For this week’s horoscopes for the New Moon in Virgo in your Solar or natal chart (or natal house if you know it):

Aries

(6th House) It may seem very banal and mundane, but one of the best things about the New Moon in Virgo is that it gives us the incentive to restore order and efficiency to our everyday lives. We rely on these important daily rituals which keep our lives functioning like a well-oiled machine. That includes our everyday chores like washing the dishes, brushing our teeth, and stocking the larder. Without these everyday tasks, that we all take for granted and often put on the back burner, our lives would devolve into chaos. The New Moon this weekend is here to remind us, that no matter how many distractions may pop up, no matter how busy your life may be right now, make it a point to pay attention to these rather mundane, but important rituals of your life that not only maintain your health and well-being, but keep that well-oiled machine churning. A good intention for this New Moon might be: I simplify and organize my life and environment, in order to create a more efficient and inspiring work and living space.

Taurus

(5th House) There is a reminder with the New Moon in Virgo this weekend that it is not so much about how perfect you are on the outside, so much as the beauty and power of your own personality that allows you to shine and radiate confidence. This is what we are really noticing about you at this time of year. And the more comfortable you are with who you are, the more others will rally round and celebrate who you are and what you have to offer. Use the New Moon to dive in, get busy with, those activities that bring you a sense of pride and joy. And that includes those people in your life that inspire that pride and joy as well. Show them off a little and bask in their glory. A good intention for the New Moon in Virgo might be: When I believe in myself and what I have to offer, I walk with greater radiance and confidence. 

Gemini

(4th House) The New Moon in Gemini places the focus on home, family matters, parents and a sense of place. This may be about rearranging the furniture and making some changes at home. Even small organizational changes can have a remarkable impact on your perspective. This is about making small but important changes that can make your life simpler and more efficient. Lining up your ducks and creating a more secure, organized and supportive environment. This will help to hold you over the busy months ahead, especially as Mars will be revving up the engines in your sign for the next 7 months. You will appreciate having the pieces of your personal life come together. A good intention for the New Moon in Virgo might be: May I find, build or create the sanctuary that brings me a deeper sense of place, security, community and belonging. 

Cancer

(3rd House) So much seems to be out of your hands these days, it is all you can do to keep up with changing circumstances. It could find you jumping through hoops at times, and leave you like a quivering mass of jelly the next. Especially if it all just becomes too much. Use the New Moon in Virgo to regroup. This may be as simple as getting your ducks in a row, clarifying your mind and expectations, or better managing your time. A certain flexibility is being required of you right now in order to process new information as it arrives. But rather than becoming confused and scattered, allow it all to flow through as it will, knowing that you will be better able to make sense of it all later. Use the New Moon this weekend to make the intention to see yourself committed to: creating the conditions for a healthier and less anxious perspective, by filling your mind with only the most positive thoughts and influences. Ask yourself: is this information Useful? Is it Necessary, Helpful or Inspiring? If so, then keep it, and put the rest on the shelf for now. 

Leo

(2nd House) The New Moon in Virgo provides us with the incentive and motivation to get all of your priorities in order. This may be as simple as creating some sort of financial plan, getting your books in order, paying the bills, or balancing the ledgers. Or this can be about crunching the numbers and figuring out a way to get them to all add up. But revisiting your priorities are not just about what you have been spending your precious time, money and resources on, but what you really want to be spending them on. This is about reinvesting in yourself, with a renewed enthusiasm for who you are, what you have to offer, and what you want to accomplish over the year ahead. A good affirmation for the New Moon in Virgo therefore might be: Knowing what my true priorities are is the key to understanding who I am. 

Virgo

(1st House) The New Moon in Virgo this weekend will resonate most strongly for those born between August 23rd and the 29th, or who have 1-7º of Virgo rising, but all Virgos will resonate with this New Moon. This is because the New Moon in Virgo is when we invest all things Virgo, including yourself, with a sense of renewal and purpose. And this will be important right now, as it can be easy to lose yourself when you are being enthusiastically drawn along with the shifting tides and activities of your life. Therefore use the New Moon in Virgo to bring the focus on yourself and those things that help to support your own health and well-bing. Restoring these healthful routines and habits to your daily life can help you to ride the challenges that any increased expectations can bring. There is not only comfort but practicality to grounding yourself with normalcy and order. Perhaps a good intention for this New Moon might be: Recognizing that health is the greatest of blessings, I will do what I can to promote the conditions for my own well-being.

Libra

(12th House) This is often a time of year in which Libra looks to pull back and retreat from the commotion of the outer world. It is a time to regroup. Being handed the unraveling skeins of your life, you are tasked with separating the disparate threads in order to then create some sort of order out of them. This can include tying up loose ends, or working on a project from behind the scenes. Or just taking some time out. Libra does some of their best thinking, organizing and planning when they close the door and turn down the distractions of the outer world. And you will want to take advantage of this opportunity to do so. It’s about looking for the ways to make your life simpler, more balanced, less hectic, and perhaps even more meaningful. Therefore, a good intention for this this New Moon in Virgo could be to commit yourself to: creating the conditions for a healthier, less anxious and more balanced life. 

Scorpio

(11th House) The New Moon in Virgo is your annual wishing moon. This is when you reconnect with your ideals and aspirations for the future and toss them out to the universe in hopes that they will find some positive way to take hold. And this is still true, even in these hectic times of rapid change and transformation which can feel distracting for some. Many a Scorpio has been daring themselves to be open to the new and untried in order to keep up with the shifting tides and increased pace. The New Moon in Virgo also has an affinity with friends and groups you associate with, which when aligned with your own aspirations, can bring you a boost of motivation. A good reminder for this New Moon might be that: When I surround myself with others who share similar interests, aspirations and hopes for the future, I find myself more motivated and inspired to achieve my goals.

Sagittarius

(10th House) This is the time of year in which Sagittarius tends to think more seriously about their future. And you may be wondering what goals you may want to set, or how you may best situate yourself in order to take advantage of future opportunities. And this is still true even despite, or because of, any uncertainties, or the potential for shifting tides. Just when you think you’ve got it all planned out, life has this way of tossing these curve balls. But this is all the more reason to have a plan. It implies order, even in the face of uncertainty and challenges. So even if you may not be able to act on it right away, this is still a great Moon to work with to create some sort of road map for the future. Therefore a good intention for this Moon might be: May I recognize and follow the best path forward, that will help me to fulfill my ever-evolving potential. 

Capricorn

(9th House) This week Capricorn is looking towards the future, and the ways that you might be able to improve your prospects. What credentials do you need to gather? What more do you need to know? Capricorn is a sign that is constantly thinking of ways to improve themselves, and the New Moon in Virgo lends itself to this idea of looking for new and better ways to do so. Some of these may be quite simple, such as re-writing a resume, or just stepping back and gathering all of the threads of your life together, in order to make sense of what more needs to get done. This is the time of year in which Capricorn is concerned with expanding their horizons, if only just a bit. But it is also a good time to remind yourself of the importance of the journey as well as the destination. Therefore a good affirmation for this New Moon might be: I strive for improvement instead of expecting perfection. 

Aquarius

(8th House) In Virgo season Aquarius can sometimes feel as if they are overwhelmed with the need to tend to mundane considerations and details, such as applying for insurance, stocking up on necessities, filing the necessary forms, paying the bills. But just think if you were to neglect these ordinary but necessary chores? What if you forgot to pay the mortgage or take out that insurance?  This is what keeps chaos at arm’s length. The New Moon in Virgo is about preparing yourself for the future. And sometimes in order to do so, it is necessary to not only have all these safety nets in place, but also to let go of the excess things that you no longer need, and may in fact be getting in the way. In this way the New Moon in Virgo is a time each year to clear out the clutter of the past, and being prepared for the future. A good affirmation for this New Moon might be: Through eliminating, cleansing and purifying the past, I clear the way for positive growth and change.

Pisces

(7th House) For Pisces, the New Moon in Virgo is a time of renewal and re-commitment to partnerships and alliances. This can also be about the ways that you might be able to reach agreements or better collaborate with others on an on-going project. Or perhaps go to others for advice or guidance. You’ll notice that the theme is about the people in our lives that help to complement and fill in all the spaces. This is a good moon for going on an interview, seeking advice or counsel or being an advisor to others. Just know that with Mars in Gemini for the foreseeable future, some compromises may need to be made. But it could be well worth it in the end. A good intention for this New Moon might be: I want to see myself creating greater balance between my own and other’s needs and expectations. Or: By finding points of agreement with others, I can do my part in restoring civility and order to the world.
