Friday the 30th of August we have a New Moon falling in the Earth sign of Virgo. This is one of the best New Moons in a very long time for starting something new or really reenergizing something. This is a time to welcome in new inspiration, and to be open to changing aspects in our lives that have become outworn or simply overplayed. It is especially good for romance and love, igniting new relationships and invigorating life partners.
The Virgo New Moon falls in closely to Mars, Venus, and Mercury, so these three little helpers, all in Virgo, will be adding to the experience of this New Moon.
Mars is the strongest energy that surrounds this Virgo New Moon. Mars represents the sacred masculine and is all about action, energy, motivation, and getting things done.
This New Moon is going to offer up all of this to us and will be a highly motivating and recharging time! If there is a project, we are wishing to get off the ground or something we are looking to speed up or add some steam to, this New Moon will help push things along.
While Mars energy can be very motivating, it can also be impatient and quick to anger. We may have to be mindful of this around the New Moon and refrain from acting on our impulses.
The good news is that the presence of Mercury will help to temper some of this Mars energy and will be standing by to remind us to look before we leap and to think before we do or say something we may regret later.
This Virgo New Moon has lovely Mercury energy on offer, this can help us to also gain wisdom and knowledge about areas in of our lives that have felt cloudy or uncertain.
Venus is also close to this New Moon, bringing creative and loving vibrations. Her presence will make this a very romantic New Moon.
For those who may have been struggling in relationships, this New Moon may help to soften things and allow both parties to come together in a new way. This of course, will take the participation of both, but the energies around the New Moon are on the right side to make amends or strengthen relationships.
There is a lot of energy to this New Moon but it all flows harmoniously, and will be a lovely way to wrap up the high vibrational energies that have been on offer all through the month of August.
August has held the potential to be a turning point month in our lives for some fresh inspiration or motivation. If anyone has been feeling a little stuck or stagnant or resistant to change, set an intention or take a small step forward under this Virgo New Moon in order to seal this energy into your life.
The energy is out there on offer, but we have to be the ones to take it and integrate it into our lives This energy only exists as a potential unless we step forward, grab it, work with and make the most of it.
Virgo New Moon Aspects…
The New Moon and Mars brings an abundance of energy and initiative which must be used in a safe way. If this hot energy were to build up in our bodies, it could be released spontaneously in an uncontrolled and destructive way.
Thankfully, Venus turns the aggression of Mars into passion and creativity, while adding love and patience. Mercury helps us think before acting. A Mars aspected New Moon is good for physical activity. Venus adds creativity like art, sculpture, and dance. Mercury brings intellectual creativity, incisive wit and debating skill.
High levels of assertiveness, initiative, and goal-directed energy make this a great new moon for starting new projects. While a Mars new moon alone would cause over assertiveness and impulsiveness, the addition of Mercury and Venus promotes harmony and cooperation. This is particularly helpful for business ventures and personal relationships.
The Sun and Uranus brings positive change and exciting opportunities. Increased freedom and self-confidence allow us to express the more flamboyant, or kinky and crazy side of our personalities.
This is an excellent time to step out of our comfort zones and widen our social circles. A reliable intuition and flashes of insight can lead to increased self-awareness, creative breakthroughs, and new discoveries,
Mars and Uranus bring a sense of adventure, curiosity and initiative. We can break free from previous restriction or boring routines with a burst of daring energy. Taking risks will lead to unique opportunities to experience new activities, feelings, and relationships.
Following our instinct and being confident about making changes and starting new projects will amp up our success.
The earthy Virgo New Moon also comes as a reminder to get grounded in being rather than caught up in “doing”. So many of us are consumed by our busy lifestyles and hectic schedules that we forget to pause and just allow ourselves to be.
Allowing ourselves to “just be” is about being present and alive in each moment and not lost in our minds or in our thoughts. We are not our thoughts. We are the one listening to our thoughts, and when we realize this, it allows us to become an observer of our internal chatter rather than getting swept up with it.
Take some time out, visit the ocean, forests or creeks and put those feet on the Earth, in the water and just feel and be. Earth out brothers and sistars!!
Love and Blessings ♥
