You may be feeling a little restless over the next few days, as the Moon moves through the results orientated sign of Virgo.
It is likely that people will be focussing on finding perfection at this time. Whilst attention to detail is important, leaving no room for error could create conflict if there’s too much criticism.
Throughout most of this transit we will be in the Balsamic Moon phase, which urges us to rest, release and reset our energy ready for the next cycle to begin.
However, with both the Sun and Moon now taking up temporary residence in the land of Virgo, you may find it difficult to relax. If you need a task to complete, try choosing something from the self-care to-do list. Organisation can also be a form of self-care.
Towards the end of this transit we have a New Moon, when the luminaries finally connect up in the sky in an exact conjunction.
The New Moon phase in many ways is a time of new beginnings. It’s also a time to allow ourselves to feel into what we truly want and need on an instinctive level.
In Virgo, this is likely to be around themes that involve creating more order, organisation and general efficiency. Our day-to-day rituals and routines are often the foundation for achieving our goals and intentions and creating healthy habits at this time could take us far.
Virgo is a very practical sign but that doesn’t stop it from dreaming big. It just needs a well thought out plan in order to execute the vision.
This New Moon will also involve a guest appearance from Uranus by trine and Neptune by opposition, invoking a further need for our intentions to involve innovation as well as idealism.
Whilst Uranus may inspire us to rebel from what we ‘should want’ and go after our true goals and aspirations, there could be a sense of confusion coming from Neptune around what is and isn’t ours.
Give space to whatever comes. You don’t have to act right now. This is a time to sit with it and feel it out.
With Love
