September 2025 in Astrology

September will be a hectic month, as the final Eclipses of 2025 will occur now. Eclipses are karmic and transformative events, being a strong predictive point in astrology. Adding fuel to the fire, we start the month with Uranus turning retrograde on the 6th, stationing just as the Lunar Eclipse happens.

With that, early September has a lot of chaotic energy, and we might see great surprises or twists happening. Much of it will be related to deals and agreements. Reversals and conflicts could arise now.

This Lunar Eclipse will be visible in Europe, so I believe a lot of it can deal with change in Europe or problems in the continent. Changes in regards to the Ukraine-Russia war seem specially likely to me.

September also has the intensification of Uranus Trine Pluto, an important aspect of 2025, that deals with major power and structural changes around the world.

[…] it is an aspect about change in the world, change in leaders, change in how the world is organized. This aspect will be in effect from 2025 to 2030, marking a strong moment of change in the world.

from my Uranus in Taurus predictions

As shown above, this aspect is a long term influence, affecting the next half-decade. The years ahead are a time of major change and maybe chaos. But going back to the short term, this intensification now can indicate strong signals or strong events. Issues being raised this month will tend to act as red flags, or clues, towards bigger events later on.

Between Eclipses, we have some sign changes. The two most interesting ones are Mercury and Venus. Venus being somewhat of a minor note, as the big thing will be the 14th, when it switched between Cancer to Leo. That can be a complicated day, of disagreements and quarrels. But again, just one day.

Mercury in Virgo is very strong, and great for communicating or doing anything detail-oriented. In Virgo from the 15th until October 2nd, it shows a great moment to concentrate, study and work on a project.

Going back to the main subject, a Solar Eclipse on the 21st will happen in exact opposition to Saturn. Every Sun-Saturn opposition is a big clash, darkness and light, old and new, past and future. Solar Eclipses similarly deal with dichotomies and light revealing what was once dark or hidden.

To me, this Saturn opposition supercharges this Eclipse. We will get stronger contrasts, stronger opposition and conflict. We will also see clashes between real and fake, between the pretty pictures we are painted and the sad reality. Overall, it can be a time of big revelations and conflict.


Summary

Mundane

The whole month is colored by the Eclipses. It can be a very hectic and volatile month.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 7th can deal a lot with harsh events, chaotic occurrences and intensity. A lot of it can deal with duplicities, revelation of past deceptions and issues about power. The Eclipse will be visible in Europe, so the continent can figure strongly now. Issues with the Ukraine-Russia conflict can be specially highlighted.

The Solar Eclipse on the 21st can show great conflicts coming out, as well as many issues of the past being revealed.

Besides these dates, I’d highlight the 14th as a possible time of communication problems or other issues coming out. As well as the 24th, as a day of conflict and power struggles.

Personal

On a personal level, Eclipses are always interesting. In many ways, it is the time where our lives can truly change, either by chance or by our own doing. Sudden events can happen, or we can simply get a strong craving for shaking things up.

Specially if a planet in your chart is touched by the eclipses, this is a moment of transformation in your life. Check my guide to eclipses to see if your chart is affected by the coming eclipses.

This is a time of change, so we should navigate it carefully (but not too carefully), and make the best of it.

Editorial – Intuition

I’m kinda late with this text, a mix between being busy, a bit tired by life and just not feeling like it.

Astrology is a mix of exact and subjective. The exact part deals with calculations, rules and factors. The subjective deals with intuition, feeling and the unknown. Both are important, which is why I believe that AI will never be able to truly takeover this, beyond a superficial slop level. But that is another tangent for another time.

Back to the subjective, whenever I make a prediction I need to feel something. Like a strong feeling, giving me a direction or details. You can’t schedule this, you can’t force it to happen every last Thursday of the month at 3 PM, like an HR meeting. Although many people try.

I know they do. But to me, that sounds like phoning it in, and I don’t like doing that with stuff I care about. So I just wait and let it happen naturally. It usually comes. Sometimes a month before, other times a week before, it varies. It might not even come!

I almost ran this text with a dry (phoned in) prediction. That would give me the perfect timing, I could fill a check box and do everything business as usual. But I don’t like living like an excel spreadsheet, I just don’t.

It finally came to me what this month and these Eclipses are about. The heavy P.Bhadrapada energy can trigger a lot of unhappiness. We are in the dark in many ways, not knowing exactly what is going on. The little we know isn’t exactly making us happy either. This Eclipse will come to highlight and reveal things, transforming and changing a lot.

The Solar Eclipse has a similar energy, thanks to the Saturn connection. So this month deals a lot with things being revealed, not that pretty things, and our change and improvement triggered by what is being revealed. September will be, in many ways, about darkness and light. The dichotomies of life.

Going a little beyond, the Solar Eclipse shows structural change and transformation, conflict between large institutions (specially countries) coming into play. This Eclipse indicates that the months ahead will deal a lot with this.

Rahu/Ketu in Aquarius/Leo (2025-2026)

The shift of the nodal axis is always very important, as this is the main karmic indicator in astrology, also showing in which signs the eclipses will happen. The transiting position of the nodes always shows the collective karma that the world is dealing with, as well as our collective desires and obsessions. Rahu shows a point of obsession, as well as an area of focus. Ketu shows a point of detachment, its position shows an area of life where we might be lacking at a specific moment, matters here will feel diminished or reduced. Ketu also represents an area where we might find closure or some kind of ending.

The previous cycle in Pisces/Virgo was a very interesting moment. Rahu expanded and highlighted Pisces, a sign that deals with dreams, illusions and an escapist view of the world. Throughout 2024, people were consumed by illusions and impractical ideas. People believed that their desired outcomes would happen, solely because they believed and cherished them. Rude awakenings happened, and are still happening in 2025. Similarly, Ketu in Virgo reduced the need/desire for practicality, adding fuel to the fire described above.

Rahu/Ketu in Aquarius/Leo18/05/2025 until 05/12/2026

Now we have Rahu expanding Aquarius, and Ketu reducing Leo. What do these signs demonstrate?

I like to describe Aquarius as the sign of disruption. It rules anything disruptive, that transforms society and changes life as we know it. Aquarius rules science, technology, inventions and new discoveries. It also rules radical politics, conspiracy theories, science fiction, as well as any kind of fringe/unusual area of study — including astrology itself.

Leo is the sign of the might lion, it represents the king, aristocracy and things related to it. It rules rulers, leaders and those in power. It also relates to arts, drama, creativity — as these are pursuits of the wealthy, much like in ancient royal courts. Leo also relates a lot to tradition, representing long-standing structures or customs, conventions and rituals in society. It deals a lot with pomp and circumstance, flattery and deference to authorities.

Mundane Predictions

Ketu in Leo

Ketu in the sign of the cuddly cat will reduce the matters explained above, creating a sense of detachment about them.

One of the main areas affected by this transit will be the arts. Saturn in Pisces (since March 2025) will similarly afflict artists. So this influence is intensified by the double transit. Movies, music, TV will all be affected. We are likely to see staff cuts, reductions, mergers and crisis in these sectors.

The writers strike of 2007 happened while Ketu was in Leo the last time. Similarly, we could see a strike happening, although I don’t believe it will be as big as that one was. Still, we will see changes in regards to drama and fiction. People might be strongly disinterested or uninvested about it. Less people could go to the movies. Audiences might prefer reality shows, documentaries or more realistic content overall.

Show business in general could deal with troubles, mistakes and delays during this transit. Watch as movies, music and other projects can suffer from production problems and delays. Lawsuits can similarly gain prominence and create problems in the industry.

Disruption to institutions and traditions around the world are a possibility. Reforms, reductions or cuts are favored now. Authority figures, specially long-standing ones, tend to lose power now. Budget cuts are a strong possibility too. Leo favors the traditional elite, or oligarchy, of a place. Ketu here will do the opposite, and these groups will tend to face great trouble now.


Rahu in Aquarius

Rahu in Aquarius transit is very favorable for technology, I’ve wrote about it before, but it is important to highlight this trend. Great advancements tend to happen during this transit. During the previous transit, between 2006 and 2008, the original iPhone was launched. Which started the smartphone and social media age we live in. Similarly, major advancements could be unveiled now too.

For this current transit, I believe we will see further advances in AI capabilities and usage. It will tend to become ubiquitous and unescapable, in many ways.

In regards to politics, Rahu here will favor anyone radical or disruptive. Whether you like them or not, might I add. Radicals you like will advance, radicals you dislike will also advance. The key is being a radical, being disruptive and transformative. Breaking away from tradition and the status quo, taking a fresh approach. On some level, establishment institutions tend to be weakened now.

Discoveries and revelations, in regards to science and fringe knowledge, are another strong trend with this transit. We might see some medical advancements or discoveries now.

Transit and Timeline

With any transit, it is interesting to look at past cycles to understand better the current one.

  • Rahu in Aquarius, Ketu in Leo previous transit: 11/10/2006-30/04/2008
  • Rahu in Leo, Ketu in Aquarius previous transit: 29/01/2016-17/08/2017

Looking back, this transit is a nodal return to around 2008. Some astrologers believe that an economic crisis, similar to the one around 2007-2008, could happen now. I personally don’t believe it. The variables then were different, and this wasn’t the decisive transit for that crisis.

Still, I see many of the trends from around that time coming back in some form. As mentioned above, 2007 was the launch of the first iPhone, so this coming period could show similar tech innovations. Those years also saw strikes in Hollywood, and great success for reality shows. Similarly, we could see problems with fiction and movie production coming into play now.

Looking at 2016-2017, we’ve had the beginning of the first Trump term. It is very symbolic to see the second term happening during a Nodal Inversion for the first one. With Rahu in Leo, around 2017, the establishment was favored. Now with Rahu in Aquarius, disruption will be favored. So greater change is possible.
