New Moon in Virgo, as the Nightsky Empress meets up with her solar paramour (our sun) in the wee hours of Saturday morning at 2:06AM EDT, when the two are literally in the ‘BEGINNING’ of Virgo, at 00°23’.
Virgo, the fair maiden who represents the harvest, is often shown holding sheaths of wheat.
Virgos are the organizers, they like to have a place for everything and for everything a place. Doesn’t fit, too much? Virgo will likely come along to re-appropriate the excess utilizing their secret power at MASTER RE-SOURCERER’S!
But make no mistake, the squeeze is on, like a squeegee, clearing the decks for a new cycle. Good time to start that fast or detox. Quit whatever poison you've been killing yourself with. Virgo doesn't like excess or toxic substances.
Once again, we have this initiatory energy being created, tapping into Saturn and Neptune’s recent ingress into the VERY BEGINNING, ARIES, with both almost meeting up, a few solar arc minutes away, now both retrograde with Saturn RX at 00°35’Aries and Neptune RX at 01°34’ Aries.
First, they pushed us onto the Fiery shores and now they are pulling us back like an undertow. The messengers form an uncomfortable quincunx, forcing action, healing crises, and tumult, as long time and lifetime residue and karma are being squeezed to the surface, like a bubbling crude.
Jupiter in a semi-square from mothering Cancer can bring up all those ‘mother’ didn’t do this and that and the family hurts that don’t seem to heal.
Face it and switch it onto a new pattern. Visualize the comfort you want, do those things for yourself, smell clean sheets on the line, take a warm washcloth to your face, buy a plant, plant some bulbs, buy or make something for your garden, and know that you are your soul’s gardener.
Tend to that garden with much care.
Many feel ‘filled to the rim’ and are tapped out, so try not to take things personally, this is up to YOU, IT IS YOUR VIRGIN VOYAGE.
Want love, give yourself that love. Want kindness? Be kind.
I cannot emphasize enough how important this is, as we are headed into the fall eclipses in VIRGO AND PISCES.
The service workers, the givers, those who toil in the background and often without gratitude or anyone witnessing their overworked hands and aching bones, not to mention that mind whirring away searching for answers.
As if this is not enough, Uranus is also taking his baby step at 01°Gemini, in his shadow as he ready’s himself to begin his station retrograde on the 6th just after the midnight hour.
Uranus is also forming a supporting trine to a retrograde Pluto who is ALSO at 01°Aquarius, giving us transformative breath and breath is key to handling this overwhelming and oppressive energy, and take those deep breaths while standing barefoot on the earth and honouring both her and all she gives us and the directions.
Neptune and Saturn RX, as stated before, is sitting in between these two titans as Neptune washes away as quickly as Saturn tries to define the borders and boundaries, REALITY can be as elusive as a puff of smoke, going up with fires being ignited as this new energy can be too hot to handle.
The only thing left to do during the next month will be to METAMORPHISIZE.
To break open that cocoon, and lick your wings dry, let the sun and the air warm them as you ready a very new YOU to fly.
Be watchful of those who show up on your path now, as they may be your new comrades, not everyone can come, not everyone will fit on as the path narrows, and that is up to them. Indeed, it is up to each of us which path we want to walk, create, and which one we just don’t have the juice to keep struggling with.
Venus at 27°Cancer leading the way for Jupiter, is helping us to nurture our soul, be the good parent, put our shells around us if necessary to protect that soft, sweet meat that is our very flesh.
Mercury at 12°Leo gives us the inner leader reminding us that we must be our own best advocate, finding joy and laughter, the ability to play and not dwell on the past.
For this is time to put the past to rest, open the attic windows and let the bats fly out and the cobwebs blow away. For what serves us best?
No more time to mourn what is behind us, has it not stolen enough joy and taken away the view of the sunrise by looking in the rear-view mirror all the time?
Plant the seeds you wish to harvest now.
Spring will come soon enough after the darkness of the winter blanket covers us.
The lunar eclipse on the 7th has us meeting up with the hands of destiny and the solar eclipse on 21st will have us defying Saturn and Neptune as they stand across the waters above ready to capsize the weakened ships as the sun is occluded and the earth grows dark.
Best we prepare for what’s ahead, by getting our own ship, spit spot, ropes neatly wound, and provisions ready for the coming revelations.
Virgo, you are getting two treats (new moons) this time, so yeah, this is all about YOU.
