Full Moon in Virgo

Virgo is the sign of detail and of things done with excellence. A favorable day for matters that require attention and quality control. This Moon tends to slow us down because of our tendency, sometimes excessive, toward perfectionism. When the Full Moon transits Virgo, we should take care what we eat, since digestion is vulnerable.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse 6:13 p.m.

A lunar eclipse occurs on the day of the full Moon, when the Moon and the Sun are in opposite signs at the same degrees, minutes and seconds, forming an axis of tension. In this case, the Sun will be in the sign of Pisces and the Moon in the sign of Virgo. Virgo is an earth sign, practical and analytical, with the drive to find what is useful, in constant pursuit of perfection and excellence, for which nothing is ever enough: something is always missing. Pisces is a water sign of great sensitivity, with a tendency toward service and helping others, moving between service, sacrifice and victimhood. Since this is a lunar eclipse, it will touch deep fibers of our unconscious. The Moon in Virgo, in conjunction with Mars, will point a finger at everything in which we feel insufficient, scarce, not authentic, inadequate. Our resource: to enter genuinely there with love, to face what we have been hiding, to lean on the immense light that dwells within us, and to allow it to bring light wherever everything seems dark. The eclipse is an interrupted energy during the 24 hours before the eclipse, while it lasts and during the 24 hours following its end. After these 24 hours, the energy starts up renewed. For a lunar eclipse to occur, total or partial, the three celestial bodies, Sun, Earth and Moon, must be in a straight line or very close to that position and, therefore, the Moon must be in opposition, full Moon, and enter totally or partially into the Earth’s shadow. A lunar eclipse is penumbral when the Moon only enters the Earth’s penumbra.
