Horoscope, Leo September Horoscope

You are tired of having to go through stressful financial situations, and in March, when you
faced your last one, you vowed to be sure this wouldn't happen again. But this month money
again appears to be a big problem, which leads me to wonder if someone you are depending on
might be to blame.




 




Of course, it's always possible that you will make a math error, causing a cascading number of
checks to bounce. Ugh, what a nightmare. You can avoid this by double-checking your figures
and by calling the bank's automated service each day to be sure that your checks are going
through. However, if you've put your trust in someone who owes you money but who is proving
over and over again that he or she can't be trusted, you will have to put certain controls in place
or take certain actions.




 




No matter what the reason that money seems to be in such short supply or has become a big
concern this month (and in a minute I will give you specific days to watch as the key problematic
days), you will have to find a quick fix for the short term. That of course means putting your
hands on more money. In that regard - finding a way to get a raise - your timing may be perfect.
I am getting ahead of myself, so let's go through the month methodically.




 




The first aspect will arrive September 3, when Saturn will conjunct the Sun. This is a rather
sobering aspect and you may feel things more strongly than most because you are ruled by the
Sun. Saturn, the planet that teaches us life lessons, will meet up with the Sun in your second



                                                                                              1 / 11

house of earned income. This is a restrictive influence, so you may feel you are running out of
cash because of an unanticipated expense or because money you were promised (or expected)
just isn't showing up.




 




Don't panic. The very next day, September 4, you may hit on an idea or get an unexpected
breakthrough concerning money, much to your surprise! Jupiter, the lucky planet, will be in
perfect angle to the Sun, your ruler, on that day, which could literally SAVE the day. This will be
one of your best days of the month - possibly of the season - so use it to your full advantage.
Plan a meeting or an interview, present a proposal, or try to bring in new business.




 




Although it's clear you have woes about money in September, the first week brims with
opportunity. The new moon that appeared at the end of last month, August 30, was actually
quite wonderful for you. Its energy will be very strong as you begin September, for
approximately ten days. That's another reason to act quickly before that energy fades. (A new
moon's energy is highest the moment it appears and then gets gradually weaker as you move
away from that new moon.)




 




Ask for a raise on September 4, or if you feel your present employer won't give you one, see if
there are other positions that you might be able to interview for. Admittedly, Saturn in your
income house suggests that it will be hard for you to get a large raise approved, but even a
small one may be better than standing still. If you get better company benefits, such as a solid
health insurance policy, it may be just as good as earning more cash. Or, if your new job would
be closer to you, thereby requiring less of a commute, you may save on gas. Again, you'd save
money, so add those considerations to the mix, too.




 



                                                                                              2 / 11
Leo September 2008 Horoscope - Leo Monthly Horoscope,Leo Horoscope, Leo September 2008 Horoscop




If you change jobs, realize it would likely be a lateral move, and that might be OK if you don't
like your job or if you have a monster for a boss and will go insane if you don't get out of the
asylum soon! If you had your heart set on getting a step up to a better job, then wait until
November when a special offer may surface - just the right position may come up. It'll be a very
special time for you.




 




Now focusing back on September, I am sorry to say that mid-month holds some very difficult
aspects, so put on your helmet and armor, dear Leo. Money will again be the focus, and should
you need any additional reasons to find a better way to approach financial contingencies in your
life, the events at this tense full moon may convince you to find them.




 




Your first notice that something is up will come when the Sun and Uranus will be at odds, on
Friday, September 12. This is sure to be a very hard day when you may feel like you
unexpectedly touched a live wire. News will come at you quite unexpectedly, in a way you'd
never imagine. You can't quite prepare for this, other than to keep your schedule light so you
are able to focus quickly on what's at hand.




 




You won't see the end to the situation for a few days, because the full moon, September 15, will
also oppose Uranus, again involving two financial houses. The crisis that surfaces will be odd,
surprising, or weird in some way, and will require a resourceful, quick answer, so you'll have
very little time to think. A full moon is operative for four days after it occurs.




 




                                                                                            3 / 11

There are many ways this may play out. You may have expected a certain amount of
commission, college financial aid, or a scholarship that won't be forthcoming, or you may find
that you won't receive the amount of money you had anticipated from an insurance company,
from an ex for child support, or from an inheritance. If you are in business, a client may go
bankrupt and not be able to pay you. You may find out you owe the government taxes, or you
may suddenly have an expensive home, car, or dental expense. Watch for identity theft, too.
Just looking at this list I have just made for you is quite depressing. Of course, these are only
possible examples, and I would love to be wrong about this.




 




Things like this happen, and when they do, you need to scramble to come up with a plan B. You
are not alone, dear Leo. There are many others who will be in precisely the same predicament
in September.




 




I have thought about why the universe asks us to cope with these types of situations, and I can
only guess that the universe asks us to become more resourceful and creative about managing
resources. It doesn't matter if you created the problem or if you are simply an innocent
bystander to this situation, the result will be the same - you will need to find a more permanent
fix.




 




For every difficult situation there is always an answer. If you recall, on September 8, both
Jupiter and Pluto will turn direct. Because both planets are essentially financial planets, things
will look up for you. Both planets will help you either get a new job, work side jobs, or earn
overtime. If you are self-employed, you can now be quite effective in bringing in new business.




 




                                                                                               4 / 11

Both planets will orbit in sure, strong shape for many months to come before they slide into
weak retrograde action again. (You have until April 4 for Pluto and June 15 for Jupiter.) In many
ways you will be looking at a very different picture.




 




Speaking of retrograde planets, Mercury will go retrograde this month from September 24 to
October 15. You will feel the slowdown earlier, however, so that's another reason to get busy
quickly in September - you don't want to run into a Mercury retrograde period because you will
meet many delays.




 




It would be very unwise to sign a contract in mid-to-late September, for it's clear other elements
will soon enter the equation (like another offer, perhaps?) and later you would regret being so
hasty. If you can't sign your papers September 4, then wait until October 18 or later to sign. You
will be glad you waited.




 




Keep your health up to par all month, as the aspects on September 3 and 12 and during the full
moon period September 13-19 will be very jarring and exhausting. Also during these periods,
you may be worried about the health or well-being of a prominent person in your life - a parent,
spouse, lover, or boss. This person may be not feeling well or be very tense, but will appreciate
your care and wise advice.




 




One nice influence that will go on in the background will involve quick, short travel. Mars, now in
Libra, is currently warming your third house of nearby travel. Along with Mars, Venus will be



                                                                                              5 / 11

there too, as will Mercury. The Sun will join this trio from September 22 onward, so that'll be a
lot of energy to be circulating in this part of your chart. It looks like you will be able to get out of
town, perhaps as a result of the kind invitations you receive from friends or relatives. You'll
enjoy those outings very much, too. With Venus there, I would say so!




 




The new moon, September 29, will help push this travel trend even more, and it's a very sweet
influence, falling in the compatible sign of Libra. Mars will send a missive to Pluto near this date,
another indication that you will find a way to be on the road - hopefully it will be an affordable
way! You may see family or view out-of-town real estate that you are interested in leasing,
buying, selling, or fixing up. This seems the most likely reason you would travel, but of course,
this could be travel for business or romance, too. With Mercury in retrograde, you would likely
go back to a place you've not seen in a very long time, perhaps to a place you always loved.




 




If you were born on July 29, or within five days of this date, you will benefit very strongly from
this new moon.




 




Romantically, travel will increase your ability to have fun and relax and also help you meet and
greet new people. This would be particularly true in late September.




 




On September 11, you may get a wonderful phone call, email, or instant message that sets your
spirits soaring. This is a great day to take a trip, too. All Leos will benefit, but if you are born on
or near August 6, you'll be beautifully positioned to take full advantage of whatever comes up.



                                                                                                    6 / 11

Summary




 




When it comes to finances, someone may let you down this month, and when they do, it will put
you in a tailspin. You'll have to be very clear-headed and objective to solve this problem that will
zoom out of the blue. You are getting tired of these types of surprises - your last one happened
in March - and by George, you are going to find a fix for these types of situations.




 




In the meantime, lock up your credit cards and put away your checkbook for a while, dear Leo.
This month will be expensive in many ways you might not expect. If you can delay big
purchases to late October, you'll be all the happier for it.




 




You will likely be on a mission to find more income, if only out of necessity, and if so, your
efforts may be successful. Keep your expectations realistic, however, for Saturn's presence in
your salary sector suggests that employers you encounter will be unusually budget-conscious.
Ask for a raise anyway, but if you get a less than expected offer, don't take it personally. Times
are tight.



                                                                                               7 / 11
Leo September 2008 Horoscope - Leo Monthly Horoscope,Leo Horoscope, Leo September 2008 Horoscop




 




Keep your head down and don't tempt fate on September 3 when Saturn will throw cold water
on financial talks. If someone is overly critical or pessimistic on this day, take an objective
attitude and do not allow this person's words to get to you. In a few days you will feel better.
Use the advice that you do find helpful, but discard the rest.




 




The following day, September 4, will bring a wonderful about-face to events when Jupiter will
send a shimmering beam to your ruling star, the Sun. Extra money should arrive in the form of
overtime pay or freelance work, saving the day. All types of financial meetings today should go
well.




 




If you've been looking for work, the move of Jupiter and Pluto direct on September 8 will make it
a pivotal moment in your timeline. Watch the discussions you have on and near this day. From
this point on, you will note a sharper, livelier pace when it comes to career developments, with
less likelihood for false starts. If you've awaited work-related approvals, they'll come down now.




 




You will have two other tough financial days to get through before you can exhale: September
12 and the full moon, September 15. At these points, events will come at you rapidly, and a
financial situation that you may not have noticed will now reach full boil. You'll need to find quick
solutions for urgent and unexpected questions. This would not be the week to negotiate the
financials of a divorce, to have talks with your banker for a loan, to discuss compensation for a
new job, or to conduct talks on the purchase or sale of a house. Keep out of sight for now.




                                                                                                8 / 11
Leo September 2008 Horoscope - Leo Monthly Horoscope,Leo Horoscope, Leo September 2008 Horoscop




 




Be aware that Mercury will be retrograde from September 24 to October 15, but you will begin
to feel the slowdowns that Mercury brings by mid-month. You will be wise to set your most
important plans in place next month, in late October. If that's not possible, try to settle things
earlier, near September 4, your best day this month.




 




You will find accord after the September 29 new moon, but it would be best to continue to define
the terms of your agreement for several more weeks.




 




Comforting planets - Venus, Mars, and Mercury - have migrated to your quick, short travel
sector all month. Additional opportunities to enjoy being in a new setting will increase even more
at month's end. Travel represents the most joyous part of your chart, so treat yourself to time
away.




 




Romance appears to be better in a new setting too this month. If you can't quite afford to spend
money on travel, you may be able to be a guest in the home of friends or close family members
and save on hotels. Your love life will also be helped enormously by the move of Jupiter to
direct speed on September 8. If you feel things have been dull or oddly out of sync, you'll see a
big improvement!




 




                                                                                               9 / 11
Leo September 2008 Horoscope - Leo Monthly Horoscope,Leo Horoscope, Leo September 2008 Horoscop




 




 




Key dates:




 




Best romantic days: September 5-6, 8, 11, 24-25, and 28-29.




 




You'll need to manage a harsh financial surprise: September 3 and 12, and over the full moon,
when problems will reach a full boil by the full moon, September 15 (plus four days).




 




A glowing day for getting a part-time job, extra overtime, or even a raise: September 4




 




You'll find it easier to locate work and also to get creative ideas approved: after September 8.




 



                                                                                             10 / 11
Leo September 2008 Horoscope - Leo Monthly Horoscope,Leo Horoscope, Leo September 2008 Horoscop




Romance improves: after September 8. Quick travel boosts love, too.




 




You'll reach accord on deals from September 29 onward, but wait to finalize things after
October 18. Why? Mercury will retrograde: September 24 to October 15.
