With Virgo energy strongly present next week, Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains what it means for each star sign

The Virgo energy is strongly present next week as we have both the New Moon and Mercury stationing direct happening in this practical and humble sign. Although we have been in Virgo season for a little more than two weeks now, the New Moon on September 14 will initiate us into deeper Virgoan energy, where we may feel an urge to clean up the messes in our lives. Besides being practical and logical, Virgo also values the gift of humble service. On this New Moon, spend time reflecting on how your current priorities are contributing to your larger goal and how you may wish to better serve the world—this could be through sharing your natural talent or by simply being your authentic self. With the positive influence of Uranus in Taurus, practical assistance may swoop in where things line up quicker than we imagined and solutions are offered out of the blue. 

Another exciting cosmic event this week happens on September 16, when Mercury goes direct in Virgo. During its three-week retrograde period from the end of August, disruptions and delays might have occurred, as well as unexpected endings. If you had experienced uncertainty during that period, clarity and understanding could be revealed now. Make use of this cosmic transit by taking a moment to reflect on the disruptions that occurred and consider whether those were blessings in disguise, nudging you back on your most-aligned path.
