The energy forecast for this New Moon will bring forth many of the aspects of the earth sign, Virgo. A sign of work, fitness, routine, and practicality, Virgo energy likes to get all of the details in a row to plan and prepare. Ruled by Mercury, a planet of the mind and communication, we will all be faced with getting the answers we need or laying the framework for things to come. 

Saturn is the taskmaster. It wants you to learn to dig in your heels and push up your sleeves to become the best person you can be. But it does not make things easy. While it can be known for painful experiences and situations, it wants you to prove to the Universe that you deserve your hopes and dreams.

No matter your sign, we can tap into the magic of the Virgo! We all experience Virgo season in our own way, though there are certain themes that may come up this month. Some themes may be clarifying our purity of purpose, organization, health, service, and work. The Full Moon will be in Pisces on August 26 — we will balance the earthy healing of Virgo with the watery mysticism of Pisces for a powerful Full Moon Ritual. On September 9, our New Moon ritual will  use the desire for order to benefit our new moon intentions and release any “perfectionist” beliefs that do not serve our highest good. Prepare to be balanced, focused, and ready for miracles.

Over the last few months, we were riddled with powerful eclipses, which we refer to as “destiny” in our lives, as well as two very intense retrogrades (Mars and Mercury). Well, just in the nick of time, the day after the Full Moon in Pisces (on August 27^th), Mars goes direct and will no longer be causing delays and frustrations in our lives.

Great destined events are going to come about due to the power of this Solar Eclipse. Solar Eclipses are often “friendly,” and bring about new blessings and new beginnings that change our lives for many years. These fated events will transform your life depending on where they fall in your horoscope. 

Uranus is the planet of transformation, radical change, crisis, and freedom. Whenever it interacts with another planet, shocks and surprises are bound to happen, for better or worse. Even when Uranus causes things to feel chaotic or cause great pain, it always is forcing us to move forward and bring better institutions into creation.

Aquarian energy is always very energized, independent, and revolutionary. This sign is ruled by Uranus, which is the planet that brings forth genius and new waves of political, social, and creative change. This eclipse is a highly active one, as several key planets are involved.
