Dates for Sun transit through Virgo: Sep 17- Oct 18, 2023
The Sun represents our Soul. It also represents will-power, confidence, governments, power, authority and father-figures. The Sun moves out of charismatic Leo into earthy Virgo. This also marks the beginning of Autumn, with the heat rays of the Sun reducing in intensity.
Virgo is ruled by Mercury, which just became direct after three weeks in Retrograde. As the air gets crisper, our communication also becomes crisp and crystal-clear.
Positively, Virgo can be observant, logical, hard-working, intelligent, precise, dependable and even kind-hearted.
Negatively, Virgo can be aloof, pessimistic, judgemental, self-righteous, fault-finding, anxious and over-bearing.
The Sun likes to shine bright up in the sky and is a highly masculine planet, while Virgo represents all that is solid on earth and has a deeply feminine energy. If the Sun represents the dynamism with which we give commands, Virgo represents the quietness of a thinking mind.
What must we do as the brilliant Sun moves into practical Virgo?
- It is time to back-up innovative ideas, with a well-organized plan and complete dedication towards your work.
- However, you must not let Virgo’s need for perfection, prevent you from making progress altogether.
The fiery Mars is also currently in Virgo, with the dynamic Sun now joining it. Mars is the do-er among the planets. The red planet is the ruler of energy, action, passion, aggression, blood, accidents, brotherhood, fire, courage and even war.
What should we be mindful of?
- Keep a low-profile and focus on your own work and self-goals.
- Speak-up for yourself but try to avoid aggression and unnecessary drama around you.
