Annually, from approximately August 22-23 to September 22-23, the sun makes its trip through the sixth sign of the zodiac, Virgo, the service-oriented, practical, and communicative mutable earth sign. Throughout the Maiden’s season, no matter what sign you were born under, you’re likely to feel pumped to get organized, take care of everyday tasks, step up your self-improvement routine, make lists, and be useful to others. Although this all sounds super productive, it could be a bit of a switch from Leo season’s focus on fun, luxury, romance, and oh yeah, all of the filtered selfies. But if all the back-to-school buzz didn’t give it away, summer is winding down, which goes hand-in-hand with this astrological transition.And while it might not be all about stepping into your power and channeling your inner Mufasa to roar your dreams into existence, the detail-focused mutable earth sign’s moment in the sun can be just as empowering in a different way. Because Virgo is ruled by messenger Mercury, the planet of communication, transportation, and technology, you can expect heightened mental energy and a bolstered ability to connect with others as well as potentially more opportunities to travel. Virgo vibes also celebrate the beauty of details, organization, prioritizing your health and well-being, and caring for others.But while the sun moves through Virgo every year, the moon and planets move at different paces and patterns in our solar system, so you can expect a unique experience during every sign’s season.

Here’s a glimpse at Virgo season 2021.The season is bookended by two full moons.Although the first full moon technically falls in Leo season, it happens on the morning of the day that the sun shifts into Virgo. At 29 degrees of future-minded Aquarius, joining forces with lucky Jupiter, this full moon sets the scene for us to move into the Maiden’s moment reveling in dramatic, fortune-filled vibes.

Then, on September 20, we’ll hit Virgo SZN’s full moon in its sister sign Pisces, which can intensify dreams, spirituality, taking us out of the rational, pragmatic perspective that Virgo tends to offer up. And with the confident sun so close to go-getter Mars, it could be a time to make bold and daring moves that are inspired by your wildest fantasies.You’ll be able to envision and implement practical but exciting changes. Virgo’s new moon falls on Labor Day, Monday, September 6, forming a sweet trine to game-changer Uranus in Taurus, which can spur rebellious change and creative breakthroughs. But because both are in earth signs, you could feel like no matter how much you shake things up, your feet are still planted solidly on the ground. At the same time, action-oriented Mars and transformative Pluto harmonize, fueling inner power, and romantic Venus trines lucky Jupiter, delivering an abundance of luck in love.Relationships and pursuits of beauty and money will get more intense.Venus has been super happy in Libra since August 16, as it’s one of the two signs it rules, and we all benefit from the planet of love being in a joyful spot, because it can function at the height of its power.

But from September 10 to October 7, it’ll move through Scorpio, a spot where it’s considered to be in its “detriment,” or a position in which it feels uncomfortable and struggles to do its thing. The fixed water sign is all about the deeper, darker side of life and rules the eighth house of death, rebirth, sex, and transformation. While all of those heavy-duty themes do come up in long-term relationships, they’re not exactly in tune with Venus’ lighthearted, partnership-oriented tone. So expect your closest bonds to take on a more serious feeling, particularly as you’ll be more inclined to talk about and do work around shared resources and sexual intimacy.You could find it tough to stick to a particular game plan.First of all, Virgo is a mutable sign, meaning it’s flexible but also suffers from indecision. And from August 30 until it goes retrograde (yep, steel yourself for that) on September 27, we’ll have messenger Mercury in charming but wishy-washy Libra. This can enhance diplomacy and a push for equality in our interactions.

And then, from September 14 to October 30, action-oriented Mars will be in the cardinal air sign that’s all about initiating but not so keen on follow-through. And being that the nature of Mars is to move forward and cross the finish line in a bold, assertive way, it’s no surprise that the go-getter planet is also in its detriment here. (BTW, you can figure out if a planet is in its detriment if it’s in a sign that’s opposite a sign it rules. In this case, Mars rules Aries, which is the sister sign/opposite of Libra.)For that reason, it could be harder to take care of business, as you’ll be doing the Libra thing and trying to play both sides of every issue to the point where it potentially curbs progress. It’s not going to be as bad as a Mars retrograde, but don’t be surprised if you find yourself taking several steps forward and a few steps back before you can go forward again. And because Mars shapes how we express anger, and Libra hates conflict, watch out for passive-aggressiveness.You can look forward to a variety of transformative moments.Anytime an earth sign’s season begins, it enhances the positive side of transformative Pluto, currently in cardinal earth sign Capricorn, amplifying your ability to step into your power and burn down whatever is no longer serving you in order to create something new and satisfying.

On August 26, messenger Mercury trines Pluto, strengthening your ability to propose a plan for making dreams a reality. And on September 16, the confident sun does the same, making this a moment for taking the reins and moving toward fulfillment of a deep desire.

Five Of Swords UPRIGHT: Conflict, disagreements, competition, defeat, winning at all costs

REVERSED: Reconciliation, making amends, past resentment

Five Of Swords Description: In the Five of Swords, a sly-looking man picks up three swords from the ground. He glances over his shoulder at two men who are walking away with their shoulders slouched, conveying a sense of sadness and loss. Two more swords are strewn across the grass, suggesting a battle has been fought and lost. The sky is cloudy and tumultuous, a sign that not all is well even though the fighting has stopped.

WELCOME TO VIRGO SEASON

Annually, from approximately August 22-23 to September 22-23, the sun makes its trip through the sixth sign of the zodiac, Virgo, the service-oriented, practical, and communicative mutable earth sign. Throughout the Maiden’s season, no matter what sign you were born under, you’re likely to feel pumped to get organized, take care of everyday tasks, step up your self-improvement routine, make lists, and be useful to others. Although this all sounds super productive, it could be a bit of a switch from Leo season’s focus on fun, luxury, romance, and oh yeah, all of the filtered selfies. But if all the back-to-school buzz didn’t give it away, summer is winding down, which goes hand-in-hand with this astrological transition.

And while it might not be all about stepping into your power and channeling your inner Mufasa to roar your dreams into existence, the detail-focused mutable earth sign’s moment in the sun can be just as empowering in a different way. Because Virgo is ruled by messenger Mercury, the planet of communication, transportation, and technology, you can expect heightened mental energy and a bolstered ability to connect with others as well as potentially more opportunities to travel. Virgo vibes also celebrate the beauty of details, organization, prioritizing your health and well-being, and caring for others.

But while the sun moves through Virgo every year, the moon and planets move at different paces and patterns in our solar system, so you can expect a unique experience during every sign’s season. Here’s a glimpse at Virgo season 2021.

The season is bookended by two full moons.

Although the first full moon technically falls in Leo season, it happens on the morning of the day that the sun shifts into Virgo. At 29 degrees of future-minded Aquarius, joining forces with lucky Jupiter, this full moon sets the scene for us to move into the Maiden’s moment reveling in dramatic, fortune-filled vibes.

Then, on September 20, we’ll hit Virgo SZN’s full moon in its sister sign Pisces, which can intensify dreams, spirituality, taking us out of the rational, pragmatic perspective that Virgo tends to offer up. And with the confident sun so close to go-getter Mars, it could be a time to make bold and daring moves that are inspired by your wildest fantasies.

You’ll be able to envision and implement practical but exciting changes.

Virgo’s new moon falls on Labor Day, Monday, September 6, forming a sweet trine to game-changer Uranus in Taurus, which can spur rebellious change and creative breakthroughs. But because both are in earth signs, you could feel like no matter how much you shake things up, your feet are still planted solidly on the ground. At the same time, action-oriented Mars and transformative Pluto harmonize, fueling inner power, and romantic Venus trines lucky Jupiter, delivering an abundance of luck in love.

Relationships and pursuits of beauty and money will get more intense.

Venus has been super happy in Libra since August 16, as it’s one of the two signs it rules, and we all benefit from the planet of love being in a joyful spot, because it can function at the height of its power. But from September 10 to October 7, it’ll move through Scorpio, a spot where it’s considered to be in its “detriment,” or a position in which it feels uncomfortable and struggles to do its thing. The fixed water sign is all about the deeper, darker side of life and rules the eighth house of death, rebirth, sex, and transformation. While all of those heavy-duty themes do come up in long-term relationships, they’re not exactly in tune with Venus’ lighthearted, partnership-oriented tone. So expect your closest bonds to take on a more serious feeling, particularly as you’ll be more inclined to talk about and do work around shared resources and sexual intimacy.

You could find it tough to stick to a particular game plan.

First of all, Virgo is a mutable sign, meaning it’s flexible but also suffers from indecision. And from August 30 until it goes retrograde (yep, steel yourself for that) on September 27, we’ll have messenger Mercury in charming but wishy-washy Libra. This can enhance diplomacy and a push for equality in our interactions. And then, from September 14 to October 30, action-oriented Mars will be in the cardinal air sign that’s all about initiating but not so keen on follow-through. And being that the nature of Mars is to move forward and cross the finish line in a bold, assertive way, it’s no surprise that the go-getter planet is also in its detriment here. (BTW, you can figure out if a planet is in its detriment if it’s in a sign that’s opposite a sign it rules. In this case, Mars rules Aries, which is the sister sign/opposite of Libra.)

For that reason, it could be harder to take care of business, as you’ll be doing the Libra thing and trying to play both sides of every issue to the point where it potentially curbs progress. It’s not going to be as bad as a Mars retrograde, but don’t be surprised if you find yourself taking several steps forward and a few steps back before you can go forward again. And because Mars shapes how we express anger, and Libra hates conflict, watch out for passive-aggressiveness.

You can look forward to a variety of transformative moments.

Anytime an earth sign’s season begins, it enhances the positive side of transformative Pluto, currently in cardinal earth sign Capricorn, amplifying your ability to step into your power and burn down whatever is no longer serving you in order to create something new and satisfying. On August 26, messenger Mercury trines Pluto, strengthening your ability to propose a plan for making dreams a reality. And on September 16, the confident sun does the same, making this a moment for taking the reins and moving toward fulfillment of a deep desire.

The card for this week is the Ace of Swords.

The Ace of Swords marks a wave of new energy from the intellectual realms. You may be on the verge of a significant breakthrough or a new way of thinking that allows you to view the world with clear eyes.
Make time to meditate regularly to clear away the mental chatter and make the most of this intellectual potential.
See this card as a sign of encouragement. It says your mind is in ‘expansion mode’. You are open to embracing new ideas, craving stimulation, and you’ll jump at the next opportunity to learn something new.

Ask Your Tarot Cards: How can you embrace this Ace’s motivation and take action on your new ideas?

Get ready for a whirlwind of disruption and resistance to structure, because the August 2021 full moon is set to adorn our skies on Saturday, August 22 at 8:02 a.m. EST (5:02 a.m. PST). That means we’re kicking off Virgo season with another full moon (the last one was on July 23) in the rebellious zodiac sign of Aquarius, which inspires us to embrace our most authentic selves. August’s full moon is considered a seasonal blue moon, which marks the middle between a solstice and equinox. Spiritually, the energy of the blue moon is extra dynamic, urging the collective to make moves in our lives, whether it pertains to our career, social life, or creative projects we’re passionate about. So if you’re wondering how the August 2021 full blue moon will affect your zodiac sign, think stronger motivation, bolder decisions, and reckless impulses.

Added to the chaos is Mars (the planet ruling over determination, impulses, and aggression) entering meticulous Virgo and aspecting Uranus (the planet of disruption and shock). In other words, our plans won’t always hold weight to the uncertainty of life, but surprises can often lead to serendipitous and happy accidents. This intense lunation advises us to expect the unexpected and learn to use a change of plans to our advantage.

August’s Blue Moon Is Ready To Mess Up Your Routine. It will probably come as a surprise to exactly no one that Leo season, known for boosting self-assurance and empowering you to use your voice, will not be going out quietly this year. On the same exact day that the confident sun slips from the fixed fire sign into service-oriented, down-to-earth mutable earth sign Virgo, we’ll get our second Aquarius full moon of the year (which makes it a blue moon) — happening at exactly 8:01 a.m. ET/5:01 a.m. PT on August 22. And although it sounds like it could be a redux of July’s full moon in the sign of the Water Bearer, this one has a totally different, lucky-in-love vibe. 

Aquarius prioritizes community over self and loathes convention. Meanwhile, their opposite, or sister, sign, Leo, has no shame taking selfies, dedicating quality time to self-care, embracing what’s popular, and presenting it in a way that earns them lots of applause (hello, countless pop stars — from Madonna to Dua Lipa — born under the fire sign). And while this full moon is happening in the sign of the Water Bearer, it opposes the sun in its last degree of Leo. 

On the flip side, taking this energy too far could result in greediness and self-absorption, which is a reminder to remain grounded while you capitalize on the buoyancy and glitz of the moment.

A beautiful connection to Jupiter sparks abundance.

The main aspect that the full moon makes is a close conjunction with Jupiter, the planet of fortune and expansion, giving way to a burst of optimism, luck, and success. With both in personable Aquarius, you could feel especially connected to your dearest friends, closest colleagues, a team or group or club that you adore being a part of. And it’ll also make it easier to hit it off with new connections. Magnifying Jupiter’s message is generally “the bigger, the better,” and in this case, while it makes a major appearance in communal-minded Aquarius, it’ll urge you to welcome anyone and everyone who’s game to join your circle. 

Venus and Saturn bring serious romance to the table.

On the full moon day, the planet of love, now in partnership-oriented Libra, and the planet of commitment, in Aquarius  — yep, just like this full moon and Jupiter — will be heading toward a harmonizing trine, infusing this full moon with a weighty tone around romance. If you’re single, you could decide that flirtation and fun just aren’t cutting it anymore, and it’s time to more quickly 86 anyone who isn’t on the same page in terms of what they’re looking for. In a situation or a relationship you’d like to see make it to a more mature level? You could really be feeling this aspect, as it’ll help you envision, stand up for, and move the ball forward on deepening your bond — or moving in whatever direction is going to help you feel the most fulfilled in love.  

Mars and Uranus could set off fireworks.

But this full moon isn’t only bringing out the heavy-duty “put a ring on it” feels. It’s also happening at the same time that Mars, the planet of action and sex, in Virgo forms a lovely trine to Uranus, the planet of change and rebellion, in Taurus which could help you get out of your comfort zone — especially in the bedroom. Together, these planets want you to let your freak flag fly. And because they’re in grounded, sensual earth signs, you should feel free to take your sweet time making your most eyebrow-raising fantasies a reality. 

You’ll want to embrace intimacy, pleasure, and connection.

This full moon could be a culmination point stemming from not only the August 8 Leo new moon but the new moon in Aquarius that happened on February 11, 2021. That moon was marked by a super lucky-in-love conjunction between romantic Venus and fortunate Jupiter. Think back to that moment, and it could be that you were kicking off a whole new chapter — potentially related to your love life — that’s now come to fruition. 

With Jupiter and Venus playing starring roles yet again, but serious Saturn showing up in the picture, we’re very clearly at a culmination point. This full moon could ignite decisions that can lead you to writing the love story you’ve been dreaming of. 

Here, how this Aquarius full moon will affect you, based on your sign. (Pro-tip: Be sure to read both your sun and your rising sign, if you know it.

LAW OF ABUNDANCE: DO THIS EVERY NEW MOON.

The Law Of Abundance – Learning To Receive

What are Abundance Checks?

Abundance checks are a tool we can use to create more abundance in our lives. They are written within 24 hours after a New Moon.

Surprisingly, you really don’t even need to believe that the check will work when you write it. You will however be amazed at the results, as you will see increased abundance in your life, in some
life area. It is not always financial, but certainly in an area that you need.

Abundance is so much more than ‘money’. Perhaps a friend invites you to lunch and pays. Perhaps you are at lunch with a friend and they offer their expert advice on some area of your life. These are simple examples of Abundance. Abundance comes in many forms.
Be GRATEFUL for all that comes into your life.

There is a traditional manner, which has been handed down. If you do not have a checking account you can draw a check on a piece of paper and fill it out the same way – the results will be the same, more abundance for you.

New Moon Abundance check writing is a ritual for manifesting, using the energy of the New Moon each month along with Astrology and the house the new moon touches on for you!  This ritual has been handed down through so many people that its origin has become unknown.

Write the check for whatever you want to manifest.
