Virgo Season (18th Sept - 31st Oct 2023)
🕑 Added 2023-09-17 11:24:20 +0000 UTCThe Sun has officially left the cosmic stage of Leo (fixed fire) and has now entered the stars of Virgo (mutable earth) where it will stay until the last day of October. The Sun rules our vitality, outward expression and general focus. As the Sun departs from the boldness and drama of Leo and moves into the sign of the maiden, it gives us the chance to come back down to earth a little quieter and more attuned to the material reality of the world we're living in. Virgo season invites us to step into this archetype, commune with its wisdom, and observe the world and ourself through its lens.
Virgo combines a natural affinity for the physical earth plane with a sharp intellectual streak. It’s an earth sign, closely connected to the body and the tangible world and is ruled by Mercury, the planet of thought, curiosity, and communication. Virgo is analytical and observant, uniquely equipped to deal with the practical details of real life. With Virgo's eye of precision and criticial mind, discernment is a key theme of this season.
Virgo is sterotyped as the sign of organisation and in the Southern Hemisphere, Virgo season falls in spring, closely relating to the saying "spring clean". Now is the best time of the year to bring order and structure to your life. That could mean developing a schedule or routine, digitally organising, cleaning your home or getting into the habit of using tick lists to keep on top of tasks.
Health, care and improvement inlcuding that of ourself is a major focus of Virgo. So, this season is the right time to get serious about treating your body right — by eating foods that make you feel stronger, exercising enough to steady your mind or just simply enough sleep. Care for yourself the same way you would for a friend you really love. Sun in Virgo urges us to put in the effort and meticulously improve everything and anything to reach the illusory goal of perfection.
Service to others and being helpful is a major quality of Virgo, the maiden. Keep others in mind during your daily endeavours and commit that random act of kindness every day, being of help however you can.
Overall, Virgo season is a time to get your life in order. You can tackle the projects you’ve been avoiding and really do them justice with Virgo's improvement and perfectionist qualities driving you to always do your best.
