September heralds the official end of summer, and the month’s back-to-school vibes and detail-oriented Virgo season influence tend to inspire everyone to get on top of their workload and better organize their lives. The astrology of September 2024 certainly lives up to this reputation, as the planets are serving up some lucky opportunities to manifest abundance and some motivating connections that’ll give you the cosmic elbow grease you need to reach your work and finance goals.
The first few weeks of the month comprise the bulk of Virgo season, and this zodiac energy is meticulous, attentive, and orderly. Use it to analyze the little details of your finances, tidy up your budget, and build more sustainable routines around work. The new moon on Sept. 2 is helpful when setting tangible goals, so map out a practical path to longer-term financial or professional success.
Mid-month brings good luck for manifesting money, as luxury-loving Venus blows a glitzy kiss to prosperity planet Jupiter on Sept. 14. But do your abundance rituals before Sept. 17, as that’s when the full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces peaks, and this chaotic lunation will require your full attention. It’s time to ditch the rose-colored glasses and get real about how you’re feeling, whether that’s related to your job or how you’re spending your cash. Libra season begins on Sept. 22 alongside the autumnal equinox, and this harmony-seeking vibe is great for balancing your checkbook or having diplomatic discussions at work.
If Virgo season wasn’t as productive as you hoped, make up for it during the last days of September, as this brings some of the most lucrative aspects of the month. On Sept. 29, go-getter Mars harmonizes with down-to-business Saturn, so put your nose to the grindstone and get serious about working toward your goals. Hard work will pay off big. The following day, a Mercury cazimi in Libra brings mental clarity great for budgeting and creating new ideas that have money-making potential.
