Daily Horoscope: New Moon & Solar Eclipse in Virgo, September 20 & 21, 2025

The New Moon and Solar Eclipse in the mutable earth sign of Virgo arrives on Sunday, September 21st at 3:54 PM EDT, but the energy will be felt at nearly the same intensity on Saturday, September 20th, because as the moon approaches the same degree as the sun, it forms a brief sesquisquare aspect with Pluto in Aquarius giving you a deep instinctual sense of just how intense the revelations and insights to come might be. Usually, I detail the exact planets and aspects that set the scene for potential feelings, thoughts, and actions, but today I will skip that because there are so many, but if you need the details, watch my video. On August 23rd a New Moon occurred at zero degrees of Virgo, and this September New Moon in Virgo occurs at 29 degrees, the final degree of the sign, bringing a feeling of urgency or of time running out to whatever area of life, issue, or project you faced a month ago. Mars at 29 degrees of Libra, adds pressure to take an action which may involve relationship, and three – yes, three! – Yod aspect patterns are highly significant both physically and spiritually in terms of shared bonds and paths. Key themes now include reaching higher, but in a practical, purposeful, or grounded way. Bridging the space between your mundane life and something sacred. Finding a path to purpose and service to others that also fulfills your material needs and elevates your spirit. Tapping into, and sharing, your unique talents or skills despite fear of criticism or rejection because the risk of vulnerability and exposure is minor compared to the unhappiness, and even disease, which can grow over time if you are not true to your heart. Finding the right balance between giving and receiving, establishing healthy boundaries, and discerning when it is appropriate to utilize tolerance, acceptance, forgiveness, and alignment, or detachment and non-confrontational self-containment and release, are just some of the many challenges this New Moon and Eclipse present you with, but the planets are pushing you to face those challenges and handle them, while also supplying the inspiration and assistance you need to do your best while under duress, just as a rising flood necessitates that you climb to dry land. You may experience the high from adrenaline surges as you release blockages or tackle a big project you have been avoiding, or the peace and calm of a mind or a relationship brought into balance, or the satisfaction of succeeding at something you always wanted to do, but never felt sufficiently prepared to try, until now. Choosing to embody pure and selfless love, as well as simply living by the Golden Rule of “doing unto others as you would have them do unto you” can transform and change almost any situation by building a bridge between people, and making the improbable, possible.
