This month Mars will be transiting your Natural 6th House of work, health and pets.  Of course the God of War usually isn't the friendliest planet on the block.  While he can deliver a lot of energy and drive, he can also stir things up, so depending on how he aspects your natal chart, you might encounter some problems on the job and you should be diligent about guarding your health and avoiding accidents.  This is even more likely during the first week of the month due to the fact that he'll be in square to Uranus, planet of upsets, surprises and unexpected events.  Needless to say, when something is squaring Uranus, you'd best be prepared for some crap.  Nonetheless, since Uranus is in your Natural 3rd House of mental activity, this could be more at the mental level than physical.  If your birthday falls between January 4 -8 you are even more likely to encounter something of note during this time.  As a fellow Cappy I assure you I don't particularly like this looming aspect, but I am simply conveying what the planets are up to, which does not imply my approval in any way.  I just call 'em as I see 'em. 

Venus goes direct in Leo, your Natural 8th House of intimate relationships, shared resources and transformations on September 7th.  She's been doing the backstroke in this neighborhood since July, which has probably brought some deep considerations in these areas to bear.  There probably isn't much point in my explaining the kind of things that have probably occurred since you are undoubtedly quite aware of them.  The good news is that when she rights herself, some of these uncomfortable issues will finally reach a resolution such that you can move on.  Whether it has been the relationship area, financial issues or both that have been nagging you most the summer, there's a lesson there that can have a transformational effect if you'll clean the wax out of your ears and listen to what the Universe is trying to tell you. 

A transformation is more than just learning a lesson or changing your attitude.  It is something that can affect your entire outlook on life or toward one of these areas.  Perhaps you'll finally realize that your needs and wants are different than you'd believed before or that you haven't been paying nearly enough attention to something that deserves far more attention than you've been investing.  Few things affect our lives more than intimate relationships and the resources we share with those closest to us and Cappies have a real propensity to concentrate too much on career and ambition and neglect these important elements.  Now is your chance to reassess these areas and perhaps institute a midcourse correction as required.  In this case, the fact that Uranus is throwing a quincunx to Venus around this same time can be further assistance to any adjustments that may be necessary to put this part of your life in order.  The Full Moon toward the end of the month in your Natural 4th House of home environment could indicate the culmination of something that has been going on in that part of your life that is probably related to these other important issues since it also throws a quincunx to Saturn.  It all ties together at some point, as you've probably already noticed.

More good news is that your Sign Ruler, Saturn, leaves Leo on September 3rd, which indicates that his work there is also done.  This should be cause for celebrations since it should serve to further lighten the load you've been feeling relative to these sensitive 8th House matters as his stern, authoritarian discipline with its emphasis on responsibility and obligation move into Virgo.  The New Moon eclipse on September 11th is also in Virgo, your Natural 9th House of higher education, legal matters, and long distance travel.  This, combined with Saturn's ingress to this sign, indicates there's some work to be done in this area, particularly with the Sun there as well until the 24th.  If you've been putting off or ignoring something that requires attention in this part of your life, it looks like the Universe is about to give you a nudge in that direction. 

This is not necessarily a bad thing in fellow Earth Sign, Virgo.  For one thing, being  of the same element, Virgo and Capricorn are in trine to one another, which is a much more harmonious aspect than when a planet is in Leo.  Capricorn exudes ambition whereas Virgo is all about hard work and organization.  This is thus a very good combination if you're pursuing something that has to do with furthering your education, getting your legal affairs in order, you're considering long distance travel or perhaps a move or possibly a combination.  Furthermore, with those 8th House issues put to rest, your concentration will be more focused toward taking care of business.  Mercury is priming the pump the first week by assisting with data gathering and communications in this area, which should help with your transition to this new emphasis as you close out your 8th House affairs.  Personally, I think you'll enjoy this new phase much more than you did the last as it's goals are more in keeping with your natural tendencies and talents; you're more comfortable here, if nothing else.  Saturn will be in Virgo for a little over two years, so whatever your goals happen to be during that time, his discipline and structure will be lending a helping hand that you would do well to reach out and grab.

Mercury spends the majority of the month in Libra, your Natural 10th House of career, community status, reputation and ambition.  If this sounds like comfortable territory, you're right, since the Universal 10th House resides in Capricorn.  Thus, communications and data gathering in this area should go well, another positive influence you should exploit while it's available.  This could undoubtedly tie in well with other issues going on in your life.  It doesn't always seem as if the planets and their ongoing cosmic dance are in our favor, but they really are, a fact that should become more obvious to you the next few months than it has in the past.  Cappies are serious by nature and you may tend to be a "cup is half empty" type of person, but the future for you is looking reasonably good, at least for the next several months.  Enjoy it while it lasts.
