 Final comment

September 17, 2026, presents itself as a Thursday with two souls : on the one hand, the Moon in Sagittarius ignites enthusiasm and the desire to look ahead, on the other, the presence of Saturn retrograde in trine encourages you not to rush things and to give structure to your projects . Mercury's sextile favors effective communication: it's an excellent time to negotiate, explain your reasons, and clear up misunderstandings.

However, the opposition between the Moon and Uranus can create sudden mood swings or unexpected events, especially in the Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) . Chiron's return to Aries symbolically marks the beginning of a period of healing old wounds related to identity and self-affirmation.

In short: a favorable day for those who combine intuition and strategy , less so for those who give in to impulsiveness. The stars suggest arguing calmly, listening to your heart without losing your head, and not rushing . As Paolo Fox would say: "Don't believe the horoscope, but verify!"
