaboration, and a broader perspective. The new moon graces your eleventh astrological house, igniting the spark of new friendships and alliances. It also fuels fresh ventures and innovative approaches to enhance existing business endeavors and entrepreneurial partnerships. Despite the hindrances and distractions brought by Mercury's retrograde since late August, that phase is now behind you. From this point onward, you should be able to craft a plan and see it come to fruition. You are moving onward this week at last.

​​​​SAGITTARIUS (22 November-21 December)

Hello Sagittarius and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

New moons usher in fresh chapters, and some are more significant than others, just like the upcoming Friday's new moon. This celestial event unfolds in the domain of aspirations and life direction, serving as a beacon for a forthcoming opportunity within the next two weeks that could positively influence your future. Despite any recent setbacks or disheartening outcomes you may have encountered, given your inherently optimistic and adventurous spirit, it's time to relegate those disappointments to the past. A new path is unfolding, whether you actively create it or it comes to you. Focus on what lies ahead, not what's behind.

CAPRICORN (22 December-19 January)

Hello Capricorn and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

Life is finally regaining its rhythm. Mercury is back in direct motion, and in the coming days, those who have been absent may reappear, while sluggish situations begin to gather momentum. There's a possibility that a missed message or overlooked detail could briefly pose a challenge, but with effective communication and practical thinking, there's no issue that can't be resolved. This Friday's new moon graces the realm of distant horizons, hinting at a journey—whether in terms of miles traveled or new experiences gained—before mid-October. This journey promises to unveil fresh perspectives for you. You are finding your feet again.

AQUARIUS (20 January-18 February)

Hello Aquarius and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

Has September felt like a slow trip? It's really no surprise if it has. With as many as six planets in retrograde, various reasons may have led to delays and misconnections. Fortunately, Mercury shifts into direct motion on Friday, marking the beginning of a new cycle along with a fresh lunar phase. Financial matters take center stage, with new and unexpected opportunities potentially arising, such as upcoming contracts, offers, and settlements. For now, it's wise to keep your options open, as it may take until the end of the month for possibilities to transform into realities. A shift in the forecast is underway.

PISCES (19 February-20 March)

Hello Pisces and welcome to your free horoscope this week...

Monday, September 11th, to Sunday, September 17th, 2023.

If you find yourself feeling ensnared, troubled, and perplexed, there's a valid reason for it. Friday's new moon opposes Neptune, creating a somewhat hazy divide between reality and truth. What you perceive may not necessarily reflect the actual facts. This new moon, occurring in the seventh astrological house, marks the beginning of a fresh chapter for relationships in general, and it particularly influences romantic matters. Furthermore, with Mercury returning to direct motion, a recent disturbance may be ripe for resolution or, at the very least, open for discussion. It's important to avoid letting your hopes or fears lead you astray. Stay grounded in reality.
