This month's New Moon in tropical Virgo correlates with a reset and new start that can help us rapidly increase improvements to various facets of our lives. Virgo, an earth sign ruled by Mercury, highlights ideals about how things should optimally function. Anticipate a sudden kickstart that can recharge a commitment to getting better or becoming more efficient at particular tasks, routines, or practices.

The first challenge of this New Moon lies in its wide conjunction and co-presence with Mars. Aggravation with details or minor occurrences can get in the way of the more productive aspects of this New Moon. Yet, Mars equally excels at inciting motivation, even if that manifests as some uncomfortable situation or realization.

Mercury, the New Moon ruler, also opposes Chiron, accentuating fault finding or a myopic fixation with personal defects. Dissatisfaction can motivate action and catalyze movement toward a more optimal way forward. Additionally, greater awareness of what needs attention can help open healing dialogues and pathways toward resolution.

Uranus's close trine to this New Moon dominates the aspectual picture. It offers to liberate all of those mundane aspects of daily existence in the form of an unusual path, approach, tactic, or technique. That might look like making some simple adjustment to a routine, but its impact can feel almost revolutionary. Follow gut impulses toward changing something up and stick with it; the freedom it brings will be worth it.
