Virgo season: devotion in the details, clarity in the everyday.
TL;DR: Virgo season is here 🌿—time to ground, simplify, and create routines that support both you and those you serve. The Aug 22 New Moon is perfect for setting intentions before September’s eclipse shake-ups. Watch out for perfectionism, and lean into steady habits, small rituals, and clarity that help you meet change with ease.
What I Love About Virgo Season
Change is in the air! This week we move from Leo—a fixed sign—to Virgo, a mutable one. That shift invites adaptability, flexibility, and grounding in Virgo’s best traits: good health, intentional practicality, and service.
Virgo season coincides with “end-of-summer” and “back-to-school” energy. Even if no one in your life is starting classes, we’re all shifting from Leo’s bold heat toward shorter days and cooler energy. Virgo season invites us into new routines. It wants organization, order, and clean living so that we can be of service to others.
At its core, Virgo isn’t about self-fulfillment (though that’s a welcome bonus!) but about devotion. How can we tidy our spaces and minds for clarity? Eat better and move more so we’re strong when needed? Re-organize systems so they work smoothly for all?
Virgo’s shadow is perfectionism—when we slip into obsessiveness, we lose the ability to be of true service. If you notice nitpicky tendencies, take it as a gentle reminder to reset into healthier Virgo energy.
Routines and grounded practicality aren’t easy for me, so I cherish Virgo season’s reminder that grounded habits are the foundation for everything else.
What to Know About This Virgo Season
Virgo season begins with a new moon on August 22. New moons are ideal for planting seeds and setting intentions. This one invites you to ground, resource, and prepare—because the coming weeks may be a bit more chaotic than usual as we head into eclipse season.
This September brings intensity: a total lunar eclipse and full moon in Pisces on September 7, followed by another new moon with a partial eclipse on September 21 (the very last day of Virgo season). Expect some instability as the Moon and Sun shift light and shake up our rhythms!
And ask yourself: how can I edit my life, become more adaptable, and refine my routines now—so I’m ready to be of highest service through the changes ahead?
🌿 Virgo Season Practices
Here are a few simple ways to align with Virgo’s earthy, devotional energy this month:
Reflection prompts
What routines or habits help me feel grounded, clear, and resourced?
Where am I holding myself to impossible standards? How can I soften?
What in my life feels cluttered—physically, mentally, or emotionally—and how might I gently clear space?
How can I align my daily actions with being of service (to myself, loved ones, or the collective)?
Mini-practices
Declutter one drawer, folder, or corner—tiny steps create momentum.
Cook a nourishing, locally-sourced, down-to-earth meal as a ritual of care.
Move with devotion: walk, stretch, or do yoga not as “exercise” but as a way to tune into your body.
Take three mindful breaths and scan your body anytime perfectionism starts to creep in.
