Whilst the Moon is still in Virgo…until 11.32 Tues in Australia, 0.32 Tues in London, 19.32 Monday night in New York & 16.32 in L.A….take some time to actually note down and analyze your Full Moon in Virgo findings.
Virgoan wisdom only counts when it’s put in a list & assessed. It’s not nebulous. And, given the recent astro-weirding, you should have some sort of sagacious info to carefully observe.
This is Isabella Rossellini, writing about her mother, the Swedish actress Ingrid Bergman:
“Never leave a room empty-handed,” she would often say to me, meaning that there’s always a glass in the living room that needs to be taken to the kitchen sink, a magazine in the bedroom that has to be returned to the living room, and so on. She taught me how to be orderly and how to clean house efficiently…
“…When my stepfather, Lars, bought the Théâtre de Montparnasse in Paris, my mother rushed in to clean it. “That poor house-keeper,” she told me, referring to the lady who generally did that job, “she had to work with the dirtiest rag and the most plucked-out broom. How can she do a good job? I told Lars, ‘Make sure she has what she needs. You cannot clean with an unclean rag or sponge; that just lets you spread dirt around — push it a little bit here, a little bit there. It doesn’t help eliminate it….’”
“…I love cleaning. For both Mother and me, cleaning and organizing are soothing, though because it feels good we may do too much of it. It can get obsessive, and we have to watch out for that. My mother even had to go to a doctor — she couldn’t stop cleaning, and everything got a little out of hand. The doctor diagnosed that she was allergic to dust, which is why she felt so strongly about getting rid of it, but I know that wasn’t it…”
She was seeking that “high” that cleaning gives. I know what it feels like; I’m always on the lookout for dust in secret places where I haven’t looked before to see if any has landed there. If I see it, I can’t stop thinking about it until I get rid of it. Dust brings out the hunting instinct in me, and I know I got that from Mamma….”
Allergy? High? Yes, of course, and she was a multiple-conjunct Virgo: Sun, Venus and Mercury.
Virgo SuperModel Carmen Kass at a chess championship.
I was wondering which signs would excel at chess, if any & whilst researching the subject I found out that the Virgoan Supermodel Carmen Kass, is not only a chess champion but president of the Estonian National Chess League. Her current lover is a Taurean chess champion (both Earth signs, bliss!) and Ms Kass has recently fought for but lost the rights for her native country to host the international Chess Olympics. Germany got it.
Three points:
* Chess goes in and out fashion, does it not? Occasionally a sexy chess playing scene is bunged into a movie? I was MADE to join a stupid chess club to calm me down aged 14-ish (Uranus sextile Uranus is always fun and NO, being made to do a very classical and trad ancient game with RULES is not the best thing for any Uranian transit.) Even the sitting down bit is a problem. So i ignored all the boring stuff and learned ONE really fancy gambit. Something to do with risking the Queen.
* The Virgoan Supermodel Chess Champion ideal is kind of cool, yes?
* I researched – a bit – the chess champions of the world and guess what?!!! The last TEN have all been MUTABLE SIGNS: Non-stop Gemini, Pisces, Virgo and Sagittarius. I would have surmised that the Fixed Signs – Taurus, Scorpio, Leo and Aquarius – would have been more strategic and patient. But there is a total bias toward the Mutables. WHY? Amorality? Fluidity? Your thoughts?
Karl Lagerfeld is uber-Virgo…& here he goes again…Talking to ID Magazine.
“I hate people like me, but i make believe that I am not boring…”
But your mind is alert all the time.
“Because of that. You only have a head like a crystal ball if you are doing house cleaning all the time from the inside and you don’t put the kind of garbage in your head that pollutes it.”
The Virgoan designer Tom Ford has featured here before (Virgoans Of Fashion) BUT I was just reading in Details magazine that he is known for walking up to complete strangers and straightening their ties, doing up a button or otherwise tweaking their look.
And, well, it reminded me of my friend Not-The-Typical-Virgo. Her thing is labels sticking out the back of someone’s collar. She will intervene for sure. Terribly pleasantly, of course. She has never – that I know of – done an intervention on someone’s tie or button situation but i think that’s just shyness. It would have crossed her mind.
So, courtesy of Tom Ford, what is your Virgo Quotient? Do you tell strangers when their shirt label is showing? Or only if their skirt is tucked into their knickers or something similarly over-the-top???

It doesn’t matter WHAT everyone tells you to do, what you think you should do or however this weekend is being played; the Moon is in Capricorn and Saturn schlepping along through the end degrees of Virgo. Status anxiety and performance awareness vie with health-time-efficiency-motion study AND task consciousness…It won’t go away till you measure it, define it, write it down, acknowledge it and create a plan to address the inefficiencies in your system.
And then, once you have satisfied the Saturn-Cap vibe by delineating what was previously vague…voila! Zen-Zone…Never mind that it may, in theory, take till the next time Uranus rounds the Earth for you to get a grip on the admin-self-esteem nexus. T’is the effort that is prized by la luna in Cap et al.
It’s not just the Dark Moon. There is a certain tone I’m picking up on in the comments, love weirding & restlessness. It’s the Dark Moon excabarated by Saturn inching (centimetering?) along in the last degrees of Virgo. But think about this: Uranus in Pisces has been kept in check by Saturn in Virgo since late 2008. Now, from October 30, Uranus is going to be off the leash. Yes.
Yes-yes-YES, Saturn goes on to square Pluto (Saturn is always doing something, as you know) & that is a whole other saga but so far as Uranian nights and days goes – this means fun, fast individuation, fast-forming relationships, fast-imploding relationships and sudden developments. All of the Saturn in Virgo lessons you have so painstakingly learned over the last year or whatever now come into play. Five months (from October 30 till early April) of Uranus at play
Ideally? All that Saturn in Virgo slog has led to you being more secure, organised, together, self-reliant and now actually able to have the Uranian love affair/existence/career gig of your dreams. Of course, if you don’t get with the Saturn vibe of the last year or so, it comes back to reality-check you next April.
If you’ve got Ascendent, Venus, Mars, Sun, Moon – anything really, in late Pisces, Virgo, Saggo or Gemini – prep for Uranian Love Weirding and/or cool Uranian peeps to enter your life with the express purpose of disrupting and enhancing it.
Go the Dark Moon in Virgo…
As you know, any Dark Moon is melancholic and introspective – you are supposed to rest up in prep for the next phase…It’s the dying days of an old cycle. You rejuvenate, sort, finish off tasks and unclutter. This is particularly the case with Moon in Virgo! How apt! How amazing! Stop mooning over whatever-it-is and go tidy your underwear drawer, do the speadsheeting you have been putting off, exercise, pixter your fangs – SOMETHING…
And would a SALAD kill you??? More likely quite the opposite. And, whether what you are pondering is a genius idea or not, t’is a time for endings not beginnings. THAT would be next week…Of which more very soon.
The Princess & The Pea really is the quintessential Virgoan Fairy Tale – non?
But a Virgo would deny that. Because Virgo is always sooo atypical. “Oh, I am not the typical Virgo, ” she doth protest. “The other week i let the fridge go without being vanilla wiped and the top shelf was not even colour co-ordinated.”
Or “I am like the opposite of what Virgos are meant to be like. Are you aware that your left sock has shrunk slightly in the wash or something and so it is out of kilter with the other? You can see that they are meant to match and are of the same pair but the left one is slightly more offwhite and the texture is not so smooth as that on the right.”
And “I am such an atypical Virgo. I was five minutes late to every single one of my appointments last Wednesday although it wasn’t my fault as I was having my curtains drycleaned and I had to ensure they used the correct cleaning product.”
Virgos may not DO everything but they sure as hell think of it & lie awake at night, noting the Not-Done in an orgy of self-guilting whereas our Scorp drifts off to sleep happily thinking of conspiracy theory, Saggo of their next trip (beach or mountain and what dullard obligation can they skip paying for to fund the trip – YAYYY!?) and Pisces fantasising re their latest crush and how best to spring their Stun & Beguile seduction campaign.
But poor darling sweet Virgo…they fall asleep thinking “baking soda…mend hem..book dentist…DAMN it….”
Remember Charlie Sheen was one of the few clients sprung in the Heidi Fleiss escort scandal because he kept meticulous records.
The Darkest Darky Dark bit of the Dark Moon CAN feel a bit like this; icy & rocky yet – because Mars is in Aries & there is a lot of brilliant new worldly stuff building – you are able to stand on the edge of a barren cold cliff and evoke primal bliss, power & genius.
So far – so good. But please do not forget the last day of the Dark Moon before it is new is also SO auspicious for uncluttering. Saturn is in Virgo for a while yet. Transcendence IS in the detail, God actually is next to clean & there are infinity number of house-witchery reasons to keep a real clean house.
Soooo…the old news, dead wood (old newspaper is symbolically dead wood, did you know?) and maybe even the chair if it is cracked, unstable or has poor Qi for some reason you can’t specify BUT if gives you the shits. Cherchez Le Grip! Before the New Moon! Again. Yes, it’s a cycle.
