Paradox of Virgo
Virgo Season is the call to our inner anchor. Dry, mutable, earth. Virgo hosts the turning of summer, and in turn our own quieting of spirit. Within her season we see bounty of the earth, but also the harvest. We still feel the heat of the dry pulsing Sun, and yet know even this fading fast. Virgo possesses a paradox. This is the haunt of Virgo placements, wanting to expand and contract all at the same time, often creating a very real anxiety. Full of life and aware of death.
Moon-day Musings 8.21.23
An array of transits dance across the sky this week, including Venus taking her place as a morning star and squaring Jupiter, Virgo season kicks off with the ruler, Mercury, stationing retrograde and co-present to Mars’ opposition with Neptune. The week closes with a First Quarter Moon at 0 degrees of Sagittarius.
