With Jupiter entering its retrograde phase on September 4, Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains what each star sign can expect next week
For many of us, the past six weeks have been a journey deep into our hearts, as Venus travels through her retrograde period in the sign of Leo. If the past weeks have triggered you into becoming more reflective of your relationship with love, money and personal values—you are right on schedule. Themes related to your self-expression, creativity and capacity to remain open-hearted could have been active as well.
As Venus stations direct again on September 4, these reflections finally have the space to land, and we could find our connection to our heart’s desire stronger than ever before. Now is the time to collect all the new insights, and make choices that feel the most correct, supportive and nourishing. This could be committing to a new way of loving, incorporating self-love affirmations into your morning routine or being more mindful of how you spend and receive money.

On the same day, Jupiter enters his retrograde phase. With all outer planets now in retrograde (Pluto, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus and Jupiter), it is the perfect time to reflect on the bigger picture in life, contemplating questions such as: What is the life I wish to create for myself? What are the steps I can begin taking to achieve my goals? Is the path that I am currently on reflective of my deepest desires?
Further clarity could be found on September 6 when Sun and Mercury unite in the sign of Leo. This day offers moments of epiphanies as the universe drops “aha” moments into your awareness. There is nothing specific that you need to do apart from remaining open to the wisdom that arises from your heart. It may be helpful to journal your thoughts or brainstorm with a friend who shares your vision in life.
