Virgo Weekly Horoscope

This week could bring some intensity your way, although this intensity won’t be the difficult kind or overwhelm, but you either way will be glad to know that this theme will change as the days move along, and you will be feeling positively boundless by the weekend. The 5th arrives with a supportive sextile between your ruler Mercury in Aries and your 8th House of Shared Resources and Deep Bonding, and Jupiter in your 10th House of Career and Professional Reputation. This could bring a major windfall or opportunity your way, but the 8th House is quite intense territory, so you may be dealing with some important negotiations along the way or need to fight your corner with someone in the boardroom, but the angle between these two planets is so positive that even if you do have to stand up for yourself, it shouldn’t be very difficult, and you’ll be able to handle it with aplomb. Jupiter will be leaving your career sector in June, not to return for about a dozen years, so you want to make use of any transits while it is still in this fabulous territory.

Next, on the 6th, loving Venus is also currently in Aries and your private 8th House, and she is making her own sextile to alchemical Pluto in Aquarius and your 6th House of Daily Work and Routine. You could have a very pleasant day under this alignment, but pleasant doesn’t mean simple, because Venus in the 8th House is all about enjoying a bit of friction, while Pluto loves to stir up drama wherever it goes, so you may find yourself dealing with some office politics in order to get certain rewards for the work you’ve done recently. Again, the angle is positive enough that whatever happens shouldn’t cause much of a headache, but your desire to get ahead at work (or wherever you are) could prove larger than life.

Come the 10th, it’s time to ask, how wide is your world? If it has felt a little bit smaller than you’d prefer lately I’m happy to tell you that things are about to open up as your ruler, messenger Mercury, dives out of Aries and your intimate 8th House and wings its way into Taurus and your far-flung 9th House of Expansion and Adventure, which is a very high-minded sector that is all about broadening your horizons, literally and metaphorically. Your sign is one of the most intelligent of the zodiac, so if anyone could find a way to make good use of this energy, it would certainly be you, Virgo. The 9th House also rules higher education, so if you’ve been considering returning to school to pursue a degree or other sort of accolade, just know that this transit could bring an opportunity to do so your way.
