Virgo New Moon Miniscopes
VIRGO NEW
MOON MINISCOPES
Design the future you wish to have.
This New Moon occurs on September 17th around 7:00 AM EST. In order to build the future you seek to have, now is the time to plant those seeds. Earth trines center around this New Moon. The Sun and Moon align to trine Saturn exactly - so we are fortified and supported immensely. This New Moon is all about long term results and building lasting foundations. Mercury leads this New Moon and is square Jupiter - giving us confidence but also making us a little overzealous. However, Mercury/Jupiter says to dream big, and the dream can be supported. You just have to be willing to put in the work. Actionable steps may be hard to follow but use this energy to plan and strategize. You can literally do anything you put your mind to, if you take things slow. We may be stubborn about our ideas, but it's because we know they have validity. Tangibility is key here. Understanding that the end result needs to be productive, real and solid. This is one of the best New Moons of the year for manifestation. What do you want to bring to fruition? Virgo tends to the needs of this idea, and Capricorn sees it through to the end - no matter how long that will take. We are in this for the long haul. Be mindful, be realistic and be solid in your approach.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 21º to 29º, you will feel the effects of this New Moon the most. Especially those with strong Mutable placements. So, let’s break this down by sign!

Mars may be retrograde in your sign, but as long as you integrate slowly, you can make the changes you seek! Jupiter is now direct, and still in the tight stellium in Capricorn. This has been placing a lot of emphasis on your life direction this year. Things are slowly starting to open up for you, even if you don’t feel like now is the time to act. The other two planets in the stellium are going to come out of retrograde in the coming weeks - by December, you are going to have a much more clear vision of where you are headed.
