Moon in Virgo - The Moon in Virgo sends us back to work after Leo's party mood
and gives us a to-do list. We become impatiently aware of what needs to be improved,
fixed or healed. Our compassion is strong, but we can get irritated at less industrious
folk.  This transit is a time to: weed, edit, critique, care, exercise, investigate, study, heal
but be gentle with others. Virgo asks us to consider what needs healing, what needs
composting. It's time to study, learn, train, organize and turn our compassion into pragmatic
action. Don't get stuck in your head. Weed, plant, and care for medicinal herbs. During
this transit important issues are practicality, organization, cleaning up your diet or your house,
healing your body or offering healing to others and attending to loose ends. After the Leo
party it's time to clean up our act and turn our attentions to the matter of our health and
hygiene. Practical Virgo cleans the house, sets things in order, washes the dog, and harvests
the vegetable. She purifies and organizes our diet, setting us on the healthy road for this
lunar cycle. It is a time of taking responsibility and cleaning up the messes we've been leaving.
Virgo brings painstaking attention to detail; housecleaning is a good way to work through a
Virgo transit. During a Virgo women are mentally active but there is a tendency to excessive
criticism both of oneself and others. Emotionally it's an inward time when we can reflect on
personal relationships. Moon in Virgo is the best time to work magick involving employment,
intellectual matters, health and dietary concerns. Healing rituals for ailments of the intestines
or nervous system are also done during this period of time. Those born under a Virgo Moon
sign are curious, responsible, caring but need to cultivate gentle acceptance of self and
others.
