Horoscope For Today: Monday, September 8, 2025
Happy Monday, my friends, and welcome to a new week within a month of big astrology!
Just yesterday we experienced a major lunar eclipse in Pisces that has us all feeling a little heightened and emotionally tapped. The month of September is all about embracing some big changes, and just a week in we’re certainly already feeling that. The name of the game today is taking it slow and easy as we recover from yesterday’s eclipse. Let yourself marinate and reflect on anything big that came up for you without putting pressure on yourself to take action and go.
Today the waning Moon finishes off the journey through Pisces, crossing over Saturn in the process, which may result in some tense feelings of self-criticism, especially in the first half of the day. In the afternoon, the Moon will shift into Aries, which may stoke a bit of impulsiveness and a need to cave in to a sense of urgency. Be sure to ask yourself what’s truly urgent and where a distorted sense of importance is creating a false sense of urgency.
Read ahead to find out exactly how the cosmos are impacting your sign today, and don’t forget to check your sun and rising signs!
Aries
This Virgo season is bringing up some big changes when it comes to your day-to-day routines and how you care for yourself physically, emotionally, and spiritually. As we move forward from yesterday’s eclipse, use today to re-center yourself in your own perspective as a means of calibrating from any big revelations or internal shifts that came up. Remember that you are at the center of your own story and that your biggest dreams come together through small steps and bringing attention to detail.
Taurus
Taurus, this Virgo season is bringing up some big questions and pivots around your own creativity and self-expression, your community and network, and aspirations. After the heightened energy of yesterday’s eclipse, today is a day for retreating inward and processing everything that came up for you (or is still coming up). Give yourself some alone time to decompress today.
Gemini
The astrology has lately been very heightened for you, Gemini, and big change is afoot. Today is a day to get out and decompress a bit. Spend some time out and about doing something that lights you up today. Spend some time with friends and reconnect with the things that feel purposeful and meaningful for you. If you’re finding yourself overwhelmed with big questions about life, purpose, and career path, let that reconnection help guide you back to the things that matter to you.
Cancer
As a moon-ruled sign, yesterday’s lunar eclipse certainly felt particularly sensitive for you, Cancer, so be sure to take it easy and slow today while also reflecting on any big inspiration or ideas that came up for you. You may find it helpful to turn your attention towards how those ideas might funnel into your greater career and let yourself imagine what is possible.
Leo
You may start off the day feeling a bit tender with that inner critic volume at an 11, Leo. And with the intensity of this weekend’s lunar eclipse, be sure to give yourself all of the time and space you need without putting the pressure on. You may find yourself picking up a second wind later in the afternoon as you start finding some silver linings and fashioning the experiences of the last couple of days into some strong, guiding wisdom.
Virgo
How are you feeling, Virgo? (and remember that it’s alright if the answer is exhausted!) It’s been a heightened couple of days and a very active season of big changes. Don’t run yourself too hard today and remember that you don’t have to go it alone. If you find yourself confronting some big feelings, let yourself release what needs to be released and turn to loved ones for support if you need it. You just may find some answers and ideas come from the process.
Libra
If you find yourself feeling trapped in your own head today, Libra, take the time to ground yourself into your routine and bring attention to making the mundane feel special and comforting. If you’re feeling the tensions and overwhelm of the last couple of days, lean into your loved ones for support. The analysis paralysis might feel extra loud as of late, but just remember to take things one step at a time and trust your own intuition.
Scorpio
Let yourself embrace a little bit of emotional catharsis today, Scorpio. Lean into a creative outlet but be mindful of putting pressure on yourself for a certain outcome or holding expectations on yourself through the process. Don’t worry about making forward strides on that big creative project you’ve been drumming up, but rather, let yourself engage with the creative process for the sake of connecting to yourself and your own creativity. Let yourself bring a little special touch to the mundane motions of your day and dream up the possibilities of where you want to direct things when you feel that motivation pick up again soon.
Sagittarius
Today is a day for grounding and self-care, Sagittarius. There’s a good chance yesterday’s eclipse has been stirring things up for you in a big way, so make sure you’re giving yourself plenty of time to process and decompress. You may be feeling the urge to take some action and move forward on some of the goals you’ve been circling around lately, but let yourself sit with things and weigh your options before giving in to a false sense of urgency.
Capricorn
You may find your attention oscillating quite a bit between the micro and macro this month, Capricorn. If it feels like a lot to wrap your head around, just remember that bringing your attention to what’s right at hand is the most accessible and digestible way to let the details feed into the bigger picture. Yesterday’s eclipse may have brought about a big inward shift that was difficult but necessary. Today is all about taking the time you need to come back to your own center to ground and regroup. Give yourself a recharge at home day, Capricorn. You may find that giving your house a good deep clean brings about the catharsis and clarity you need.
Aquarius
If things are feeling shaky and like they’re rapidly changing right now, hang in there Aquarius. You may have a lot of big questions, or may find yourself trying to wrap your head around some big lessons when it comes to your own finances and resources. Take the time to ask yourself where things are and aren’t truly urgent, and what beliefs around money and values you’re holding on to that might not be true to you anymore (or perhaps even never were). Take the time to connect with friends today and find a little bit of emotional catharsis through recognizing the network of support you have immediately around you in your life.
Pisces
It’s been an incredibly heightened Virgo season for you so far, Pisces, and things aren’t necessarily slowing down. You’re being asked to revisit some big lessons you’ve learned over the last couple of years and determine what it means for your own journey forward and your understanding of yourself. And that’s a lot of big picture life questions! But in the meantime, be sure to take it easy and slow today. If you find yourself feeling overly critical, take the time to reflect on your own growth and consider all of the ways you now hold resources, boundaries, and self-worth because of that process.
