On Monday, the Sun joins Venus, Mercury, Jupiter and the North Node in detail oriented Virgo.
We are all burning Virgo fuel now! I've been talking about Virgo and our need to prioritize - our health, service to others, small steps, what is right in front of us, the details, quality - since 1. our North Node went into Virgo and it became our collective way forward and 2. Jupiter went into Virgo and it became our way to expand. Little was the new big this year. We are familiar with it. This continues with an even stronger emphasis now.
With a solar eclipse in Virgo on September 1st we can expect major changes for Virgos and our Virgo natal houses.
The shadow of Virgo is self-criticism (and criticism of everyone and everything) and self doubt - setting too high a standard. Perfectionism. Nothing is ever good enough and often things don't get finished so they don't have to be judged and come up short. Since Virgo energy is here to learn to love themselves unconditionally, we are pretty much guaranteed to miss something.
Learning when good enough is good enough is our job now. This is an excellent time to put our energy (Sun) into Virgo tasks like organizing, sorting, thinking, managing.
The key to getting the most from any Virgo season is focusing our energy in one direction and not getting distracted with all the shiny objects that are outside our control.
With Virgo's ruling planet Mercury about to go retrograde - BACK UP YOUR FILES - we will have extra time to cross our t's and dot our i's with whatever we are about to have in front of us.
The Moon is void all day Monday (working hours) so if you play hookey (or make a big presentation) nothing will come of it. Sleep in. :)
On Tuesday, the Moon in Taurus has us focused on our income, our possessions. There will be adjustments with legal themes or something related to educational, travel, media, marketing, wedding or religion as Mars and Saturn (in Sagittarius) approach their conjunction.
I am going to write the rest of this post tonight - just wanted to get Monday out there. I am sick again -ugh and need a clearer head to write the rest of the week! Big changes ahead! Going back to bed for a bit. xo all

Just finished up the Junk Refunk show and it was 100+ outside, who knows how hot on that pavement. The Shave Ice guy made a killing. I can't believe he didn't run out of ice! But we survived and lived to tell about it. :) I'm so glad it's over now.
Sunday I was exhausted in the morning, but then felt a burst of energy and creativity in the afternoon, and wondered if something had shifted during that time. I jotted down lots of ideas for things I can anticipate working on, and cleaned up my little craft room, the best it's been in who knows how long! I am ready to begin again.
Hope you feel better soon Cat, and I hope I'll have more time to visit and comment now that summer is almost over and things are a bit more relaxed... only in time for the holidays to come and things to get busy again! :)
xoxo!
Wishing you well again. xo
