Full Moon in Virgo — the article

The next Full Moon will be “exact” on Feb. 27th, at 3:17am EST in almost 9 degrees of Virgo — and by then, we are halfway through the Lunar cycle that started on Feb. 11th.

Take a look at the New Moon Intentions you set around Feb. 11th, and ask yourself: How far have I come with those Intentions? If I’m not where I’d like to be with them, what new course might bring me closer to my goals?

A Full Moon is always an opposition between the Moon and the Sun; during these oppositions, we seek balance, alignment and integration around two perspectives that seem like polar opposites. Very often, we experience this through our interactions with others, and since these interactions are also the pathway to resolution, relationships of all kinds are highlighted during Full Moons.

In this case, the Moon in Virgo opposes the Sun in Pisces. Virgo seeks personal and practical wholeness, while Pisces reminds us of a transcendent wholeness — our divinity and interconnectedness with all of life.

Virgo benefits from apprenticeship, whereas Pisces learns to trust inner guidance above all else — when balanced, we are able to discern without judgment, serve without obligation, and love all of creation, including ourselves.

Virgo analyzes, Pisces feels: We are invited to discern what’s real, so we can make healthier choices.

To find the balance between Virgo and Pisces, ask yourself…

To find the balance between Virgo and Pisces, ask yourself: Where do I need to be more selective? More accepting? What if my inner knowingness could inform practical choices? What if “choosing” was already (and always) in alignment with divine timing?

What results might I get in my daily life if I dissolved my fears, judgments, and painful memories? Even if I could only do that as best as I can? What might a daily practice of self-forgiveness, acceptance, and learning to love myself do for me? What else might bring more inner peace?

All Full Moons bring awareness to a polarity and this illuminates the shadow sides of both signs:

Virgo‘s shadow side is “Judgement”; this creates separation from others and a split within ourselves, closing our heart and limiting our ability to learn. It keeps us stuck in duality, defending our position or attacking others. it’s what is showing up when we label things as “good or bad”, rather than seeing them in terms of “useful or unproductive”.

Drawing on the higher vibrations of Pisces helps us likewise connect with the higher vibration of Virgo… Pisces‘s best qualities are compassion, intuitiveness, open-heartedness, inspirational creativity and imagination; at its best, Pisces understands that we are all souls in various states of development, doing the best we can.

The shadow side of Pisces is ambiguity, escapism, helplessness or victimization, and poor or missing boundaries. And just as the converse is true, the best qualities of Virgo can move us back into the higher vibration of Pisces — qualities like the ability to choose wisely and to objectively discern what works and what doesn’t.

When both sides are well-integrated, we possess acuity of mind, united with the wisdom of our heart and the guidance of our intuition.

Ask yourself: What single step could I take right here and now, if I were setting out to employ 5% more self-compassion, unconditional love, and selfless service?

What if there were synergies between my emotional, intuitive understanding, and my rational, scientific understanding? Do I really have to choose between scientific facts & intuitive knowingness? What if I could have both?

For the next two weeks, Virgo asks us to become aware of the clutter that is distracting us from our priorities, so ask yourself: What in my current daily life is nourishing? And what might be toxic? Where are things piling up? How can I make healthier choices?

Let’s talk about what’s important in this particular Full Moon chart:

The Moon in Virgo trines Uranus in Taurus; quincunxes Chiron in Aries & Saturn in Aquarius (creating a Yod with the Moon as the Focal point); and opposes the Sun/Venus alignment in Pisces. Let’s unwrap all of that:

The Trine takes place in Virgo and Taurus, which are both Earth signs, so it’s easier to connect with our body and what we value, while an increased ability to discern “what’s what” can support us, should we be looking to make some changes in our physical world that further our physical, emotional, and mental well-being (in other words: wholeness).

This combo thus creates a “mutual support system” when it comes to manifesting something real that fits with our newfound values. It provides not only a flow of practical approaches, but also a wonderful opportunity to create more freedom in our current experience, along with an ability to do things differently and better.

Ask yourself: How could attention to detail help me be more discerning about how I connect to my body? What might open up if I implemented health routines or other systems that support my physical, emotional, and mental well-being?

What works for me in my daily routines? What doesn’t? How might flexibility help me implement new daily routines?

Now let’s talk about the Yod that involves Saturn & Chiron, making the Moon in Virgo the Focal point: we are asked to become more aware of our need for improved health systems and routines. We are invited to distinguish the essential from the extraneous — i.e. to simplify and improve our relationship to health, wholeness, and well-being.

Rather than wasting time or energy on self-deprecation or disparagement of others, we are invited to take a closer look at what works and what doesn’t, both individually and collectively.

For the next two weeks, ask yourself: What might change for me if I approached everything from a neutral place, with no judgment, “right or wrong”, personal opinions? What if I simply observed, like a scientist? As if it was the first time I had ever laid eyes on what I am observing?

What if I allowed “the observed” to be exactly what it is, without needing to change it? Maybe even giving it some space?

We are also invited to acknowledge the more denser vibration of this Moon placement.

Ask yourself: Could I allow myself to notice when I am defending, justifying, shaming, or judging myself or others? Am I simply staying busy to avoid feeling unworthy? What if “being good” was not the goal? What if “becoming whole” was? What would that look like?

Could I bring 5% more awareness towards my physical and mental well-being? How could I be of service to others while taking care of my own emotional well-being? What physical (or mental) symptoms am I experiencing that need my attention and love? What does “progress not perfection” look like for me?

The Moon’s opposition to the Sun/Venus alignment in Pisces supports this Yod, which is asking us to bring more awareness for our interconnectedness with others, to our daily routines, along with a healthy balance between head and heart, science and intuition, discernment and compassion.

Ask yourself: Could I allow myself to release my fears and bless everyone I come into contact with? Could I lower my worry level 5% every day? Is it at least possible that this would strengthen my immunity — and therefore my physical and mental health? Is it at least possible that this would also enhance my vibrational energy body?

If you are experiencing moments of loneliness, helplessness or separation, ask yourself this: If I temporarily set aside memory, and just for the moment stayed out of concepts and imaginary futures — just looking here and now in this moment, can I find the one that is truly alone? Can I find the one that is helpless? That is separate?

What if connecting to my heart and higher Self could protect me? What if that connection could empower me to create a future that I truly want to “live into”? One in which I thrive? One in which everyone around me does too?

Mercury (the ruler of Virgo) is still in Aquarius (moving through its post-Shadow phase), and is sandwiched between Jupiter and Saturn.

This makes for quite a “heady” experience — it’s all about thinking big and innovating. This connection strengthens our ability to make realistic decisions concerning our need for progress and collaboration. We are more able to demonstrate integrity and maturity when planning anything long-term.

Ask yourself: What are my expectations or attitudes towards the collective experience? What new vantage point might show me how to realistically implement my vision for myself and “my people”?

As Mercury will no longer be Retrograde from Feb. 20th onwards, all planets will be moving in direct motion until April 27th, signaling that we have almost 9 weeks to make some major moves forward in our lives.

Ask yourself: What steps (whether large or small) might move me forward on my evolutionary path? How might a balance between “doing” and “being” support me on this path? What about “thinking” & “feeling”? Discernment & acceptance? Where might integrating head and heart lead me?

Just as they were two weeks ago, Saturn and Uranus are still squaring each other; since the New Moon they’ve had their first exact Square of the Year (on Feb. 17th). We will feel the effects of this Square until July 18th, and it is one of three this year (this one in February, then in June and December).

Both individually and collectively, this aspect asks us to stretch a little (or a lot) — best not to expect much of anything… except the unexpected!

As best as you can, embrace this, rather than fear it — see it as opening possibilities for tremendous progress, long-term changes in social interactions, more beneficial relationships to the planet and our physical and material worlds.

Saturn in Aquarius directs our focus towards realistic progress with technologies, inventions, and long-term visions for the collective. Uranus in Taurus, on the other hand, is prodding us to get back to the basics — to what really matters, is ecologically sustainable and indeed best for all living beings.

Given this, ask yourself: What does my body require before I can think about connecting with others? Where am I feeling a need for more spaciousness? What does my physical reality require before I can think about what to create for the future? Where do I need to “think outside of the box”?

We will also talk in more detail about the Saturn/Uranus Squares in Aquarius/Taurus — and how it all relates to your birth chart — in our upcoming Forum on Feb. 26th!

To sum it all up for this Full Moon:

If we can recognize that we are doing the best we can at any given time, and that on a spiritual level all “mistakes” are just “experiences”, we can learn about empathy — and our brain will re-pattern itself around compassion, rather than criticism.

Ask yourself: What if I stood in a place of allowing, curiosity, and creative spaciousness? Am I currently using my imagination to inspire myself or scare myself? Does my mind wander gravitate towards worst-case or best-case scenarios?

What might I notice if I were 5% more mindful of my inner dialog? What if I brought 5% more compassion to myself? Even to my inner critic? And even to my fearful mind chatter?

The moment you feel ungrounded or overwhelmed, ask yourself: Could I slow down and notice my breathing? What might breathing deeply and mindfully bring to this moment?

This Full Moon reminds us that our mindfulness and open heart make a difference, not only in our own life, but in the world. Rather than pushing, over-thinking, or giving up, I invite you to conduct small, simple experiments, inside of faith in universal support.

In that spirit…

For the next two weeks, ask yourself: Where is the balance point for intellect and intuition? Striving and surrender? What if far more is happening, both within each one of us and around the world, than meets the eye, ear, or news media?

What if the solutions were already available… just not widely distributed?

This Full Moon reminds us that peace comes from within, and can radiate from each one of us — we are what we choose to be in every “moment of now” — so choose wisely! Our future is birthed breath-by-breath, step-by-step, heart-by-heart.
