On August 22nd/23rd, we have the first of 2 New Moons, otherwise known as a "Black New Moon" with the arrival of the 0 degree New Moon in Virgo. Black Moon months are special and profound. This is even more the case when they involve a Total Solar Eclipse ( which happens on September 21st with a New Moon at 29 degrees of Virgo). As with all New Moons, there is an impetus to begin again, create and start major new projects and plans. Virgo, the 6th zodiac sign is all about order, grounded awareness, precision, service and healing.
The Black New Moon in Virgo is here to begin an epic journey around grounding our spirits and awakening our minds with simplistic rituals. Since this is a Black New Moon period, we are being introduced to new routines and organization practices that we will want to sustain well beyond these next 30 days. This is a wonderful time to be in nature and slow our pace from the heavy Solar energy of the last few months. Planning, precision and getting to work are all characteristics of this new moon. We will be encouraged to come from a humble heart and a place of making a difference for others. No other sign is a humbly motivated to be of service as a dutiful Virgo. Healing on multiple levels is indicated. Cleansing our space and our soul will uplift our journey into this upcoming eclipse cycle.
For those with their Sun, Moon or Ascendant signs on or close to 0 degrees of Virgo ( or the other mutable signs of Gemini, Sagittarius or Pisces) expect this new moon to impact you the most. Wholesome beginnings rooted in structure and order will be brought into your life. This could show up within your physical body, your family/home, relationships and career. This is a great time to hit that RESET button. Grounded awareness and organization don't have to be boring. In fact, they will be uber sexy and fulfilling for all of us now. For everyone else, check to see where 0 degrees of Virgo falls in your natal chart to see where this hyper awareness of service and health conscious actions will take place.
The Black New Moon in Virgo is here to offer a reset and a new perspective around health and the joy of organization. It is time to shed some of the intensity of the last few months with a calm presence of simplicity and conscious decisions. No grand flashy vibes or drama filled stories. This New Moon in Virgo is about a grounded awareness connected to service and compassion. She is here to offer new beginnings connected to keeping yourself humble and informed, the earthy delights of routine and order and the profound difference of giving yourself and others grace and perspective.
