Your September 2026 Horoscope for Leo
by Susan MillerVenus retrograde is not the time to radically, dramatically change the color or cut of your hair, to start cosmetic dentistry, or to try out a new expensive line of skin care (you can do that now, in September, or delay until late November).
As luck would have it, Mercury will also retrograde next month from October 24 to November 13. (Yes, Mercury will go direct on the same day that Venus goes direct, November 13.)
Mercury will retrograde in Scorpio and your fourth house of home the entire time. If you are working on a renovation or waiting for furniture you ordered to be made and delivered, it will seem like you are waiting for Godot. (In the famous play, “Waiting for Godot,” Godot never shows up.) Only kidding—your furniture will come eventually, but it probably will take longer than you’d like. There is not much you can do about that, but keep in mind that delays will benefit you in the end.
Mercury is all about logic, facts, and communication. During Mercury retrograde, logic and communication go out the window, and sometimes it’s challenging to gather all the facts. This is why it is not wise to sign legal documents during Mercury retrograde.
When Mercury retrogrades, conditions are in flux. You won’t be able to know precisely how conditions will shift, and that’s part of the problem. You will have a clearer view after Mercury goes direct.
