Moon Scope; Starting Fresh in the Sign of Purity

Written on August 19, 2025, for the New Moon on Augustus 23, 2025

Good morning beloved, and thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet. It’s not a secret that Mercury is the ruling planet of Virgo, but any good astrologer knows that there’s a personal branding or touch that goes along with the study and practice of astrology, which in all honesty, is what makes this an art.

I’ve grown fond of the goddess asteroid, Astraea, and personally, I feel comfortable with Astraea ruling Virgo. Hey, some astrologers say that Chiron should rule Virgo, and who would I be to challenge them. This is art!

I spend most of my time on the computer, so I don’t get to watch much television, but I remember how awful the nightly news was on television. Lots of people stopped watching the news because it was sad, negative, and just freaking disturbing.

Well, there’s no way around that. You get the same thing on the computer, and every time my homepage opens, I see murder, home invasion, roommates decapitating one another, robbery, hate crimes, carjacking, woman getting knocked out by men, men and women stabbing people for no reason, and the list of senseless and heinous crimes goes on and on.

This brings me to Astraea. Astraea was the ancient Greek Goddess of Truth and Justice, and she was the last of the immortals to live on earth with humans. Astraea loved humanity, and we often see pictures of her holding a scale and wearing a blindfold.

The blindfold represents an important and often overlooked concept that justice, in the end, must be served without discrimination and without favoritism. Without prejudice. Who you are and what you look like does not matter. We’re all humans.

While Astraea was here on earth, there was an extreme decline in ethics, morals, and virtue, and at a certain point, Astraea began to feel useless. She felt like humanity had gone down a road and there was no way of bringing us back. According to Astraea, she had done all she could, humans were beyond reproach, and she was wiping her hands clean. At that point, she ascended to stars and she was given the Constellation Virgo.

After looking at the news lately, I often wonder myself if humanity is beyond reproach, but I guess you can’t base that decision solely of the news.

New Moon in Virgo

We have a new lunar cycle beginning in Virgo, and if you look at the chart below (courtesy of astro.com), you can see the Moon on the 9^th degree of Virgo in the Seventh House.

The energy of this new lunar cycle is important because it takes us from the end of August to the beginning of the fall season, so yes, this cycle that begins today on the 23^rd, culminates on September 7^th, and then, it turns new again on the first day of fall or the autumn equinox.

Relationships are obviously in focus now with the Moon being in the Seventh House, but the overall picture gets a little clearer once we consider the placements of Mercury, Virgo’s ruler, and Astraea, Virgo’s co-ruler.

When it comes to the Seventh House, we always hear a lot about marriages, friendships, or just relationships in general, but what “open enemies?” Open enemies are enemies we know (as opposed to Twelfth House enemies), and they usually come in the form of competitors. Perhaps, subconsciously, even though we might not be aware of it, our moods and overall energies can be affected by people who compete with us.

This happens because our connections to these people goes way beyond the competition. You could be competing in a writing contest, for an award in school, for a job promotion, or in a sporting event, and once you enter the competition, the people who compete against you are not going to be friendly. They want to win just as badly as you do. So, there’s a lot of ill-feelings, a lot of jealousy, and maybe even some overlooking as these people wish terrible things upon you. All of that can be draining.

Do your best to protect your energy now, and do your best to prepare for whatever it is that you’re trying to win. When you look at the chart below, you can see that there’s a large Seventh House that looks to be about 36 degrees and occupied by both Leo and Virgo.

This tells me that there’s going to be a split within the Seventh House between those that are just blowing off hot air and talking shit💩 (Mercury in Leo), and those who actually get something done (industrious/Virgo). That’s why I say to protect your energy and focus on your preparation. People like to talk, even if they have no intentions on getting involved or competing.

Do worry about them, and honestly, you shouldn’t be worrying about anyone except yourself anyway. Virgo is the sign of conscientiousness, she wants to know and she wants to understand.

The Moon in Virgo at the start of this lunar cycle can have you feeling intellectual and meticulous, so do the research. Study the market conditions, study your competitors, and know and understand what you’re getting involved in. Ground yourself, and do all the behind scenes work.

Astraea in the Tenth House indicates that religion, traveling or studying abroad, and colleges or universities are a part of the larger picture. With Mercury in Leo, the Moon in Virgo, and Astraea in Sagittarius, you might be preparing some type of speech that you’re eventually going to deliver in front of a large audience, or maybe you’re working on a book or movie script.

I see lot of ideas and thoughts coming in through Mercury, manifested by the will of Leo, and made concrete in Virgo. This is actually the essence of creating something from nothing.

If you have any good ideas, write them down now and work on them. Develop them.

In the sign of Sagittarius, Astraea won’t abandon you if you remain optimistic, open-minded, and most importantly, pure of heart. If you’re doing something because you absolutely and truly believe in it and care about it with all of your heart, the door will remain open for you to transcend your current condition or situation.

This, after all, is a new moon, and we’re starting fresh in the sign of purity. Virgo doesn’t mean you have to be a virgin, it means you need to be pure of heart. Sincere.

Conclusion

When it comes to relationships, or partnerships of any kind, you should be as discriminating as possible. Distinguish between those who can help you and add value and those who talk a good game, and say they will, but never do.

If you can remain broad-mined and open to new ideas, it will help to curtail the darker side of Virgo, which manifests as argumentative, and over-critical. The Moon is Virgo, especially a new moon, foreshadows new endeavors in business and industry. Virgo is about service and helping, and you can't do either of those things if you're being standoffish.

Let the fires of Sagittarius and Leo warm you. Be adventurous and outgoing, friendly, and creative. I like Mercury in Leo. Conversations are about expansion. How can we do more? How can we better ourselves or improve our position? How can we turn this idea into a real money maker?

There's really no limit right now with the involvement of Sagittarius. The only limitations are the ones we place on ourselves. If you want to start this new lunar cycle off the right way, let sincerity guide the way forward.

Okay, my friends. Have a wonderful weekend. This will be the last lunar cycle of the summer! Enjoy it.

Happy Birthday Virgo

August 23, 2024

It’s hard to believe we’ve reached that time of the year already, but here we are! According to our tropical astrology, the Sun just left Leo and crossed over that magical boundary into Virgo. Virgo is one of three earth signs, and its quality is mutable. Mutable energy is perfect for Virgo because Virgo seeks to know and understand. Virgo’s are generally organized, they’re industrious, and they love gathering many and various sources in search of the truth.

It’s believed that Virgo’s most likable trait is her conscientiousness. Her lucky numbers are 5 and 3, and she attracts the most wearing navy blue and gray. Mercury, the planet of communication, commerce, and the awakened mind rules Virgo in the 6th House.

The sign of Virgo was actually given to Astraea, the Virgin Goddess of purity, precision, innocence, and justice. The Scales that we see representing Libra belong Astraea. In astrology, you can use Astraea in your readings for a deeper understanding-just remember that she’s represented by an asteroid.

Roughly, the 22nd of September should be the Sun’s last day in Virgo, which means the autumn equinox, or the first day of the fall season will occur as the Sun is leaving Virgo and entering Libra.

It’s a beautiful time of the year, and personally, it’s filled with lots of love and amazing memories.

But, let’s not rush things. We still have another month of summer. Enjoy!

Moon Scope

Good Morning Beloved!

Thank you visiting Nooz Buffet, and welcome to this April 19, 2024 edition of Moon Scope.

So, the first quarter moon was on the 15th of this month, and today, April 19, this evening’s moon will be lit up at 84%. Basically, the night of the full moon hasn’t arrived yet, but it will on the 23rd in the astrological sign, Libra.

There’s a lot of deception involved with the Moon, like for example, we say that a full Moon is illuminated 100%, but don’t forget about the dark side. On the night of a full moon, the moon is actually only 50% illuminated, and it should be called a half moon. It sounds funny, but it’s true.

I don’t want to confuse anyone, but that’s just the nature of the Moon as it represents emotions and subconscious thoughts within all of us. As the Moon relates to us in astrology, it symbolizes all the stuff others can’t see, and some of the stuff we ourselves really need to dig for.

This morning at 9:46 I spotted the Moon in Virgo on the 11th degree. And, while the Moon in Virgo can have us feeling argumentative and high-strung, displaying those emotions could be an indication of something deeper.

You care!

When we’re meticulous, focused on details, and trying to do something that’s important to us, when can become quite defensive and standoffish when our efforts are blocked or interrupted by others.

Since the Moon is naturally a 6th House sign, service is highlighted now. Our health, and health routines are also highlighted. When it comes to rituals and consistency, Virgo is the place to be. Joining a gym or starting a new class in cardio exercise might be the way to go. The summer is coming, and we like to look good during the summer months, plus it’s a fact that your overall mood can be improved with physical exercise.

Allergy season is upon us too, so just keep that in mind.

Other than that, it Friday! The weekend is here finally!

Lucky Numbers: 5 and 3 and 8

Highlighted Activities: Dancing, reading, writing, and baking.

Moon Scope; The Quality of Virgo

September 14, 2023 Edition

Welcome to the September 14, 2023, edition of Moon Scope, and thank you for visiting Nooz Buffet.

In three more days, on Thursday, the 14th, we get a new moon in the astrological sign of Virgo. At the same time, the Sun should be crossing over into the last 10 degrees of his transit through the same sign.

With a brand-new and fresh moon cycle beginning in Virgo, we receive not only a new start but a new start with a bit of uniqueness to it.

Photo by Joonas ku00e4u00e4riu00e4inen on Pexels.com

My intuition reveals a current scenario where someone is trying to achieve something, trying to make something work or trying to do something the “right way.”

I see a continuous effort being made, and the wonderful thing about the new moon phase starting in Virgo is that it blesses us with the tools to make things better, or exactly how we want or think they should be.

Virgo is a sign of the time. It’s telling us exactly how to navigate through this cycle of time in our lives, and when it comes to crossing your t’s and dotting your i’s, Virgo is the best placement.

The interesting thing here is that Virgo is the sign of perfection, however, we as humans aren’t perfect, and we don’t live in a perfect world. We’ll, that’s what we’re told, and if that’s true, then perfection as it relates to other people and places, may in fact, be an unreachable ideal. The key phrase being, “as it involves other people and places.”

Virgo, partially because it’s an earth sign, is not supportive of abundance or expansion, which makes sense because the more we add on and branch out, the more we realize the need to let go because we can’t control every little thing.

But, just like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, perfection, as it applies to you personally, becomes reachable. The world might be imperfect, but your world doesn’t have to be.

Some of us might not have a choice now when it comes to change, meaning the end of something soon only to begin again might happen despite our efforts to prevent it. We might not be able to preserve or extend the life of something because it’s out of our control.

A house, for example, might continue to crumble over and over again until we figure out the secret to an indestructible foundation. Why do you think every empire in human existence that rose to power eventually crumbled and fell?

The clock-time itself is a test. Things that aren’t real, natural, true, or created with sincerity will not last. They won’t stand the test of time, and believe me, time will not hesitate to show us this lesson over and over until things are done the “right way.”

The advice I’m giving for this new moon is to start small. Pick up whatever pieces the last moon cycle left you with, and move forward. Research, gathering information, and truth are highly favored now.

Virgo is mutable earth, which should be a reminder that the way through this time is with an open mind. Listen more instead of talking and sort of feel your way through.

I never had a lot of friends because I never wanted a lot of friends. I didn’t want to be around fake, pretentious people. I’d rather have a small group of 5 people who I know are good and who I know will be there when I need them the most.

It’s quality over quantity.

Thanks again for visiting Nooz Buffet, and I’ll see you all at the next full moon.

7th House Illuminated by Powerful Conjunction

Hello everyone!

I hope you’re all having a wonderful day. The Sun is now on the 13th degree of Virgo, which means it’s almost halfway through its transit of the Virgin. Wow, that was fast. So, Mercury, the planet of communication and travel, is also in Virgo at the moment on the 14th degree.

This alignment between the Sun and Mercury is called a conjunction, and the degrees of separation vary with astrologers, but personally, I feel like the energy of two planets combined can hold power up until about 8 degrees. With 1 degree separating Mercury and the Sun, I’d say this connection is pretty potent.

Now, because Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods, is the ruling planet of Virgo, he’s home. Whenever a planet is in the sign it rules, its comfortable. I guess you could compare it to your favorite sports team playing at home versus on the road.

Both planets are in Virgo in the 7th House, and the 7th House is the area of the chart where the energies can manifest into the areas of our lives involving partnerships, marriages, contracts, and open enemies. Open enemies means those we’re familiar with, and these people are usually competitors.

Virgo is very technical and precise, so, as we begin to analyze the Sun/Mercury conjunction in this sign in the 7th House, we must focus our attention on the day to day mind. A lot of people don’t know this, but Mercury represents our everyday mind, not the subconscious mind.

There’s a huge boost coming our way involving precise communication. If you’re about to sign a contract of any type, make sure you read over all the details before signing. This could also be a lease for a rental, or any type of written agreement involving the transfer or the borrowing of goods or possessions.

For those couples who are engaged to be married, now is the perfect time to open up a conversation and discuss the details of your special day.

If you’re dating, and things are getting serious between the two of you, now is the time to speak to your partner about what you want and what you expect moving forward.

Virgo is also very analytical, industrious, and detail oriented. There could be lot’s of conversations involving details on how to be better or how to make things better or improve. If you’re on the brink of success or close to achieving personal goals, now is the time to fine tune things.

It’s definitely time to get rid of everything no longer serving a purpose and whatever is holding you back. Take this time to study the board in front of you, and gather the information you need.

Preparation and planning is the key, and when that moment arrives where you need to speak, write, compete, or make that presentation, you’ll not only be ready, but you’ll have the edge over your competition.

A conjunction between Mercury and the Sun in Virgo gives us exactly what we need to regain our edge.

The Crescent and the Starry Maiden

Last night, I picked up a book I bought and read several years ago, “Who Built the Moon?” It was written by Christopher Knight, and author who wrote another great book that I haven’t read yet, The Hiram Key.

It’s good, and I recommend re-reading certain books you’ve bought because you’ll always find new information you missed. Also, things that didn’t make sense before will begin to make sense the more you revisit the text.

Anyway, lol..

So, my Moon application says the Moon will be in Leo tonight, but the website I visit religiously just showed tonight’s crescent Moon reaching the zero point of Virgo.

A lot of people have a different opinion about the Moon while it’s in Virgo, but personally, I think Virgo is a good spot for the Moon. The Moon will find comfort in the reserved and modest sign of the virgin.

It’s going to be a sensual evening with lots of feel to it. Enjoy it.

In Virgo, the reserved and active Moon will respond inquisitively. Questions concerning why and how will rule this time, especially when it comes to work and self-improvement.

Virgo is the sign of the perfectionist, and the Starry Maiden will dissect facts to find the truth. The truth is important, and I just posted something personal in response to how I’m feeling right now because I just got fired for absolutely no reason, but in that post, there’s a quote from George Orwell.

Without looking at it, it said something like, in a universal time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. That’s true.

Virgo wants to know, and she wants to understand because she wants to make the right decisions. She wants to take “right” action.

Tonight, under a beautiful-vast sky, when the crescent Moon shines bright with intrigue, it will be a good time to gather facts and get the information you need-the information that will allow you to move forward in the direction of your choice.

The crescent Moon highlights action, but just because you’re doing mental work, that doesn’t mean inactivity.

This is a wonderful time, and personally, I don’t know why I’m not drawing the energy I need to me, but that’s not the case for everyone. Jupiter, the planet of expansion, is in Taurus, the sign ruling money and possessions.

If you’ve prepared properly, Jupiter’s transit through Taurus should be a wonderful time for material gains. Draw on the power of the Moon tonight, because that’s exactly what I’m going to do.

I’m going to research, read, plot, gather information, and map out a plan that will guarantee success. Soon, the Sun will be returning home to Leo and new life will be given to what you truly want.

Have a great night!

Sunday Morning Apocalypse

This morning, I woke up and looked at myself in the mirror. The symbol on the shirt I was wearing stood out like a sore thumb; it was a picture of horse and underneath it it said Black Horse.

This is the second time my work put me in association with the Black Horse, the first was a street address named Black Horse Lane.

This caused me to look at Revelation 6; there’s a book or scroll in the right hand of God that’s sealed with 7 seals. The first 4 of 7 seals are opened by the Lamb of God, or the Lion of Judah and 4 beings riding horses are summoned.

First Horse: White, crown, conquest

Second Horse: Red, sword, war

Third Horse: Black, scales, famine

Fourth Horse: Green, death, hades

They are given authority over 1/4 of the earth to kill by their associated means.

It is my belief that the associated astrological signs are as follows:

First Horse: Leo, Crown, Kingly, Royalty, conquest

Second Horse: Virgo, Goddess of Justice, Sword (tongue)

Third Horse: Libra, Scales

Fourth Horse: Scorpio, death, hades (Pluto God of death and regeneration)

When you take the actual placement number of these signs and put them next to their biblical horse numbers it’s as follows:

51 Leo

62 Virgo

73 Libra

84 Scorpio

I don’t think it’s coincidental that there’s a perfect sequence of increasing numbers here. Leo through Scorpio are astrological signs 5, 6, 7, and 8, and their horse numbers start at 1 and continue increasing by 1; 1, 2, 3, 4.

51, 62, 73, and 84 are all separated by 11.

Are you blown away yet?

How about this; 51+62+73+84=270.

270 degrees is exactly 3/4 of the zodiac (Aries through Sagittarius), which leaves 1/4, or three signs. The four horsemen were given authority over 1/4 of the earth (Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces) to kill. Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces are the three signs representing the winter season or death, the time of year when it’s impossible to plant and grow crops.

How about this; 51+62+73+84=270.

270 divided by 4 horsemen= 67.5.

6 is the Revelation number, there were 7 seals, and .5 represents roughly half the seals that were open, 4 out of 7.

Have a great day, and..

don’t overthink it.

Harmonious and Favorable

This morning, at approximately 10:08, the 10th House Sun (9 degrees ♉️) was within 120 degrees of the 3rd House Moon (9 degrees ♍️). In astrology, when two planets are within 120 degrees of one another, we call it a trine; it’s a harmonious and favorable aspect.

Because Taurus and Virgo are both earth signs, it’s an earth trine.

The energy right now is favorable for communications and local travel. Today is Sunday, and if you have the day off from work, it’s the perfect time for shopping, visiting family and friends, or doing something you’ve been dying to do all week but haven’t had the time. Just getting out of the house and cruising through your old neighborhood might be what you need to put things into perspective.

As far as conversations go, right now, it could be extremely beneficial to speak with someone of the opposite sex, maybe your significant other. With the Moon and Sun in trine, only good things can come out of sharing information, your feelings, or your plans about your current profession.

Someone from the opposite sex might be able to provide you with an angle or a view you were previously unaware of.

I see something more in this reading.

With the Sun and Moon in trine, there’s harmony between man and woman, night and day, and all the other things represented by both luminaries. In addition, through Virgo, the Moon brings tremendous focus and attention to detail to the table. In Taurus, the Sun, which is already blessing 10th House endeavors with will power, will now because of the Bull, have staying power and the ability to settle in, get comfortable, and make a serious run.

With the placement of the Moon in the 3rd House, and the Sun in the 10th, I think this might be the perfect time to start a home-based business. I see nothing but opportunities for success and public notoriety.

You can write, start a podcast, and create a website from the comforts of your own home, and with the Sun shining in the 10th House, public recognition is sure to follow.

Open up the lines of communication and bring the discussion to the table!

Moon Scope; Full Illumination

March 7, 2023 Edition

Hello, and welcome to the March 7, 2023 Edition of Moon Scope. Tonight’s Moon will be full in the astrological sign, Virgo. Since this moon phase began on February 20th with the new moon in Aquarius, tonight’s moon is culminating, and it will be illuminated 100%. Full visibility is on the menu, so think back to what you had going on in February on the 20th.

Before I move into the rest of our Moon Scope analysis, I wanted to share something that came to me this morning. This picture you see on the left is from a book titled, The Mayan Code, Time Acceleration and Awakening the World Mind, and it was written by Barbara Hand Clow. It shows the hominid lineage from millions of years ago, up to the present time which was around the publication date of the book, and into the future.

What it’s showing us is pretty clear. Now, we don’t have to do anything. God gave us all free will, but this lineage is showing us the peaceful and spiritual human is what will survive on. Violence and war can continue, and the powers that be can continue to wage it, but that type of human, his/her mindset, and the DNA or genetic makeup of that individual has run its course, it ended in 2012. It’s NOW a thing of the past, and has been for 11 years.

A while ago on here, I was explaining what life in a community was like many years ago before the power of reading, understanding, and sharing our destinies with one another was taken. A citizen experiencing synchronicity would go see an astrologer and manifest for them. In turn, the astrologer would heal and purify the individual’s body and mind from past life traumas and bring them up to date, and then prep their bodies for handling higher frequencies before telling them what their destinies were. The individual would then set out on his journey.

I’ve been listening to Coast to Coast AM for a long time, and lately I caught a good episode. A recent guest was discussing his findings; What we are starting to find out is that it’s our job to heal and purify our bodies because the goal here is to become one with the universe. Yes, the goal of life is to interact with the universe and join the life that thrives beyond our existence.

How is that done?

The answer ties into and goes back to what I was saying about the old communities. It’s involves awakening, healing and purifying the body, and then raising the kundalini energy to blow out and clear the chakra energy centers; that preps the body and prepares it to take on higher frequencies that are beyond the frequencies of earth. They discovered this was common knowledge at one time, and the act of walking in and out of star doorways and portals is called star walking. It was traced back to Osiris.

It might appear that we live in an evil world that’s full of deceit, and as true as that may be, you should know the goodness of old is coming back, and there’s no way to stop it. Eventually, we’ll all become aware of what’s really going on. At this point, from the picture I showed you, there’s only one way to survive on, and you’d be silly to blow this off as hippie talk or call it tree hugger shit like I hear from time to time. This is real, it just hasn’t become your reality yet.

This puzzle is starting to come together, it’s just taking time because not one person has all the answers. Each of us knows a little bit, or holds a piece. Once we come together, we can put the bigger picture together.

Let’s get back into this current Moon Scope, shall we? Because tonight’s moon is in Virgo, I’m going to share another bit of information about Virgo, that’s relevant to the information above.

“Christ said we would need to enter the Kingdom of Heaven through the eye of a needle. This is the perfect metaphor for the polarity of mastering the 6th house, or eye of the needle to enter the Kingdom or cosmic attunement, the 12th House. Enter totally into your body/mind balance, in your personal life, and God is waiting on the other side.”

That quote also comes to us from Clow, and her book, Chiron Rainbow Bridge Between Inner and Outer Planets.

Virgo is the 6th House sign, and Pisces is the 12th. That the polarity in focus here, and now I’m starting to realize that maybe the eye of the needle is exactly what God was trying to show me in that picture I shared a while ago.

See that little green dot? Watch what it becomes when I zoom in.

It’s and eye. Eye of the needle? Maybe. I’m sitting here almost in tears about my current financial situation and being broke, and maybe Jesus is trying to teach me a lesson about money. It has to be because Virgo in my second house of possessions, and that’s the money house.

Wow, so we just connected these dots together, and that’s exactly what the power of the full moon can help us do. It’s 100% illumination, and it reveals the fruits of our labor that began with the new moon.

Virgo is ruled by Mercury, and both Mercury and Virgo are home in the 6th house. Virgo is mutable and feminine, and it’s an earth sign. Earth signs, or the element of earth is about sensuality and the senses. Tasting, touching, hearing, seeing, and smelling are our five senses and they help us navigate and make sense out of our environment and the people in it.

This is all starting to connect with the information above and make sense because the 6th House is the house of health and service. Service to others and personal health, health as in healing and purifying the body so that it can take on higher frequencies to enter the Kingdom of heaven through the eye of the needle.

BAM!

I’m going to reveal the darker side or the not so good qualities of the moon being in Virgo because that’s the only way can become aware of what we’re doing wrong and correct it. Being more critical, high-strung, standoffish, argumentative, hypochrondriac; so if you’re displaying those behaviors, you need to find your way back to the other side, which is intellectual, industrious, meticulous, steadfast, and responsible.

The most important thing here is being responsible. If you’re not honest with yourself and you refuse to take responsibility for you actions, it’s going to be impossible for you to have the conversations you need with the people who do. Does that make sense?

As the Moon tonight lights up Virgo and the 6th House, we become conscious and concerned with our health, which is really the most integral part of the 6th House that involves service to others. How many times have you heard, “How can you help others if you can’t help yourself?”

We’re at the top of our game when we take care of our bodies by getting the proper amount of rest, eating the right foods, exercising, and reading and watching good material (because what we read and watch on television is food too). When we’re in good health, mind, body and spirit, we can be a huge help to the people around us (service to others).

But remember something, helping people isn’t always about money, and you don’t have to be rich. Sometimes, it could be just sharing or passing along information you’re in possession of.

If you’ve made a commitment to your health for this new year, the full moon tonight is reminding you about that. And don’t forget about those who are close to you. The people close to you, family included, depend on you for support and care. If the 12th House (Pisces) is a karmic house where we see the rewards and punishments for the deeds we’ve done, then we can see the relationship to that here in the 6th House with Virgo. How we treat ourselves and the people around us will reciprocate in some way. It’s the Law of Return.

Lucky Day: Wednesday

Lucky Numbers: 5 and 3

American Cities Under rulership of Virgo: Boston

Countries: Turkey and Greece

Virgo is all about focus and analyzation. So get busy! When tonight’s full moon makes it’s revelations, research and study to find out why. Gather your facts and learn the truth about yourself so that you can be of service to others.

Have a wonderful evening!

Virgo and the Luminaries

August 23rd to September 22nd, here on the eastern coast of the U.S. is hot. As we get closer to the end of August, we get into the time referred as the “dog days of summer.” The month of August is coming to an end and so is the summer season so as we begin to get overwhelmed by the heat, we’re given a break. The fall or autumn arrives and the temperature and humidity drops a little.

Astrologically, this time of year is represented by Virgo. According to Greek mythology, Virgo was associated with Astraea, the immortal goddess who was the last to leave humans and earth at the end of the Silver Age. Justice, innocence, purity, and precision are words connected with Virgo, and Virgo was always connected with the harvest.

Justice is why we find Virgo in the heavens next to constellation Libra, the scales of balance and justice. When you think about the words we connect with Virgo and the timing of her leaving at the end of the Silver Age, we can clearly see the reason for her departure. When humanity is without purity and innocence, the degeneration begins.

Interestingly enough, between August 23rd and September 22nd, the school year begins, and for some children, it will be their first experience socializing and mingling outside the home. Children are pulled from the shelter and protection of their parents and the private sanctuary that is the home, and placed into the classroom.

Right now, we have a special and powerful situation astrologically. A brand-new moon phase is beginning tonight in Virgo, and the sun is several days into its transit of Virgo. I think it’s special when we have a new moon coinciding with the sun’s entry into a sign, and what makes it powerful is the relationship or aspect between these two luminaries. As the sun sits on Virgo’s 4th degree and the moon on the 11th, they’re separated by 6 degrees. We call that a conjunction with 6 degrees of separation. Powerful!

A revival of new life and will power has been given to Virgo, and we’re blessed with mutable earth. We’re blessed with the ability to go with the flow, the ability to adjust and readjust, and the ability to experience without becoming too attached for the importance of figuring out what makes sense to us.

Virgo embodies precision, concentration, attention to detail, and the search for truth. It’s in the areas of service and health that we find a natural home and place for the manifestation of the Virgoan characteristics and energy.

With a brand-new moon phase beginning and Mercury in Libra, the heavens, through the various channels of communication, are calling for justice, balance, and harmony in the areas of service and health.

You can blog about it, write about it, talk about it, or make a video. Sometimes the rectification of a situation only requires that we bring attention to it. When you take something out of the darkness and place it in the light, you can see it for what it truly is.

If something doesn’t feel right internally, or something doesn’t look right, speak up. Your health is important; do your own research and if that’s not enough call or go see a doctor.

If you have extensive knowledge or consider yourself to be an expert in a field related to health or service, it’s time for you to speak up.

You might have a unique perspective or an understanding about something complicated, but because you’re personable and easy to talk to, you might be able to help someone internalize and wrap his head around something that never made sense to him.

Lies are told and the truth is hidden for many reasons, but sometimes it’s done to protect people. That’s acceptable to an extent. When withholding information creates problems, complications, and imbalance, then it’s time to release it. That means you’re ready.

Tonight, a new phase begins, and it culminates on September 10th with a full moon in Pisces. Your ability to be mutable and go with the flow has presented you with this awesome opportunity to figure out what does or doesn’t make sense. With that, you can begin this phase by sowing the proper seeds.

Focus your attention specifically and directly on the problem and the imbalance. Dig; do your research, study, and find the hidden truth.

When you find the truth, you may keep it to yourself, or you may communicate your discovery with others, but becoming the savior of the world isn’t the calling here. It’s about validating sense with truth and restoring balance. On the night of the full moon, you’ll be able to see the difference.

Starting tonight and lasting until the night of the full moon, the communications will center around justice and making things right. Those who work in service have an obligation to the people they serve, and often, they’re held to higher standards. You should know this before you get involved.

At this time there will be zero tolerance for abuse of power, or withholding important truths. Astraea may have left humans and earth at the end of the Silver Age, but the spirit of Virgo will forever seek justice when it comes to protecting the innocent and those pure of heart.
