The big astrological news of this weekend is the movement of Mercury into Virgo. Mercury has had its time to enjoy bold self-expression in Leo, and now it's time to get down to business! Virgo was traditionally thought of as the sign of The Virgin, but Virgo doesn't relate to a literal state of sexual virginity; it is the sign of purification, integration, and is the archetype of The Analyst. Anyone with prominent Virgo in their birth chart will be known for their attention to details and ability to organize all the pieces together into one coherent whole in an impressive way. This is also the sign of "The Perfectionist," and though the desire to attain new states of purity or "perfection" are necessary and admirable, it can manifest as unnecessarily harsh expectations of perfection that we project onto ourselves or those around us.
With Mercury in Virgo until September 2nd, we're likely to be feeling impelled to get down to the details and make concrete, logical plans for putting our plans into action. Thinking is likely to take a much more rational and analytical tone for the rest of this month. You can utilize this transit productively by getting reorganized in any area, cleaning, focusing on physical/emotional/spiritual health and wellness, create detailed plans on how you’d like to accomplish short and long-term goals, etc. There may be a tendency to overanalyze situations or get caught up in minute details; mindfulness is key, and pulling back to take a “Big Picture” view of situations if you find yourself getting mired in details can be very helpful!
The moon is in Taurus through tomorrow morning - a sign known for its love of sensuality and all the pleasures of life - but is equally as known for its pragmatism and down-to-earth approach in accomplishing goals. With Mars moving into a tighter conjunct with Saturn - both planets being in the deep and tenacious sign of Scorpio - the current energies bode very well for giving us the sustained drive and grounded, methodical approach to make hay on our visions!
