The New Moon Solar Eclipse happens tonight at 2:41am EDT and 11:41pm PDT, in the sign of Virgo. This is a particularly auspicious new moon since Jupiter the “Santa Claus” of the Zodiac is also in Virgo and will be until September 9th of 2016.
The Virgo new moon places the emphasis on healing, spiritually as well as physically. Virgo rules gardening, herbs, healthy organic eating and also organization. It’d be a good time to clean out your kitchen, spice racks, refrigerator, and yes even the garage.
For you gardeners out there, weed that garden, making way for the new to grow between now and the full moon on September 27th, (which will be a lunar eclipse).
While you do this keep in mind the affirmation “I am cleaning out the closets of my mind, releasing what no longer serves who I am and who I am becoming; making room/way for all the good the Universe has ready for me.” (You can tweak it however you’d like).
Let’s go to the flip side of the Virgo coin, criticism. This is a time to look at things with compassion and allow the healing to flow. This also means criticism of self. Take off those self-sabotaging glasses and put on a pair of “I love myself” glasses. The whole world, including you, looks better when you’re wearing the second pair.
Light a yellow candle and don’t forget to do your new moon wish list, and new moon abundance check.
Gotta run,
Love & Blessings,
