What are the stars trying to tell you today? (Picture: Metro.co.uk)

It’s a new month, and September is shaping up to be a big one in the world of astrology.

Today, some signs may be feeling vulnerable due to a Mars/Saturn angle, so look out for awkwardness, communication issues or stalling progress.

Capricorn may struggle with restlessness due to these roadblocks, while Pisces’ dreamy nature could see them getting in their own way when it comes to making decisions.

Ahead, you’ll find all the star signs’ horoscopes for September 1, 2023. Read on for your full forecast

Aries

March 21 to April 20

You have high hopes, but someone may take great pleasure in putting you off. The question is whether you should believe them or not. While you don’t have to write off your plan, their words might encourage you to think again about the practicalities of what you’re attempting.

If it really is too much at this stage, then simplifying it could be the answer. At least it will be a start, Aries.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Can’t make progress? Don’t be afraid to admit to it, Taurus. If you seem to be facing difficulties and more appear to be on the way, take a step back and reconsider.

Yet despite this, you may be eager to grasp an opportunity that could be very good for you. Wait a day or so, as it’s important to get your bearings before you decide. Plus, it may come together slowly, but it can be worth it.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

There’s an awkward Mars/Saturn angle on the go. But with Mars in airy Libra, this can water down the intensity and turn this red-hot planet into a less feisty energy.

You may want to push ahead with something urgent, but doubts can dilute your focus and intention. However, they could also serve as a way to highlight your worst fears and to prove to yourself that they are just that.

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

You may be over-cautious in one area of life, and yet more than ready to go with the flow in another. If you’re finding a limiting situation too uncomfortable, the temptation to drop it could be strong. And yet this phase is only temporary, and you’ll soon feel more determined and confident, Cancer.

For now, treading a middle path may help you avoid getting into difficulty.

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Your plans and goals could meet with resistance from someone who may be unwilling to change their perspective. If they refuse to co-operate at all, then perhaps you should stop trying and pursue your own course of action.

Try focusing on those things you can do now. A to-do list of tasks that are small and easily accomplished could get things moving and keep you upbeat, Leo.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Need a pep talk, Virgo? If you want someone to give you confidence to overcome an obstacle, then be careful who you choose. Someone could paint a picture that makes it seem so easy, you’ll be raring to go. Someone else might make it seem so hard you’ll feel like not bothering.

The truth is something in-between. It will take a lot of effort, but you’re more than up to the task.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

An edgy Mars/Saturn link can be a reminder to discuss something gently, as someone close may feel more vulnerable than usual. Plus, with Uranus newly retrograde, you might be ready to speak out as a way of unburdening yourself. Even so, if you apply your usual tactful approach things could turn out better. It will keep this relationship on an even keel during key conversations.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Thoughts and feelings may be intense, making it harder to maintain a diplomatic approach to a key issue or certain person.

Even if you know what you want to say, something can prevent you from being as honest as you would like. Yet there are times when it pays to be truthful, no matter how awkward. This may be one of them, and doing so could really clear the air, Scorpio.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

With assertive Mars angling towards sobering Saturn, trying to get something completed could be quite a struggle. And it might remain this way for a few days yet. The more your push, the more resistance you seem to meet with.

Instead of exhausting yourself, let it all go and allow things to work themselves out. You never know, it might come together much more easily.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

You are generally a down to earth person, but could be very restless if things aren’t working out. You may feel better if you get moving, whether this means a gentle walk or something more aerobic. And if you do, you’ll find it easier to settle and get on with those things you can get done.

It might not be what you had in mind, but it will give the boost you need, Capricorn.

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

With Mars in Libra aligning awkwardly with Saturn in Pisces, the fun of a trip or glorious opportunity could be cut short because of the price.

You may be in two minds about going ahead because it’s just too much. And yet you could change your mind in a day or so, once you’ve had a chance to think things through. When you realise how much you’ll get back, it’s a no-brainer.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

You could be your own worst enemy Pisces, as an awkward Mars/Saturn angle suggests you’re the one holding yourself back. You may be enthused by a chance to take a relationship further, or to collaborate with another on a project, but also feel a tad apathetic about going ahead.

You don’t have to commit to anything right away. Consider your options and choose what feels best.
