We took a closer look at all you need to know about Virgo season, including the ways in
which you can harness the energy of this time of year, and use it to your full advantage.
What Is The Virgo Season?
Virgo season occurs when the sun enters the Virgo constellation in the sky – in other words, the sun is literally entering the sign of Virgo.
This occurs from, August 23rd to September 22nd each year, and individuals who are born within this window will be given the star sign of Virgo, and tend to feel powerful, illuminated, and intuitive when the sun is in their sign,
That is not to say, however, that only Virgos are impacted by Virgo season – each of us is impacted and affected by the turn of the Wheel of the Year, and the different constellations all have their own power and significance.
Whenever the sun is in a particular sign, it acts as an illuminator or spotlight, causing all the qualities and influences associated with the sign to step out into the light, and we then spend the season emulating and being impacted by the key traits of that particular sign, as well as focus more clearly and readily on the key areas of life that are typically impacted by that sign.
What Are The Main Elements Of Virgo Season?
So, just why is Virgo season so significant, and what are the main elements of this time of year? Some of the main factors and unique quirks include:
Connections With The Body
Virgo is an Earth sign, and the main focus of this time of year is coming back down to Earth to ground yourself and your energy, and the period is typically most closely associated with issues and matters affecting the body.
The season comes after the fiery, wild energy of Leo season, and offers a chance to slow down and reflect – and this includes taking the chance to reconnect with the physical self, and take care of its needs and desires.
It’s also a good time to get back in touch with your inner child and remember how much fun you used to have playing outside, running through fields, climbing trees, and exploring nature.
Virgo season focuses on health, well-being, and self-love – this is a time to make sure that you are respecting your body and treating it in the way it deserves, with movement that feels good, nourishing, healthy foods, getting plenty of rest and sleep, and taking care of any niggles or health issues that you have been ignoring over the summer months.
Enjoy the opportunity to really slow down and reconnect with your body, and feel yourself start to ground down as the wheel turns towards the colder months.
Intuition And Self-Care
The second half of the year is often associated with intuition and self-care, and Virgo season provides a great opportunity for you to tune in to your intuition, and listen to your inner voice.
You may find yourself feeling drawn towards new projects and ideas, and looking to make
changes in your life – whether these are big or small, they’re all opportunities to connect with your inner wisdom and tap into the potential of your true self.
Get Your Life In Order
Virgo season is all about honing in on the details and taking care of the small things to allow your grinder plans to come to fruition.
If you have been neglecting your home and personal space over the summer, now is the perfect time to clean up, declutter, organize, and put things away.
If you haven’t done so already, now is the ideal time to set aside some time every week to do a deep cleaning of your house, and clear out the clutter and messes that have built up over the past few months.
This is also a great time to think about your finances and look at where you can save money, cut costs, and improve your financial situation.
This could be anything from cutting back on unnecessary expenses like coffee shops, going out for lunch instead of eating at home, or even making a budget and sticking to it.
It’s also a good idea to think about your relationships, and what you want them to mean to you. Are there people who need to change their behavior around you? Do you need to let go of old friendships that no longer serve you?
Or maybe you just need to spend more quality time with those closest to you? Whatever your priorities are, this is a great time to work on them.
Open The Channels Of Communication
Virgo is ruled by the planet Mercury, and this is a planet that is all about communication. Virgo season, therefore, is all about opening up channels of communication and allowing others to share their thoughts, feelings, and opinions with you.
Whether it’s talking to friends, family members, colleagues, or partners, this is a great opportunity to open up and communicate honestly and openly with others.
If you’ve been keeping quiet over the summer, now might be the best time to speak up and express yourself. There are many ways to do this – including the written word.
Let your creativity flow and write letters, emails, journal entries, poems, stories, or whatever you feel inspired to create. It doesn’t matter if it’s something you post online, or send off to someone else; it’s important to get your thoughts and feelings out into the world.
This can be an amazing way to communicate your deepest desires, fears, hopes, and dreams. It’s also a wonderful way to reconnect with your creative side and give yourself permission to explore your imagination and expand your mind.
Connect With Nature
Virgo is closely associated with nature, and it is no secret that the natural world is one of the most powerful tools we have for healing ourselves.
When we take time to connect with nature, we can access our own innate power and strength, and learn how to channel these energies into our lives.
There are countless ways to connect with nature during Virgo season.
You could meditate outside, walk barefoot through the grass, or simply sit quietly in a park and watch the clouds drift across the sky; all of these activities will help you to ground yourself and connect with the earth.
You could also try doing some gardening, or planting seeds in pots, which will encourage you to grow as well as nourish the environment.
Whatever you choose to do, make sure you’re fully present with nature and don’t rush through it. Take time to enjoy the sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and textures of the natural world.
And when you’re ready, return to the city and continue to use your energy wisely.
Final Thoughts
The start of Virgo means a change in energy and is a perfect time for introspection, reflection, and self-love. By following our top tips above, you can ensure that you’re able to harness the positive aspects of this new energy and bring balance back into your life.
