# Jupiter transits and September 2026 celestial events > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/20260828-jupiter-astrological-transits-and-zodiac-influences > Updated: 2026-09-06T19:44:19.000Z. Sources: 34. Developments: 6. Astrological predictions indicate that Jupiter’s movements through 2026 and 2027 will influence various zodiac signs. In August 2026, Jupiter is expected to enter the Ashlesha Nakshatra in Cancer, a transit lasting until October 31, 2026. This period is associated with intuition and strategic growth, potentially benefiting Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Pisces, and Aries, while presenting challenges for Sagittarius. Following this, Jupiter’s transit into Leo, which began in late June 2026, is described as a period of creative potential and visibility. In September 2026, this transit is expected to continue bringing growth and visibility to Cancer, Leo, and Scorpio. Planetary shifts in September are noted to influence personal matters regarding finance, career, and relationships for signs such as Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. A specific alignment between Jupiter and Saturn between August 31 and September 6 is noted for its impact on financial stability and long-term planning for Taurus, Libra, Sagittarius, and Capricorn, while Aquarius may see relationship developments. Spiritual and astrological focus in September also centers on the 9/9 numerological portal, interpreted as a time for “spiritual cleansing” and the conclusion of old cycles. The New Moon in Virgo, occurring around September 10–11, is identified by the U.S. Naval Observatory and NASA as scheduled for September 11 at 03:27 UTC. Astrologically, this signifies a time for setting intentions and re-evaluating priorities in work, finances, and relationships, while September 10 serves as a period for concluding unfinished tasks. Additionally, NASA notes that Venus will approach its peak brightness in the evening sky around September 18. Astronomical events for September 2026 also include a rare daytime occultation on September 14, where the crescent moon passes in front of Venus. In Italy, the event is expected to occur at approximately 11:27 Rome time, obscuring Venus for over an hour. ## Claims - The September 2026 full moon is traditionally called the Harvest Moon.
