Matrix of divine order and cosmic chaos,
planetary cycles seed and crest,
giving birth to what’s been repressed.
Heartache.
Ideals and dreams,
hunger and longing
might hold us back – or
give birth to compassion
and inspiration to serve.
Discerning mind.
Priorities, schedule, here and now.
Organize and assess
what needs to be done and how to do it.
(hmm… anyone stressed?)
Innovation or sheer rebellion.
Breaking free to a broader vision of possibility.
Impatience with the details of daily life.
The challenge is to develop awareness
and break free of unconscious compulsion.
To know when to forge ahead and when to detach.
There is no singular solution.
There is no key that fits all locks.
Each one of us has a personal puzzle to solve,
an original design to integrate,
a unique door to walk through.
Virgo New Moon focuses on skillful synthesis.
Radical housekeeping,
organization of workplace,
essential health practices.
Practical, simple…
continually bringing perfection into the continual mess.
“But life at its best is a creative synthesis of opposites in fruitful harmony.” Martin Luther King, Jr.
Dark moon passage leads to
the Equinox threshold.
Find equanimity. Make peace.
Realize the details,
observe wholeness.
Unravel bureaucracy’s knots,
discern nature’s design.
Practice patience,
refine perception.
Renew devotion to your purpose,
this is your Sacred Life.

Healing Transformation
The dreamy lens of Mercury opposite Neptune arrives with images, ideals and infinite visions to lift wings of inspiration or tempt illusions of escape. Earthy Virgo aligns skills and experience to facilitate dreams and make a tangible difference in the world. Plant your new moon seeds with sincerity for integration and wholeness. The new moon lands opposite Chiron, emphasizing the polarity of the recent Full Moon in Pisces – read here. Painful underpinnings are laid bare. The pathway of healing includes tenderness, compassion and forgiveness.
Longer Cycles of Volatile & Rapid Change
September 27: The First Quarter Moon, midway between new and full, coincides with Jupiter opposite Uranus (the final of three exact aspects of the cycle since December 27, 2016 & March 7, 2017).
September 28: Pluto direct. The intensity and upheaval of transformation. Life is not going to get simpler anytime soon. So, make the most of this New Moon, complicated as it is. Find the simple. Gather all your resources for skillful synthesis. Follow your instincts towards healing and wholeness to carry you you through.
“If you will stay close to nature, to its simplicity, to the small things hardly noticeable, those things can unexpectedly become great and immeasurable.” Rainer Maria Rilke
Realize you can’t figure it all out.
Confusion and disorientation has a voice and needs to be heard. What’s beneath uncertainty?
Practicality and efficiency have a voice and need a place to land.
Listen to the message of simplicity – what is it saying to you?
What attitudes, things or routines are breaking down and need to be discarded or repaired?
What are the essential practices and priorities in my life?
