The Virgo energy is analytical, adaptable, health conscious, practical, logical, productive, sees the finer details, devoted, hardworking, observant. They love; cleanliness and tidyness, routines, loyalty, perfection, being pampered when feeling down.
The Virgo Sun may help us to be much more productive, adaptable, health conscious, so start that new health routine. Do some detoxes to boost your immunity or some intermittent fasting if watching your weight. Virgo energy will help us to be our own amazing craftsperson (like a flat pack genius, garden sculptor, Marie Kondo, cleaning fairy or mathematician) whatever we place our energy into, will most likely be more focussed and precise, as it is a more mental energy. Grasp the Virgo energy and declutter your spaces, so as to make it workable, orderly and give you a new fresh, crisp energy to your spaces.
In mythology Virgo is represented by the Virgin, this conjures up an image of someone inexperienced or who maybe prudish. But Virgo is a sign of purity, of one who is not owned nor controlled by anyone. She is attached to nothing and no one. She takes care of herself with meticulous care and helps others whenever she is able. Think Princess Di, Mother Theresa, Michael Jackson, Freddie Mercury, Hugh Grant, Harry Connick Jr, Pink, Shania Twain, Roald Dahl and Agatha Christie.
Sun now residing in Virgo, the next sign from proud, expressive Leo, we now have a sense of how we can still have some fun (given the restrictions) and how to express our creativity with more pride. In Virgo now, we may feel tired of all the Leo fanfare and may start to develop how to be purer of heart and grow from lessons in humility. Virgo is duty bound to this earth and is here to be of great service to others. So those who will shine throughout this sojourn in Virgo will be those devoted to making the world a better place.
The Virgo energy may see us more in our heads than in the present, we may strive for perfection in our lives and experience ourselves having constant idealistic world visions. But some humble self-assessing, being present and more down to earth, may see us ‘getting real’, practical and gently plugging away to achieve those dreams/visions. Those tasks that require patience, competence and precision usually come natural to a Virgo, so channel this energy to bring your work to a whole new level and be sure to prioritize first and to also be present.
The desire for perfection may be strong and you may experience an unyielding desire to reach for the stars, but do your best not to set your standards too high or too far from reach that you become disillusioned. The Virgo energy is not one for resting on your laurels, but of being of service, so help others ONLY when/where you can and have a clear intention and purpose. It is important to not self-sacrifice to the point of martyrdom, as this may impede not only your growth but disempower others in the process.
Throughout the Virgo season do your best to let go of the thoughts that you may be deficient in some way and accept all of your parts, love yourself and accept others unconditionally.
Sun and Mercury in Virgo, will make flowing aspects to the Capricorn stellium of Jupiter, Pluto and Saturn throughout its sojourn, which will assist us in focusing on more practical, logical, steadfast results to difficulties and projects. It will help us to see the finer details clearly and assist us in perfecting the projects we have already established and setting a routine that finesses our time constraints better.
For the most part our Virgo’s are one of the angels of the Zodiac in so many ways, they will usually be there for you no matter what, are generous, share lovely pearls of wisdom and will warm your heart with love, generosity and kindness on your rainy days.
Look to which house or planets are ruled by Virgo in your own charts to see where you may display some of the virtues of Virgo and to see where you may feel the Virgo season/energy more profoundly.
