Virgo Season!
Virgo Season 2020: August 22 - September 21
(Sun enters Libra early morning on the 9.22)
Just a few days after Mercury leads the way into 2020’s Virgo energy, the Sun enters Virgo at 10:39am thus beginning VIRGO SEASON!! Happy Virgo Season to all the amazing Virgos out there - if it weren’t for your attention to detail, your knack for improvement, and your service to others, we all would be a complete and utter mess.
The energy that Virgo brings is all about utilizing details for greater holistic function. Virgo is the sign of the Virgin/Maiden Goddess. It’s stripping things down to the bare-bones basics to bring simplicity and purity. Virgo season always brings me “back to the basics” where we can take a look at the mundane areas of life and see where we are overextending, overdoing, and overindulging. Virgo season is a great time to rid yourself of excessiveness and redefine your solid, grounded foundation. Virgo is a sign that is connected to the body and its physical vitality and takes pride in engaging in a level of self-care that keeps the body healthy and strong. This season is supportive for investing in our health and wellness - we highly recommend amping up your health routine! Drink more water, eat cleaner and more nourishing foods, get your body moving, improve your sleep schedule, and finding 1 or more hours a day to relax and unwind. Just to give a few examples!
Virgo is also a highly service-oriented sign. It loves to feel useful, and to use its service to improve and refine. If you need help getting your shit together, asking a Virgo for help and/or harnessing Virgo energy is the medicine you need! And while Virgo lives to be the helper, it does so with conditions (unlike Virgo’s sister sign, Pisces, who also loves to help but does so unconditionally, without boundaries… the good and the bad of that). Virgo season is a great time to assess how you may be using your energy to help someone or improve something in your life, but may not be getting the desired results. Virgo can bring “tough love” and a "no frills" attitude to the table to force you off your soapbox and instead, make the necessary changes needed to get the results you are looking for.
Virgo is also a highly organized sign. The energy of Virgo season will help you get organized and bang out the details of any plans or projects you've been meaning to tackle. The Virgo approach is very systematic - develop routines that are consistent; routines that you can return to time and time again that will help you achieve and maintain.
Towards the end of Virgo season, planets transiting Virgo will form challenging squares with the lunar nodes in mutable Gemini and Sagittarius. This energy will push us to look at how we limit ourselves by not putting in the hard work necessary to improve, and if we just bit the bullet to be uncomfortable in the short-term, how this type of discipline could really improve our long-term state. Virgo doesn’t always need comfort, but it does need to feel like it is working towards something. This is a time to ask yourself “what do I believe is impossible simply because it’s not easy? Where do I limit myself because I’m not willing to sit in discomfort or work hard to get the results that will actually bring me a more fulfilling life?”
Virgo season is maximum efficiency, powerful intellect, immaculate articulation, and valued wellness. The area in your chart that Virgo resides is the area of life you can work to improve as the sun transits this mutable earth sign. May Virgo season allow you to boss up and create systems and routines that greater serve your highest function!
