SEPTEMBER 14
This morning, the Sun-Neptune opposition perfects. We can feel directionless and not very up to facing everyday realities with this transit. The tendency to glamorize others or to put people on a pedestal can come to a head now, and this can extend beyond people to situations and objects. It’s a time for seeking a better balance between action and reflection. We are more sensitive and vulnerable under this influence but also quite prone to misperceiving people or situations. We might watch for projecting our unrealized dreams or wishes onto others. Willpower is low. It’s not a good time for major financial undertakings or formal agreements. The Moon continues its transit of Sagittarius until 13:34 AM when it enters serious Capricorn. This evening, the Sun and Saturn connect in a mildly challenging way, and we can become more aware of, or frustrated by, our limitations. Mars enters Libra today, where it will transit until October 30th. Mars is in its detriment in Libra (Libra opposes Mars-ruled Aries)–it’s not as comfortable in the sign as it is in most other signs and may not function at its best. We may be indirect in our approach and should watch for passive-aggressiveness during this cycle. Still, it’s a good time for actively seeking harmony and balance. We can work hard at finding compromises.
The void Moon occurs from 12:58 , with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Mars), until the Moon enters Capricorn at 13:34 .

Sun in Virgo You’re coming into a new cycle centered on taking what you know and what you’ve got and then making the most of it in the real world. Assimilating information and experience, learning lessons and putting them into practice – that’s the focus as this cycle unfolds. It’s a time for prudence and stewardship, a time to tend to the details. You probably already have the grand ideals and visions: now you must get your hands dirty with the bricks and mortar and your mind busy with putting it all together.
Mercury in Libra A new cycle begins for you, signaling a greater than usual interest in relationships, social connections, and the arts – on a more intellectual level than in the past, most likely. Seeing both sides of an issue, and figuring out resolutions to opposing views: these things take on more importance in your life.
Venus in Scorpio This is way beyond love, all the way to obsession – that’s the nature of the cycle that now takes hold in your life. We’re not talking just lukewarm WANT here; we’re talking red-hot GOT TO HAVE! Passion, jealousy, possession: these are the kinds of experiences that can flow from the intensity that courses through you at one level or another now – voracious.
Mars in Virgo As a new cycle dawns in your life, there arises a passion for details, a need to do just the right thing at just the right time, and a burning desire to have a place for everything and everything in its place. This can be hard on the digestion if taken to extremes! The satisfaction of a job well done is one of your greatest incentives now.
Mars in Libra “I’m giving you a definite maybe” – that’s the motto of the cycle you’re now entering. It’s a time of refinement and tact, of an urge to please others that is so strong as to make it hard to decide or act for fear of offending someone. You’ll quickly learn to balance this out, or you’ll discover that there is no peace in compromise – and this can be tough on close relationships. The trick is to find the win-win solution to the no-win situation – and if anyone’s ever up to it, you are now.
Jupiter in Aquarius Innovation, reform, and idealism are your paths to growth and gain now. New, futuristic ideas are part of this, but it’s much more than that: putting them into practice is essential because this is much more than empty idealism. A break from the past, a willingness to flaunt convention.
Saturn in Aquarius Ideals are in for a period of testing, as a new phase begins in your life. What are principles worth, unless they are put into practice? That’s an important question for you now. This could mean you may be disappointed by causes you believe in – but if you abandon your principles, you lose.
Uranus in Taurus Practicality and ingenuity combine as powerful drives in your life now that you have begun a new cycle. Taking innovative concepts and making them real and practical is your strong suit; getting stuck in the mud is to be avoided at all costs. Financial savvy, inventiveness, worldly genius.
Neptune in Pisces Things spiritual and psychic take the driver’s seat of your imagination as you begin a new cycle. The fine arts and all manner of fantasies assume a larger-than-life importance. Surrendering to fate, karma, and other powers greater than merely mortal may be seen as the ultimate liberation. If all is Maya (illusion), what is the reality that gives rise to the world of appearances?
Pluto in Capricorn As this new phase dawns for you, the pursuit of social/political power and status has a way of seeming necessary and inevitable – and let nothing stand in its way. It starts out small but has bigger consequences than you’d think. Ambition, responsibility, a place for everyone, and everyone in their place…
Calendrier Lunaire Septembre 2021
Quelques rendez-vous avec La lune
Pour le jardin avec la Lune :
Pour une meilleure conservation récolter les pommes entre le 15 et le 18 ou alors entre le 23 et le 28, en évitant le 24 matin et le 26 matin.
Tondre le gazon le 2*, 3, 4 ou le 10, 11* pour qu’il repousse moins vite (* meilleur avec étoile).Vendanger avec la Lune :
Pour un meilleur rendement effectuer les vendanges entre le 15 et le 28,
mais pour une meilleure conservation du vin, effectuer les vendanges entre le 2 et le 14.La Lune et les arbres :
Période de plantation du 2 au 14 ou alors après le 29.
Les animaux avec la Lune :
Déplacer le bétail du 14 au 28 (mais en évitant le 20 après-midi, 21 matin, 23 et le 26 matin) l’herbe sera moins abîmée.
Parer les pieds des animaux le 6, 24, 25, 27 ou 28 matin.
Les phases lunaires
La vision que nous avons de la Lune change constamment puisqu’elle tourne autour de la Terre. Sa surface éclairée visible varie ainsi progressivement de 0 % pour la nouvelle lune jusqu’à 100% pour la pleine lune.
Il faut exactement 29 j 12 h 44 min à la Lune pour aller d’une nouvelle lune à la nouvelle lune suivante. Ce cycle est connu sous le nom de révolution lunaire synodique .
Ce cycle est un des aspects les mieux connus de la Lune observée depuis la Terre, il comprend les phases lunaires suivantes :
Le cercle de lunes le plus proche de la Terre représente les principales positions de la Lune lors de son parcours autour de la Terre. À chacune de ces positions correspond un dessin (sur l’extérieur du cercle) qui représente la Lune telle que nous la voyons depuis la Terre lors de cette position donnée.
Quand la Lune se trouve entre la Terre et le Soleil, sa face éclairée n’est pas visible depuis la Terre, c’est ce qu’on appelle la nouvelle lune qui est symboliquement représentée par un disque noir. Puis en tournant autour de la Terre, la Lune va laisser apparaître un croissant lumineux qui augmentera petit à petit jusqu’à devenir un disque lumineux plein, c’est ce qu’on appelle la pleine lune, la Lune se trouve alors à l’opposé du Soleil par rapport à la Terre.
Influence du Périgée
Plus la Lune est proche de la Terre, plus son action sur les végétaux devient forte. Dans la plupart des cas, il est conseillé d’éviter de travailler le sol ou les plantes le jour même du périgée.
Après de nombreux essais comparatifs sur le terrain, nous avons pu constater que l’influence du périgée était de façon générale négative, cependant, certaines plantes n’étant pas perturbées, nous ne pouvons pas parler de perturbation systématique. Mais une perturbation ayant le plus souvent lieu, nous avons choisi par précaution d’indiquer le périgée comme négatif dans les courbes du Calendrier Lunaire.
Il arrive également que certains aspects planétaires viennent accentuer ou diminuer l’effet du périgée. La force et l’influence d’un périgée ne sont donc pas forcément les mêmes d’un mois à l’autre. Dans certains cas, la perturbation peut durer quelques heures seulement, alors que dans d’autres cas, elle peut durer beaucoup plus longtemps.
Cette influence agissant de façon progressive, nous ne pouvons indiquer de manière précise l’heure du début et de fin de cette période. Toutefois, nous avons constaté que d’une manière générale la perturbation commençait environ 4 à 5 heures avant le périgée, pour se terminer environ 3 à 4 heures après.
Apogee and Perigee of the Moon in Astrology, Gardening, and Weather Forecasting
Apogee and Perigee Definition
The definition is very simple: the apogee is the furthest from the Earth point of the Moon's orbit, and the perigee is the closest point. You might know that the orbit of the Moon around the Earth isn't circular, it's an ellipse, and when the Moon is in perigee, it is noticeably closer to the Earth and looks bigger.
It would be logical to assume that the strength of the Moon's influence, gravitational or any other, increases at perigee and decreases at apogee, but how exactly this increase will show itself in our life? Some of the most interesting and practical ideas come from a person who doesn't use any astrology: meet Ken Ring.
Apogee and Perigee in Weather Prediction
Ken Ring's approach is unique in its simplicity, and it is quite efficient at the same time, as Ken Ring was able to predict the recent strong earthquake in New Zealand. He doesn't use any astrology and explains everything through the gravitational influence of the Moon. You can read about Ken Ring's work in his book The Lunar Code. Apogee and perigee are some of the most important factors in Ken Ring's toolbox. Here are a few facts from The Lunar Code:
- Many, but not all, of the most severe events occur within a few days of perigee.
- Fishing is good just before perigee, hopeless right on perigee and good again just after.
- It has been noted that students seem to do better in exams when the Moon is in perigee, Full or New, and/or if gusty weather is occuring outside the exam room.
- If a First Quarter Moon coincides with a perigee, hurricanes are possible.
- When the summer Full Moon is in perigee or apogee, very warm temperatures may result.
- As well as being a major factor in ancient solunar fishing calendars (because fish feed ravenously just before and after it), perigee was always known and feared by ancient sailors because of the stormy weather and gales that invariably arrived. By far the greater number of cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons, volcanic eruptions, floods, heat waves and earthquakes in recorded history has been associated with a perigee or apogee.
- Apogee is curious, and behaves like perigee, bringing either mayhem or complete calm.
Apogee and Perigee in Lunar Gardening
Here the main authority is Maria Thun and her book Work on the Land and the Constellations. Here is what Maria Thun writes in this book on the apogee and the perigee:
When the Moon recedes from the Earth in the course of its monthly cycle, the effect on plant growth can in some ways be compared with that time of year when the Earth is furthest away from the Sun, i.e. midsummer; the tendency in the plant-world is then to run to seed, whereas the growth forces decrease. Thus the effect of the Moon's apogee on the seed plants can still be comparatively beneficial. For the sowing of leaf crops, however, this time is definitely unfavourable. Carrots sown during these days easily become woody. The only plant to react positively to being planted at apogee is the potato.
The Moon's perigee, which can be compared to midwinter when the Earth is nearer to the Sun, has a very different effect. If we prepare a seed bed on this day and sow our seeds, germination is poor. Most of these plants are somewhat inhibited in their growth and are also more subject to attacks from fungus diseases and pests. Apogee-days are mainly clear and bright, while those at perigee are mostly dull, heavy or rainy.
Apogee and Perigee in Astrology
It might be surprising, but apogee and perigee per se aren't mentioned in mainstream astrology. However, the speed of the Moon (which is measured in the number of degrees of the ecliptic the Moon covers in 24 hours) plays an important role in the traditional astrology. The Moon is the fastest in perigee and the slowest in apogee, so whenever you see in astrological literature a mention of the fast Moon, that's the Moon in perigee, and vice versa.
Typically, a fast planet is considered to be strong. It has more influence in the astrological chart (horoscope), be that chart natal or horary. If the Moon is slow in a horary chart, that is considered as a debility.
Some schools of astrology make use of so called Black Moon, or Lilith, and one of the popular versions of the location of this fictional planet is the apogee of the Moon. Therefore, whenever the Moon is in apogee in a natal chart, it is in fact in conjunction with Lilith, and this is typically interpreted in a negative way.
There are also schools of astrology that make use of the White Moon, and one of the popular versions of its location is the perigee of the Moon. The Moon in perigee therefore can be considered as in conjunction with the White Moon, and an interpretation given in such cases is typically very positive.
If I (occasionally) consider the Black or the White Moon when studying a natal chart, I prefer to follow the point of view that was formulated many years ago by a Russian astrologer Tatyana Romanova. If you can read in Russian, the original article about the Black and the White Moons can be found here. The general idea is that the Black Moon is the factor of separation while the White Moon is the factor of integration. As a basic example, a person who is unique, different from the others in one or another way, expresses the idea of the Black Moon, while a person who is indistinguishable from the surrounding people is a manifestation of the White Moon principle.

MARS ENTERS LIBRA
Mars is in Libra from September 14-October 30, 2021. We tend to use our charm as a means to an end under the influence of this cycle. Because we can see many different sides to an issue, we can be vacillating and indecisive about how to act. We don’t want to be the “bad guy”, and rarely resort to force. Instead, we attempt to win arguments with style. We are indirect in approach and inclined towards engaging in mental debates, yet we also attempt to make the opposition comfortable! Passive-aggressiveness is the shadow side of this energy.
Wednesday, SEPTEMBER 15
The Moon spends the day in resourceful, sensible, and earthy Capricorn. A Venus-Jupiter parallel inspires good feelings and the desire to give others the benefit of the doubt. Ideally, the Capricorn Moon keeps our feet on the ground today as we entertain big possibilities. We have a stronger desire than usual to find meaning in our relationships. There may be some overstating or overindulgence now, but our intentions are generally good. Taking the high road comes naturally. We’re keeping growth and discovery as priorities. This aspect highlights the need to allow our loved ones some freedoms and space to grow and improve. We’re making the best out of situations now. We have large appetites for love and pleasure, and generosity of spirit to match.
Thursday, SEPTEMBER 16
The Sun forms a quincunx to Jupiter this morning, and we can be feeling torn between two ideas or drives, perhaps see-sawing between alternatives. There can be some problems coming to satisfying conclusions. It’s a time of adjustments and possibly of letting go of old habits so that we can free ourselves up for different experiences.
Venus forms a sesquiquadrate with Neptune, and a Venus-Saturn square is exact early tomorrow, suggesting we’re wrestling with expectations with money, pleasure, and/or love. Questioning our faith can lead to a lack of follow-through. Ideally, this pushes us to connect with what’s truly meaningful to us. Financial restrictions may seem to block our plans, or we could feel a sudden lack of inspiration. We might need to face issues we’ve been avoiding or putting off or deal with money drains. It’s important to simplify and detoxify now.
Helping us with this is tonight’s Sun-Pluto trine. Delving deeply into a matter can be satisfying and rewarding. We’re exceptionally resourceful and efficient under this influence. It’s a strong time for gravitating towards people and situations that help us succeed or advance our goals. Shared goals and interests connect us with others. The focus now is on eliminating harmful elements in our lives, particularly in the pursuit of work or health goals, so we can advance with more conviction. This transit encourages cooperation, focus, and practical ability.
The Moon continues its transit of Capricorn until it moves into Aquarius at 11:23 AM EDT.
The void Moon occurs from 1:39 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Pluto), until the Moon enters Aquarius at 11:23 AM EDT.
Hurricane Nicholas makes landfall in Texas
Sep 14 2021
Hurricane Nicholas off the coast of the US state of Texas on Monday
Houston (AFP) - Hurricane Nicholas slammed into the Texas coast early Tuesday morning, with meteorologists warning of life-threatening flooding.
The storm was packing maximum sustained winds of 75 miles (120 kilometers) per hour, and was expected to dump up to 18 inches (around 460 millimeters) of rain in the Houston area, weather officials said.
The US National Hurricane Center wrote in its latest advisory that the storm landed at around 0530 GMT.
Earlier, the national monitor warned the storm was bringing “heavy rains, strong winds, and storm surges to portions of the central and upper Texas coasts”.
“Life-threatening flash flooding impacts, especially in highly urbanized metropolitan areas, are possible,” it added.
Between six and 12 inches of rainfall is expected in parts of Texas and western Louisiana. “This rainfall may produce areas of considerable flash and urban flooding,” the center said.
Early Tuesday morning the hurricane’s center was located above the eastern part of the Matagorda Peninsula, according to the Miami-based observatory.
Matagorda is just a few miles southwest of Houston, Texas’s largest city.
The NHC also issued a storm surge warning for much of the Gulf coast, meaning “there is a danger of life-threatening inundation, from rising water moving inland from the coastline.”
“This is a life-threatening situation,” it said, warning people in the area to “take all necessary actions to protect life and property.”
- Flights canceled -
Sylvester Turner, the mayor of Houston – parts of which were devastated by Hurricane Harvey in 2017 – said the city was on high alert.
Authorities have erected barricades, activated Houston’s office of emergency management and told residents to take extra safety precautions.
“I urge everyone to be OFF the roads by sun down and to avoid driving tonight through tomorrow as we anticipate heavy rainfall,” Turner tweeted.
Ahead of the storm’s arrival many flights were canceled at Houston-area airports, and the Houston ship channel at its busy port was closed, said a spokesman for the agency that steers ships through the waterway.
Schools closed Monday afternoon across the storm-affected area and will remain shut on Tuesday, officials said.
Customers rushed to gas stations and supermarkets across the region to fill fuel tanks and stock up on bottled water, toilet paper, and perishables such as milk and eggs.
Texas is no stranger to hurricanes, but scientists warn that climate change is making the storms more powerful, posing an increasing risk to coastal communities.
Coastlines are already suffering from flooding, which has been amplified by rising sea levels.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott had urged residents to prepare.
“It is up to all Texans in the path of this storm to take precautions, heed the guidance of officials, and remain vigilant as this severe weather moves through Texas,” he said in a statement.
