What’s Shifting in the Stars This Week?
22 September, 2025
The week begins just after the Solar Eclipse in Uttara Phalguni on September 21, a karmic reset around commitments, relationships, and purpose. With the intensity of eclipse energy still lingering, this is a time for quiet integration rather than rushing forward.
The Sun and Mercury (exalted) together in Virgo bring sharp clarity, organization, and practical focus. Venus remains with Ketu in Leo, keeping relationships and desires under karmic review. Mars in Libra emphasizes cooperation and balance in action, while Jupiter in Gemini (Punarvasu) sustains cycles of renewal through learning. Saturn retrograde in Pisces (Uttara Bhadrapada) continues its slow restructuring, and Rahu in Aquarius keeps collective vision at the forefront.
This is a week of grounding and steady effort, where patience becomes strength.
