Virgo New Moon – contained and focused
I always feel relieved when the Moon turns NEW in the mutable Earth sign of Virgo. At the New Moon each month you want to set your intentions with clear focus and nothing is as discerning for focus of attention as the Virgo New Moon. No need to go over all the changes we are witnessing and experiencing in our world. collectively -whoa! Individually you might or might not be on a roller coaster of turmoil. Whatever your present reality the New Moon in Virgo supports you in purifying your focus of attention and thus clarifying your actions.
No matter how much you might want to give a giant FIX to all the transitional upheaval going on you really can only control your personal experience of your reality. Virgo, technically ruled by Mercury, so we know the mind is a main player in your experience. is also, in my view, ruled by Ceres and Ceres says get rid of the unusable and keep what is needed. Separate the wheat from the chaff. What do you need to help you navigate your personal ride? Maybe you need mental input, maybe a great massage (ok, so who doesn’t need that?), maybe you’re binge-watching your favorite escape fantasy or meditating, or walking, or writing letters to leaders or protesting in all the ways you might. it doesn’t matter what you do. What matters is that you are aware of what you’re doing and making choices that support and cultivate your personal inner peace and calm because it is only from that place of stillness in the NOW that you are in the power position to make a difference.
Be extremely conscious of what you are talking about, what you are thinking about, and where you are focusing your attention. If you are re-hashing the past and re-living trauma that is what you are bringing into your reality. if you are talking trash about all the things you hate and disgruntle you, you will be bringing more of that into your reality. You cannot fight against something and simultaneously bring in something new. You must focus only and entirely on the NEW you wish to bring in to your reality.I suggest focusing only and entirely on what you wish to create, the world you wish to inhabit and the changes you wish to see. it’s a moment-by-moment adjustment to positive-focused reality. If you don’t do this, who will? “How can I be calm when madness reigns?”, i hear you cry. That is your assignment, your work, your must-do. You must focus on what you want.
Virgo New Moon – Refresh yourself in Nature
Answer these questions often during the day:
Who am I?
What do I want?
Today, in this moment
I am a creator being
I want to live in a world where all are free, prosperous, and joy-filled
none excluded
As I keep saying this I cannot but create this focus of my attention,
my actions aligned with my knowing of myself.
Other planetary influences at this New Moon
Mars retrograde at 27 degrees Aries conjoins asteroid Black Lilith at this New Moon. Anger, rage is flailing all over the place. You might find yourself having a rage attack or hitting your head a lot (I smashed by head like 3 times last week – yeee-ouch!). You might find yourself in fits of rage you didn’t even know you were harboring. Let the rage flow through you. Don’t hold on to it. Cry. Scream (not at another person or an animal, maybe alone in your room or parked in your car. I find car-screaming very effective). You might be able to identify the focus of your rage or you might be just generically rageful. To be expected. Cry it out. Knead some bread. Wrestle with pillows. Don’t hold it in. Rage can make you very ill. Rip paper. Write letters to people you have issues with and then tear them up. Clean. Clean. Clean. Create beauty. Channel Mars energy into passionate expression. Where Mars is moving through your chart will show you where passion and ENERGY is backing up and needs to be released.
Mars squares Saturn and Pluto, pitting the youthful warrior energy of Mars against the old guard. Old guard exiting stage left, but not without resistance, clearly. The bucket of water to dissolve the wickedness once and for all lies within you.
Neptune opposes this New Moon. Clarify dream-directed intentions with clear focus. What you imagine can be brought into manifestation, and actually WILL be brought into manifestation so get crystal clear on what you want. remove all restrictions and censors on your visions. Allow the magic of clear-focused intentions bring about your deepest desires.
The Sun, Moon, and Mercury all trine the Pluto, Saturn, Jupiter cluster. Movement is inevitable. Your focus and dreams are the source point of what is manifesting.
