Astroview Report
Planetary Transits for September 15th — September 30th
(Interpretations based on the Systems’ Approach to Vedic Astrology)
Note: These astrological reports are now published on the 1st and 15th of each month. This should be helpful for planning the month – and coincides with the movement of the Sun into each sign/house around the middle of every month.
Notable Transits: Venus is in Cancer until October 1st. Sun is in Virgo, Sept. 17th – Oct. 17th. See below for the impact of these transits for each rising sign.
Transits for the next two weeks:
Sun transits out of its own sign, Leo, and into Virgo, Sept. 17th at 3:00 a.m. CDT. Sun is weak in degrees until Sept. 22nd. Leaders, presidents, physicians, administrators and government officials should get extra rest. (Especially President Biden, who recently traveled the world and is under tremendous stress personally and politically.)
Moon is waxing and transits Leo through Pisces and into Aries. The full (Harvest) Moon is in Pisces, Sept. 29th at 4:57 a.m. CDT.
Mars transits Virgo, from 17:53 to 28:27°. This connects the police, military, athletes, surgeons, and executives with technology, communications and intellectual and physical property. Mars is outside the orb of influence of other planets, but is co-dependent on the strength of Mercury, which may be under stress from time to time.
Mercury transits Leo, from 13:50 to 29:17°. This connects stocks, business, technology, communications and intellectual property — with leaders, physicians, administrators, and the government.
Jupiter transits Aries, from 21:12 to 20:13°. This should be favorable for law, judges, banking, religion, education, students, and children. Jupiter is in retrograde motion, until Dec. 30th. Taurus, Cancer and Capricorn rising sign persons, however, should be careful and patient whenever Jupiter is within five degrees of their rising sign degree — or any planet — by aspect or conjunction, in any sign or house.
Jupiter is in Aries through April 30, 2024. This connects law and justice with Mars. Expect courageous and executive decisions (without fear or favor) regarding legal matters through February 2024. Taurus, Virgo, and Scorpio rising sign persons, however, should be careful and patient — as Jupiter is in their twelfth, eighth, and sixth (inauspicious) houses, respectively, through April 2024.
Venus transits Cancer, from 20:16 to 29:32°. Venus is outside the orb of influence of other planets. This is royal and favorable for women, romance, medicine, finance, luxuries, social media, weather, architecture, transportation, and the fine, healing and performing arts. Continue to be patient, however, as Venus is co-dependent on the strength of the fast-moving Moon, which frequently is weak or under adverse effects.
Saturn transits its own sign, Aquarius, from 08:16 to 07:16°. This is brings to the forefront discussions relative to the masses, the elderly, the poor and needy, agriculture, manufacturing, and “things of the earth”, along with the oil, gas and minerals industries.
Saturn is in retrograde motion until November 4. This is not a problem for most people. Cancer, Virgo, and Pisces rising sign persons, however, should be careful and patient whenever Saturn is within five degrees of their rising sign degree or any planet, in any sign or house, by aspect or conjunction.
Rahu and Ketu transit Aries and Libra, respectively, from 00:56 to 00:42°. Rahu and Ketu are now stationary in the zero-degree range until November 28th. This prolonged transit generally represents a stressful time worldwide. This is especially true for those persons, companies and countries with rising signs between 0 and 2 degrees, or with planets between 0 and 2 degrees in the odd signs (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, and Aquarius) – and/or for those with rising signs between 28 and 30 degrees, or with planets between 28 and 30 degrees in the even signs (Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces). In these cases, it is imperative to exercise care and patience for the duration.
The Impact of the Transit Planets for each “Rising Sign” (not “Sun Sign”)
Note: Transit planets should also be seen with reference to the position of the planets in your personal horoscope. In some cases, this will alter the predicted events.

Awakening Quote of the Week:
Buddha is a title, which can be conferred on anyone. Buddha comes from “Bu”, which means “Buddhi”, the intellect; and Dha comes from Adha, “one who is above.” In other words, “one who is above the intellect is a Buddha.” Once you are above the intellectual process, suffering is finished – because all suffering is in your mind. When you are stuck in your intellect, you are a non-stop suffering human being; you have a way of creating a multitude of suffering, such as fear, stress, tension and anxieties. To avoid suffering, people find ways to go below the intellect, such as food, drink, sex, money, etc. The only way out of suffering is to go beyond, not below, the intellect. – Sadhguru
