Do you feel that, Stargazers? A slight chill in the breeze? The crunch of a few leaves under your feet? Autumn is here which means it’s Virgo Season! Tap into the abundance of Earth-sign energy by setting an intention each day this month. You don’t have to get too serious with it, just consider hitting snooze on your morning alarm 14 times instead of 15.

September 6 will feature a new moon in Virgo. On September 10, Venus enters Scorpio — careful, this is a notoriously messy celestial combination. On September 20 there is a full moon in Pisces, and we finish off the blessed month with the Fall Equinox on September 22, and Mercury’s last retrograde of the year on September 26. Turn up the Earth, Wind, & Fire on Spotify and be ready for a cozy month.
