Virgo Weekly Horoscope

You are emerging from a deep sleep this week, Virgo, though it may not feel like it as Monday arrives. On the 17th, action planet Mars will form a tense and difficult square with Neptune, making it difficult for us to know what to do with ourselves or how to direct our energy. Mars is currently rotating through Cancer and your light-hearted 11th House of Extended Friendships and Global Communities, while Neptune is in your intense 8th House of Privacy and Deep Bonding, so these energies are quite at odds with one another; Mars is driving you to connect and socialize, while Neptune wants you to explore the mysteries of life behind closed doors, so to speak. With this in mind, you will probably feel an extreme tug-of-war between what you show people and what you choose to keep hidden away. Is there some kind of behavior you’d rather didn’t become public knowledge? Then make sure to stay away from social media for a hot minute; with Neptune throwing a wrench in the works, it would only take one wrong click of the “send” button for a status or picture to go public that you wind up regretting for far longer than you’d like.

Fortunately, Venus in your money-loving 2nd House will also be making a supportive sextile to lucky Jupiter in your fantastical 12th House on the 17th, so someone or something could be keeping an eye out for you, and even drop a rather lovely windfall in your lap as a result. A financial gift or opportunity of some kind could come from out of the blue, so grab hold when it arrives!

The 19th gets punctuated by a Half Moon in Scorpio and your 3rd House of Local Community and Communications. Have you fallen out of touch with a few people during these last couple of months? Reach out to a few friends you haven’t heard from, or perhaps a sibling or other family member, and spend some time reconnecting. You’ll be surprised how much it does for your emotional state. This is also just a great time to hit the town and see what’s going on in your neighborhood; you may discover a few new spots that quickly become your favorite haunts.

Only a few days later, it’s time to power up your engines and get ready to blast off from the starting line because it is your time to shine! On the 22nd the Sun exits Leo and your sleepy 12th House and bounds into your sign and your 1st House of Action for the next four weeks. This is your birthday season for a reason, Virgo; it’s time to put your desires and aims front and center so don’t think this isn’t the perfect time to pursue some dreams. The world will begin to open up to you over the next few weeks in ways that it hasn’t in a very long time, but don’t be surprised if a lot of opportunities come to you out of the blue; happy birthday, indeed!
