The end of August might have brought you joyous news in regard to your home, other property, or a family member. All that happened then will continue and intensify as you enter September. Keep your eye on home as an area of considerable luck in the coming twelve months - it's the part of your chart that is shining brightest. Although you will have an entire twelve months from now for home-related good fortune, Mars will make a rare appearance in your home sector from September 24 to November 12 to help you materialize your dream quickly.

A solar eclipse - also a new moon - will occur on September 12-13 and open the door for opportunity in this same area of your chart, regarding plans you may have for your home and other property, and for family, most notably your parents. This eclipse will be friendly, for it will be in perfect angle to Saturn, planet of stability. If you buy or rent, or plan to move in the two weeks that follow this eclipse, you will likely "stay put" a very long time, and that tends to suggest you'll love the space. Pluto will also be helpful, indicating the funds you need to make your changes will be sent to you if you ask or apply for that money. A new day is dawning in your home, dear Gemini.

You also may have already received spectacular news concerning your career at the full moon August 29, but if not, you will likely hear the exciting news during the first days of September. With the full moon orbiting with Neptune, you are likely to have your face in the media, through a TV interview or photograph attached to a complimentary story.

One day that you will have an outstanding time if you are on the road will be September 1-2, when Venus will make her monumental link to Mars, a highly romantic aspect. This linking of two cosmic lover planets will happen one more time in 2015 (quite unusual to have two dates) on November 2 - not in your travel sector, but later, in your home sector. The latter date would be ideal for giving a party. That's a Monday, so give your party over the preceding weekend, October 31, Halloween! Start planning now. This month, a trip would brim with happy surprises on September 22.

Mercury will be retrograde this month from September 17 to October 9, so you'd be wise to get your most important projects finished as early as you can this month. You will see things slow down steadily as you get closer to mid-month. Mercury will be in Libra, filling your house of romance. If you hope for a reconciliation with a past love, this use the coming Mercury retrograde period to contact your former sweetheart so you can find out if you both can make a go of things again.

Speaking of sleepy retrograde planets, Venus has been retrograde since July 25, so in the intervening time, it was not a time to take risks with your looks (such as to radically change your hair color or style), or to venture forward too quickly in a romantic relationship. Venus will move forward on September 6, and almost immediately you will see your love life improve steadily. Once you get to next month, October 9, Venus will be in even stronger shape, as all planets need time to get back to former strength after having been in retrograde mode. If you want to be sure Venus will be in ideal condition, say, because you will try plastic surgery, wait until after October 10 to act. (Mercury will be direct then too!)

Continuing the discussion about a friend, one friend close to you will be the focus of the full moon lunar eclipse, September 27. Often at eclipse time, a friend will bow out of your environment, perhaps because your friend is getting married or moving to a distant location. See what happens, but it appears you will find ways to stay in touch, as Saturn will again be friendly and encouraging. Pluto will also be in the neighborhood, and although not as close to the eclipse as Saturn, Pluto will be close enough to send gifts of power and financial smarts. If you are going into business with a friend, the outlook is positive. If you need capital, you can find what you need to get started from a bank, venture capitalist, or other source.
