New Moon in Virgo! /Moonscopes for the weekend
The month of August ends with a New Moon at 7 degrees in Virgo on Saturday, August 30. Virgo is a mutable (flexible) sign, the natural ruler of the 6th house of health, work and service. Issues will surface around these areas and this is a perfect time begin a new work/health regimes. Virgo has to do with organization and the picking apart of things, situations, and even people to discover what is not working.
Virgo is an earth sign and deals with the earth--the time of harvest is upon us. While we are no longer as a rule, harvesters of agricultural products, we will harvest the results of past efforts and situations.
Many of us will turn our attention toward themes of increased health and awareness, weight loss, and other health/self improvement programs. With heavy Saturn in Virgo as well at 11 degrees, the decisions we make now will have repercussions for a long time to come.
And while Saturn may be a little heavy, the New Moon is trine Jupiter creating a harmonious angle to the planet of luck, optimism and expansion.
With this new moon in Virgo opposing Uranus, even though there is a wide orb, I expect to see unusual weather patterns occurring over the weekend. While it is not possible to make absolute predictions without looking at the entire birth chart, In a general sense the New Moon will effect the Sun Signs in the following manner:
Aires-6th house- Work and health
Taurus-5th house-Children, friends, love affairs
Gemini-4th house-the home, foundation, end or beginning of the matter
Cancer-3rd house-the mind-travel-immediate family members
Leo-2ond house-money and self-esteem
Virgo-1st house-the self, new beginnings
Libra-12th house- institutions, hospitals, seclusion, things secret and hidden, the subconscious mind
Scorpio-11th house-friends hopes and wishes, groups and organizations
Sagittarius-10th house-profession and career, priorities
Capricorn--9th house-travel, publishing, legal and medical matters, outlook on life
Aquarius-8th house-change and transformation, sex, other people's money, death
Pisces-7th house-partners, relationships, open enemies, courts
