On August 22, 2025, 4:34 PM EST, the Sun leaves Leo and Virgo season begins. This season is an invitation to remember that the sacred lives in the ordinary. We are entering a time of realignment, a time to cultivate devotion while immersed in mundane tasks. Virgo season is an opportunity to embrace humility while making sure we are not shaming or punishing ourselves for our imperfections.
Virgo season 2025 is a particularly significant time for people born with planets or angles in the Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces). This season offers them an opportunity to redirect their focus and recognize where their energy gets scattered or drained. These individuals are being called to release patterns of perfectionism and renew their commitment to their personal and spiritual growth without self-blame and self-judgment.
From Leo to Virgo Season: Invitation to Go Inward
As the center of our Solar System and the force that makes life on Earth possible, the Sun in Astrology represents the light of our conscious awareness. Each season, his journey through the twelve Zodiac signs illuminates a different archetypal energy, inviting us to explore and embody its unique expression.
During Leo season, the Sun inspired us to step into the spotlight, allow ourselves to be fully seen, and live with an open heart. This time of the year has been an opportunity to cultivate generosity, deepen our relationship with creativity, and choose to be the main character of our lives, rather than just watching from the sidelines. Leo season offered us an invitation to shine and to choose true presence over performance.
As the Sun leaves Leo to enter Virgo, the focus shifts more inwardly and our center of gravity gets closer to the ground. Virgo is connected with the harvest season, with the act of separating the wheat from the chaff, and with all processes that have to do with purification, selection, and discernment.
In Medical Astrology, Virgo rules the gut, particularly the small intestine. Digestion, both literal and metaphorical, is very connected to this sign, which emphasizes the importance of being aware of the impact of what we consume, differentiating between what is useful and what is not, what nourishes us and what doesn’t, and taking the time we need to digest not only food, but also our experiences.
Sun enters Virgo: Sacred in the Ordinary
Virgo season invites us to be aware of the importance of details and take care of what might seem small or insignificant, knowing that how we do one thing is how we do everything. This is a time to bring more reverence into our routines, to recognize that the seemingly ordinary aspects of daily life can be infused with mindfulness and intention. Virgo teaches us that service is not about self-sacrifice or self-abandonment, but about being committed to showing up with integrity, humility, and care, for both ourselves and others. This is a time to bring order where there is chaos, to clean up, to declutter, and to get clear about what matters most.
The Sun’s ingress into Virgo brings the spotlight on our relationship with work as service and with our physical body as our temple. During this season, we are invited to bring the spiritual down to earth, the sacred into the ordinary. The Sun’s journey through Virgo reminds us that washing dishes can become a meditation, preparing food can become a prayer, and that every daily task can be performed as a ritual. This season reminds us that devotion is not built on grand gestures but on consistent, mindful practice.
Virgo Season 2025: Upcoming Lunations
During Virgo season 2025, we are going to experience a New Moon at 0º22′ of Virgo, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces, as well as a New Moon Solar Eclipse at 28º59′ of Virgo.
The first New Moon in Virgo takes place on August 23, just a few hours after the Sun’s ingress into the sign. The Sun and the New Moon in Virgo will square Uranus in Gemini and this is the first time we experience a Sun-Uranus square since Uranus changed signs. This configuration points to how an overactive, restless mind, a need for ongoing stimulation, and constant information overwhelm can disrupt our emotional and physical health. It also offers us an opportunity to break free from the cage of perfectionism, revolutionize our daily lives, and radically restructure our beliefs about health, healing, work, and service.
The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces happens on September 7. The Lunar Eclipse in Pisces conjunct the North Node of the Moon will remind us that endings are new beginnings in disguise. This event will be a very powerful opportunity to close cycles, let go of the old, and release patterns and habits that keep us from growing. The Lunar Eclipse in the last sign of the Zodiac will ask us to surrender our ambitions, our ideals, our plans, and our attachment to outcomes to be truly open to receive what Life has in store for us.
As Virgo season comes to a close, we are going to experience another New Moon in the sign, which will coincide with a Solar Eclipse. Conjunct with the Lunar South Node, this Solar Eclipse challenges us to make radical changes in our relationship to work and health, close old cycles, and question what it means to be of service. Opposing both retrograde Saturn in Pisces and retrograde Neptune in Aries, this potent Eclipse is an invitation to redefine work, service, and spirituality, and commit to living in integrity and in alignment with our highest values.
These alignments can highlight areas where we feel restricted or burdened by responsibilities as well as escapist and avoidance tendencies that keep us stuck in procrastination or denial. Both Saturn and Neptune being retrograde urge us to reassess the obligations and duties we have taken on, as well as the nature of the dreams and visions we aspire to materialize.
Virgo season 2025: Realignment, Discernment, and Humility
We are entering a time of realignment, a time to make more conscious choices, a time to be more aware of how we respond to the environments we expose ourselves to and the energies we surround ourselves with. This time of the year is devoted to cultivating more discernment, refining the organization of our daily lives, and getting clear about our priorities and how we aspire to be of service.
As the South Node is still traveling through Virgo, we are being reminded to be mindful of the trap of perfectionism, overthinking, and excessive criticism of self and others. These are some of the shadow expressions of this sign that can be emphasized when the South Node is here. The North Node in Pisces, on the contrary, is asking us to surrender our attachment to our plans and be receptive to what Life is asking of us.
Virgo season reminds us that to embrace humility does not mean to blame, punish, and shame ourselves for our imperfections. During the upcoming weeks and especially during Eclipse season, we will have potent opportunities to release rigidity, self-judgment, and obsession with always being in control and give ourselves permission to make mistakes, to be human. This is a time to remember that healing is not a linear path, and growth does not require perfection.
