The Full Moon brings to the surface our instinctual, emotional truth…like sea life drawn to the surface of the water by lunar light.
Look for the fruition of seeds planted 6 months ago on the VIRGO New Moon. What were you dreaming of, or planning for then? What is your harvest looking like now?
Refresh your memory, here’s the last New Moon VIRGO Post.
This Full Moon has some tense aspects as well as a super helpful one.
In short, you’re going to have to do some work to make the most of what it offers.
If you haven’t sorted, tidied and cleaned your way out of any uncomfortable feelings this Moon has bought up, I advise you to do that. As well as reflect and just feel your feelings.
Full Moons are always opposite the Sun. This month the Sun is conjunct Chiron the wounded healer and Mercury the planet of communication, all in watery, nebulous and deep feeling Pisces.
The Inner Critic
Chiron conjunct the Sun can mean wounding to the sense of self/ego as well as a person who is a sensitive healer due to their own wounding.
The Sun often represents our Paternal figure. The combo of Sun, Chiron, and Mercury can be read as wounding from the way our Paternal father communicated with us. Perhaps he wasn’t supportive, perhaps he was critical, or for some, he may have been downright nasty. In opposition to this month’s Full Moon, you may experience a reprise of your inner critic, someone triggering old wounds, or they could seem to float up out of the distant past. Either way, its time to heal.
The other side of Chiron Sun is that once you’re conscious of your own wounds you are able to go beyond the wall of self and ego, and recognize in others what you yourself have suffered from and learned to heal, and so heal others. Where are you currently at on this path?
The Sun combo and Moon are in a very tense ‘t-square’ with Saturn in Sagittarius, further emphasizing the paternal connection. The Mood is somber, burdened and there may be either too much responsibility placed on you or you may be struggling to shirk your responsibility which isn’t working either.
Plans or emotional connections may seem blocked, however just do the work, shoulder your load/or set boundaries if someone else isn’t and the work will get you through. Be patient and persistent, yet gentle on yourself.
An easy trine between the Full Moon and Pluto, the planet of regeneration, helps our feelings or some deep truth to surface in a way that helps us clear the path and cut dead wood in order to resurrect into authenticity.
To Heal it you’ve got to Feel it
Since our perception of not only our experience, but of ourselves is simply a collection of memories, and the brain has been proven to be ‘plastic’ (highly adaptive), I want to remind you that you are the master creator of your reality. There is so much reading on that subject matter, with reams of scientific proof crossing into the mystical. If you find yourself repeating situations, critical self-dialogue, feelings or a shitty version of reality or excuses and even you are sick of your own voice, you have a choice. Do the work, or keep complaining, blaming and finding excuses.
Virgo is an innately practical sign of service. Find the key to unchain yourself from any ‘story’ that doesn’t support the best possible you (and be honest about the hidden benefits of your story so far) so that you may be of service to yourself as well as others.
Often it’s the hardest work that reaps the most reward so I see this Full Moon as an opportunity for personal truth, cleansing, and clearing of the soul.
Much compassion beloved,
