The sun enters Virgo This week (August 22, 2025, 1:34 pm PDT, until September 22, 22), followed by the first of the two Virgo new moons. It’s a sign of harvest when we start to see the results we grow, how to take care of its results and how the world is kind or roughly treated to it. The last point is important, because Virgos can lean towards perfectionism and blame themselves on things that do not reach this mark.
But while our efforts are crucial, they are not everything. We can do all the “right” things, but the seeds we plant may not be feasible in the first place. Along the way, the weather may disagree with us and the machinery we use may fail.
The message for Virgo is not that we have to do everything perfectly, but that we should do our best. This is a sign of work, so if we choose a job that will give our strengths, it is a matter of our best efforts. This is a sign of service; are you giving others and seeking gains for yourself? It’s a sign of health, and even if you ignore your body in an important way, it’s never too late to start being cautious about it. This is the logo of our little animals; their coats are shiny, are they playing and happy?
Bring love and care to your daily life. Don’t worry about doing things. Do your best.

This week’s new moon (August 22, 2025, 11:07 PM PDT, 0º23′ Virgo) is the first of two new moons in Virgo. (The second one is the solar eclipse for Virgo on September 21.)
The symbol of Virgo is a self-sufficient woman who doesn’t need anyone else to make her whole. Virgo belongs to you, you have completed it. As Virgo actress Greta Garbo said, “I want to be even less”, you are happiest when it comes to your own equipment in the things related to the Virgo houses in the charts. Here you will be attracted by the happy work of Virgo – solve problems, figure out things and make things work.
It’s also fun, people look at your area of life with a respectful awe — probably because you don’t seem to need or care about anyone’s approval. In this part of your life, you don’t need anybody else’s transcript. You are rating on a completely different (and possibly more penalized) scale.
As we go to extremes, we linger on the bad side of the orbit of Vergoland, either starving to death or overly obsessed with our love of loneliness. Once the guilty voice in your mind starts scolding you for “should” do something, you will be in trouble except spending time in some happy, quiet pursuit. But when the sad voice in your mind begs you not to join humans because there is so much interaction with others, you can also get stuck.
Virgo is a sign of adjustment and compromise, and its symbolic meaning contains the basic fact: it is completely unreasonable to put things exactly the way we want them to be, nor is it a healthy goal, nor does it make us happy. Even if one is a person who pursues our Virgo goals with confidence in the closed cocoon, we cannot be happy forever. Human beings are social creatures, and from time to time we must rub shoulders with our fellow citizens and adapt to the world.
compromise
This new moon is strongly affected Sun and Moon Kunsenx Saturn (August 23, 2025, PDT at 4:04 am) and Neptune in Aries (August 24, 2025, pdt at 3:58 am) and Pluto in Aquarius (August 24, 2025, 1:06 pm). In the Quincunx aspect (about 150 degrees), planets usually have signs that do not actually have common ground. They are not in the same or even compatible elements, nor are they the same way.
In Quincunx, planets must seek compromise. Virgo is perfect for adjustment, but its practicality, attention to detail and attention to present and present tend to oppose Aries’ impulse for the future and Aquarius’ attention.
The Sun says this is a shining time for Virgo, so don’t compromise so much that you lose the service and excellence tracking of this new moon.
Back of the closet
Every now and then, we are a little bored with ourselves – we are tired of face to face every day, our same old quirks and hanging up, the same face looking back at our mirror. I’m not talking about a full-scale crisis. In this case, no one left his spouse and bought a red convertible. When you start another work week, it’s more like one of those clumsy Monday mornings and hopefully anywhere else to do something completely different.
The alarm sounded. You shower, drink morning coffee, brush your teeth, and rub your mats into the closet to look for clothes you wear. gh – You hate all the clothes! Or rather…. Your hands wander over a weird little number behind the closet. You bought it on a whim a few years ago and immediately regret it. A little strange, a strange color, bold. This isn’t what you normally do – it’s definitely perfect. You wear it, check the reflection in the mirror, and smile. You then head to your foot to work with extra springs.
Uranus’s Sun Square (August 24, 2025, 12:15 AM PDT, February 3, 2023, 6:50 PM, PST, 1°23′ Virgo and Gemini) Flashing. Its impact lasts no more than one or two days. But it’s enough to make people bored, dissatisfied and strong desire to be someone else, or at least a different version of ourselves. What’s behind the closet? Use this day to change things and reinvent your own things.
