"We question free will, doubt it, dismiss it, experience it. We declare our own triviality on a small speck of dirt circling a small star at the rim of one countless galaxies and ignore the heroic insolence of the declaration. We have diminished the world of God and man in a universe ablaze with all the glories that contradict that diminution."
-- William Golding

This Week's Horoscope for Virgo by Eric Francis Coppolino

With Mercury, Mars and the Sun moving through your birth sign, and the New Moon approaching, you're likely to be feeling the heat. That might be in the form of life being busier than even you are comfortable with, though with the lurking pressure to get it all done. Here is a clue. You only have to get certain things done -- not everything. Be selective; use boundaries such as time and money, and consider your priorities from a spiritual perspective. Then do the most important things first, one at a time, and the others will follow in the momentum that you create. Wednesday's New Moon may come with some unexpected and potentially positive financial news, though you will want to review offers, contracts, and tax documents carefully. If a partner is involved, make sure they understand the scenario and have a voice in making any decisions, which can wait until after the Sun changes signs on Friday.

If Your Birthday is Sept. 19
(The Day of Fine Appearance) | Virgo Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
If you want the freedom to begin a new phase of your life, it will help if you tie up the loose ends from prior phases. Fresh starts are based on being unimpeded by the past: done with your commitments, emotional attachments released and, most of all, your mind in the present, looking ahead. You now have the perfect leverage to make all of this real.

Written in the Planets
If you're one of the people for whom the shadow periods on either side of Mercury's recent retrograde have been more challenging than the actual retrograde, some relief should come today. Mercury finally leaves the section of the zodiac where it has ambled back and forth, and enters new territory in mid-Virgo. Take a deep breath, and take a new step. In addition, Venus enters Virgo today. You can think of this as a reminder to be intentional about offering warmth and compassion to others. It's rare that being critical of loved ones serves anything other than the speaker's need to project their own pain or insecurity onto someone else. If you hear a call to service, heed it with a touch of humility and grace.

In the Shadow of the Moon, the exciting 2017 Midyear Reading by Eric Francis, is now published. Although the video readings for all 12 signs use the Great American Eclipse of Aug. 21 as a starting point, Eric develops the themes through some of the most important astrological events you'll encounter in the remainder of 2017 and beyond. We'll be increasing the price again very soon, so don't hesitate to order your copy here. You can also now choose your individual signs here.

Daily Horoscope for September 19, 2017 | By Eric Francis Coppolino

If Today is Your Birthday

If you want the freedom to begin a new phase of your life, it will help if you tie up the loose ends from prior phases. Fresh starts are based on being unimpeded by the past: done with your commitments, emotional attachments released and, most of all, your mind in the present, looking ahead. You now have the perfect leverage to make all of this real. You share a birthday with William Golding, Cass Elliot, and Jimmy Fallon.

Aries (March 20-April 19) -- Work relationships are some of the most important in the lives of Americans, for whom work is so central. You know who you can be entirely sincere with, and that same person may be something of a mentor or teacher. Bring all your respect and appreciation to your conversations today.

In the Shadow of the Moon, the exciting new 2017 Midyear Reading by Eric Francis, has just been published. Don't miss this essential guide to life after the Great American Eclipse. Order all 12 signs here (recommended), or choose your individual signs.

Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- Today’s New Moon falls in the most adventurous angle of your solar chart, though you’re typically the kind of person who thinks through each and every risk forwards and backwards. However, you can really trust your intelligence and intuition, and not worry so much.

Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Often, the source of anger or disquiet is the subtle feeling of being lied to. Keep that in mind over the next few days. However, it’s vital that you first acknowledge your hunches, and then verify them before making any accusations. You may need to remind yourself of this repeatedly.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Our civilization is based on the written word, whether we’re talking about law, philosophy or literature. One sad fact of our time in history is that the value of literacy is being lost, though you remain one of its strong points; you’re a kind of holdout, which is an anchor for your humanity.

This is a unique year for you, Leo. The biggest events, of course, were the recent total solar eclipse in Leo and its companion lunar eclipse in your relationship house (Aquarius). But that pair of events was only the beginning -- and Eric designs each Birthday Reading to cover all your most pivotal astrology well into next year.

Are you navigating changes in your relationships or family paradigm? Do you find yourself at a career crossroads? Are you seeking clarity, encouragement and new perspectives on your creativity, self-esteem, sexuality or healing process? You'll find ideas and reassurance in this reading.

"I have just listened to your Part 1 and Part 2 readings and I am amazed at how accurate it has been. Like you have a telescope watching me shed a skin and transform into a totally changed person in the last 10 years."
-- Pauline Jones

Your reading is now priced at $44 and we've just published it in full; so you'll want to order your 2017 Leo Reading very soon -- definitely before the price increases again. This reading is designed to work for anyone with Leo Sun, Leo rising and even Leo Moon -- and makes an amazing gift.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- You are responsible for how you feel about yourself. You may have discovered your tendency to send yourself negative messages, and you’ve surely discovered the power of sending yourself positive ones. Yet underneath these messages or ideas there is a truth, which is that your worth is not up for negotiation.

Your 2017-18 Leo Birthday Reading by Eric is now complete and available for instant access. This is a seminal year for Leo Sun, rising and Moon, especially with the recent powerful solar eclipse in your sign. Make this dynamic energy work for you -- order your reading today.

Virgo Birthdays 2017:

Find Your Passion for Growth

"If you're getting the message to grow and to become, find your passion for growth. Passion means feeling, beauty, angst, love, confusion, pain and discovery: the things you discover in every meaningful endeavor."
-- Eric Francis Coppolino in the 2017 Book of Your Life reading for Virgo

Dear Reader with Virgo Sun, Rising or Moon:

What messages to "grow and become" did you receive between the two August eclipses? Are you still trying to figure that out, or maybe planning your next steps?

Recent weeks have been interesting and intense for just about everyone, though it's possible they've felt especially curious for you.

On Sept. 5, you had the unique experience of your ruling planet, Mercury, stationing direct in the same cryptic, hidden-away section of your chart where the total solar eclipse occurred on Aug. 21. This Wednesday, Sept. 20, brings a powerful Virgo New Moon directly opposite Chiron. All of it comes together to begin your next year in dynamic ways -- ways that will ripple out and develop in the months to come, aided by other significant astrology in the process. For example, major planets are gearing up to change signs (among other things).

Eric gets into all of this and more in your 2017-18 Virgo Birthday Reading. Created to help you steer through the next 12 months and beyond, Eric presents the two astrology segments (at least 30 minutes each) and tarot reading in accessible, inviting language. He'll offer motivation and inspiration for all the challenges and opportunities you may encounter in your intimate relationships, family structure, career, creativity, spiritual and sexual healing and much more.

"You guide but also ask the listener to engage with their lives. Humans don't just get transformation for free and you are very precise in telling us where to look."
-- Shelley Stearns

How will you activate your potential and passion to grow and become? You can start by ordering your Virgo Birthday Reading -- recently published and currently at just $44 for some of the clearest, most immediately useful astrology you can find on the internet.

May Mercury smile upon you in all that you do.

Yours & truly,

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- Today’s New Moon in your birth sign is your personal invitation to do that rare thing and move on with your life. It may seem like everyone except you has turned over a new leaf. You had old business to attend to, and you did your best to wrap it up. It’s time to point yourself forward.

Your 2017-18 Virgo Birthday Reading by Eric contains insightful and accurate guidance that you can use to understand your personal gifts and ignite your potential. Order your birthday reading now and get instant access.

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- Today’s New Moon represents a turning point for you, though it may take some time to notice what’s actually happening. However, one property of the moment is that your innermost thoughts have an influence over the direction of your life. And your dreams will be particularly revealing.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- Check in with partners and collaborators and make sure they’ve said everything they need to say. You might do this gently, recognizing the vulnerability involved. You may already know what they want to say, though of course it must come from them, in their own words.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- Today’s New Moon in your career house is a symbol of transitions. The thing to begin with is some new goals. Ask yourself what you’ve never achieved, and make a top-five list. Remember that many of your prior goals are still works in progress, though it’s time to start thinking ahead.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- Today is an excellent day to commit to a long-term plan you’ve been developing for a while. Commitment means you’ve come to an understanding that this is the thing you need to do. Set a loose timetable and sketch out the steps to getting there, in pencil, and with an open mind.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- The time has come to clear certain old accounts: to forgive debts and transgressions, to let go of old plans, and to call yourself fully into the present moment. You actually do have the power to do this, directing the course of your life with conscious, thoughtful decisions.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Today’s New Moon in Virgo represents a step forward in your shared life with others. There’s an old mantra that I love, and it goes: “Opening doors, closing doors, I’m not afraid, it’s only change.” You might meditate on that today and over the next few days, and calmly make it real.
