Full Moon in Virgo

Spread the love

This beautiful Full Moon culminates on March 28th at 11:47 am PST in the sign of Virgo and the lunar house of Hasta.

Virgo is a sign of our logical mind. Virgo’s energy as a Mercury-ruled sign can tend to be quite intelligent and strongly detail-oriented.  It is precise, articulate, and exacting- much more of a mental-based energy.  

Moon is all about the feelings and our emotional experience and doesn’t always use the rational mind before expression. Moon in Virgo represents the fine balance of both these realms- the intuitive inner guidance blended with the rational decision-making ability.

The Full Moon in this sign this month can lead us to a harmonious balance of the intellectual and the emotional.  Moon is also aspected by an exalted Venus, our planet of love and desires. While Moon and Venus together can tend to be too romantic and idealistic, the logical influence of the sign of Virgo will balance this tendency for over emotionality.  

The lunar house of Hasta also represents this equilibrium. Hasta gives us the power to gain what we are seeking, represented by the hand (or fist) and getting the things we want in our hands. The symbol of the fist shows the power and determination to achieve our goals. But the hand of Hasta can also represent all sorts of hands-on healing modalities as well as palmistry and astrology. Situated in the intellectual sign of Virgo, it also carries the qualities of a sharp mind and intellect.

In India, this Moon is the much celebrated day of Holi. This is a colorful festival that marks the coming of spring.  While externally Holi is celebrated with colors and play, internally Holi is the day to forgive and forget and to mend broken relationships. 

Perhaps we can all use the balance of the intellect and emotion of the Full Moon in Virgo to do this very important work of healing relationships, and allow these two parts of ourselves to function in equal harmony.

Be in touch if I can assist you in any way.

Mrinmoyee is in a long term love affair with Mother India, the land of her spiritual birth. She has lived primarily in India for the last 2 decades, and while she appreciates most all aspects of the culture, Vedic Astrology, Meditation, and Devotional pactices have been her primary focus.

Having grown up on the East coast of the United States, she deeply sees the need for the Vedic sciences in the modern Western life. She lived for 10 years in an Indian Buddhist spiritual community in North India where meditation and seva (service) were the foundations of her practice. Here she experienced the traditional teachings passed down through a lineage that is customary in India. As her interest in Vedic Astrology grew it took her to different regions and teachers of India and the US. She has studied Vedic Astrology for the last 10 years, and has given hundreds of readings to people all over the world in the last 5 years.

She offers introductory workshops on Vedic Astrology, and retreats in India. But the main focus of her work is personalized birth chart consultations. She has studied with both traditional and modern teachers, and gives a traditional analysis of the chart combined with a modern, applicable interpretation. While Vedic Astrology is Hindu in its origins, a person need not be following that path to benefit from her readings. Advice on career, relationships, finances, ideal living locations, and spirituality are just some of the areas of life that can be covered in a session.
