mercury ➫ virgo (and a live show in LA tomorrow!)
let's keep this succinct, as the virgos would
Look, we are gonna dive into all things Mercury + Virgo + Leo when the Retrograde happens on August 4th. For now, I’m gonna keep this succinct because that’s the Virgo way. A Virgo does not want to be overloaded with unnecessary info. They prefer you give it to them straight, no chaser.
Mercury, our planet of communication and expression, is now in the sign of Virgo. Symbolized by the maiden, she tends to the earth. A sustainable queen who loves to see the fruits of her labor, the rewards for all of her hard work! Virgo is an Earth sign, but Mutable, Virgo is not an unmovable stone. The evolve with each experience and learn from the ways of the past. Virgos are always updating to the latest energetic software.
Mercury moved into Virgo on Thursday, July 25, 2024, at 3:42PM PT. Mercury rules over not only Gemini but Virgo as well. This is where Mercury likes to be, but in a different way than Mercury in Gemini. They’re both “right” but approach the realms of thought very differently. Gemini talks to discover and processes in real-time in front of a crowd. Not Virgo lol are you kidding? Virgo will report back once she’s got a firm grip on what she wants to share! Virgo, the natural fact checker, the researcher, the deep diver, the enthusiast. This is why we can find stereotypes of perfectionism when it comes to Virgo energy. They just care a lot, ok?!!? Another stereotype you may have heard is that “Virgos are clean and organized”…now a lot of them are. I’ve seen it with my own eyes and astrology is both science and social science. I’ve also met plenty of “messy Virgos” and the common thread between the tidiest and the sloppiest of Virgos is: systems. Whether is filing cabinets or specific piles on their chairs, systems are their lifeblood. Don’t fuck with their systems!!!
So while Mercury is in Virgo, before the Retrograde begins, take this time to honor your systems. The maiden knows a thing or two about working with the seasons of life. Some systems might be really good for the summer, some for the winter. Some for when you’re feeling great, some for when you’re feeling low. Systems must honor mutability, as Virgos do. Force it and feel forced. But when you respect your systems, your fluctuations, and your seasonality you may come to find more fruits have bloomed than the ever before. 🍇 🍈 🥑 🍋 🥕 🥭 🥬 🍐 🥒 🍓 🥝 🌶
