Virgo

Mid-January, the Moon Nodes move into Pisces/Virgo, focusing attention on our collective karmic debts to ourselves and the planet and the spiritual desire to make things right through service to the whole.  For Virgos, this means completing the work you've been doing to unravel relationship conundrums. Avoid looking with an over-analytical, perfectionist and critical eye on what your loved ones are feeling, thinking and doing.  Instead, celebrate the precious soul connections that have lasted through lifetimes.  Old wounds associated with the sharing of resources, sexual connections and events surrounding death surface and demand purification and healing. The eclipses in March and September provide opportunities for the emotional release of any negative patterns, opening space for renewed positive connections.  Expansive Jupiter will be gracing your 10th and 11th solar houses in 2025, and Uranus will move into your 10th in July.  Unusual vocational offers may surprise.   All you have been learning about the intricacies of good communication will serve you in good stead.  Mercury's retrograde periods in March, July/August and November relieve the busyness of multitasking. They provide calm times for deeper reflection on the way forward in the various aspects of your life (intimate and family relationships, vocational calling, friendship and group associations).

VIRGO Forecast for 2024
Mercury begins the year retrograde in your house of home base roots, family and ancestral connections. Pallas Athene also spends much time in this house and Mercury's 3rd house of communication throughout the year. By making the most of Mercury's meditative retrogrades and Athene's wise guidance, you will gain much understanding of the patterns of your ancestral and childhood programming. Vesta, in your 10th house for the year's first half, emphasises purity of purpose in whatever you see as your vocational calling, while Jupiter adds many opportunities to lead and expand whatever you are working on. With Saturn in your house of relationships, Juno's and then Vesta's presence in your place of identity, you will be working to establish and maintain a balance between your needs and those of significant others. Mercury's third retrograde period over the Leo/Virgo cusp in August will allow you to reflect on this polarity. The Nodes and the eclipses are in your 8th and 2nd houses. To fulfil your potential, you will need to release past karmic patterns associated with values, self-esteem and the way you support yourself materially. The North Node of Destiny invites a quantum shift from dominator power struggles to authentic self-empowerment.
