Work on perfecting your diet, organize stuff, and being in nature is also important to Virgo’s as earth signs. Anything to do with health, fitness, your dietary, routine and natural healing  is easier now. 

Virgo’s love information so catch up on some summer light or heavier reading, review old notes and brush up on work related knowledge bases.

Virgo is the largest constellation in the Zodiac. The 6th sign is traditionally the sign of servants, health care providers, indicators of health, routine, work, your community and pets, Virgo’s like to serve. 

Moon trines Pluto in the wee hours bringing those shadows and scary Nazi or the robber archetype up in your dreams. All Nightmares come in service. 

Moon sextiles Sun conjuncts JUPITER-

good for all Virgos, and wherever you find Virgo in you Natal chart.

Virgo’s are getting ready to finish up their best year in 12 shortly, so splurge a little. 

Moon makes three sexy sextiles today to Mercury in home loving Cancer, Mars in sexy Scorpio and Venus in motherly Cancer.  The mood is sentimental, so perfect for family gathering, outdoor barbeques and the like.

It’s Summertime and the living is easy. OK for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere. 

Moon inconjuncts URANUS in ARIES later in the afternoon

so be prepared for unexpected stuff of one sort or another and people’s moods to be shifting gears very quickly.

your tummy may be upset or sensitive. Do watch what you eat and drink plenty of water with lemon juice, apple cider vinegar or ginger.. 

SUN SEXTILES JUPITER @ 10:41 pm PDT/ July 10 EDT @ 1:41 am

This is a grand day for VIRGO’s. Jupiter expands everything he touches. We are getting the scientific facts about Jupiter the planet’s real identity now courtesy of spacecraft Juno.

Those os us who are VIRGO clean freaks can benefit from some long overdue dusty bunny clean ups, organizing laundry, whatever has piled up- you dont want to see my office these days. Take care of the mundane, maintenance stuff that Virgo’s love to sort out while the Moon is in this sign.
