VIRGO SEASON

Virgo Season 2025: Grounding, Refining, and Facing the Final Inspection

As we step out of the dazzling fire of Leo Season and into Virgo’s earthy terrain, the energy shifts dramatically. Virgo Season always asks us to pause, refine, heal, and put systems in place that support growth. But this year there is much more in store. We’re not only entering eclipse season but also experiencing Saturn’s final return to Pisces before it moves on for good. The themes of Virgo, clarity, order, and improvement, are being tested against Pisces’ pull toward release, surrender, and trust.

This is a season of checks and balances, a reality check disguised as an opportunity

Virgo Season Begins + The Virgo New Moon (August 23, 2025, AEST)

The Sun enters Virgo on August 23rd, and on the very same day, we welcome the New Moon in Virgo. Double Virgo energy makes this a powerful reset point. Virgo energy is often misunderstood—it’s not just about being critical or detail-obsessed. Virgo, is about, healing, and the sacredness of practical service. Virgo energy sees the world from the perspective of what can be improved? what can be purified? what seeds will we plant now that will support our future in a practical way?

This New Moon is ideal for:

• Starting new health or wellness routines

• Committing to rituals that bring structure and balance

• Decluttering physical, mental, and emotional spaces

• Beginning projects that require focus and precision

With eclipse season stirring in the background, this New Moon is about laying groundwork for long-term change.

Saturn’s Return to Pisces (September 1, 2025)

Saturn first dipped into Aries in mid-2025 but now backtracks into Pisces one last time. Think of this as a final inspection before moving out—a cosmic audit. Saturn asks: where have you avoided responsibility, where have you over-idealised, and where are boundaries dissolving in ways that no longer serve you?

This retrograde cycle lasts until November 27th, and Saturn remains in Pisces until February 2026. Over these next few months, we’ll be asked to release old patterns and confront illusions so that when Saturn re-enters Aries, we’re free to step into new beginnings without unnecessary baggage.

Mercury’s Movements: Virgo to Libra

On the 2^nd of September, Mercury enters Virgo. Here, the messenger sharpens its focus. Precision in speech, thought, and action is highlighted. This is a time for editing, analysis, and creating systems that work.

Then Mercury moves quite quickly into Libra on September 18^th and the conversations shift from analysis to diplomacy. Here, we look for balance in our relationships, practicing negotiation and fairness.

Mercury’s shifts mirror Virgo Season’s bigger theme: refine first, then integrate and balance.

Jupiter Trine the North Node (September 4, 2025)

A rare and supportive aspect. Jupiter in Cancer forms a harmonious trine to the North Node in Pisces. This is an incredible moment for learning, teaching, publishing, and sharing wisdom. It invites growth and expansion through ideas and ideals, especially those rooted in compassion and collective healing. It’s a green light for visionaries and creators.

Uranus Retrograde in Gemini (September 6, 2025 – February 3, 2026)

Uranus stations retrograde at 1° Gemini, turning its disruptive brilliance inward. This is a time to reflect on where we crave freedom and authenticity, and what inner blocks are holding us back. We can expect flashes of insight around communication, technology, and how we connect with others.

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (September 8, 2025)

This eclipse at 15° Pisces is the third in a powerful Virgo–Pisces eclipse cycle running from September 2024 to February 2027. Lunar eclipses are emotional culminations, and in Pisces, the themes are surrender, release, and spiritual trust.

This eclipse in Pisces can amplify feelings so we are encouraged to sit with the emotions, allow clarity to rise, and let go of what no longer aligns. This eclipse, tied to the Virgo New Moon, nudges us to balance order with flow, discipline with surrender.

If you have planets between 10°–20° of the mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces), you’ll feel this eclipse most strongly.

Venus Enters Virgo (September 19 – October 13, 2025)

Venus in Virgo is love expressed through service, practicality, and devotion. Here, romance looks like acts of care: running errands, offering help, showing up in tangible ways. It’s not showy—it’s useful, grounded, and intentional.

The Solar Eclipse in Virgo (September 22, 2025)

At 29° Virgo, this eclipse lands at the final degree of the sign, adding urgency and intensity. It’s the only Solar Eclipse in the Virgo–Pisces cycle (the rest are lunars), making it especially significant.

This eclipse challenges us to take responsibility for our health, habits, and routines. Opposite Saturn and Neptune, it forces us to balance practical work with emotional and spiritual needs. It harmonizes with Uranus and Pluto, reminding us that change is both possible and necessary.

This eclipse is about endings and beginnings—tying up loose ends while creating new structures that actually serve.

The Sun Enters Libra (September 23, 2025)

Virgo Season closes as the Sun shifts into Libra, marking the Equinox. After Virgo’s focus on refinement and detail, Libra brings balance, harmony, and relational awareness. It’s the cosmic exhale after Virgo’s diligent work.

The Essence of Virgo Season

Virgo reminds us that the divine lives in the details. This season isn’t about perfection for perfection’s sake. It’s about finding order that supports freedom, creating routines that sustain growth, and clearing clutter—both literal and energetic—so we can move forward lighter.

With eclipses shaking up the Virgo–Pisces axis and Saturn revisiting Pisces, the question becomes: What are you ready to release, and what are you ready to rebuild?

This season is a turning point, a sacred pause where the small steps you take now ripple out into big transformations.

Reflection for Virgo Season:

• Where are you clinging to control, and where can you soften into trust?

• What details matter most right now, and what can be released as noise?

• What seeds are you ready to plant that will genuinely support your growth?

Leo Season, Shine, from the inside out

This season isn’t just about being seen. It’s about remembering who you are, reconnecting with your creative fire, and allowing pride, not ego to guide you

There’s a lot of misunderstanding about Leo. It’s not just “look at me” energy, it’s “see me for who I really am” energy. And that’s a big difference.

Leo doesn’t need to be the centre of everything, but it does need to be the centre of something meaningful. Something that allows it to express, to create, to feel alive.

Leo is creative life force. It’s how the heart moves outward.It’s the poem you write. The story you share. The outfit you finally wear without shrinking.

But this Leo Season comes with a twist…We’re in the thick of retrograde energy: Mercury, Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, Chiron—all pulling us inward.

So if you’re feeling the creative fire but also a strange pause? That’s exactly right. This season isn’t about fast action. It’s about honest reflection. The kind that asks:

What still feels true?

Where have I dimmed my light?

What part of me is quietly asking to be reborn?

KEY DATES

July 25 – New Moon in Leo (2:32 AM AEST)

This is a potent lunation and not just because it’s in Leo.The Sun and Moon are in exact opposition to Pluto in Aquarius, which makes this a moment of creative and emotional transformation.

This New Moon may stir discomfort, vulnerability, or power dynamics, but it also offers a portal to personal empowerment.

Ask: Where have I been silencing my true expression? What needs to be seen and reclaimed?

Great for: setting heart-led intentions, redefining your relationship with visibility, and birthing bold creative projects (even if they’re still private).

July 31 – Venus enters Cancer + Chiron turns retrograde in Aries

The energy softens. Venus in Cancer brings emotional nourishment, tenderness, and a desire for deeper connection.Love languages shift from playful to protective. You may crave safe spaces, familiar people, and quiet intimacy.

At the same time, Chiron turns inward, activating old wounds around identity, assertion, and the right to exist as you are.This is a beautiful time to tend to yourself and others.

Ask: Where do I need to be softer with myself?

What am I learning about love and self-worth?

August 7 – Mars enters Libra

Mars, the planet of action, enters the sign of diplomacy and balance.This can bring a shift in how we pursue our goals: less direct, more collaborative.It’s a time for relational awareness. How are your actions affecting others? Are your desires aligned with fairness?

Ask: Am I asserting my needs clearly but with kindness?

Be mindful of passive-aggressive energy or indecision. Mars here teaches us the art of harmonious courage.

August 9 – Full Moon in Aquarius

This Full Moon brings clarity and culmination around what was seeded at the New Moon.Leo rules the individual heart; Aquarius, the collective soul. This lunation asks you to integrate both:

How can your self-expression serve others?

Where do you need community—and where do you need sovereignty?

Perfect for releasing limiting beliefs around “fitting in” and reclaiming your unique brilliance.

August 11 – Mercury turns direct in Leo

Mercury retrograde in Leo may have had you second-guessing your voice, visibility, or creative choices.As it stations direct, things begin to click.Your message becomes clearer. The story you want to tell starts to form. You might feel more confident expressing yourself or moving forward with a vision.

August 23 – Sun enters Virgo

We leave the fire and head into earth.Leo ignites the creative spark, Virgo begins the process of refinement.What started as inspiration now becomes a practice. What was a heart-led vision becomes something you can shape, hone, and offer.

Ask: What systems, routines, or structures will help me carry the magic forward?

This shift helps ground your energy and prepare for the next season of growth.Your voice returns. Say the thing.

So let me ask you…

Where are you ready to shine again?

What have you outgrown—and what’s asking to emerge now?

URANUS ENTERS GEMINI

When Uranus, the planet of disruption, liberation, and revolutionary insight, enters a new sign, we can feel it before we fully understand it. It might feel like a frequency change to start with, like whisper that travels through our nervous system, a restlessness in the air, a thought that won’t leave us alone. Having said that, Uranus is just taking a test drive in Gemini for now, where it dips its toe into Gemini until Novemeber when it then retrogrades back into Taurus until April 2026 when it shifts and stays in Gemini until 2032

So, on July 7, 2025, Uranus moves into Gemini for the first time since 1941

And this is a big shift for both the collective mind and for us personally, especially those of us who have planets in the mutable signs of Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces. In essence this is a fundamental rewiring of how we think, communicate, connect, learn, and share ideas. Uranus in Gemini will spend seven years reshaping the very fabric of thought and language, ushering in a new era of consciousness that asks one essential question:

Is the way I speak, think, and communicate true to who I am becoming?

Uranus's role is to accelerate awakening, sometimes gently, sometimes through a lightning strike that changes everything in an instant. It governs revolution, innovation, sudden change, and all things non-linear and unexpected. Uranus is the future crashing into the present. Internally it can feel like that genius idea that won’t let you sleep, it is a very buzzy energy that is asking us to awaken to the new, to change and to rebel against what’s been handed down to us without our consent.

Wherever Uranus travels in the zodiac, it brings disruption, It disrupts to liberate. To shake loose what’s become stale, rigid, or fear-based. To activate the next level of evolution.

And now, it turns its gaze toward Gemini.

Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the psychopomp, the translator between worlds. It governs language, perception, data, duality, and the stories we tell ourselves and each other to make sense of the world.

Gemini is not about absolutes, it’s about curiosity and complexity. It teaches us to hold more than one truth at once and to keep our curious minds open, to listen and to question. To speak not just to be heard, but to understand and connect.

When Uranus enters Gemini, we are collectively being asked to reimagine how we think, reclaim the power of our voice, and radically upgrade the quality of our communication, within ourselves, between each other, and across society.

Here’s what we can expect—and where the deeper invitations lie:

This is a time to break free from old scripts and conditioning. We’re being invited (sometimes forced) to speak from a place of deep authenticity, even if it’s uncomfortable. Expect revolutions around freedom of speech, the decentralisation of media, and the dismantling of echo chambers.

On a personal level we can ask ourselves- Where have I been silencing myself to keep others comfortable?

Gemini rules the nervous system, and Uranus can bring both brilliance and overstimulation. We may see a rise in nervous system awareness, somatic intelligence, and technologies that either support or overwhelm our mental and energetic bandwidth.

This transit will certainly invite new models of education and a rapid change in learning, AI-augmented thinking, and a rise in self-directed, cross-disciplinary knowledge. We will no longer be satisfied with rote information, we want synthesis, insight, and applied wisdom.

Words will matter more than ever. How we use them and what energy they carry. Whether we speak to connect or to divide. Uranus in Gemini asks us to remember that language creates reality.

Gemini also rules siblings, peer-to-peer relating, and cognitive diversity. We may see a much greater emphasis on neurodivergent communication, redefining intelligence, and honouring multiplicity in how people relate, think, and connect.

As with all planetary transits, there are shadows we’ll need to navigate. Gemini’s speed can become and feel a little manic and curiosity can spiral into chaos. The hunger for more information can disconnect us from inner knowing. We may be tempted to intellectualise our feelings, or mistake cleverness for wisdom.

And this era may also increasingly challenge our attention span, our capacity for nuance, and our tolerance for complexity in a world that often demands certainty.

Which is why this transit isn’t about mastering more information. It’s about mastering presence in a world full of noise.

So how can we best work with this energy?

Start by bringing conscious awareness towhere our words feel inherited or habitual, and where they feel alive and electric with truth.

We are absolutley being asked to reclaim our most authentic voice and find the ideal way of best expression it. Whether it’s writing, speaking, sharing, or thinking differently, we can use this time to liberate how we express ourself.

It will be important to make an effort to continuioyusly detox ofrom tech and ground ourselves in Nature. Meditation, breathwork, time offline, and practices that soothe the mind will be our balm.

We will need to remember that it’s okay to not have all the answers, Curiosity is a sacred practice. But we shoudl remember to root our questions in values that nourish our soul.

And remember not to confuse stimulation for connection. Go deeper than just being “plugged in.” Being present and being human will be more important that ever.

Uranus in Gemini asks us to unhook from the narratives that no longer serve, to expand into new dimensions of thought, and to speak a language that’s truer, freer, and more soul-aligned.

It’s the beginning of a new era but it can feel destabilising for sure. To discover how Uranus and the other outer planets are going to really influence you on a personal level, check in with me to see what your chart can reveal, what is needing authenticity and change right now.
