The Moon enters grounded, practical Earth sign Virgo at 11:22 AM. Tomorrow the Moon will meet with the Sun in Virgo, and we will have our first eclipse of September. The vibe is highly emotional right now—we are about to go through some deep transformations. Reflect on your routines and rituals today. All times EST.


Aries

Your schedule is about to undergo some huge transformations, Aries, and you'll need to be the most responsible, organized version of yourself. It won't be easy: Mercury is retrograde!

Taurus

The Moon enters fellow Earth sign Virgo today, illuminating the area of your chart that rules over fun, romance, creativity, and even kids. Are you enjoying yourself today? If not, think deeply about how you can bring more love and inspiration into your life.

Gemini

The Moon enters Virgo today and activates the sector of your chart that rules home and family. Big changes will be taking place around your domestic life very soon. Reflect on what home means to you today.

Cancer

You're very psychic, Cancer, and today your skills will be called on. Lots of messages will be coming your way this week, both in the physical world and the spiritual.

Leo

Reflecting on issues concerning self-esteem or your finances is a very productive way to use today's Moon in materially minded Earth sign Virgo. Wear gold today, Leo. Big hair is also suggested.

Virgo

This is such an intense and powerful time for you, Virgo! You're in the middle of a major metamorphosis, thanks to a solar eclipse in your sign tomorrow. Who do you want to become? The "you" people met last month will not be who you are after this eclipse.

Libra

You're incredibly exhausted, Libra, and anyone who is trying to make you do more than you're already doing can go fuck themselves. Tomorrow's eclipse and the current Mercury retrograde demand that you rest and recharge.

Scorpio

You have an amazing radar for drama, Scorpio, and you can tell it's in the air! Tomorrow's eclipse and the current Mercury retrograde are activating the friendship and community sector of your chart.

Sagittarius

The Moon is in hardworking Virgo today, activating the career and popularity sector of your chart. Some big changes are coming concerning these topics, thanks to tomorrow's eclipse and the Mercury retrograde.

Capricorn

The Moon is in Virgo today, highlighting the travel and learning sector of your chart. You're ready to break free and explore new places—but not yet, Capricorn. Mercury retrograde needs to get out of the way first (which will happen on September 22), and so does tomorrow's eclipse!

Aquarius

The Moon is in Virgo today, activating a very psychic and sensitive sector of your chart. You're contemplating the depth of your intimate relationships—are you getting what you need, Aquarius? Big changes are coming.

Pisces

Big changes are taking place in your relationships, both romantic and otherwise. The Moon is in Virgo, the sign opposite you on the zodiac wheel today, inspiring you to reflect on what kind of give and take works best for you in relationships.
