Hello MoreYogis,

Virgo Season brings both closure and new beginnings with an era ending Lunar Eclipse in Pisces and a cleansing and renewing New Moon in Virgo. Mars in Cancer forces us to slow down, Mercury in Virgo sharpens our eye for detail and Venus in its home sign of Libra makes everything a little more beautiful.

This month I’ve pulled a card for each sign from the Work Your Light oracle deck.

As always, read the Yogascopes for your rising sign if you know it.

Happy Virgo Season

Amanda xx

Virgo Season

Virgo is an Earth sign – grounded, practical and embodied. The ruler of Virgo is Mercury – the planet of communication. Virgo communicates precisely, specifically and meticulously.

Virgo Season on the Yoga Mat

To bring Virgo energy onto the yoga mat is to notice the small details and to develop daily habits and routines. Virgo requires application and consistency from us. It’s the yoga practice as a moving prayer and an offering.

 

28th Aug 2026 (05:14 am BST) Full Moon in Pisces and Lunar Eclipse

Cast your mind back to the 7th Sept 2025 as there was a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces on that day too – check your emails and your camera roll for any clues relating to what was ending for you around that time. On this year’s Full Moon in Pisces we may feel reverberations or echoes of last year’s Full Moon in Pisces.

A Lunar Eclipse can often bring a fated ending and as Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac this can feel like a deep emotional purge. To compound this, on the day of the Full Moon, the Moon squares Uranus (the Great Awakener) which could signify shocking revelations that force a conclusion.

Trust that whatever you are letting go of, is clearing space for you to enjoy more contentment and more success.

The Pisces Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse will be visible in the UK between 3:33am and 5:14am and viewing will depend on cloud cover.

 

Full Moon in Pisces on the Mat

As a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces is a moment for a deep emotional purge, your yoga mat should become a place of sanctuary. This could be a time for a deep Restorative practice using as many props as possible and working with the element of Earth and the element of Water. Long holds in Child’s Pose (Balasansa) and Reclined Butterfly (Supta Baddha Konasana) will nourish and replenish you. It’s also a time to allow emotions to flow and we can tap into that embodied metaphor of emotional flow on the mat by working with the element of Water – chant the mantra VAM and enjoy intuitive flows perhaps travelling between Warrior II (Virabhadrasana II) and Lateral Lunge (Skandasana), or try a moving Bridge (Setu Bandhasana) visualising your spine rippling like a wave. This is also a crucial time for meditation.

 

Ritual

An Eclipse is always a time to do less, as Pisces is a Water sign, this is a perfect time for a salt bath or a swim in the ocean. Let the element of Water cleanse and protect you.

 

11th September 2026 (04:26 am BST) New Moon in Virgo

The New Moon in Virgo offers us a moment of clarity and respite following what may have been a turbulent Eclipse Season. This is a really crucial time to sit in stillness, pause and plan. We are being invited to reenvisage our lives, given the fresh information that the Solar Eclipse in Leo (12th Aug) and the Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (28th Aug) bestowed upon us.

Virgo is ruled by Mercury (planet of Communication) and this is a time to communicate what we desire and to ask for what we want with clarity and specificity.

As Mercury enters Libra around the time of the New Moon this can be a time to have deep conversations with your loved ones about your dreams and aspirations. Discussing your intentions with a trusted person at this time can be a form of incantation and spellwork as there is synergy between Mercury and some of the outer planets (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto).

 

New Moon in Virgo on the Mat

Virgo is the sign of small details and daily routines and habits. This is a time to commit to a regular practice and to tune into the subtleties of the practice. It could be interesting to set an intention to work consistently towards one pose and to pay attention to the details that change from day to day. Virgo invites you to be fully embodied and present. It’s an Earth sign that honours alignment, attention and intention.

Set a Sankalpa – a vow and commitment we make to support our highest truth. Practice Mindful Flows, play with props, positioning and patience. Virgo promises us that consistent effort yields results.

 

Ritual

This is an important time for ritual because it is the first uneclipsed lunation since the Full Moon in Aquarius (29th July). Make time to honour this Moon. Fennel is a herb of Virgo so brew a pot of fennel tea. Sit with a friend or partner and take an hour to talk about your plans for the next six months. Virgo loves stationery, so buy yourself a new set of coloured pens and a notepad and once you have discussed your plans take some time to write them down.

You can join me for a New Moon in Virgo Oracle Circle at MoreYoga Blackhorse Road on Friday 11th September 8pm.

YOUR VIRGO SEASON YOGASCOPES

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

This Virgo Season closes a chapter relating to a one to one relationship. The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse (28th August) asks you to either walk away from a partnership or set a strong boundary with your nearest and dearest.

With your ruler Mercury in Virgo until 10th September you will be feeling at your most articulate and incisive so take this opportunity to say what you need to say and to press send on any important emails and correspondences.

The New Moon in your sign (11th September) is offering you a chance to review your plans which are sure to have shifted significantly over the past year and a half. On the 20th Feb 2027 we have one final cycle-breaking lunar eclipse in Virgo which will catapult you into a new era of your life so lay the foundations now and be intentional about what you want that new era to look like.

As Mercury rules Virgo and Mercury is in Virgo until 10th Sept your Throat Chakra is at its most potent. Maximise your ability to express yourself by chanting the mantra “HAM”, wearing blue and practicing neck stretches, Cobra Pose (Bhujangasana) and Fish Pose (Matsyasana). With a New Moon in Virgo you are being invited to get intentional. Set a Sankalpa (a heartfelt intention) at the start of each practice.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Yes – Just say yes.

Libra (September 23 – October 23)

This is your time, dear Libra, as your ruler Venus (planet of beauty and love) is in your sign bringing harmony and grace to all you do. Pay attention to the aesthetic, artistic and romantic experiences that come up during this time, as on the 3rd October we will enter a once in eight year transit when Venus retrogrades through the signs of Libra and Scorpio.

It’s important to pay attention to the blessings that Venus bestows on you until the time of the New Moon (11th Sept).

It’s a good time to keep a Venus Diary – noting creative and romantic experiences until 15th December when Venus exits the shadow. You will be going on a journey connected to art, love and beauty and the more you pay attention, the more you will gain from it.

Virgo Season also has you craving big spiritual experiences and is guaranteed to bring shake ups to your daily routine. Don’t get too attached to the schedule, especially around the Full Moon in Pisces (28th Aug).

As Venus is in your sign it’s a time to work with the Heart Chakra. The practice becomes an embodied metaphor for bringing more harmony into the heart. Inhale: Beauty, grace, harmony, peace, love

Exhale: Heart gets a little lighter.

Work with heart openers such as Camel (Ustrasana), Sphinx (Salamba Bhujangasana).

Be sure to ground yourself during the Full Moon in Pisces as it’s travelling through the 6th house of daily routines and may bring upheaval. Ground by visualising roots that grow from the base of the spine and connect you to the core of the Earth.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Protection – Call back your power. Cut cords.

Scorpio (October 24 – November 21)

You know what they say, “diamonds are made under pressure” and you, dear Scorpio, may be under some pressure. This is because the outer planets are making tense aspects with your sign which means you are being forced to work hard and face your fears. The eclipse comes in fellow Water sign Pisces signalling an opportunity for emotional purge. A creative project may be coming to a close so take a moment to acknowledge all that you have achieved. The New Moon (Sept 11) almost coincides with Venus entering your sign (Sept 10th). You are on the cusp of a rare once in 8 years transit that will evoke nostalgia and may bring back people from the past. Be intentional about who and what you want to call in. Virgo season demands attention to detail.

The Lunar Eclipse could signal a big emotional purge so make sure to find time for restorative poses that support emotional wellbeing. This could look like a Reclined Butterfly (Supta Baddha Konasana) on a couple of bolsters or a long hold Pigeon Pose. As the New Moon happens in your 11th house of community. It’s a great time to attend a Moon Circle and call in a tribe to support you on your path.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Trust Your Path – If you knew you were supported, what would you do?

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Your closest partners may be unpredictable at this time but they also could be the source of exciting and unexpected ideas. Take time to really listen to what they have to say – are they just being erratic or are they actually inspirational?

The eclipse (28th Aug) will bring unplanned changes around themes of home and family. Stay open to new ideas.

The New Moon in Virgo (11th Sept) puts your career in the spotlight and asks you to put together a business plan for the next six months. By February 2027 you could be in a very successful place but you must clarify your vision.

Flexibility is key this Virgo Season. You can tap into flexibility as an embodied metaphor by working on functional mobility. Use a strap in your practice and try flossing the shoulders or a Supine Twist with a Strap (Parivrtta Supta Padangusthasana)

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Don’t Dim to Fit In – How are you dimming your light in order to fit in?

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

You are focused on the home sphere and on creating more stability for you and your loved ones. You want to build a safe haven and secure your private time. However, your daily routine is fraught with surprises that threaten to derail you. Rather than getting frustrated see these daily upheavals as opportunities to see life from a new perspective. You stand to gain a lot over the next seven years if you remain open minded and flexible.

The Full Moon Lunar eclipse could bring heated conversations with neighbours and siblings. It’s a chance to say what needs to be said in order to be able to move forwards. When the New Moon in Virgo comes along (Sept 11th) you could be craving a holiday and or planning some time away.

Build a strong Meditation practice and carve out moments of peace within your schedule. Extended exhalation breathing (make your exhale twice as long as your inhale) can help with nervous system regulation. The New Moon happens in your 9th house (travel, exploration, higher knowledge) so it could be a good time to book a yoga retreat or begin studying something new.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Get Grounded – Connect with nature.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse (28th Aug) is set to create big shake ups in your life. It can be helpful to contemplate where you might be stuck as the Eclipse is coming to liberate you. The trouble is, sometimes we like being stuck so the process of liberation could feel a little uncomfortable.

Ready or not, you are facing huge changes and the New Moon in Virgo (Sept 11th) will invite you to contemplate how you are ready to evolve. Your loved ones are offering an extra boost of support at this time, so don’t feel like you have to do it all alone.

As the Lunar Eclipse happens in your 2nd House (wealth and finances) it can be helpful to work with themes of stability on the mat – incorporate grounding, balance and connect to the Root chakra. The New Moon happens in your 8th house which is the domain of rebirth and transformation so you have the opportunity for powerful realignment. Deep twists are an embodied metaphor for finding the courage to evolve and move on from situations where you feel stuck. It can also be great to do somatic work and shaking.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Fill Up Your Well – Retreat. Rest. Refuel.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

There is Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (28th Aug) and with a Lunar Eclipse in your sign you might decide that you are tired of playing small and you may begin to make bold moves that shock yourself and others. When it comes to your closest relationships, you are no longer accepting second best and you can use the New Moon in Virgo (11th Sept) to ask for what you really want.

You want to rebel against anything that makes you feel bored or trapped so you are restructuring your daily routines to imbue them with more fun and excitement.

Virgo season invites you to be unapologetically yourself. Embrace the opportunity.

With a Lunar Eclipse in your sign and your traditional ruler, Jupiter, in Leo, you’re invited to step forward and shine and you will shine brighter if you adhere to joyful and dependable daily habits and routines. Your Yoga prescription this month is more philosophical than physical. The principle of Satya is important – that means being in your truth and living your truth. It can also be important to establish a regular practice but to think about how your practice can be a source of Santosha (contentment) rather than a chore that you must repeat.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Soul Family – Call in your tribe. You don’t have to do it alone.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

You are impulsive and gut led and would rather play things fast and loose but hard work, structure and routine are required of you now. The New Moon in Virgo (11th Sept) is all about planning and precision because it happens in your 6th house of health and daily routines. It offers you a clean slate from which to build a solid foundation for your life but before you reach the New Moon you will have to contend with the Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (28th Aug) which could bring your hidden desires to the foreground. The eclipse asks you to be honest about what you really want and it may even accelerate a conclusion of some kind. Your ruler Mars is in Cancer for the duration of Virgo season and this may impact on your energy levels and may somewhat diminish your usual vigour so plan, don’t push if you want to make the most of the current astrology.

Mars in Cancer invites you to opt for slower paced practices and to keep an eye on your energy levels. This is a great time for Yin Yoga and Slow Flows. You also have Saturn in your sign until April 2028 so you are not going anywhere at your usual breakneck speed. The New Moon offers you a chance to create and maintain a consistent routine.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Boundaries – Where do you need to establish better boundaries?

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

You are getting a taste of the presence of Chiron (the wounded healer) in your sign. Chiron will transit your sign until 2034 but at the end of Virgo season it will briefly retrograde back into Aries so pay attention this Virgo Season because you are getting a preview of the next seven years. Chiron wants you to become a teacher and a beacon of light for others who are experiencing a tragedy or a crisis that you have already been through. In helping others, you will help yourself. The Lunar Eclipse in Pisces will ask if you need to extricate yourself from a group and the New Moon in Virgo will invite you to perform and play in some way – don’t be afraid to take the spotlight. Your ruler Venus is in its other home sign (Libra) and this is great news for you – dim the lights, light the scented candle and let the good vibes surround you.

In mythology Chiron was a Centaur (half man, half horse) and he was the teacher of the gods. Hercules accidentally shot him in the knee. Although Chiron was a talented doctor, he could not cure his own wound but in seeking to heal himself he found powerful tools to help others. Your yoga practice is not just exercise – it’s a vehicle to deeper self knowledge. What have you endured that has made you strong, wiser and kinder? Move, meditate and contemplate. You have a healing gift to share with the world and if you don’t yet know what it is, find it by getting to know yourself on the mat.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Break the Chain – Ancestral patterns. Healing. Rewriting the future.

Gemini (May 21 – June 21)

You are known for your intellect but actually, when it comes to your work life, you are sensitive and intuitive and you often rely on hunches over facts. The Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (28th Aug) might have you acting on an inexplicable feeling that you just can’t shake. Trust yourself but take a moment to defer to logic too. If you meld intuition and clear thinking, you won’t go far wrong. This could also be an interesting time financially as Mars (planet of drive and ambition) moves through your 2nd house of finances, so it might be time to gently nudge for a raise or promotion. When the New Moon arrives (11th Sept) consider how you can create more comfort at home. Venus is moving through your 5th house of creativity so let yourself play.

With an eclipse coming in your 10th house of career and recognition it makes sense to hone your intuition on the mat. Strong intuition comes from deep grounding, meditation and poses that stimulate the pineal gland such as Locust Pose (Shalabasana) and Downward Dog (Adho Mukha Savasana).

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Keepers of the Earth – You are not alone. Ancient ancestors stand beside you.

Cancer (June 22 – July 22)

Throughout Virgo season Mars (planet of drive and ambition) is in your sign. This may make you more territorial and more determined to fight for your family and your privacy. This could also be a time when you retreat to your home and embroil yourself in domestic pursuits. The Lunar Eclipse (28th Aug) will have you questioning your belief system and may send you on a quest for more knowledge. Take time to consider what you might like to learn.

For the past six months work has been demanding more discipline than usual. Harness the energy of the New Moon in Virgo (11th Sept) to call in connections and build networks that will lighten your load.

You are one of the signs of the zodiac that needs the most time to recharge your social battery so make your yoga practice a refuge from the world. Opt for classes where the lights are low and the holds are long. With Mars in your sign, you absolutely do not want to rush, so let it be mellow, languorous and nourishing.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: The Age of Light – You’ve been training for this for lifetimes.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

The Sun may have left your sign but Jupiter (planet of luck and expansion) remains in Leo. This means that you are getting a much needed boost of confidence and may also be receiving the accolades that have been due to you for a long time. Whilst the Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (28th Aug) could feel intense and destabilising, it forces you to confront who or what is keeping you stuck or small. If you are willing to have a reckoning, by the time New Moon in Virgo comes around you will be feeling more sure of yourself and will be ready to rebuild with even stronger foundations. This is a good New Moon to set intentions around financial security.

You want fun and play but you also want to dig deep. Balance deep intensity with playfulness on the mat this Virgo season. Opt for practices that feel vigorous yet light hearted such as Rocket and Mandala.

Work Your Light Oracle Message: Mirror – Who or what is triggering you
