What to Expect for this Virgo New Moon

THE NEW MOON IN VIRGO
We welcome the phase of the new moon in Virgo on August 27th, 2022. New moons are a time for fresh starts and intention setting, so use this night to write down your goals and reflect on your dreams.
WHAT DOES A NEW MOON REPRESENT?
A new moon represents a time of new beginnings that allows for a reset of goals, desires, and a beautiful time for new intentions to be put into action. Imagine a symbolic planting of the seeds – a time to gain nourishment for the future, expand, and grow into fruition. The energy surrounding a new moon is like a tide that brings all of our emotions to the surface and helps instill a heightened sense of awareness of these emotions. Scientists believe that humans have a direct reaction to the Earth’s magnetic field that occurs with the new moon phase.
WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A VIRGO?
The zodiac sign of Virgo embodies the feminine energy strongly connected to the element of Earth. Virgos are known to be delicate and sensitive, but also critical and picky. They are logical, independent, self-aware, kind, and oftentimes have the most success in the business world. Though those that fall under the Virgo sign tend to be very strict with their finances, they possess excellent money management ideals.
In a relationship dynamic, Virgos can be regarded as the “ideal partner“ for most excluding the more emotion-based signs. These star children can be hard to read and find that their partners can at times question why they have a hard time expressing how they truly feel. A Virgo’s biggest challenge will be learning how to open up and be more free with their emotional releases.

HOW TO CONNECT WITH THE VIRGO NEW MOON ENERGY
Discover what aspects of your career need more nurturing in a financial aspect.
Spend more time harnessing the energy connected to the Earth. Go on a hike to see the beautiful views, swim in the ocean, rock climb for endurance, or meditate on a big grass field to feel the air and elements.
Accept the help of others that will come to you. We all try our best to stand on our own two feet, but it is important to express our emotional state and lean on those we care about in times of need.
Find ways to release emotions in a healthy dynamic. Schedule a talk therapy session, journal, visit your local holistic wellness center for energy therapy, or meditate with sound healing.
NEW MOONS ARE A GREAT TIME TO JOURNAL
Think about your music library - dive deep into your senses to think about how your ears react to the vibrational energy of one of your favorite songs. Do you notice your body having any sensory reactions to certain music genres or tones? Do you notice any emotions that come up when listening to a sad or happy song? Use those feelings or emotions to expand on any blocks you have had emotionally this past month and how we can release what no longer serves us.
