The planet in charge of money, property, love, and relationships turns direct, easing the retrograde season slightly.
Today, Venus goes direct, making it easier for each zodiac sign to manifest what they need, want, or desire. Take a deep breath today and light a candle scented with rose essential oil. Put your hands on your heart and smile because you have survived another Venus retrograde and are now ready to embody the important lessons of this astrological phase.
Venus, the planet of relationships and abundance, will enter Leo for the first time on June 2, 2023. It has since completed its pre-shadow retrograde and is now preparing to work through the lessons of the post-shadow phase.
From July 22 to September 3, 2023, Venus was retrograde, challenging you to focus on your heart’s truth, clear away anything that no longer resonates confidently, and step more fully into your power.
The pre- and post-shadow periods of this planet are just as important, if not more so. The pre-shadow period for Venus, which represents when the planet begins to slow down and prepare for its retrograde, can be even more powerful. This year began on June 19, 2023, and would have ended on July 22, 2023, when Venus went retrograde. Now that Venus has completed its forty-day journey through the underworld, it is time to put its post-shadow phase to use in your life.
The post-shadow period is when the planet is still direct but not moving as quickly as it normally would, resulting in a slower period. In this case, Venus must also pass through the degrees of Leo that it has already traversed, which will assist you in bringing resolution, closure, and healing to any themes that arose during its retrograde journey.
The post-shadow phase will last until October 7, just before Venus enters the earth sign of Virgo on October 8, 2023, assisting you in extracting the necessary lessons so you are truly manifesting with the universe rather than opposing the divine flow of life.
Take advantage of this time to reflect, learn, and set intentions for what you want to bring into your life.
Your zodiac sign’s daily horoscope for Sunday, September 03, 2023.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Aries, you enjoy trying new things, but you also enjoy returning to your comfort zone on occasion. With the Moon entering Taurus mid-morning, your focus shifts to luxury, simplicity, and a little fun. Schedule time today for earthy and sensual activities. Spend time outside in nature. Enjoy a hearty and nutritious meal. Light a scented candle or buy a bouquet of flowers for your desk to create a sensory experience. Slow down and enjoy life for a while.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Taurus, you’re in luck. The Moon enters your sign today and will stay there for the rest of the weekend. Because the Moon is exalted in your sign, you can expect a happy day today. The Moon encourages you to turn inward, and with the retrograde season in full swing, tuning into your heart will ensure that your actions perfectly align with the universe. Expect a cosmic download from your higher power, which will provide you with emotional clarity and insight into a situation. Use today to connect with your inner child by writing, journaling, meditation, grounding exercises, and playing.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Oh, oh. For all your mutable energy, Gemini, the Moon in Taurus can bring out your more stubborn side. Today, under the Taurus Moon, it is best to focus on a task until it is completed. Because Taurus rules food, earth, leather, and real estate, if you want to plan a garden before winter or work on something Earth-related, such as woodwork or a home improvement project, the next two days are ideal for buying what you need and getting the job done.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
You’re a true friend, and once you’ve decided to let someone into your inner circle, there’s no turning back. You enjoy getting to know people and appreciate how time can bring you closer together. The Moon’s entry into Taurus today allows you to express your feelings to people you consider to be your best friends. The next few days are ideal for organizing a get-together that will leave a lasting impression. Go to the theater or the movies. Visit a local ceramic paint store or a craft store and gather the materials you’ll need to create something to keep in your homes to remember each other by.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
You have high regard for others and only expect the same from those in your life, particularly those with whom you work. Today, the Moon enters Taurus, allowing you to reap the benefits of your hard work and effort. Your social status and career sector are active today, and it can feel good to know that colleagues and your boss value you. This week, you may receive a token of appreciation or learn that a decision-maker admires your work ethic and wishes to prepare you for a promotion.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
When asked for your opinion, be truthful. The Moon enters your personal philosophy sector today, and you may feel ‘on the spot’ when expressing your feelings and thoughts. Although it may be difficult to speak when you anticipate hurt feelings, it is critical to prioritize honesty. Telling a white lie to save face may backfire. So, rather than trying to be agreeable, just be yourself — clear, honest, and concise.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Plan ahead of time, Libra, even for unpleasant topics like death and inheritance. The Moon’s entry into Taurus today allows you to reconsider your future plans. As a Libra, you like to take care of others, and your relationship-oriented mindset is strongly supported when the Moon is in Taurus. Work on any remaining emergency planning tasks, such as determining who will have access to passwords or bank accounts if you are unable to do so. Consider reviewing your life insurance policy and beneficiaries and storing documents in a safe, easily accessible location for the future.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
You are a sensual being, and when the Moon is in Taurus, your partnership sector, it moves your heart to consider the permanence of relationships and what you want in a mate. You can think about the seriousness of love and what it means to commit to one person today. If you have a specific vision for your future that you have yet to discuss with someone you’re dating, today is ideal for assessing the situation to see if you’re on the same page.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
It’s beneficial to have a routine that supports the type of life you want to live, and while you’re eager to be agreeable and flexible, it’s also necessary to be stubborn at times. Today’s Moon Energy allows you to make a new plan for your schedule and the things you need to fit into your daily routine. You might want to schedule time for meditation, journaling, and exercise, as well as time with a friend who shares your interests.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
You want to be successful, and you may romanticize the idea of success on a grand scale. The Moon entering Taurus brings out your creative side, which is ideal while Pluto is still retrograde in your sign. Today, go over old business plan ideas you once considered implementing. Make time to go back to the drawing board to figure out how to improve your job, your professional life, and what you need to do to reinvent yourself in more robust and powerful ways.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Today is all about family, and while you value your independence and personal space, you may choose to socialize and spend time with your relatives for some good, old-fashioned family fun. If you’re planning a BBQ or a power walk through the mall with a parent or cousin, this is the weekend to make lasting memories. Remember to take plenty of photos, Aquarius!
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Pisces, you have a deep side where just being around you heals people. You aren’t always the chatty type, but when the Moon enters Taurus, you enjoy long discussions and getting to know others better. Your listening ear is prepared to hear whatever someone in your life has to say. You are sympathetic and kind, and you enjoy being a helpful friend during this difficult time.
