Moon, Venus and Regulus Alignment - 19 September 2025

On 19 September 2025, the pre-dawn sky offers a rare and powerful conjunction: the crescent Moon, brilliant Venus, and Regulus (the brightest star in Leo), cluster near the eastern horizon. This is a moment to connect with cosmic energies for emotional clarity, courage, and liberation of both self and the collective.

Ruled by Cancer, the Moon governs emotions, intuition, and inner reflection. Its presence encourages us to acknowledge our feelings and embrace emotional truth.

Venus is ruled by Taurus and Libra; she amplifies love, beauty, harmony, and heart-centered energy. It’s our time to nurture self-love as well as a compassionate connection with others.

The star Regulus lies in Leo and is known as the Heart of the Lion. For Britain, under the sign of the Lion, this holds a special significance - but it symbolises courage and leadership, and the strength to help us to stand boldly in our truth for all of us.

The Moon will be waning, closing out the Barley Moon cycle that began with the striking red Blood Moon eclipse on September 7th. It feels fitting that this conjunction carries forward the same theme of release and liberation that was seeded at the full moon.

This alignment is likely to be felt more keenly by Librans, Leos, and Cancerians. Be aware, particularly if you are a Libran or a Taurean, the moon will technically be eclipsing Venus for a short while, so if you are feeling disconnected from love don’t worry – it’s temporary.

Even if you can’t observe the alignment, the energy of this moment is cosmically present for all of us and lasts many hours – please see the map and times in the illustrations. We can all benefit by working with this celestial trifecta of heart, intuition, and courage during this special day.

Think about:

What principles you want to live by…

What is true for you…

Where you need to be brave…

Where you share love that will benefit everyone around you like ripples in a cosmic pond…

This is a great time to step into our freedom, nurture love, and shine authentically, carrying the liberation force forward into our daily lives.

We can all take a power boost from this energy by setting intention, meditating, or performing a ritual.

Here are some ideas for working with this alignment.

Pre-dawn Sky Watch (if visible): Step outside, face east, and breathe while observing the Moon, Venus, and Regulus. Imagine their light filling your heart with love, clarity, and courage.

Ritual of Liberation & Love: Write down anything you are ready to release—fears, limiting beliefs, old patterns. Visualise the Moon softening your heart, Venus infusing love, and Regulus igniting courage. Send this energy outward, connecting your liberation with the collective movement for freedom and truth, echoing the Blood Moon’s message.

Heart-centered Meditation: Visualise a golden-red light linking the Moon, Venus, and Regulus with your own heart. Focus on releasing what no longer serves you, opening to love, and stepping into your authentic power.

This is a moment to align heart, mind, and courage, carrying the Blood Moon’s energy forward freedom, truth, and love as we move through September and beyond.
