Weekly Mundane Astrological Climate - Week of September 1 to 7, 2025

Introduction

You can view global aspects for any day and time using the Transits application, in simple chart mode after unchecking angular aspects in the form. Positions and aspects are calculated from Monday to Sunday at 12:00 PM UT.

The orb for major planetary aspects is set at three degrees. For the True North Node and Lilith, true positions are used. Minor aspects are excluded from interpretation due to their limited influence.

Planetary aspects shape the global context, influencing politics, economics, and social trends. Lunar aspects are not included here, as their brevity makes them too fleeting for a weekly analysis.

The same applies to the North Node, Lilith, and Chiron, whose influence through aspects remains insufficiently demonstrated.

This is not a personal horoscope but a form of mundane astrology highlighting planetary influence on a collective scale.

The week of September 1 to 7, 2025 opens under the methodical precision of the Sun in Virgo, highlighting organization, discipline, and efficiency. The atmosphere encourages moving forward in an orderly way, favoring realism and clarity in action. The Moon underscores these dynamics through its successive stages: in Sagittarius on Monday to broaden perspectives, in Capricorn on Tuesday and Wednesday to structure and consolidate, in Aquarius from Thursday to Saturday to innovate, and in Pisces on Sunday to deepen intuition and receptivity.

Three key moments mark the period: Wednesday 3, Mercury enters Virgo, redirecting thought toward analysis and precision; Saturday 6, Uranus turns retrograde in Gemini, initiating an inner reflection on innovation and new ideas; Sunday 7, Lilith retrograde enters Libra, shifting the focus of shadow zones toward relationships and the pursuit of balance and fairness.

In the background, the slow-moving planets continue their work of progressive transformation and revision of collective structures. They establish a climate of continuity that supports ongoing adjustments, to be combined with Virgo’s discernment and heightened vigilance in the face of the unexpected.

Planetary Positions and Aspects – Short-Term

Planetary Positions – Fleeting Influences

  • The Sun, from 9°19' to 15°08' Virgo, continues its work of analysis, method, and efficiency. The sextile with Jupiter in Cancer brings a breath of optimism and protection, supporting concrete efforts and well-organized undertakings. Vital energy serves precision, with a constant search for order and rigor.
  • Mercury, from 28°00' Leo to 9°33' Virgo, changes sign on Wednesday 3. In Leo, it still expresses an assertive and flamboyant style of communication, able to capture attention and persuade, but also exposed to the square with Uranus in Gemini, which heightens nervousness and reactivity. Once in Virgo, thought is redirected toward fine analysis, critical insight, and the ability to correct, sort, and clarify information.
  • Venus, from 8°10' to 15°23' Leo, evolves in an expressive and generous register. Relationships are animated with warmth, creativity, and a need for emotional radiance. Love is lived in a more demonstrative and enthusiastic way, encouraging significant gestures and impulses that seek to charm and attract with intensity.
  • The Moon, from 23°00' Sagittarius to 11°45' Pisces, sets the collective tone. In Sagittarius on Monday, it opens horizons and encourages momentum; in Capricorn on Tuesday and Wednesday, it invites structure and consolidation. In Aquarius from Thursday to Saturday, it stimulates openness to new ideas and perspective, while in Pisces on Sunday, it creates a more receptive, intuitive, and sensitive atmosphere.

Planetary Aspects of the Week – Short-Term Climate

  • Sun (Virgo) sextile Jupiter (Cancer) brings a constructive and protective atmosphere, where vitality and confidence reinforce each other. Concrete and methodical initiatives receive solid support, favoring growth, organization, and lasting success.
  • Mercury (Leo) square Uranus (Gemini) stimulates critical thinking and inventiveness, but may also provoke nervous exchanges or abrupt reactions. Ideas arise unpredictably, with sudden insights. On the positive side, this aspect favors intellectual breakthroughs and original solutions.
  • Mars (Libra) square Jupiter (Cancer) encourages action with energy and boldness, sometimes beyond real means. Overconfidence or haste can create tensions. When well managed, this dynamic fosters generosity, combativeness, and initiative.

Planetary Positions and Aspects – Longer-Term

Planetary Positions – Medium-Term Climate

  • Mars, from 16°14' to 20°09' Libra, acts in a relational and diplomatic register. Action favors balance, negotiation, and the right mix of firmness and tact, with a risk of dispersion if concessions become excessive.
  • Jupiter, from 17°58' to 19°00' Cancer, strengthens protection, cohesion, and loyalty to a secure framework. It amplifies nurturing impulses and solidarity, but can also reinforce defensive reflexes when faced with uncertainty.
  • Lilith retrograde, from 15°43'Я Scorpio to 29°09'Я Libra, changes sign on Sunday the 7th, entering Libra while continuing its retrograde phase. After a period in Scorpio focused on desire, control, and shadow zones, the emphasis shifts toward relational dynamics, fairness, and clarity in commitments.

Planetary Positions – Long-Term Climate

  • Saturn retrograde, from 29°59'Я to 29°33'Я Pisces, continues the revision of frameworks, rules, and commitments. This period favors patient consolidation, discipline, and clarification of long-term responsibilities.
  • Uranus, from 1°27' to 1°28'Я Gemini, turns retrograde on Saturday the 6th. This shift directs its innovative energy inward: a time for maturing ideas, reassessing intellectual choices, and integrating before new collective breakthroughs.
  • Neptune retrograde, from 1°21'Я to 1°12'Я Aries, sustains a quest for ideals and renewal. Imagination is stimulated, but the challenge is to distinguish enlightened intuition from alluring illusions.
  • Pluto retrograde, from 1°46'Я to 1°40'Я Aquarius, continues the deep transformation of collective structures. Systemic flaws become visible, paving the way for slow yet decisive mutations.
  • Chiron retrograde, from 26°42'Я to 26°31'Я Aries, extends the inner work on wounds tied to identity and self-assertion. This period supports healing, integration of experiences, and the strengthening of confidence.
  • The True North Node retrograde, from 18°24'Я to 18°20'Я Pisces, guides the collective trajectory toward inner learning, reassessing common choices, and assimilating experiences.

Long-Term Planetary Aspects – Enduring Trends

For this week of September 1 to 7, 2025, there is no change compared to the previous week.

  • Retrograde Saturn (Aries) sextile Uranus (Gemini) embodies a rare synergy between order and innovation. This planetary combination offers an ideal ground for patient yet bold reforms, where structure adapts without breaking, and progress fits within realistic frameworks. On a global scale, it can support the implementation of innovative public policies or the modernization of long-standing institutions, provided internal tensions are managed through a coherent vision.
  • Retrograde Saturn (Aries) conjunct Retrograde Neptune (Aries) marks a moment of crystallization between spiritual aspiration and the demands of reality. This aspect urges the embodiment of high ideals in tangible projects, shaping an ethical or mystical vision into concrete commitments. It can signal the emergence of charismatic leaders driven by a collective mission or the creation of socially symbolic structures, but it calls for caution against overly seductive illusions or rigid utopias.
  • Retrograde Saturn (Aries) sextile Retrograde Pluto (Aquarius) supports deep but well-framed transformations of power systems. It allows collective changes to be anchored in stable foundations by combining strategic clarity with constructive patience. This climate favors lasting institutional reforms, the overhaul of governance mechanisms, or the establishment of new social norms that meet the demands of the contemporary world.
  • Uranus (Gemini) sextile Retrograde Neptune (Aries) unites the quest for inspiration with the drive for progress. It creates a climate conducive to meaningful technological advances, linking collective intuition with concrete innovation. This configuration encourages bridges between science and spirituality, between digital networks and human awareness, between idealism and social efficiency. It carries within it the seeds of new ways to envision solidarity or education in the digital age.
  • Uranus (Gemini) trine Retrograde Pluto (Aquarius) activates a powerful dynamic of societal regeneration. This is an aspect of calm yet determined revolution, where changes naturally take hold in areas related to technology, shared governance, or collective infrastructures. It emphasizes the transformation of communication systems, the rise of new forms of collective intelligence, and the profound questioning of established paradigms.
  • Retrograde Neptune (Aries) sextile Retrograde Pluto (Aquarius) works deeply on the collective unconscious. This underlying current fosters the emergence of new worldviews, often gently breaking away from previous models. It supports a transformation of shared beliefs, a symbolic renewal of political or spiritual ideals, and a gradual change in the invisible structures underpinning societies. The deep movements it triggers may remain unnoticed for a long time before profoundly reshaping the collective imagination.

Conclusion

The week of September 1 to 7, 2025 is imbued with a climate of method and clarity inspired by the Sun in Virgo. Between supportive currents and occasional tensions, it encourages finding the right balance, bringing order, and channeling energy toward concrete and realistic goals.

The slow-moving planets highlight the continuity of deep transformations, and three notable shifts with Mercury in Virgo, Uranus retrograde in Gemini, and Lilith retrograde in Libra mark a stage of intellectual and relational readjustment. This period is favorable for refining choices, balancing exchanges, and integrating ongoing changes with greater clarity.
