1st of 2 New Moons in Virgo: Time to Reveal, Heal & Integrate
Welcome to the first of two New Moons in Virgo! This lunation was exact in the wee hours on the East Coast and 11:06pm on 8/22 on the West Coast of the US. The second New Moon will coincide with the partial solar eclipse on September 21st.
These New Moons, along with the powerful eclipses of September, and the Autumnal Equinox offer us profound opportunities to step out of the old and into the new - into whom we are becoming.
Virgo is all about integration. The energies of the New Moons offer us two opportunities to integrate deep healing and organization on all levels - physical and etheric.
These energies will support us in letting go of old beliefs, behaviors, and unconscious fears/limitations, as well as finding greater clarity about the things we have been finding confusing. This is because in these energies we are able to access more of the unconscious and make it conscious. If we are paying attention and being mindful, these energies will reveal our hidden impulses and the unconscious triggers for our behaviors. In fact, much will be revealed to us individually and collectively in the coming weeks.
And, such revelation becomes even more important as we will no longer be able to use the coping mechanisms of control or overriding we are accustomed to using to not feel our feelings - they will simply not work any longer.
This New Moon also facilitates our stepping into our personal power from a place of wholeness - that is power combined with love, compassion, and humility. We are already in the process of metamorphosis and the energies surrounding this New Moon will provide us opportunities to dive in deeper. Notably, this metamorphosis involves healing and integrating our aspects and soul fragments, thus providing us with increased access to our souls’ passions and inspirations.
Spirit encourages us to become aware of our thoughts and the words we use - especially in our inner dialogues - for these are creative energies that we are emanating. Are you willing to drop and shift self-criticism and judgment? This is part of healing and coming into coherence.
This is also a time where we can revolutionize our life by reorganizing our daily routines. As we align within, we will embrace the energies of awakening that are bearing down upon us from the cosmos and those rising up beneath our feet and all around us from Gaia.
Reality is indeed becoming more malleable and mutable during this time as well. Have you noticed? 😉
Take the time to connect within today and breathe deeply into your heart space. As you allow your mind and body to quiet, connect with the energies of your guidance team. Then, call forth the energies of this New Moon. Allow your breath and heart to guide you as you set your intentions. Focus on letting go of the old whether it is known or unknown, conscious or unconscious; focus on health, healing, and integration into greater wholeness. In addition to your personal intentions, also set similar beneficial intentions for the collective and for the planet - for Virgo is the sign of practical service to others.
And, then trust, Dear Ones, both in yourself and in the process. You are in the thick of it. These energies may feel restless and even irritable, exacerbated by unexpected and rapid changes. Have faith that everything that happens is part of the awakening and expansion for us all.
This is the first part of the wormhole energies that will continue to build through this eclipse season 🌀
