This week, we celebrate the New Moon of Virgo! This New Moon is a square of Uranus in Gemini. Virgo wants to fix problems and deliver tangible results, while Uranus in Gemini challenges us to rethink our approach. This is a tense setup that pushes up against our beliefs and goals at a core identity level, making us question, “Is this still who I am?” People are changing, and life is moving at a fast pace. We can feel the pressure to keep up with the times. It’s okay to change your mind. It’s okay to start again, even if you haven’t figured it all out yet.
This reflects the urge to alter the way we speak or think. Knowledge is key. How we communicate will be different. This is the moment where our minds and souls have to be aligned. The New Moon in Virgo highlights the tension between our drive to be useful and the desire to make it happen. Find that middle ground at the heart of Mercury’s true function: the willingness to keep asking questions. This is your moment to step up, set big goals, and make wise moves.
It’s a powerful time to transform our negative habits and to be filled with innovative and inventive ideas. This is a period of great potential for raised consciousness. Changing the way we think is a life-altering transformation, as Pluto forms a sextile with Saturn and Neptune. This New Moon challenges us to go beyond logic in a powerful way—that is, to have certainty in the Light of the Creator beyond logic.
