Planetary Transits for September 20 – September 26.

Sun transits Virgo, from 02:54 to 09:45°. Sun is weak until Sept. 22, and is under the aspect of Mars until Sept. 28. (Last week’s prediction: Watch for government problems due to military activity. The Iraqi Prime Minister called on the U.S. government to end its contract with Blackwater, USA after its members were involved in a lethal shooting incident with civilians.)

Moon is waxing and transits Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and into Pisces. The full Moon is in Pisces, on Sept. 26 at 1:45 p.m. CDT.

Mercury transits out of Virgo and into Libra on Sept. 22 at 4:28 a.m. CDT. Mercury is weak until Sept. 26. Be careful with your stocks, business and communications.

Mars transits Gemini, from 01:48 to 05:12. Mars is weak until Sept. 26.

Venus transits Cancer, from 25:01 to 28:26°. Venus is weak until Oct. 6.

Jupiter transits Scorpio, from 18:48 to 19:43°.

Saturn transits Leo, from 08:12 to 09:01°. (The strength of Saturn may have contributed to the rise in oil prices recently. Watch for setbacks when Saturn closely transits Ketu during Oct.)

Rahu and Ketu transit Aquarius and Leo, respectively, from 12:55 to 12:57°. Persons with rising signs in the 13-degree range, or with planets in odd signs in the 13-degree range, should be careful and patient through September.
