0° Virgo 22’
2:06 AM ET / 11:06 PM PT

August 23, 2025 — On Saturday, a New Moon forms at 0° Virgo, the apex of the sign. It also falls at the point of a Yod, placing us at a karmic crossroads that demands clarity, humility, discernment, and a return to self-care. In the wake of a wild Leo season—with egos run amok and our shadows up for reckoning—Virgo’s quiet grace is a welcome contrast. We’re applying our intentionality and devotion to the details of our lives, to the everyday routines that keep us healthy and anchored.

Forming a square to Uranus in Gemini, Virgo’s pragmatism is especially important. The ground is shaking beneath us, catapulting us onto new trajectories and timelines in a two-year shift that has only just begun. In the throes of uncertainty, this New Moon is helping us discover the workability within any storm—pushing us to find logic, clarity, and order within the chaos of great change.

The Yod reminds us that we cannot cling to rigid patterns. Blessings are pouring into us, but they unlock only through surrender and gentle discipline—physically, spiritually, and emotionally. At the same time, Venus squaring Chiron touches our deepest wounds, asking us to meet them with honesty and respect, both within ourselves and with one another. If we’ve been gripping ego or control, this lunation redirects us toward humility and sincerity.

Whatever has felt ruptured or in upheaval now asks to be rewoven. Virgo is the healer who honors the sacredness of small acts, who understands the importance of each thread in creating the whole tapestry. The alchemy of precision and service, earnestness and self-respect, is moving through us now as we embody the power of daily practice, honesty, and genuine love. We can slow down, return to the basics, and breathe a sigh of relief as Virgo guides us back toward grace, simplicity, and sweetness.

VIRGO NEW moon ASPIRATION

On this Virgo New Moon, may we surrender ego for humility. May we find clarity within the chaos, and begin again with devotion, sincerity, and care.
