The Sky Now - An Astrology Blog

We have a New Moon in Earth element sign Virgo today, and Pluto the transformer has retrograded out of its evolutionary Aquarius transit back into the Earth element sign of Capricorn for the next eleven weeks. A New Moon in Virgo is a time to cleanse and purify, to remove what is toxic and unhealthy from our lives, from our behaviors, habits and practices, and from within ourselves. This is a time to weed the metaphoric garden of your life. Move on from what needs to be moved on from in your life. Take care of the Earth element business in your life. Inventory. Organize. Downsize. Ground yourself. Look within. Consider whether negative Virgo energy manifestations have taken root inside you such as over-focus on serving the needs of others around you at the expense of looking after your own needs, obsessive anxiety based over-thinking, ego-based virtue-posturing righteous judgment, or radicalized zealotry. Practice internal alchemy. Create a better blend. Consider practicing abstinence in areas you feel you have been over indulging in or have been engaging in bad practices and patterns in. A purifying detox can help bring clarity and can facilitate spiritual awakening and awareness. Develop and form a spiritual practice you can utilize in your daily life. Make time in your own life for the arts, crafts and hobbies you love. In your life in the world, go out and advocate for peace in all the places on the planet Earth afflicted by war.
