THE WEEKEND EDIT
The Moon in Virgo has much to say without saying a word.
It sets the stage for an energy that, should you accept its invitation, finds you reflecting on your life as much as it reflects back to you who you are today.
And for most of today, it’s not going anywhere, which is both the plan and the point. This energy wants you to sit in quiet contemplation. Remember moments that you seldom allow yourself to think about. That’s all it wants from you.
And yet, that can be everything.
Virgo shows love by showing up. It’s the friend who brings soup instead of advice, the one who quietly fixes the thing without being asked and walks away, allowing you to discover two things: It’s fixed and you’ve got a true friend.
This Moon honors the quiet work, the unglamorous kind that holds everything together. Today, a small act of care for someone else, or for yourself, says more than any words ever could.
Such is the meaning of this Virgo Moon, particularly potent following the Virgo New Moon and yesterday’s planet convention, which threw the rules out the window.
Today, the sky reclaims the quiet.
Used correctly, you walk into the weekend with both energy and time on your side.
THE COSMIC WEATHER REPORT
Friday: No pressure system in play today, thanks to the quiet sky governed by the Moon in Virgo. Use it to look within, seek perspective, and show a bit of tenderness. Tonight, when the Moon enters Libra, you’ll be glad you did.
Saturday: Calm skies? No more. Mercury and its dances with Pluto and Neptune run the show today, putting you in a mood to interrogate people, online searches and the tomato plants in your garden. The problem, of course, is Neptune’s ability to throw clouds over the facts. Expect things to take longer than they should, with nothing quite in focus. This evening, the Libra Moon eyes Saturn. “It is what it is” is how you’ll close out the night.
Sunday: A touch of morning friction thanks to Mars can hang around well into the afternoon. Irritations may surface over the smallest of things. Pumpkin latte not up to par? Bagel in need of more cream cheese? These are not crimes, darling. Cope with these tragedies accordingly before you find yourself in a police lineup.
Besides, by evening Uranus begins taking over, and you suddenly realize you’ve been placing that order all wrong anyway.
Monday: While you were sleeping, the Moon left Libra for Scorpio, so expect your Monday to come in hot and heavy and devoid of patience for lesser souls. The energy will push you to move things, but best to wait till the afternoon. That’s when the Virgo Sun and Cancer Mars take over.
Translation: Good sense enters the picture.
POWER MOVE
Use the quiet moments to make an impact.
HOW THIS ENERGY HITS BY ELEMENT
FIRE SIGNS (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
Fire signs, hear this now. Your instincts mixed with this energy? An epic battle of the wills will take place ... unless, of course, you allow your head in the game. Because your first instinct is (always) to push, fix, decide or declare, your homework assignment is to resist the urge to turn every irritation into a full-blown crisis. By Monday afternoon, you’ll regain your balance. Until then, hang on tight.
Magnetism Move: Restraint first, action second. This is your mantra for the weekend. Repeat it, post it, write it on your hand with a Sharpie if you must.
EARTH SIGNS (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
It's a good weekend match for you Earthies. You’re unusually versed in this particular energy, especially Friday's. Quiet observation, practical care and letting things unfold without micromanaging them will get you further than trying to engineer the outcome. By Monday, your natural good sense becomes everyone else’s survival strategy. Apply liberally for the sake of humankind.
Magnetism Move: You do you. That’s your superpower this weekend. And it’s stunning.
AIR SIGNS (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)
OK, so expect to be a bit of a hot mess this weekend. Air signs will find their minds spinning too, too fast. Brilliant insights are absolutely possible, darling, but so are detours, assumptions and beautifully packaged nonsense that wastes your time. Question everything without interrogating everyone. By Sunday night, the piece you’ve been missing may finally click into place.
Magnetism Move: Don’t take anything that’s about to occur personal, even when it is. That’s how to win the game this weekend.
WATER SIGNS (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)
Oh wow. This weekend is a serious toss-up for you. You’ll feel more than people are saying, which is useful until you start filling in the blanks yourself — and let's be honest, that is often a terrible idea, isn't it? Friday favors reflection (which is good), Saturday requires discernment (ahem. Allow it to happen), and Monday turns the emotional volume way up (all bets are off). Trust your instincts, but give the facts a chance to catch up before you act, darling.
Magnetism Move: Keep your head and your instincts above water this weekend and doggy paddle your way through this energy, not against it.
See You Tuesday
Now, go on and weekend.
