In fact, with the sun hanging out in value-driven Virgo until Sept. 22, use the first three weeks of the month to get clear on your current projects and aspirations.

Mercury retrograde will slide back into Virgo on Sept. 23, where it will stay until it ends its retrograde on Oct. 2. Take things slowly this month. Focus on one thing at a time. To end the month on a lighter note, the sun will enter lighthearted Libra on Sept. 22, setting the stage for the sensual Sept. 25 Libra new moon.
