Summary

Thursday’s new moon in Virgo sextiles Mars in Cancer for a dynamic opportunity to get things started and initiate a plan that kicks.

Monday through Thursday, Libra Venus and Virgo Mercury finish up business in one of the two signs each rules. And THEN, Thursday night, the Moon conjoins the Sun for the Mercury-ruled new moon in Virgo. The mind and communications refine and mold themselves to current conditions. Desire and values are fleshed out and flush with this fresh start.

In addition, the Virgo Sun spends this time moving ever closer into sextile with Mars in Moon-ruled Cancer. So this week and this new moon open doors to a way forward that makes sense and satisfies. After Monday, Mercury closes its trine to retro Juno in Capricorn, so we start out with a reminder of what we’re so passionate about and why it’s worth locking down. These inklings ground our Venus and Mercury musings and ultimately link them to the very real path forward we’re courting.

Monday morning, the Cancer Moon squares Venus in Libra, jarring but a reminder that an emotional reaction to what we don’t want can line us up with figuring out what we do want. It is the short cut. The Moon moves to Leo where it squares Taurus Chiron, opposes Aquarius Pluto, trines Aries Neptune, then goes on to sextile Uranus in Gemini. Prepare to be redirected — in the way Odysseus was. For your own good? Feel it remind you who you are and where you may want to open yourself to experience.

Tuesday, the Leo Moon trines Aries Saturn then goes on to conjoin Jupiter in Leo. Contraction and expansion show us the edges of our own experience, and the general mood makes creative use of our ability to find and manage the middle ground. The edges of the map are ours to define and explore.

On Wednesday, the Leo Moon crosses the south node to sextile Venus, with Mercury on the midpoint of the Moon-Venus aspect. Feel your story. What’s working, what’s handled enough to move on to another chapter. What’s GOOD about where you are right now?

Midday the Moon moves to Virgo and an immediate trine to Chiron, the feeling of understanding the mastery of the moment and what’s yours. By evening, the Virgo Moon moves to the point of a yod with Pluto and Neptune, quincunx both, opposite the midpoint of their sextile. It also squares Uranus in Gemini, the other sign Mercury rules. Change makes sense, but it’s disconcerting. The mood that arises is managed by zooming out, connecting to something greater than yourself, but also aligning with the ability to leave what doesn’t work behind.

Early Thursday, Venus leaves Libra for Scorpio. Thursday morning, Mercury leaves Virgo for Libra, as Venus perfects an opposition to Taurus Chiron. Do you want something that hurts? Mercury semisextiles Venus; maybe it’s time to come to terms with that. Is the motivation in you, or is someone harming you or going against your stated values? Good question to pursue as you prepare to lock in for the new moon. Maybe the pain is benign or there to teach you something, but you’ve got to be clear with yourself. Venus heads into square with Pluto, so angst now is a good indicator of something you’ll want to address before getting in too deep.

Thursday’s Virgo Moon spends the day moving into conjunction with the Sun, both holding a sextile to Mars, then the Moon closing that sextile and moving on. The Sun holds that sextile through the weekend. We feel where we’ve got a chance to act, to go, and we continue in our follow through over days. Set an intention all week, before, as it hits, and move into it as you see the chance to act.

Friday morning, the Virgo Moon trines Juno in Capricorn: passion grounded in service and sense. This momentum holds till evening when the Moon moves to Libra and into an airy grand trine/kite with a fiery Neptune tail. Feet on the ground and healthy competition give way to a mood to take flight in an airy wave of fancy. The Moon trines Pluto and Uranus and opposes Neptune. Innovate and prune; balance magic with intent to gather the goods.

The new moon takes place Thursday night at 18 degrees Virgo. Where does this hit your chart?
