Welcome to 📊 Virgo Season 📊
Virgo Season starts on August 22nd and runs through September 22nd. We entered into some of the more chaotic energy of the year during Leo season and I'd like to say that Virgo season brings in a calmer vibe...but that's not exactly the case.
Leo season was largely about discernment and making choices, decisions or even pivots in order to set yourself up for long term success. The transition from Leo to Virgo is about moving from bold, outward expression and reacting to the changes around you and moving towards thoughtful, practical action.
Use this time to focus on the details, make improvements, and get organized for the months ahead. There are more shakeups coming, including the introduction of a new eclipse series, and the more you use this season to get your ducks in a row, the better you'll be set up for what's to come.
