Today, Wednesday, September 8, 2010, is the NEW MOON in VIRGO! It occurs at 6:31am EDST / 5:31am CDST / 3:31am PDST. Since I believe in the power of intention and being clear on your goals, today could be a great day to write your goals, dreams, wishes, and intentions for your career or any part of your life! And Virgo emphasizes getting organized and relationships with co-workers… very career related. So, give it a whirl. If anything, just sitting down to do this will give you clarity on where you want to put your efforts for the month.If you want more details about new moon intentions, I get this information from a book called ‘New Moon Astrology’ written by Jan Spiller. She has more information on this month’s new moon on her website at: http://www.janspiller.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3158
As Jan states on her site, “Because this New Moon is in the sign of VIRGO, it’s a powerful time for new starts in re-energizing positive relationships with your co-workers and bringing to completion any organizational tasks you may have been avoiding. Things you may have wanted to happen in your life for a long time can begin easily manifesting through using the boost of this service-oriented and practical New Moon!”
Here is the scoop on new moons:
It is very powerful to set intentions within 8 hours (after) the new moon occurs (see dates and times above). Within 48 hours after the new moon is still powerful.
- Write up to 10 intentions (any more than that and the energy gets kind of displaced).
- It is best to hand write them (vs type)
- Each month, the new moon is ruled by a different astrological sign which rules certain aspects of life. Writing intentions in these areas is very powerful but you can write your intentions in ANY area of your life.
- Write your intentions in the positive… In other words, state what you want (don’t say what you don’t want or may just get that!).
- Make sure the intention/wish resonates with you. Some people write wishes like, “I want to create…” and some people right something more in the present like, “I easily create…”
Virgo is ruled by:
- Physical Health, including: diet, exercise, establishing good health habits, weight control, healing, healers (nurses, doctors, chiropractors, etc.)
- Example intentions: “I easily find myself attracted to and consuming only those foods that are low fat, low calorie, and healthy for my body.” - or - “I easily attract, recognize, and begin working with those healers who can successfully help me restore my body to perfect health.”
- Work, including: jobs, work projects, tasks and errands, co-workers, structured routines
- Example intentions: “I easily find myself completing work projects with a minimum of stress and a maximum of efficiency.” – or - “I easily attract, recognize, and begin working at the right job for me.”
- Organization, including: orderly environments, handling details, efficiency and planning, paperwork, punctuality
- Example intentions: “I easily find myself creating neatness and order in my home.” – or - “The habit of being late is easily lifted from me.”
- Discrimination, including: fun, play, games, parties, vacations, recreational sports, taking risks for excitement analysis, critical thinking, focus, discernment
- Example intentions: “I easily find myself accurately discerning what is important to me and what is not.” – or - “i easily find myself focusing on, and appreciating, the opportunities that are being offered to me.”
- Service, including: willingness to adapt, practical helpfulness, purity of intent, conscientiousness
- Example intentions: “I consciously feel satisfaction from being of service to others in my work.” – or - “I easily find myself responding to disorder and confusion with an approach of practical helpfulness.”
- Synthesis, including: desire for perfection, processing, bringing order out of chaos, the ability to see how the pieces fit
- Example intentions: “I easily find myself aware of – and accepting of – good fortune when it comes to me.” – or - “I easily find myself processing my relationship with _______ in a way that leads to a total healing for me.”
- Excessive Perfectionism, including: worry, criticism, blame & judgment, workaholic tendencies
- Example intentions: “All self-defeating tendencies to perfectionism are easily lifted from me.” – or - “The compulsion to be ‘right’ is easily lifted from me.”
- In matters of restoring health, Virgo rules: bowels and intestines, constipation and diarrhea, digestion and assimilation, solar plexus
- Example intentions: “Total healing occurs easily in the area of my ________ (area ruled by Virgo).” – or – “I attract right information that leads to a total healing of my tendency to (body distress associated with Virgo).”
My wish for you is that all of your new moon wishes come true. If I can help in any way with your career and life goals, please let me know. Happy Wishing!
