Virgo the Virgin
September 2017 - Winter is Coming
August certainly packed a punch and I’m sure left many of us reeling. Between Mercury retrograde and the Eclipses, a lot of information was thrown at us. This month, we get the chance to breathe and make sense of it all. The atmosphere in general during this time of year is of getting ready. Autumn begins this month and “winter is coming” (forgive me George R.R. Martin). Now we harvest what we started in Aries and analytical, discerning Virgo is here to help with that task.
Mercury Rx in Virgo & Leo
Mercury will begin its retrograde orbit in the sign of Virgo on August 12th and then move into Leo on the 31st and remain there until it turns direct on September 5th. Virgo works hard; it is driven to perfect the skills it acquires so that it may be of service to the whole. Having Mercury retrograde during Eclipse season is definitely a cautionary tale to slow down and not be in a hurry to act. It also means that more information is likely to be revealed when Mercury goes direct again.
