New Moon in Virgo: Get Specific

The August 30th Virgo New Moon (6 deg) conjoins Mars (actions), Venus (attraction) plus Mercury (communication) and Juno (partnership agreements). So we have a precise (Virgo) new beginning that involves actions uniting with attraction -getting what you want. But also, precise communication/solutions (Mercury) about a partnership.

And the whole thing trines Uranus Rx in Taurus, giving us an easily manageable shot of change. You can initiate an agreement that’s different from anything you’ve done before, but it’s not so crazy that you’ll be uncomfortable. One or two small things (Virgo) will be different.

I like this New Moon – it combines Mars and Venus which is always nice. You act and attract what you want (assuming you act according to the Virgo agenda – precise, careful, gradual, practical). Venus and Juno really encourage all partnership issues (romantic and business). And Mercury (ruler of Virgo) adds powerful words or facts – think it, say it and act on what you say. You don’t have to do anything crazy, just take one small step in a different direction.

The only fly in the ointment is this New Moon’s inconjunct to Chiron Rx in Aries -there will be some insecurities about what you can’t fix. It won’t be perfect, but that’s ok. Virgo wants it to be perfect, but when Chiron in Aries is involved you have to accept that there’s going to be some blood or uncomfortable moments of assertiveness.

But overall, I see this New Moon as a prime opportunity to act on the specifics of what you want in the context of an agreement or commitment. Don’t be afraid to dig into the details – if you want the colour to be a couple of shades lighter, just say it. This is the time to get picky and have all your wants on paper. The difference of a half degree/inch/shade/is crucial.: is it crazy to get that specific? When Uranus trines Virgo, the answer is “Nope.” Uranus gives you latitude of what would normally be considered eccentric or odd. Combined with a mega Virgo New Moon, you have the space to be as crazy precise and exacting and anxious as you want.

But it won’t always be like this. Take advantage of this vibe now

August 28th, 2019: Progress And What Can’t Be Fixed

  • Virgo Sun inconjunct Chiron Rx in Aries (4 deg)

  • Virgo Sun square Ceres in Sagittarius (4 deg)

  • Mars in Virgo trine Uranus Rx in Taurus (6 deg)

Sun

The inconjunct to Chiron illuminates what hurts and what cannot be fixed. Virgo Sun’s purpose is to correct, but this influence will expose the wound that must be confronted rather than neatly tidied up. The focus on what sticks out like a sore thumb (Chiron in Aries) can emphasize distorted Virgo issues of not being good enough/smart enough.

But the messy, aggressive issue can increase awareness that this is a work in progress which requires empathy – helping others by acknowledging their battle rather than enforcing militant solutions. The Sun’s square to Ceres also hints at a crisis of nurturing – trying so hard to care and protect that good intentions become smothering. Freedom or ideals can trigger anxiety, with a resulting focus on “shoulds” and details that stifle growth.

Mars

Mars/Uranus is a nice antidote to the above. Precise, studious actions are injected with enough innovation that they enable change. Moving forward step-by-step can gradually reveal new details. Excellent for working on something that requires careful progress. This aspect also helps to counteract the Virgo paralysis that occurs with the loop of endless corrections: Uranus provides a nudge that keeps you moving.

If you get caught up in anxiety or fears of failure, slow down and initiate one small change at a time.

“Tell me something good.”

It’s human nature to seek pleasure and avoid pain.  Nobody wants to feel bad, or go through difficult situations.  I have been an astrologer for more than half of my life now, so it’s hard for me to remember what it was like before I knew about planetary cycles that were likely to bring challenges […]
