Virgo New Moon with Solar Eclipse – September 21, 2025
Phew! Eclipse season has been a doozy this round. The good news is that we’re coming to the finalization of this season, and it’s time to get super-focused on how we’re moving forward through the rest of the year and into 2026.
So, let’s break this down a bit: Virgo rules the digestive system, so the big theme for the Virgo New Moon is “What is your gut telling you?” Because this New Moon is landing right at the very end of Virgo (29 degrees), it’s a hugely potent time for making significant, life-changing moves. The end of the sign is a critical degree, and the energy is heightened to lead you to closure and transformation. The next chapter in your life is being decided now!
If that sounds intimidating, remember that YOU are the one making these decisions, by the intentions you set and the actions you’ve been taking throughout this eclipse season. Now’s the time to “digest” what you’ve learned and experienced over the past couple of weeks, six months, and year. What’s good for you? What’s bad? What can you compost to feed other parts of your mind/body/soul?
Our Lunar Eclipse earlier this month was a North Node Eclipse, so this Solar Eclipse is a South Node Eclipse. If you remember, the North Node was the head of the dragon, and all about ambition, quick action, and devouring. This South Node Eclipse is about emptying – much like a dragon’s backside would eliminate things, if you get my drift.
As we move into this New Moon, make sure you rest, stay hydrated, and eat well. This is a time to take care of yourself because you are releasing a ton of garbage and spiritual junk right now. Your biggest goal for this New Moon should be supporting yourself in the easiest way possible. It’s a big “refresh” button for your higher good, but that can take a toll on you, so take care of yourself and follow the simplest paths before you.
Virgo is also encouraging us to work with what’s present and only with what’s our responsibility. It gets easy to carry other people’s baggage through life, and this is your call to set it down. Examine what remains and then ask yourself if all these bags truly are yours or if you’ve inherited them from your family or past. Put that baggage down too!
Your mantra should be, “What’s my business?” and focus on that. If it’s not your drama, you don’t have to engage.
This eclipse opposes Saturn exactly, so it’s supporting this vibe of discipline, focus, and discernment, so we can focus on our work. Remember, eclipse season is about what goes on behind the scenes. We’re working in the shadows and under cover. You don’t have to share anything with anyone, and you certainly don’t need to share your practice or spells online right now. Do so only in your trusted communities. Remember, your work is not for entertainment or public consumption. This is especially true for this eclipse.
Here’s Your Virgo New Moon Horoscope:
Aries: Set your individualistic nature aside and collaborate with others. You’re much better at navigating relationships than you give yourself credit for, and you need others’ support as much as the rest of us.
Taurus: It’s time to be honest with yourself about the health and wellness of your relationships – romantic and otherwise. What do you receive in each of your important relationships? Is that enough? Are you giving too much? Balance will support you moving forward.
Gemini: Get back to work if you’ve been coasting through this season. Saturn will help you make big moves in your career or the side hustle you’ve been thinking of. It’s also the perfect time to have deeper conversations with the children in your life, whether they’re your kids or niblings.
Cancer: This New Moon is inviting you to reassess the balance between family and career. Virgo will help you with any time management issues you’ve had lately. Get ready to feel the appreciation and love you’re due from your loved ones. This is a new era of supported, heart-centered living.
Leo: Document all your new ideas! Brainstorming energy this week will help you plan out the next 6-12 months. Use Virgo’s energy to help you get organized on your passions, hobbies, and career, as you may feel a little distracted and pulled in various directions. Lean into what feels right.
Virgo: You’ve been working on your honest conversations, and they’re going to be a lot easier with this New Moon. Set practical intentions with the New Moon and think about the entire year ahead as you do. Healing is coming your way, too, especially in your finances.
Libra: Get introspective and ask yourself what’s been holding you back. It’s about to be your season, so now’s the perfect time to streamline your energy output and creative pursuits. Which ones will you continue, and which ones will you release?
Scorpio: Focus your energy on the important people in your life and the supportive, soul connection friends. Don’t be surprised if someone from your past pops up (a la Mercury Retrograde!) and it’s an opportunity to either patch things up or close the chapter once and for all.
Sagittarius: Your professional life will be front-and-center during the New Moon, so set intentions around this part of your life. There’s a lot of change in store for you still. Don’t try to make any big decisions over the next couple of weeks, just feel out opportunities for collaboration and practical plans.
Capricorn: Pay attention to the mentors and teachers who appear in your life around the New Moon. Their appearances right now are written in the stars. Your personal philosophy and perspective have been shifting lately. This is a pivot point in your journey as you use the expansive energy to propel yourself into the next 12 months.
Aquarius: What path do you want to be on? You’ve put in a lot of hard work and it’s time to prune your energy expenditure to focus on your mission in this life. Document what you’ve learned over the past few years as you close out old patterns and identities. Get ready to stand on the front line of your own personal movement.
Pisces: Your heart is priceless, and this is a lesson you’ve been learning since Pisces season this year. The eclipse will bring balance to your relationships, which means you’ll get what you need from the relationship in return for the energy you’ve already put into it to make it work. Remember to honor your boundaries and you’ll be golden!
Happy Solar Eclipse, witches!
