Keeping it Simple in September

9/3/2016

Welcome to September!  It's been quite the ride in 2016 and September is bringing a culmination of many of these energies.  September, being the month of the fall solar and lunar eclipses, holds endings and beginnings within its mutable Virgo energy.  This month will also bring with it the final Saturn-Neptune square, Mars into Capricorn, Jupiter into Libra and Pluto direct.  All of this is happening with Mercury retrograde in Virgo in the background.

Mercury goes retrograde several times a year so IS a common occurrence but may be felt more intensely in Virgo.  It always puts a focus on our communications and asks us to slow down and review how we are communicating, and so beneath that, how we are thinking.  I have already been experiencing it personally.  Correspondence not arriving in the mail when it should have, check.  Broken internet connection, check.  Google Chrome tabs malfunctioning, check.  Getting locked out of my own online accounts, check.  Routine communications seeming to take several extra steps, more time, and infinitely more patience, checkity-check-CHECK.  But everything happens for a reason and Mercury retrograde is no exception.  We obviously need extra chances at checking ourselves in the thought and communication department each year.


Without getting into the meaning and complexities of all of the astrological events themselves, here are some tips for making the most of the energies of September in general. 
  1. Clean house, get organized and focus on the tasks at hand.  This is a perfect time to get those ducks in a row and clean up and clear out on multiple levels.  Be diligent.  Be responsible.  Do the budget, do the dishes, tie up loose ends, organize, pay bills.  This goes for the mundane as well as within yourself.  This is definitely NOT the time to bury your head in the sand.  What habits, patterns, reactions, and ways of being are ready to be released in your life? Do the work of "weeding the garden" and getting rid of what no longer serves so that everything is running as efficiently as possible.  Taking responsibility and tending to the routine and mundane details sets the foundation for bringing your goals and dreams into being.
  2. Be conscious and meticulous in your communications.  What are you saying, why are you saying it and what are you hoping to achieve by saying it?    What do you really want and how can you communicate best for a win-win?  What is your thought process behind how you communicate?  In some cases no response is the best option.  Are you able to just let it go? When I listen to a client speak, I am given powerful clues to how their belief system is affecting their life.  Pay attention to your own speech. For example, do you find yourself saying "I can't"?  There really is no can't.  There is "I won't", and there is a reason.  It could be as simple as you don't want to, or it's not as high of a priority as something else, or you don't know how to do it.  Take responsibility.  Watch for phrasing that indicates judgments and labels.  If you are critical of others you are more than likely also hammering yourself, which locks you into a negative pattern.
  3. Focus on where you want to go.  (This is always true but especially for the two weeks between the solar eclipse September 1st and the lunar eclipse September 16th.)  Pay extra attention to where your mental focus is and what feelings you are allowing and generating especially in the two weeks between the eclipses and try to keep them aligned with what you want to be experiencing.  Think of this like skiing down a mountain.  You will go where you are looking.  If you keep your vision focused on that tree you want to avoid, you will most likely ski right into it.  You have to focus your vision on the path you want to take!  Pay attention to where you are focusing especially in these two weeks.  Maybe you are being shown what you don't want in your life, as that will help you gain clarity in direction and give you extra motivation to make changes.  Don't get stuck in focusing on what you don't like or don't want.  If you notice yourself caught up in any thought patterns like "this always happens to me", stop it immediately and change your thinking to focus on what you want to create, and use present tense.  (Using future tense only keeps it in the future.)  Focus on putting your consciousness and thoughts where you WANT to be.

So to keep it simple for September, it's clearing out the old and wrapping up old cycles to make room for the new to take shape, with a focus on tending to the mundane details, being responsible, and being mindful of our thinking and communication, while we keep our vision fixed on our desired destination.

And whatever energies are affecting you are always affecting everyone else, to one degree or another, however consciously or unconsciously, and manifesting in different ways, so patience, kindness and understanding are always good to remember.
