✨ Weekly Energy Update ✨ The Virgo New Moon: Progress Over Perfection♍︎🌑

Hello Beautiful Sparkle of Source,
The energy this week is very focused on Cleaning things up, getting focused, and making positive changes without criticizing ourselves every step of the way.😅 With this strong Virgo frequency building as we approach the New Moon, it is bringing our attention to the places in our lives that could use a little more care, organization, consistency, and follow-through. I have a Virgo rising and it can be very challenging for me to not freeze up if I don't think everything is perfect to move forward. So, I will definitely be working with this New Moon to release these blocks I get around the shadow part of Virgo aspects and step into the light with them and create from a powerful place. I have simple rituals I do around the moon phases to assist in this that I've shared below.
One quick date note: the Virgo New Moon is exact September 10 at 11:27 PM Eastern, which is September 10 at 8:27 PM Pacific. Depending on where you live, you'll feel that New Moon energy strongly heading into September 11. Virgo has a supportive connection with Mars, adding some momentum to actually do something with the intentions we're creating.
Is there something you've been wanting to begin or take more seriously, but a little voice keeps telling you that you're not quite ready?
Maybe you think you need another certification, more money, more experience, a better website, more followers, more knowledge, or a perfectly mapped-out plan before you can begin. This has been me too.😬
Virgo says, stop waiting for perfect conditions and work with what’s already here.
Virgo energy has so many beautiful qualities. It is intelligent, observant, practical, devoted, organized, discerning, and truly interested in making things better. Virgo notices what everyone else misses. It can take a huge vision and break it down into manageable pieces. This energy is wonderful for our work, health, daily routines, learning, organization, and anything that benefits from patience and attention to detail.
But every sign has its shadow side. Virgo can become so focused on improvement that suddenly nothing feels good enough. We can overanalyze, criticize ourselves, obsess over tiny details, compare where we are with where we think we should be, or keep preparing forever because we're afraid of getting something wrong. Perfectionism can be sneaky because sometimes it disguises itself as being responsible.
We tell ourselves, I'm just waiting until I'm ready. Speaking from personal experience here.🙋♀️
Meanwhile, three years go by. No Joke!
This week is a beautiful reminder that ready does not mean perfect. We are allowed to learn while we're doing something. We are allowed to change our minds. We can create version one and make version two better. We can be new at something without making that mean we're bad at it.
🦋Small Changes Can Change a Lot
Instead of trying to reinvent our entire lives overnight, look at what happens repeatedly throughout your day. Our routines create a huge part of our physical reality. How we begin our morning, what we put into our bodies, where our attention goes, how much time we spend on our phones, how we work, how we rest, and what we continually postpone all accumulate.
Virgo understands the power of the little things. This makes the New Moon especially supportive for creating healthier routines, getting organized, clearing mental clutter, learning something useful, improving our work, tending to our physical spaces, and giving more attention to our well-being. New Moons are traditionally associated in astrology with beginnings and intention-setting, and Virgo brings that focus down into practical everyday life.
And there is something deeper underneath all of this. We are showing ourselves that our dreams are worthy of our care. When we give something our time, attention, and consistency, we're telling our energy field that it matters. And that is the one of the secrets to creating in this reality.
🌑 Working With the New Moon: My Simple Rituals
Create a peaceful space. Somewhere special like your favorite spot in your house or a sacred place outside in your backyard where you can relax and won’t be interrupted. Or gather with good friends and share in these rituals to support each other.
Light a candle, incense, sage, Palo Santo, hold crystals or sit with crystals and rocks all around you or anything that helps you feel peaceful and connected.
Make a cup of herbal tea and slow down and be present.
Turn off your phone and remove distractions for a little while.
Ground yourself and take several slow, deep breaths, allowing your body and energy to settle.
Connect with your heart and bring your awareness into your heart space.
Connect with your Higher Self, guides, angels, and any loving beings you work with, inviting their guidance and support as you set your New Moon intentions.
Write down what you want to bring into your life. Be clear about what you want to create, experience, heal and grow.
Write your intentions as though you are opening yourself to the experience now. Include how you want to feel and the vibrational space you want to live from, not only the physical things you want.
Also, you can write down what you would like to begin developing or creating during this next cycle. Think beyond what you want to receive. Include how you are willing to participate in bringing those intentions to life.
For better health: Write down one loving thing you can begin doing consistently for your body.
For business growth: Consider what deserves more of your time, creativity, focus, and attention.
For stronger intuition: Create more quiet space to listen to your inner guidance and connect with your Higher Self.
For greater abundance: Look at how you can appreciate, nurture, and make better use of what is already present in your life.
Keep it simple and meaningful. Choose intentions that really matter to you and give them your energy during this New Moon cycle.
Finish with gratitude. Thank your Higher Self, your Team, God/Source/Creator/Universe, then release your intentions and allow the magic to unfold.
🌟Setting Your Intentions
Keep your intentions clear and simple. Focus your energy on what truly matters to you.
Close your eyes and visualize yourself already living within that vibrational space.
Feel who you are there. Go beyond seeing what you have and connect with how this version of you actually feels.
Notice the details. How do you carry yourself? How does your body feel? What do your days look like? What feels different within you?
Let yourself experience the frequency of it now. Allow the feeling to become real within your body and energy field.
Then release it. Let Source/Universe, your Higher Self, and your Team take care of the how.
✨ New Moon Affirmations
I am available for opportunities beyond what I have imagined for myself.
I give my energy to what nourishes my body, my purpose, and the life I am creating.
I welcome greater balance, ease, and flow into my everyday life.
I am grateful for what is here now and excited for what I am creating next.
I am creating habits that support the highest expression of my life.
Remember, you are a powerful creator with the ability to bring your visions into form. Utilize this New Moon energy to amplify the positive Virgo qualities already within you, focus, determination, Divine wisdom, and analytical precision. Put that energy behind what you truly want and watch it manifest right before your eyes!
With love,
Jemaa 🌺
