September 6, 2021 — This is an incredibly productive new moon — despite the fact that the dreamy, drifting, mystical gas giant, Neptune, is widely opposing it. Mars, Sun and the Moon are, nevertheless, good friends with one another.

They give each other strength and provide fertile ground for improving and maintaining one’s kingdom/life. Neptune allows openings in our consciousness, to see and experience other states.

This alignment of planets is strong…really strong. They are in middle degree, signifying adulthood and the full maturity or strength to act competently in the world. The New Moon is cleaning house.

The sensitive and motherly Moon is between two masculine planets that are all about expressing willful energy to make changes happen (Mars the warrior and Sun the king). But in a feminine sign, its energies are all about supporting and taking care of what we love in life (ex: taking care of children or pets).

This lunar phase is not about creating or initiating something new (symbolized by the yang energy of the fire or air element or by the cardinal modality). In Virgo, people are going to be aggressively pushing for new ways to support existing relationships, establish good boundaries and get all the details as to why things do or don’t work, be that career, home life or relationships.

Virgo is also a sign that does the hard work necessary to support our passions and maintain healthy relationships with others. You may have a passion, but the qualities of the Mercury-ruled sign of Virgo are your ability, or inability, to practice and develop the skills for it.

It’s about setting aside time every day to dedicate yourself to what you like doing. This is why Mercury, the planet of management and communication, rules this changing earth sign.

But to even do all of that, we have to think (Mercury’s rulership) clearly and pragmatically about what our values are and what we are willing to keep or throw away. Virgo tends to worry a lot. This might happen to you.

But Virgo Moon gets emotionally hung up on worrying. Virgo wants to create an internal organization and get everything sorted out, as it were, so that life, on the whole, runs like a well-oiled machine.

Key Themes of New Moon in Virgo

• Taking charge of your health through hard work (Saturn in the 6th from the Moon)
• Manifesting wealth or the heart’s desire through the discipline of the mind
• Find ways to serve and support other people with your hands (skills/ability)
• Meditate on ways you can purge toxicity and enhance purity in your personal space
• Narrow down on what matters to you and what you want to protect/devote yourself to

The New Moon Intention

Reflect on what has to be taken care of in life so as to make sure that you can support your life’s passions and your relationships. Take new steps towards making yourself healthy. With Uranus in aspect, you might find alternative means of supporting and mastering your health and your day job or daily responsibilities.

Final Dispositor Venus in Libra

Mercury in the sign of the scales balances and controls this Moon. It brings about a strong need to make graceful compromises with other people. The lord of Mercury is ruled by Venus, in her own sign.

This is a great time to sort out our internal psychological structures and then connect with others in a large joyous way (Jupiter trine Venus). Harmonious and balanced relationships will give us the strength to better analyze our internal faults and purify our minds. Venus also rejuvenates and restores one’s health. See this new moon as a great time to take it easy and rest.

Uranus Trine Moon

Uranus’s harmonious trine creates a brand new way of organizing our lives. Uranus gives the “eureka” moment for how we can do something in a new or unorthodox way, a way that others might not have even heard of before. With earth signs in trine, we have great potential for earning new streams of income (material concerns).

With Neptune opposing this Moon, we find our emotions dissipating and dissolving into rather odd dreams and visions. Virgo is about establishing solid, practical boundaries and analyzing the facts of one’s life. But whenever Neptune aspects a planet, he gets it drunk and takes it into an alternate state of awareness, a transcendent and non-material perception of reality.

Neptune aspect Moon makes us feel a bit lovesick, collectively speaking. It also brings opportunities for spiritual realization through internal analysis. With Virgo, we see the faults and then long for something ideal, better and, though not very well thought out, utopian.

New Moon in Virgo for Each Zodiac Sign

Since this new moon sits with Mars and opposes a powerful Neptune in the opposite sign of Pisces, there is a certain level of determination and effort, balanced by consulting one’s intuitive or psychic notions, that should color each sign’s experience with this transit. Mars provides the energy to destroy that which makes us weak. Yet in Virgo, it can involve acting forcibly to boost one’s health and internal security so as to live a better and more productive life. Mercury sorts out what we want to keep and throw away; rather than neutrally discarding something, Mars destroys it completely.

Aries Ascendant/Moon

Your health and your day job are going to be very fruitful at this time. This is a great time to find new income streams, as the unexpected breaks in your financial security might lead to newer and better things coming in your life through your work and your day job. Take more responsibility with regards to your health and your working life. Face your problems and obstacles, and more unique opportunities will manifest themselves.

Taurus Ascendant/Moon

You’ll naturally feel more inspired and creative during the new moon. You might want a massive change of pace and decide to start creating something new to share with the world. Ask yourself whether or not you are living by your passions and if you’ve lost a sense of passion in attempting to make ends meet or find work just for material security.

Gemini Ascendant/Moon

The Moon awakens in a private place, the fourth house. You’ll want to purify, clean and organize your home. Even more so, you’ll feel more inspired to analyze your emotional space and what you need to purge or throw out of your life. Uranus casts his trine from an unseen house (12th), which means that you’ll find unexpected new opportunities to garner security through the consistent work you put into partnerships.

Cancer Ascendant/Moon

You’ll really want to improve your immediate environment, start learning new ways of engaging with others and finding the right way to communicate or express your will in the world. Thinking about taking a short trip to a nearby town or using your skills in a new way to start making a new income on the side? Now is a great time.

Leo Ascendant/Moon

Leo, you’ll have new streams of income that might come out of the blue, or from someplace that was previously forgotten about. You’ll think about what you want to do with your finances at this time. You might find a new diet that helps you out that this time. Uranus trines from the 10th house, a public house — you’ll have incredible opportunity for career growth and more financial security.

Virgo Ascendant/Moon

You might consider changing your identity a bit, be it through a hair cut, losing weight or putting yourself ‘out there’ in a new way. You’ll earn more money through creative work at this time. You might feel reinvigorated to reach out to others and dissolve barriers that you thought were blocking you from making deeper connections. With a strong Venus and Mercury in your second house, and Uranus in your ninth, you’ll have more luck in wealth and sudden earnings.

Libra Ascendant/Moon

You might have trouble sleeping, since you’ll have more visions and sudden insights arising out of your subconscious mind. With Uranus making a trine from your 8th house, of other people’s finances and emotional support, you might find unexpected and positive expenses come up. Get your spending under control, if that’s an issue. In general, you’ll start to reorganize how you spend energy (money included). Take a break, relax and get away from it all. Engage in self-reflective analysis and meditation. Your day to day working environment can be a little hazy and lacking order.

Scorpio Ascendant/Moon

Discern what your major goals really are and where you want to be with your career, or even what you’d like your network circle to look like. Sort out and eliminate any toxic behaviors or past-times that might hinder your progress towards better connections and experiences. This is a great time to just relax and remove yourself from the hectic chatter of the world, as you’ll feel more rejuvenated and ready to take it on afterwards.

Sagittarius Ascendant/Moon

Your career might take a turn for the better — even the way your reputation is received by others can see a boost. You’ll find new creative ways to gain through your career and your work, or find yourself surrounded by a better social circle. With Uranus trine from the sixth house, you can experience newfound luck and an increase of abundance in your day job or career.

Capricorn Ascendant/Moon

You could find yourself really interested in expanding your knowledge and your understanding of the world through long-distance travel. An unexpected boost of creativity could lead you to broadening your horizons in a practical and intelligent way. Take that trip. Get more knowledge or education by whatever means you find most plausible (not necessarily in favor of going back to university for an MBA…if that’s what you’re thinking).

Aquarius Ascendant/Moon

You might decide now is the time to really take control of your health, as well as pay off any debts you may have. Uranus trines the Moon from your fourth house, showing new ways of cultivating positive emotional security through properly structuring your life in a way that makes sense, given your current life circumstances.

Pisces Ascendant/Moon

You may have to work on improving your relationships and getting clear about who you want to be to others. You’ve been lost in a lot of idealism, romanticism and dreams about your reality of late. But with Virgo in the seventh, you’ll find new ways to sort out who you want to spend time with and who isn’t deserving of your time, energy and compassion. Uranus trining from your third house gives you new ideas on how to engage with romantic partnership and relationships.
