Virgo Weekly Horoscope | September 21st – September 27th, 2026
We often talk about making our dreams come true, but there are times when it’s our dreams that make us come true. As an earth sign you’re not a big believer in visualization. It sounds too much like daydreaming, which is what escapists do when they should be hard at work; however, focusing on work instead of your vision for the future is like putting the cart before the horse. They say if you want to know God, then build an altar and the Deity will come. Putting your dream before drudge work is not only inspirational, it also shows you where to go.

Nothing short of your personal best will do while Mars is in your sign. It doesn’t matter if you’re running for president or competing in a Bake-Off, if you can think of a way to improve your performance, you’ll do it. You won’t wait to see what others think or ask them for their advice. You’ll have little patience for a cautious, studied approach. Why settle for progressing inch by inch when you can score a big touchdown or a home run? Indeed, given your love of excitement, the more down-to-the-wire things get, the better! Mars will be in Leo from September 27th to November 25th.

Things come to a boil when there’s a Full Moon in Aries on September 26th. That’s because Aries is ruled by Mars, the now-or-never planet. This can only mean that a critical matter is reaching the point of no return. If you like how developments are shaping up, then this is the time to put the pedal to the metal because you can’t afford to be one foot in and one foot out. Aries energy demands full-throttle commitment. However, if you don’t like where things are heading, then you need to get out while the getting’s good. Hesitate and it will be too late.

You’ll be surprised by how effortlessly things fall into place this week. You could run into the very person you’ve been wanting to see, find what you’ve been searching for for months on Etsy, or be bumped up in line thanks to a last-minute cancellation. Your Ruling Planet Mercury has always had a “sixth” sense for ins and outs, but what happens when it sextiles Jupiter is that these actually wind up leading somewhere. Needless to say, this is also a good time for buying and selling. Not only will you strike a great deal, you may even walk away with a handsome profit.

Mars, planet of strife, moves into that part of your solar chart that pertains to house and home on September 27th. Life with family members has been strained and this could transform what’s left of your peaceful sanctuary into an occupied territory. Since you know you can’t win, you might as well let loved ones know where you stand. Tell them you don’t appreciate their bitchy quips, the free-floating anger, and the way you’re made to feel like you have to walk around on eggshells. Yes, they’ll be upset, but at least you’ll get tensions out in the open where they can be addressed.

Your Ruling Planet Mars enters Leo this week. Normally associated with conflicts and strife, Mars takes on a more commanding air when traveling through the zodiac sign of the lion. In fact all you have to do is indicate that you want something and people will rush to get it for you. They may even let you cut in line, offer up that last slice of cake, or gift you a piece of clothing saying it looks better on you anyway. This isn’t something that usually happens, so it will take some getting used to. Mars will be in Leo from September 27th until November 25th.

Mars in your horoscope is charged with getting you what you want. Just say “that’s what I want” and Mars is on the case. It’s as simple as that. Unfortunately, a lot of us aren’t as upfront as Mars is. We might see something we like and talk ourselves out of it because we feel like it’s beyond our means, or we manufacture excuses as to why this isn’t the right time, or we shy away from it because we’re afraid of rejection. Then again there are those of us who want something only because somebody else has it. Leo is famously upfront about its wants and needs and Mars in this sign is bold and audacious. Bold because Leo is lion-hearted and audacious because Mars in Leo believes that you deserve it. Yet in order to make this energy work, you have to be personally invested in your pursuit. If you’re too humble or ambivalent, then it’s not going to work; but if you ask for something you know is right for you, then it will fit you as comfortably as Cinderella’s glass slipper because you’re simply claiming what was meant for you all along. Mars will be in Leo from September 27th until November 25th.

If things aren’t coming together in the way that you would like, then that could mean you’re trying too hard to force a fit, which is never a good thing. If deadline pressures are forcing you to come up with a solution, even if it’s only a temporary one, then you must slow down and take whatever time is necessary to complete your assignment. This could make a supervisor see red, but you need to ignore that because the simple truth is it’s more cost-effective to get things right the first time than it is to go back and try to fix it later.

People often project the things they don’t like about themselves onto others in order to escape what they see staring back at them in the mirror. Some are unconscious of this while others go about it with the force of a military campaign. The Venus/Pluto square on September 15th shows you being targeted by someone looking to dump their frogs and snakes onto your plate. Maybe they believe what they say or maybe they’re distracting people from looking at them by pointing at you. You’ll feel tempted to explain yourself, but don’t. Pluto in your sign works better than any deflector shield could.

Sometimes the only way we can see things for what they are is when the planets are opposite us in the sky. It comes from the fact that the planets we view overhead at night are often the ones traveling furthest away from the Sun. This allows us to absorb and reflect, which is always a good idea when Mercury is opposite Saturn. Truth doesn’t have to be harsh to set you free; it just has to be true, as you’ll realize on September 18th. And now that you know what you know, you’ll have no problem taking the necessary steps to do what’s right.

You’ll want to kick over the traces and gallop off when the Moon in Sagittarius squares the Sun in Virgo on September 18th, but this is not the way to go. The Moon, planet of the unconscious, houses our instincts, emotions, and memories. The typical reaction for the Moon in Sagittarius when faced with a situation it doesn’t like is to bolt, but there comes a time when you need to rein it in. Do something different and sit down for an in-depth conversation instead. There’s no freedom in starting over again somewhere else; real freedom comes from changing the habitual response of a lifetime.

How do you deal with someone who’s convinced you’re playing them for a fool? Tactfully. Usually you’re the one obsessing over inconsistencies in the story as you fire off accusations, so it’s weird to be in this position. Thankfully, you know what they’re feeling and have the patience and sensitivity to put them at ease. There’s definitely a shoe-is-on-the-other-foot quality to a Venus/Pluto square (September 15th), but it’s meant to teach you what it’s like to be the object of somebody else’s desire. It’s a new role, but one you’ll handle more compassionately than others have with you in the past.
