Mercury in Virgo & New Moon

Mercury in Virgo / August 29, 2019

To open this cycle we have to take into account an important detail, the trend that is generated by repowering Virgo and this in turn leading to several nearby planets under their order and direction, if just last week we were entering with Venus and Mars in Virgo , and perhaps even more relevant, the Sun in Virgo, because this coming August 29 Mercury (the communicator) enters the sign of the virgin, so before celebrating the new moon and all those projects that we want to sow , we are going to focus on that we have the Sun (the triumph and the light), Mercury (your way of communicating and understanding), Venus (your internal desires) and Mars (your capacity for action) being ordered under the sign of the virgin.

This stellar position is more than convenient to reorder your life from scratch, if the next new moon comes to embark on something new, this planetary position is telling you that before you start something new, you must clean and purify yourself of the old, from which you drag with you and is no longer useful or does not fulfill any more function in your life, apply to this to your love relationships, treatments, projects, processes, and academic studies, it is time to close old cycles that were not properly completed or used to properly focus on the Restart and search for something new.

The position of Mercury, Mars, Venus and the Sun in Virgo opens a door to order and the organization of different aspects of your life that you should focus on before the beginning of September, Mercury in Virgo invites you to debug communications and your understanding, focusing on studying what you really need and not wasting time accumulating unnecessary information, also guides you to stop making decrees about the past and the negative aspects, just focus on decreeing the positive for yourself and your environment, Venus Virgo invites you to clean your relationships to live a restart of them, close cycles, say goodbye to those individuals who are with you but do not contribute anything positive or constructive and eliminate contacts from your network that are there just for nostalgia, Virgo is the sign of order and something that Virgo always does is force us to release everything that brings us nothing.

On the other hand, Mars in Virgo began to feel weeks ago, leading us to activate certain internal processes and motivate us to undertake something new, that if, Mars, the impulsive and ruthless warrior tends to get bored every time he is in Virgo, because while Mars is used to acting like a wild warrior who is always ready to use his spear and sword, Virgo forced him to plan a more elaborate strategy to carry out his action and attack plans, so calm down, that fatigue that you will feel for the Long routines and almost bureaucratic processes for any action you wish to perform are only part of the process to carry out better-planned actions with better long-term results.

A new moon in Virgo / August 30, 2019

As we always say in practical astrology, the new moon is the best time to create or start something new, to immerse ourselves in a new project, to initiate a process of change and renewal or to embrace the next stage of some project. But in this case August has given us a special situation, two new moons in the same month, although it is not something “never seen before”, nor is it something that can go unnoticed, it is a month of beginnings and restarts, a The whole month dedicated to the Renaissance, and the fact of the two new moons next to a next stellar moment directed by the earth signs, will give us the firmness to undertake lasting projects without inconveniences.

Take into account that Virgo is an earth sign, it is also the sign of order, and like all earth signs, its lunar cycles give us firmness, seriousness in our short and long term projects, and clarity for decision making smart. In the case of the moon in Virgo, it is well known for its ability to provide us with space to ingeniously organize and manage our time and our agenda.

The black moon

The black moon is the period of five or six days before the new moon, during this period your body feels a bit more fatigued and bored of returning to the routine, each week start looks more overwhelming than the previous one, but it is a normal process because the moon, who nourishes with your energy your subconscious and your hours of sleep, is plunging into darkness to renew itself from scratch, so as the moon goes dark in the signs of cancer and read, before Reaching fullness at rest, well into the process of the new moon in Virgo, has less energy for you, and this forces you to make use of your own energy reserves to survive.

So as you can imagine all the previous week (between August 25 and August 29) we are living a period of black moon, which is that period where the energy that the moon transmits to us to internally feed our dreams and projects is decreasing, and with that it asks us to focus more on preparation and less on the action prior to the new moon.

This Virgo cycle

This new moon in Virgo opens a six-month cycle until March 9 that will close this cycle with the full moon in Virgo, get ready to show your intentions and projects with this new moon because it is a good time to do it, you have a period six months from here where you will feel a lunar reinforcement that is supporting each of those processes that you are living, so get to work.

Tracking retrograde Uranus in Taurus

While all this is a period of the restart, it is important not to forget that position of Uranus (the king of heaven) retrograde in Taurus until the beginning of 2020. This position of the king of clouds leads us to think that perhaps our goals are far from our reach, that we should put our feet on the ground and focus more on other smaller projects, the latter is noted with great force in the field of politics, where this astrological position strongly affects leaders and rulers, causing them to delay and even cancel all kinds of projects just because they think "they are beyond their reach" and that they should focus more on continuing the processes that had already been initiated previously, thus ignoring all their advisors.

South America

We have previously discussed in my social networks that the movements of the outer planets of the solar system (Uranus, Neptune, Saturn, and Pluto) have always had a strong and very particular influence in the countries of South America, for example, the position of Saturn and Pluto retrograde in Capricorn, it gives an indomitable firmness to the rulers, but not to their governments, it is noteworthy that the political changes in South America are the order of the day, the political parties live constant changes almost daily but the politicians and state leaders maintain their position, even as countries such as Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela, falter in view of the media.

While these planets in the chimeric sign of Capricorn give them some firmness, it also exposes them to the media generating all kinds of changes in their governments, these changes (although they take time to externalize) are strengthened by the position of Uranus in Taurus, The king of kings does not come to change any politician of his position, but he comes to make each next ruler shine, thus motivating his people to make the necessary changes to begin a different 2020 for the countries of South America.
