All twelve signs on September 13, 2026
Aries — 7th house
The Moon moving through your seventh house tends to make the day about somebody else's terms. A Libra Moon postpones the confrontation and keeps the receipt. For Aries that lands in partners, opponents and anyone you deal with one to one. Momentum comes from where you feel established while your ruler occupies the house of roots and family. Sextiles like this one between the Sun and Mars are opportunities in the plain sense: conditional on somebody taking them. Counted from Aries that runs between your 6th and 4th houses. The trine between Mercury and Uranus removes resistance, and removed resistance is only useful with something to push. Counted from Aries that runs between your 7th and 3rd houses. Each evening the crescent stands a little further from the Sun and sets a little later than the night before. That part of the cycle is passing through your 7th house.
Love. Venus is in your eighth house today, which places affection near shared money, debt, intimacy and what is not said out loud. Work. Mercury moving through your seventh house makes partners, opponents and anyone you deal with one to one the subject that gets worked out.
Taurus — 6th house
A lunar pass through your sixth house tends to measure the day in completed tasks rather than in anything more memorable. A Libra Moon postpones the confrontation and keeps the receipt. For Taurus that lands in work, routine, health and the small maintenance of a life. A ruler in the seventh house is often taken for dependence, when it is nearer to a habit of testing a decision against somebody before acting on it. With the Sun and Mars sixty degrees apart, cooperation between the two is available rather than automatic. Counted from Taurus that runs between your 5th and 3rd houses. Mercury trine Uranus is the smoothest angle there is, which also makes it easy to waste. Counted from Taurus that runs between your 6th and 2nd houses. Between one and seven days past new, the Moon shows less than half its disc and grows nightly. That part of the cycle is passing through your 6th house.
Love. Venus is in your seventh house today, which places affection near partners, opponents and anyone you deal with one to one. Work. With Mercury in your sixth house, the useful conversation is about work, routine, health and the small maintenance of a life.
Gemini — 5th house
The Moon in your fifth house raises the appetite for risk of the enjoyable kind rather than the expensive kind. Feeling in Libra wants a second party to confirm it is reasonable. For Gemini that lands in play, romance, children and anything you make for its own sake. Your chart ruler in the fifth house makes expression, romance or risk the live thread. Mars at sixty degrees from the Sun is a mild aspect, easy to overlook precisely because it creates no friction at all. Counted from Gemini that runs between your 4th and 2nd houses. The trine holding Mercury and Uranus is comfortable, and comfortable aspects pass unnoticed rather more often than they are used. Counted from Gemini that runs between your 5th and 1st houses. Each evening the crescent stands a little further from the Sun and sets a little later than the night before. That part of the cycle is passing through your 5th house.
Love. Venus in your sixth house connects the day's warmth to work, routine, health and the small maintenance of a life. Work. Mercury in your fifth house puts the day's thinking on play, romance, children and anything you make for its own sake.
Cancer — 4th house
With the Moon at the foot of your chart, the day works better close to home than out in it. A Libra Moon postpones the confrontation and keeps the receipt. For Cancer that lands in home, family, roots and private ground. With the ruler of your sign at the base of the chart, initiative starts from familiar ground rather than from open ground. Where the Sun and Mars are sextile, the connection between their concerns is available on request rather than imposed. Counted from Cancer that runs between your 3rd and 1st houses. Mercury and Uranus at a hundred and twenty degrees make their two areas mutually available. Counted from Cancer that runs between your 4th and 12th houses. The crescent Moon puts the month in its opening stretch. That part of the cycle is passing through your 4th house.
Love. Venus is in your fifth house today, which places affection near play, romance, children and anything you make for its own sake. Work. With Mercury in your fourth house, the useful conversation is about home, family, roots and private ground.
Leo — 3rd house
With the Moon in your house of communication, what gets said carries more feeling than the words on their own would suggest. A Libra Moon checks the room's temperature before setting its own. For Leo that lands in conversation, short trips, siblings and daily information. Your ruling planet in the second house ties the day's initiative to money and material footing. The sixty-degree gap between the Sun and Mars makes their two areas compatible without doing any of the work for anyone. Counted from Leo that runs between your 2nd and 12th houses. Nothing obstructs Mercury and Uranus at this angle, though an unobstructed path is only worth something with a journey already begun. Counted from Leo that runs between your 3rd and 11th houses. Growth at this stage is measurable but slow, which is a fair description of the whole first week. That part of the cycle is passing through your 3rd house.

Virgo — 2nd house
A lunar pass through your second house tends to make security a matter of feeling rather than of arithmetic. A Libra Moon is agreeable in the moment and precise about it later. For Virgo that lands in money, possessions and what you consider yours. The second house is read as being about money, though with your ruler there it works more as a demand for solid ground under a decision. The Sun sextile Mars is sixty degrees, an angle that offers rather than compels, and an offer can be left on the table. Counted from Virgo that runs between your 1st and 11th houses. At a hundred and twenty degrees Mercury and Uranus are far enough apart to stop interfering and close enough to still count. Counted from Virgo that runs between your 2nd and 10th houses. Each evening the crescent stands a little further from the Sun and sets a little later than the night before. That part of the cycle is passing through your 2nd house.

Libra — 1st house
Whatever mood arrives while the Moon is in your first house tends to be visible to other people before you have decided to show it. With the Moon in Libra the feeling waits to see what the other person feels. For Libra that lands in your own bearing, appearance and the first move. The second house is read as being about money, though with your ruler there it works more as a demand for solid ground under a decision. Two signs apart, the Sun and Mars fall in compatible elements, and compatibility reads as ease rather than as pressure. Counted from Libra that runs between your 12th and 10th houses. Mercury trine Uranus is the smoothest angle there is, which also makes it easy to waste. Counted from Libra that runs between your 1st and 9th houses.

Love. With Venus moving through your second house, what you are drawn to sits close to money, possessions and what you consider yours. Work. With Mercury in your first house, the useful conversation is about your own bearing, appearance and the first move.
Scorpio — 12th house
Tolerance for noise, crowds and being asked things runs lower than usual over these few days, while quieter and slower work goes surprisingly well. The Moon is in fall in Libra, which the tradition reads as feeling deferring to judgement. For Scorpio that lands in rest, solitude, what is behind you and what runs unattended.

Mercury trine Uranus is the smoothest angle there is, which also makes it easy to waste. Counted from Scorpio that runs between your 12th and 8th houses.

For Capricorn that lands in career, public standing and what you are known for. With your ruler at the base of the chart, private ground is where the day's real work sits. The Sun sextile Mars is an easy angle, but an easy angle only helps if something is already in motion. Counted from Capricorn that runs between your 9th and 7th houses. Ease is the whole content of Mercury trine Uranus, and ease describes the conditions of a day, not its results. Counted from Capricorn that runs between your 10th and 6th houses.
