Virgo Season 2024: Body as Temple
On August 16, 02:17 PM —
On August 22, 10:55 AM EST, Virgo season 2024 begins. The Sun leaves Leo and enters Virgo, where he remains until September 22. Virgo season 2024 brings the spotlight on the need to treat our physical body as our temple, on the importance of integrating mindfulness into our daily lives, and on the value of approaching work from the perspective of service.
The start of Virgo season is especially relevant for the people born with planets or angles in Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces). The individuals personally impacted by the Sun’s ingress into Virgo will feel compelled to put their lives in order, clarify their priorities, focus on their health and wellness, and renovate their relationship to work and service.
From Leo to Virgo Season: Refinement, Improvement, and Optimization
The Sun’s transit through his home sign of Leo brought the spotlight on our desire for authentic creative expression, self-actualization, and heart-centered living. Leo season highlighted our desire to be authentically expressed and be seen as we are. This time of year served as a reminder of the importance of pursuing what brings us joy and choosing to be active participants in life rather than passive observers.
The Sun’s transit from the Yang, Fixed, Fire sign of Leo to the Yin, Mutable, Earth sign of Virgo encourages humility and emphasizes our desire to become more aware of what can be improved, refined, and optimized, and to work on those areas. The Sun’s ingress into Virgo is connected with a tendency to internalize our attention and focus on self-analysis and self-improvement while making sure we stay on top of our daily tasks and commitments.
There is a noticeable energetic shift around this time. As the holiday season comes to an end, many of us come back to our habitual routines and feel drawn to organize the months ahead in a way that allows us to prioritize what is most important. Virgo season tends to be a time of reprioritization, centered on improving functionality and gaining awareness of what supports our wellness and health and what doesn’t.
Sun enters Virgo: Body as Temple
Virgo is the sign traditionally associated with the harvest season: the Sun’s transit here brings the spotlight on the value of discernment, of being able to select, to tell what is useful from what isn’t, and to know what our priorities are in the present moment.
As we are dealing with an Earth sign, Virgo season gives us an opportunity to recover our inherent connection to the body and Nature’s cycles. Every year, the Sun’s transit through Virgo reminds us that our body is our temple and our responsibility is to treat it as such.
Virgo is the second earth sign of the Zodiac and not only seeks to inhabit the body but to understand the body, learn how to take care of it, and optimize our health and wellness. At the stage of evolution corresponding to Virgo, we gain awareness of the power of our daily decisions and habits, and we recognize the interconnectedness of all the different dimensions of health: we identify the link between the physical and the spiritual, as well as the impact of our emotional and mental health on our physical bodies.
Virgo season reminds us to choose with awareness, to be discerning about what we consume, and to be conscious of how our environments, our food choices, the news, the people we spend time with, our sleep, our movement habits, and the way we choose to spend our days impact our wellbeing.
Virgo season 2024: Eclipse Season is starting
During Virgo season 2024, the second Eclipse season of the calendar year starts, and we experience the first Eclipse in Pisces after nine years. The Lunar Nodes are still in Aries and Libra, and they are entering Pisces and Virgo in January 2025: the upcoming Lunar Eclipse in Pisces represents an anticipation of the energy shift brought by the Nodes’ changing signs.
The Virgo New Moon of September 2 opens the Eclipse portal, as it begins the lunar cycle that peaks with the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces. This event invites a renewal of our daily habits and of our relationship to work and service: it is a reminder to cultivate discernment and an opportunity to commit to taking care of ourselves and our health in new ways. The Sun and the Moon in Virgo are going to oppose retrograde Saturn in Pisces. This tension is an opportunity to reflect on what service means to us, on how we aspire to be of service, and on whether our daily decisions are in alignment with that.
The upcoming Full Moon is going to coincide with a partial Lunar Eclipse in the late degrees of Pisces, and the Moon is going to be conjunct with Pisces’ ruler Neptune. Around this time, the energy of culmination and closure will be amplified and we will be called to allow what is no longer True in our lives to dissolve. This event will bring the spotlight on our relationship with uncertainty, not knowing, endings, and transitions. The Lunar Eclipse in Pisces will ask us to surrender to a Higher Plan rather than trying to change the course of our lives by imposing our mind’s agenda on it.
Virgo season 2024: Embracing a Service-Oriented Approach to Life and Work
During this time of the year, we have an opportunity to deepen our ability to attune to what our body needs and commit to making choices that support our wellness. Virgo season inspires us to organize our lives and our days in ways that are conducive to our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
The Sun’s journey through Virgo is an opportunity to refine our awareness of the value of service, and practice perceiving and approaching our work and daily commitments from the perspective of service. This season is an invitation to explore what happens when we live in a service-oriented way and see what happens in our lives as an integral part of our spiritual practice, as an opportunity for Soul’s growth.
Virgo season 2024 and the upcoming Lunar Eclipse in Pisces conjunct Neptune will challenge us to integrate more mindfulness into our daily lives, find the spiritual lessons behind mundane situations, and release our attachment to outcome, our attachment to feeling in control of our narrative, and choose instead to put ourselves in service to Life.
