Applying The Lunar Wisdom Formula

The Lunar Wisdom Formula for this New Moon focuses on programming and service. These aspects are key to our health and wellness right now with the double Virgo energy presenting right now. I call this the programming new moon because it's the one that allows us to access our internal programming about life and the world and helps us to plan for how to achieve your desired results in real life.

The Virgo New Moon holds a special significance when it comes to being of service. This lunar phase encourages us to pay attention to the details of our lives and, in particular, how we can be of service to others. Virgo's analytical and methodical nature guides us in identifying areas where our assistance, skills, and compassion can make a meaningful difference. It's a time for self-reflection, where we assess our abilities and how they can be harnessed to benefit those around us.

Under the Virgo New Moon, we are reminded that being of service isn't confined to grand gestures; it's often the small, everyday acts that create lasting impacts. Whether it's organizing a community cleanup, offering a listening ear to a friend in need, or mentoring someone to help them achieve their goals, these seemingly modest actions are what Virgo's energy truly embodies. It's about the purity of intention and the genuine desire to uplift others, which aligns perfectly with the energy of a New Moon—a time of fresh beginnings and planting seeds for the future.

As we bask in the Virgo New Moon's gentle glow, we can refine our intentions for service and embark on a journey of selfless dedication. This lunar phase invites us to declutter our lives, both internally and externally, making space for acts of kindness and support.

Anyone with a Virgo♍️ or Pisces♓️ Sun, Moon or Rising will be impacted greatly by this lunation. Because the New Moon is also activating the 21st degree, which is the same place that Mercury turned Retrograde in Virgo, we will get an even bigger chance to review, revise and restart. In the overall collective energy the areas of Work and Daily Life (6th House) and Spirituality and Dreams (12th House) themes will hit a peak.

Working With The New Moon Phase🌑🌕

This Virgo New Moon also activates the 6th house of work, service, pets and illnesses. This is a time we're focusing on our daily work and tasks can really yield big results. Especially since it revisits the very degree of Virgo where many of our plans paused almost 3 weeks ago.

In the spirit of Virgo's nurturing energy, we can embrace self-improvement to better serve others. By focusing on self-care, organization, and skill-sharing, we not only enhance our ability to be of service but also create a ripple effect of positivity that can uplift our communities and the world at large. The Virgo New Moon serves as a potent reminder that being of service is a noble path, and it's one that we can embark on with renewed vigor and purpose during this lunation.

To effectively work with the energy of the Virgo New Moon, start by setting clear intentions for self-improvement and service to others. Virgo's meticulous and analytical nature thrives on organization, so consider decluttering your physical space and your mind through meditation.

The trine between the New Moon and Uranus in Taurus adds a spark of originality to Virgo's rigorous planning mentality. While Virgo emphasizes meticulous and practical goal-setting, Uranus delivers surprising discoveries that challenge you to go beyond the box. This mix implies that, while your goals should be solid and reasonable, they can also be innovative and revolutionary in their approach.

The Astro weather surrounding this New Moon encourage self-care, so prioritize your well-being with practices like yoga, healthy eating, and mindfulness. It's also an excellent time to volunteer, donate, or offer your skills and knowledge to mentor others. Engage in acts of kindness and embrace opportunities for education and skill-sharing.

By channeling Virgo's energy during this lunar phase, you can not only enhance your own life but also contribute to the greater good, fostering a sense of fulfillment and compassion that resonates with the essence of the Virgo New Moon.

Mercury Direct In Virgo🎉

On September 15th, At 4:21 p.m. ET, Mercury resumes its direct course, bringing an end to a period marked by potential misunderstandings and delays. This shift, which is especially obvious in Virgo, improves intellectual acuity, allowing for smoother interactions and dispelling existing uncertainty.

Virgo is the natural ruling sign of Mercury, making this particular transit especially potent. As Mercury, the planet of communication and intellect, shifts from its retrograde motion to direct, it signals a time of smoother and more precise communication.

The analytical and detail-oriented nature of Virgo provides the perfect backdrop for Mercury's return to direct motion, allowing us to refine our ideas, articulate our thoughts with precision, and regain clarity in both our personal and professional lives.

It is an opportunity to restart previously halted discussions or projects and move forward with renewed vigor. It is also ideal for activities that need rigorous attention to detail, such as research and analysis, as it promotes increased productivity and the capacity to efficiently discern between critical and non-essential aspects.

Decisions made during this period are likely to be practical, focusing on tangible facts rather than emotions, fostering educated decision-making based on thorough information collection. This shift also encourages us to tackle tasks with a heightened sense of organization and efficiency.

As Mercury resumes its direct course in Virgo, we can harness this energy to bring order to chaos, resolve misunderstandings, and facilitate smoother interpersonal interactions. This alignment invites us to embrace a period of increased mental clarity and precision, empowering us to move forward with renewed confidence and purpose. Look to the same house in your chart activated by the New Moon (see info above) to really focus in on where you will experience this energy in your life.

Blessed Be
