5 Things Everyone Needs for Virgo Season 2019

Get ready for a new vibe! From August 23 to September 23, the sun will move through detail-oriented, thoughtful, service-oriented mutable earth sign Virgo.

The season of Virgo—a sign ruled by Mercury (the planet of communication, transportation, technology, and research)—will inspire you to soak up knowledge, connect, get inquisitive, and find new and exciting ways to help others. With curious, intellectual Mercury fueling its energy, Virgo season encourages us to improve our overall wellness, look for mental stimulation, and care for those we love in expressive ways.

What Characterizes Virgo Season?

Compared to the gregarious, fiery, spotlight-loving energy of Leo season, the sun’s trip through Virgo promotes a more low-key, sensitive, and grounded approach to love and life. Virgo season is made for planning, list-making, scrutinizing, and stepping up self-care efforts. After all, the health-conscious and heartfelt earth sign is the ruler of the sixth house, which involves daily routine and wellness.

While Leo energy is all about zeroing in on a goal, then taking bold action, Virgoan vibes tend toward thoughtfulness, introspection, analysis, and ideation. Both signs are imaginative in their own way—but Virgos are concerned with the details and, often to a fault, taking action in a way that is just so. In fact, the earth sign’s fatal flaw might very well be its perfectionistic tendencies.

Virgo season brings out our desires to improve our lives, even in small, day-to-day ways, be it through amping up our fitness regimens, getting organized at home, taking on more responsibility on the job, and being of service to those we love and our communities. And given that Virgo is, in fact, a Mercury-ruled sign, its season is absolutely social. From end-of-summer BBQs to Labor Day block parties, this time period is filled with events that are both romantic and stimulating.

Those born under the sensitive earth sign are also known for their interest in expressing what’s in their hearts, often through the written word or other form of communication, given their ruling planet Mercury. They may be authors, poets, songwriters, journalists, or simply talented at crafting a memorably-worded romantic text or email. For that reason, Virgo season is sure to be filled with plenty of sweet, thoughtful self-expression.

Here, you may be even more cerebral than usual. Your amplified intellectual instincts can bolster your efforts on work projects and stimulate vibrant conversation with friends and loved ones, but you might also be more likely to overthink and analyze unnecessarily. For that reason, you’ll do well to take special care with your health—especially to preempt stress-triggered concerns. Instead of reaching for coffee or soda, consider getting a boost from these matcha latte infusions—a premium green-tea-laced with nourishing ayurvedic herbs, like anti-inflammatory turmeric, as well as digestion-supportive ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, and black pepper.

The Moon Deck

For: the Virgo new moon

When: August 30

Working with this intense energy can be daunting, so having the right tools at hand is key. One possibility: The Moon Deck, created by Aarona Lea Pichinson, a stunningly illustrated, interactive tool meant to help you connect with your intuition and emotional health—during a new moon, full moon, or any other moon phase.
