5 Things You Need To Know In Virgo Season
We have reached the last weeks of summer, and the Virgo season comes with considerable changes, say astrologers.
After the Leo season, which was quite turbulent due to Mercury retrograde, a new season, that of Virgo, is just beginning, marking a period of harvest, abundance, and preparation for the cold months ahead.
Here are five things MindBodyGreen astrologers want you to know about Virgo season, from Pluto retrograde in Capricorn for the last time in our lives, to a full moon eclipse in Pisces, one of the dreamiest signs.
1. It’s time to reap the rewards
In the next four weeks, the sun crosses Virgo, a practical Earth sign. We are heading towards the middle of the astrological year with the autumnal equinox next month, and Virgo is the sign that makes the transition to autumn.
During Virgo season, we have the chance to reap the rewards of the first half of the astrological year and prepare for a drop in energy as the cold season comes into its own.
In general, Virgo is a sign associated with organization, perfectionism, being at the service of others, and making intelligent moves. The question to ask yourself is: what can you do now to get everything you want for the rest of the year?
2. Mercury retrograde ends, but Uranus and Pluto enter retrograde motion
As you probably already know, Mercury has been retrograde since August 4. It began its retrograde course in Virgo and then moved into Leo on August 14. We still have one more week of confusion, and on August 28 the planet of communication will come out of retrograde and stay in the sign of Leo.
The retrograde fog surrounding communication, travel, and technology will begin to dissipate, only for Uranus and Pluto to begin retrograde a few days later. Both planets will begin their retrograde movement on September 1.
Uranus, as the planet of change and turbulence, will be retrograde in Taurus, highlighting themes related to finances, material security, value systems, and pleasure.
Meanwhile, Pluto retrogrades into Capricorn for the last time before settling comfortably into Aquarius starting November 19, where it will remain until 2043. As the planet of transformation, Pluto has not been in Aquarius since the late 1700s (marking the revolution American and French revolutions). This retrograde, therefore, gives us the chance to regroup and make sure that we are ready to face the changes that will follow.
3. Venus in Libra makes our life a little sweeter
On August 29, the planet of love, beauty, and pleasure moves into Libra – one of the two signs ruled by Venus. So, Venus will be at home with him, which means that we will have some sweet moments, relaxation, and love.
Libra is the most relationship-oriented sign, say astrologers. This sign prioritizes harmony and wants everyone to feel taken into account, and after the last month of Mercury retrograde and Venus in Virgo, we need that.
4. The new moon in Virgo requires clarification and a clear direction
On September 2nd, the new moon in Virgo is the perfect opportunity to set your intentions – not only for the rest of the Virgo season but also for the rest of the astrological year.
Virgo is an earth sign that values tangible results; she wants the best for herself – but also for everyone else – because she is an altruistic sign, who gets her energy from ordering everything around her. In his idealism, he will constantly pursue tangible improvements, and what better time of year to focus on being better than mid-year?
Use this new month to focus on the real and practical steps you can take to improve your daily routine, health, and the space you occupy. This could mean a new workout, tidying up your closet or even creating a new manifesting board to inspire you daily.
5. Summer ends with a full moon eclipse in Pisces
Just a few days before the autumnal equinox, we have a full Moon eclipse in Pisces on September 17. Lunar eclipses are believed to bring light to the shadows, helping us face the truth, however harsh it may be.
Being in the sign of Pisces, this eclipse can come with an extra dose of disappointment. It will bring you anxiety, but you can trust that the things you discover now will allow you to move on and thus evolve.
Many events are happening that could bring changes in the long term, and often we will have to look straight in the face of what we wanted to deny all this time. Connect with your inner wisdom to turn everything in your favor.
