It doesn’t happen often the universe gives Aquarius a moment that feels like a personal milestone but September 2025 is serving up just that. The energy of the month is grounded by a total lunar eclipse and Full Moon in Pisces on the 7th, an uncommon conjunction that’s triggering deep upheaval in self-value, money, and how you respect your own input. Committed with Saturn retrograde in Pisces, this is a time of review, release, and radical clarity. The shifts might catch you by surprise, but they’re meant to propel you toward the life you’ve been quietly desiring.
1. The Eclipse That Changes Everything
The Pisces lunar eclipse is not just any old full moon it’s a cosmic reset button. With the North Node in Pisces, the call is to trust the flow and not hang on to control. As astrologist Priscila Lima de Charbonnières says, “This eclipse invites us to release old habits and accept an endless love.” For Aquarius, this is a release of old money, security, and self-worth patterns. The disclosures can be emotional, but they’re freeing, making room for new chances to germinate in the next six months.
2. Saturn’s Call for Self-Mastery
Since September 1, Saturn has been retrograding in Pisces, stirring your second house of value and resources. This is a gentle, persistent push to review how you make money, spend money, and save money and if those are habits you want to continue over time. Saturn’s energy here is not about deprivation, but discipline. It’s a great time to look over your budget, renegotiate your fees, or establish boundaries in business partnerships.
3. Mercury’s Precision and Surprises
Mercury in Virgo from the 2nd heightens your awareness of joint assets, agreements, and partnerships. Just be careful of the Mercury–Uranus square on the 3rd, which may announce unexpected information or an impromptu change in a money matter. The trick is to remain agile. By the 13th, the Sun–Mercury conjunction in Virgo provides clear-cut vision of a business venture or investment, and you can proceed with decisions you feel good about.
4. Working with Full Moon Energy
Working with the eclipse energy means slowing down and tuning in. The 48 hours surrounding the event are potent for release rituals journaling about what you’re ready to let go of, practicing breathwork, or meditating to calm your nervous system. As highlighted in Pisces’ lesson of surrender, this isn’t about giving up; it’s about trusting that the Universe has a better plan than the one you’ve been forcing.
5. Venus Brings Creative Renewal
Since the 18th, Venus in Virgo combines functionality with creativity, sparking a new way of approaching creative endeavors and relationship structures. This transit favors unions that are both beautiful and effective, and it invites you to perfect your style without succumbing to perfectionism.
6. Uranus Retrograde’s Inner Revolution
Uranus, your contemporary ruler, remains retrograde in Gemini on the 6th, directing its visionary eye within. Throughout the next few months, you’ll be reexamining how you display your uniqueness in love, art, and recreation. This is an opportunity to try new things, revive passion, and reconnect with those aspects of yourself that love innovation.
7. The New Moon and Equinox Reset
The New Moon in Virgo on the 21st, followed by the autumn equinox on the 22nd, marks a shift toward balance and intentional living. This is your moment to set grounded goals for the season ahead, especially around partnerships and shared resources. With Mars entering Scorpio on the same day, your career sector gets a surge of determination perfect for launching a project or making a bold professional move.
8. Communication as a Superpower
With Mercury moving into Libra on the 18th, communication becomes more diplomatic and smoother. This is perfect for hammering out agreements, patching up misunderstandings, or checking out new partnerships. The trick is balancing honesty with tact, so your ideas are heard without causing unnecessary conflict.
9. Love and Relationship Shifts
The eclipse’s power in your second and eighth houses will also ignite shifts in your love life. For couples, it could be more dialogue about common values and money targets. For singles, it’s an opportunity to let go of self-sabotaging behaviors and become more vulnerable to true connection. As Lima de Charbonnières points out, “Pisces dissolves illusions and softens the heart with compassion, while Virgo anchors us in the present.
10. Remaining Grounded During Change
Eclipse season might feel overwhelming, but grounding techniques such as mindful movement, spending time outdoors, or just keeping a consistent daily routine will see you through the changes with ease. Don’t forget, Aquarius flourishes when balancing both innovation and stability. This month’s astrology is teaching you how to blend the two.
September’s astrology is not about minor adjustments it’s about life-changing upgrades. The lunar eclipse is your cosmic permission slip to let go of what’s been weighting you down, Saturn is here to assist you in establishing a more solid foundation, and Uranus is igniting the creative reboot you’ve been hungry for. Have faith in the process, Aquarius the next page is already turning.
