As the cosmic and the mundane do the dance of life.

The Sun conjunct the Moon at 21 degrees Virgo on September 14 2023, at 9:39 PM EDT. This has marked the starting point of a new cycle…as yet still in process

Virgo’s virtuous simplicity and elegance imbues this new Moon with logical practical intentions. To serve, to follow through and to get things done.

Robert Hand speaks of “Virgo as the completed ego coming to terms simultaneously with the physical and the social universes as obstacles to which one must adapt, as frameworks for learning to be effective, and as realities that must be served.”
Virgo evolves through performing acts of service. To submit itself to the task at hand, whatever that may be, dedicated to doing it efficiently, effectively and well.

Virgo and it’s opposing sign Pisces are the zodiacal energies that are concerned with topics relating to work, health and service. Neptune, ruler of Pisces is in direct opposition to the Sun/Moon conjunction in Virgo.
Neptune, “symbolizes the truth and divinity perceived by mystics”, says Robert Hand.

Virgo, ruled by Mercury which stations Direct on September 15, 2023 has to do with the mind as it pertains to logic. Mercury as ruler of Virgo concerns itself with the ordinary everyday routines and its interrelationship with all things. The logistical orchestration of how things come together.

Whereas Neptune as the higher octave of Venus resides in the realm of the extraordinary. Neptune dissolves the boundaries and terrain of what we thought to be solid. Through Neptune we learn to surrender into the pure consciousness of being. By letting go and dropping down into oceans of Neptunian energy we are able to see the beauty and the Divine in all things.
This New Moon in Virgo is a time where we are able to surrender to divine consciousness while remaining connected to the visceral material world of everyday living. Thanks to the energy of this New Moon in Virgo in opposition to Neptune in Pisces.
The fascinating component of this lunation cycle marks a starting point that is drenched in trines providing us with a sweet easy flow in which to navigate these frequencies from. It’s a mellow manageability that gets played out in a more balanced harmonious way within the dynamic interchange of work and play. It’s an interesting new beginning moment graciously influenced by the power of these outer planet energies.

The Grand Earth Trine being constellated on September 14, 2023 will have a lasting effect. It is one that facilitates opening the door to our hearts, minds and souls which allows us to be open to new ideas that can lead to long sought after solutions.

This moment allows us to tap into the balanced ease that stimulates the exploration of new ideas. Ideas that are congruent and relevant to the moment we are living thru now.

Starting with the Sun/Moon conjunction forming a trine to Uranus and Jupiter in Taurus. Innovative expansion via our connection to earthbound realities such as food, the earth. the weather, money, finance and ethics. To bring conscious awareness to what our values are as they have bearing on the moment we are living in now.

The Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in Taurus then forms a trine to Pluto in Capricorn. Pluto…
“Pluto is the archetype of death and resurrection.” says Robert Hand. Resurrection is the operative word here. We are being asked, as it were, to trust the process of change and transformation that is a part of life. To be aware of how the ending of something is usually the beginning. Like the mystical Phoenix flying up out of its own ashes.

The ending serves as the proverbial page being turned. That brings us to the next part of our story. The part of the story where we can move towards the healing that fertilizes the ground for our renewal and resurrection.

Robert Hand goes on to say,”Pluto breaks down the old and outworn entities into their component parts, and then reassembles them into new being.” As indeed we shall be doing as we continue to move thru this moment in time.
This Grand Earth Trine is like a key being given to us that allows an opening of the door to the next steps in our lives. If we so choose.

Yet it is the perfect potent power of Pluto in Capricorn that does its part to complete this New Moon Grand Earth Trine.

At this auspicious new beginning moment these energies blend together to support our affirmations, goals and the creation of a healthy sustainable time for continuing on with our lives.
