The Week Ahead for Virgo
Monday, August 24th – Sunday, August 30th
Friday’s lunar eclipse is a mirror image of one that took place in early March so there may well be a connection to events of that period. Closure and completion are full moon themes but when the moon is eclipsed that theme becomes even more profound. The area of relationships is in the frame making this an appropriate time to seal a deal or to make some other kind of long-term commitment. However, the reverse can also apply, and a relationship could be done and dusted. Uranus is at the midpoint of this eclipse, so a sprinkle of surprise and uncertainty is in the mix.

Monday, August 17th – Sunday, August 23rd
The ministry of disinformation is alive and well, so before you act on information make sure it is correct. Normally, Virgo is a stickler for detail but sometimes in examining the details you lose sight of the whole picture. The answer is to step back and wait until you can see the wood rather than the trees. On Sunday, the Sun will enter your sign illuminating the way forward, and you may be surprised at what comes to light. For now, replenish your physical, mental and spiritual resources alongside ensuring that any potential weak spots are secured.
Strengthening your position.

The Month Ahead for Virgo
September 2026
It’s all about you. Whatever the needs and demands of others, you have to put yourself first. This is one of the most proactive months of the year. Use the power of your personality to achieve your goals and don’t underplay your assets. A job offer or some other opportunity that failed to materialize could be back on the table, and if you would like to reconsider a decision you made earlier in the year, have the confidence to do so. Late in the month, be cautious about signing up to a long-term agreement – not everything is quite as it seems.

The Year Ahead for Virgo
2026 is a year of golden opportunities – make the most of events on or near 18 July and 4 November – and while you can learn from the past, you don’t want to live there. Under 2026’s powerful alignments, your happiness lies in going after what (or who) you believe in, even if it means throwing up a piece of your past and entering foreign territory. From July, Jupiter will be moving through the twelfth house in preparation for its transit of Virgo from summer 2027. In tandem, you will be in a period of preparation. Not only are health and fitness important issues to get behind, but the endeavours you begin in the second half of 2026 will take a year to mature.
