All weekend long, the earthy Virgo Moon makes its presence known. Are you feeling ruminative? Trying to make sense of it all? Friday night’s Mercury-ruled Virgo Moon squares the Sun in fiery Sagittarius, so grab a broom, a book, or some boots with grippy soles. The collective mood is itchy with a mystery, and it’s up to you to find out what you’re itchy for, and why.
For one thing, Sagittarius Mercury stations retrograde after the weekend, so we’re deep it its retrograde shadow right now. Its motion is slow, but it heads into square with retro Neptune in Pisces — an aspect it won’t perfect this year. Have you heard of “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”?
Mercury-Neptune is illusion, psychic sensation, and deception. In the case of deception, whether you’re deceived or the deceiver, it’s impossible to gauge the consequences completely. So beware. It’s not always safe or advantageous to tell the truth, but it’s important now to at least consider the ramifications, whatever your motivation. In any case, you don’t know what you don’t know. Not now, anyway.
Capricorn Venus heads into square with retro Chiron in Aries and trine to retro Uranus in Taurus next, so the prize is attached to a lesson (and an upgrade). If you cry wolf now, the lesson might be more trouble than treat. So call in the clear-seeing side of Mercury-Neptune and imagine the ideal path.
As far as the tone this weekend goes, we’re thirsty for some sweet, sweet banter. Spin a fairy story or whisper a lyrically enchanting spell, and you’ll spark a charm for sure.
If at any point you’re “not feeling it”, go with the collective Virgo gut and (Neptune) disappear.
Saturday night, the Virgo Moon opposes Pisces Saturn and trines Capricorn Venus before going on to square retro Jupiter in Gemini overnight. Sweet nothings feel like sweet somethings. Make sure that charm you’re sparking has substance. Take it slow and calm and seduction is a sure thing. I can’t imagine a better sky to spark to if you’re serious about getting somewhere and making it last. That late night mood is a LOT, but it also creates more chances and options.
Sunday morning, the Moon-Jupiter square perfects, then the Virgo Moon squares Mercury. Out of the frying pan and into the fire? It’s a possibility. Still, the Virgo Moon is formidable, so use this friction to burn through whatever issues present. If there’s a problem, face it and figure it out; don’t run away from a hard talk. Sometimes these knots just LOOK ugly and once undone, spawn great relief.
The Virgo Moon goes on to trine retro Uranus and oppose retro Neptune. If you’ve been making use of your senses this weekend, you’ve picked up on a lot of juicy details. Take those details, murmurs, and insights and rearrange them till they inspire something unexpected or novel. It’s exciting, a rush! Imagination is packed with extra sparkles right now, so let yourself drift into a creative moment. Invite a co-conspirator if you dare.
All weekend, the Sun in Sagittarius heads into trine with Mars in Sun-ruled Leo. An action adventure is the mode of both day and night, and the drama on the table is FUN. The Virgo Moon keeps it from straying too far from whimsical and pulls things back from the edge of mayhem. It’s just right. Keep your mind on the nature and reason of truthfulness, and try not to overshare. If you’re unsure of facts, put on your boots and go find out. If you share your life with kids, this is the perfect weekend for a fairy hunt.
