Aries September 2026

After being pulled this way and that for two months, you’re master of your own ship again. There are a number of roadblocks, all retrograde planets in your sign, but August 27, with the lunar eclipse full Moon in your twelfth house, you leave the Land of Frustration behind, with its demanding natives, and you fly forward. Career seeds you’ve planted, with little return so far, now pop open. Money too, very suddenly. Funds held up? Let’s just say karmic ransom is paid. You will be most supported by new habits and routines which you develop now.

This September put it in the direction where you want your life to go. This is where your fortune doubles, even triples, at this time. No mushy sentimentality, no co-dependency issues. Wait until October to put time back into love and relationships. Even give family a break for now.

You’ve learned a lot about how to handle a stressful schedule. Trust yourself, Aries. You’ve had many of these in your lifetime. It goes more smoothly now with the Sun, Mercury, and a new Virgo Moon all supporting your sixth house of daily schedules.

Some of you may be fearing ruin; but no worries. Aries are always entrepreneurs, and new ideas and creations are your bag.

Physically, however, there is a clear warning not to overexert yourself. Your sixth house planets are advising you to be pragmatic about your health and energy. Lessons still to be learned here. Listen to your body this September and October, especially when you’re working on deadline.

The link between your work and your health is pretty wild… Both, for good reason, ruled by your sixth house. Where most of the celestial power is now. Listen to the planets.

Your sixth house, traditionally ruled by conscientious Virgo, covers these areas of your life:

Work, work, work

Income from your work

Your daily life and routine

Your health

Food and diets

Regular exercise

Habits, good and bad (bad: smoking; good: meditation)

How you take care of yourself

Zee domestic

Everyday activity

Little animals and pets

Service and duty

Assistants and people who work for you

Work is absolutely top of the list, and you must push yourself – continue to push yourself – as you never have before, because the upcoming beginnings and breakthroughs in your career as a result of you just showing up and doing your job leave me breathless.

Aries, you are magnificent. Please don’t doubt yourself. Even though you’ve been getting discouraged lately — missing your usual jazzy fire and snap — you’ve so much to look forward to that it boggles the mind.

As September winds down, you reach a conclusion, you resolve a matter that has been in some debate.  Very profitable ideas appear at this time. Creatives, you get amazing visions. Either for that novel, or start-up business plan, or other masterpiece. Time to go hog wild, and possibly in collaboration with another or others.

The best news of the month? Finances look up and you are looking at some new arrangements involving your income. Enjoy — and have a fun time laughing all the way to the bank.

The only warning is for the end of August. Definitely a darkest before dawn time. You might feel like you’re losing your mind with the full Pisces Moon culminating in your unconscious (twelfth house) the last week of August. Thursday, August 27 to be exact.

In reality, you’ll experience incredible dreams or visions. This signals the beginning of your healing. Your demons (worries and panic in your subconscious) will be put to rest. It won’t feel exactly comfortable but you’ll soon be in a better place about it.

By September 10, you have a solution.  That’s what Virgo (Moon) does: Fix things. Make all better.

Develop your signature specialty, hire an assistant, agent, or magical go-between to bring you more clients. Or better relationships with the ones you have.

More gets taken out of your hands as it gets more legal. This, ironically, is a great relief. You hand the greater responsibility – perhaps the meting out of the justice part – over to someone else completely. You lucky ones will get to travel, get out of Dodge, take classes and work on opening your mind to the nth degree. Lessons of the world, of other worlds, other languages even, will consume you.

You make a fortune from work this year and also anything which brings a subject you love closer to people.

Keep diligently being healthy so you can do all you have to do. It is important to spread the word about your business, particularly as a freelancer, artist or entrepreneur. It seems you want to go higher, farther, and to break out of the status quo you are in, career-wise. And you will. It just takes some work.

Now, Aries, I know patience is not your strong point. You don’t even like waiting for a red light to change to green.

You are the boldest, bravest, most daring sign of the zodiac. No dispute there.

But haven’t you suffered enough? From things that happened from, dare I suggest, past feelings of impatience?

I can only say this because I have been advising you, through this site, for 24 years.

Pallas retrograde offers you wisdom from your life and experience in your sign. Such things are hard-earned for powerful gods and goddesses. But so worth it.

Give a new work arrangement a chance, sweet Aries. It’s a chance for a miracle.
