As summer sunlight begins to fade and the crisp fall air ushers in harvest season, we’re grounded in Virgo’s natural discernment and desire for improvement. The fruits of our labor are brought to the forefront, inviting us to evaluate what has flourished in our life and what may need readjusting. We’re encouraged to sift through ourselves, keeping what nourishes our spirit and releasing what no longer serves or highest good. The September New Moon in Virgo is a time to let go of self-doubt, self-criticism, and imposter syndrome as we step into our divine potential.
This is the season where our focus naturally shifts to reflection and making adjustments that will support our alignment through the colder, more introspective months. Now is the time to wrap up any undone projects or spiritual assignments we may have been putting off and ask ourselves, “How can I simplify my life and reduce any subtle chaos that overwhelms my mind or disturbs my nervous system?” It’s time to slow down, listen to the voice of our inner being, and acknowledge our limits. Have you been holding healthy boundaries, or are you pouring energy into something that no longer serves you? The more clarity and balance we find internally now, the more rest and graceful surrender we align with through Winter.
Whether you’re a ritual-ly person or just like to write down your intentions, I’m encouraging you to do your thing with clarity tonight. Then, dig deep this week, showing yourself and the universe why you want what you say you want, living that reality through your thoughts and actions.
Step 1) Clear OUT any old unhelpful patterns and thought processes,
Step 2) Bring IN habits and routines aligned with our best, most authentic selves.
My advice-
Take it slower this afternoon, calm your mind, and get clear on what it is that your soul desires most in this season and out of life in general. Don’t let past negative outcomes or experiences affect your vision. Hold your most feel-good vision for your life. As the sun sets and darkness sets in, get real with yourself about any limiting sh*t you might still be carrying around that blocks you from the reality you envision. As you become aware of the blocks through introspection and meditation, let them go with love and grace.
Everything you desire most is already here, happening right now. All it takes to realize it - to see it, touch it, taste it, smell it, etc. is a quantum shift (look into quantum mechanics and quantum leaping if you are skeptical).
What this means, as corny or “new age” as it may sound, is that you must align yourself in every way with the reality you desire. Universal laws and quantum science give us the secret code. They tell us that we have to deeply know that we are the creators of our own life simulation. We must believe it’s possible and that we are worthy of our desires. We must feel deep down that we are already living the desired reality. We must release any thought, subconscious belief or negative emotion that doesn’t align with the reality we want most for ourselves. Maybe most importantly, we have to feel genuine appreciation for all that we have in the now - today..where we sit - and make space with gratitude for all the blessings and healing we know are coming into our realities in the perceived future.
““Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.””
Although we do have all the answers already, the limitations of our human avatars and the stresses of modern day life tend to get in the way of us remembering those answers often. So, if you’re ever unsure of where to start with yourself, or how to get back on the right track.. examining and realigning your habits is usually the best place to focus. What do you habitually think, eat, say, do, etc.? Tweak your habits to support the highest version of yourself. If you do, and you stay consistent, you will see magical results in the Spring/Summer.
