Welcome to the Virgo New Moon, the time in the zodiac calendar when we turn our focus to the necessary details of life, taking steps to get organized, focused, and healthy. Virgo isn’t only the sign that wants us to be clean and tidy, but create the necessary systems to keep life running smoothly. The Virgo New Moon is exact on September 6, 2021 at 8:52 pm EDT. That’s 5:52 pm Los Angeles, 1:52 am London on September 7, 2:52 am Johannesburg, 10:52 am Sydney, and 12:52 pm Auckland.
New moons are new beginnings. They help us reset and turn the page, so to speak. After the turmoil of the previous lunar cycle, a Virgo New Moon is a return to solid ground. It helps us restrategize and make plans, taking practical steps with new projects and other initiatives.
Thankfully we have a steady trine between Mercury and Saturn helping us out with this new moon. Whatever new ideas that you have or decisions that you make around this time will benefit from Saturn’s support. Whatever you begin will come more easily into form.
This new moon capitalizes on Mars’s time in Virgo, a planet that wants nothing more than action and hard work. Mars finds its drive and motivation in Virgo to clean up, get organized, focus on work, and even make changes in fitness and wellness.
With a trine between Mars and Pluto in Capricorn, we’ve got a lot of energy at our disposal over the course of this lunar month. In particular, Mars and Pluto are known for its high energy and competition. Set your sights on reaching a goal in the coming days and weeks.
That said, the new moon makes an exact trine to Uranus in Taurus. While last month’s new moon made a hard square, this new moon helps us to connect with Uranus’s revolutionary and transformative energy in a more practical way. Be open to new avenues and new approaches in the coming days and weeks as well as an avenue to ground and make real all the changes that we saw in August.
Do keep in mind that this new moon activates the lunar nodes as well as recent eclipses, such as the solar eclipse of June 10. Eclipse energy makes things happen. Events can come in and out of our lives. A door closes and another opens.
