The simplified profile of planetary aspects reaching a peak in the month of September is: 2 conjunctions, 4 oppositions, 4 trines, 3 squares. This simplified profile is somewhat similar to the one for the previous month, and so the same comment could be made this time: "There seems to be nothing special here, except for the relative equality among the members of the simplified profile of planetary aspects."
The long-running aspect of Uranus 1/4 Pluto, which has been mentioned recently in these articles, is within about 1.5 to 2.5 degrees of exact throughout the month of September, but "That aspect will not actually achieve exactness until 6/24/12, which will be the first of a series of seven peaks, ending with the peak on 3/17/15. The fifth peak, which occurs on 4/21/14, is actually part of a Grand Cross configuration, portending an ungood time of major magnitude. The closest approach to exactness this year (2011) will be during the first week of August, when it 'will get as close as 1 degree 01' from exactness', as mentioned previously." Using that description as a guideline, it is easy to see how the recent uproar in the Middle East could trace its roots of compatibility to this long-running aspect. Remember, the stunning dissolution of the Soviet Union was announced on December 25, 1991, precisely at the peak of an aspect between these same two planets. In case you may have forgotten, that aspect was Uranus 1/7 Pluto. This time, the aspect angle involved is a square, which is even more powerful than that septile in 1991. Yes, the basics of Universal Law are still alive and fully functioning.
The first major planetary aspect which peaks in the month of September is on the 1st, in the afternoon/evening. Mercury goes stationary in declination, increasing the compatibilities for thinking, communicating, and making connectivities of any kind.
Peaking in the evening of the 2nd, Sun 1/3 Jupiter tends to make things feel good and emphasizes the big picture. (That's quite a leap, since the big picture lately has been somewhat dismal.)
In the afternoon/evening of the 5th, Mercury parallel Jupiter echoes the two above-mentioned aspects and emphasizes big ideas and large projects.
Peaking in the morning of the 8th, Mercury 1/2 Neptune introduces large globs of confusion and puts barriers in the way of clear thinking. This is definitely not a time to take (or even plan for) water-based trips. Plumbing problems will tend to show up at this time.
In the evening of the 8th, Venus parallel Saturn creates an emotional atmosphere of concentrative and serious issues. This could be a good time to pay your bills and reconcile your bank statement.
Peaking at about midday on the 9th, Mercury parallel Neptune boosts the tendency for inspirational ideas to show up. Hunches seem to come out of nowhere, making us wonder why we didn't think of them before.
Peaking in the evening of the 11th, Sun parallel Saturn focuses on the practical side of things, shutting out harebrained and superficial ideas. Peaking later in the evening, Mercury 1/3 Pluto increases the compatibility for "spreading the word" about anything -- in this case, anything practical, due to the Sun-Saturn aspect.
In the afternoon/evening of the 14th, Mercury 1/3 Jupiter mostly echoes the influence described earlier for the 5th (Mercury parallel Jupiter), except that this one is stronger. Good for planning/taking long trips.
Early in the morning of the 16th, Venus parallel Uranus tends to make our emotions and other feelings dwell on newness and "nowness". At about midday, Pluto goes stationary-direct in Capricorn. The compatibilities bring out ideas and activities involving groups, crowds, competition, and (in some cases) pushiness. The Capricorn factor emphasizes seriousness. The problems in the Middle East will react with increased vigor.
Peaking in the wee hours of the 17th, Venus 1/2 Uranus tends to bring sudden changes in emotions and other feelings, generally of a negative nature. Uranus is in Aries, and Venus is currently in its own sign of Libra. So this aspect could tend to focus on male-female issues.
In the wee hours of the 18th, Venus parallel Uranus tends to make our emotions and other feelings dwell on newness and "nowness". (Hey, didn't we just have that aspect two days ago, on the 16th? Yes, and then on the 17th Venus crossed the celestial equator, changing from north to south declination -- and basically the same aspect manifested again.) In the afternoon/evening (18th), Venus 1/4 Pluto makes tempers flare.
In the afternoon/evening of the 19th, Sun parallel Venus emphasizes emotions and other feelings, generally in a good way.
Early in the morning of the 21st, Mercury parallel Saturn brings another good opportunity to pay your bills and tend to other financial matters.
Peaking in the wee hours of the 22nd, Sun parallel Uranus tends to make us temporarily forget about serious matters and focus on newness again.
The Sun crosses the celestial equator on the 23rd and enters Libra at 2:05 am PDT (5:05 am EDT), signifying the official beginning of autumn.
But we are not finished with the 23rd. Peaking later in the wee hours, Mars 1/3 Uranus can surprise us with unusual sounds and strange actions. Later in the morning, Mercury parallel Venus tends to bring a pleasant atmosphere for just about anything. But peaking in the evening (and having a wider orb), Saturn 4/11 Neptune brings a "downer" atmosphere which will tend to smother the nice influences that peak on the 23rd. However, as though attempting to "have the last say", Sun parallel Uranus peaks late in the evening, tending to bring a semblance of newness. (Hey, didn't we just have that aspect the previous day, on the 22nd? Yes, and then in the wee hours of the 23rd the Sun crossed the celestial equator, changing from north to south declination -- and basically the same aspect manifested again. It's deja vu all over again.)
Peaking in the afternoon/evening of the 25th, Sun 1/2 Uranus can bring unpleasant surprises of all kinds -- generally of the kind where something we expect to be present is suddenly taken away, like for example a power outage or a failure of some device to work properly. Late in the evening, Sun parallel Mercury facilitates thinking and conversations.
In the evening of the 26th, Mercury 1/2 Uranus interferes with thinking and communication processes. People misspeak and make writing errors.
Peaking in the wee hours of the 27th, Mercury parallel Uranus actually tends to undo the interferences brought by the Mercury-Uranus opposition of the 26th, but it will probably not be very successful. Peaking about an hour later, Venus parallel Saturn echoes its influence as described for the 8th (please refer to that earlier description). Mercury crosses the celestial equator at about midday (27th), changing from north to south declination, and then in the evening it parallels Uranus again, tending to create sparkling conversations, perhaps more successfully this time as compared to this morning. (Yes, this is another deja vu.)
In the afternoon of the 28th, Sun CON Mercury in Libra emphasizes good communication. But earlier the same day, that conjunction squares Pluto and will tend to bring argumentation and other kinds of disharmony.
(Note: The precise timings of the aspects for September 28 can be seen on the sample aspect page which is posted during the month of August at www.newstandardaspectarian.com.)
Peaking in the afternoon/evening of the 29th, Venus CON Saturn in Libra makes everything feel serious and concentrative. Hilarity will almost certainly not be available at this time. After all, reality is cyclic, and consequently everything must have its seasons of ups and downs.
