How The New Moon And Sun In Virgo Can Motivate You To Loose Weight
Following the Lunar cycle has many advantages for understanding our innermost dynamics better
.
The New Moon and Full Moon events are often thought as almost magical points in the evolution of the Moon throughout the month. Depending on their position in the zodiac sign they shed a specific light onto inner processes and give us a potentially different perspective. While the New Moon is the conclusion of one circle of energy it also opens up a new chapter.
With the Full Moon that new theme is fully exposed in the full light and moves towards the conclusion in the next New Moon. It is a beautiful dance of birthing, ripening and integration.
New Moon in Virgo September 8
And of course Full Moon and New Moon are always in opposing signs. The last Full Moon was in Pisces with an invitation to deepen our inner connection with the divine and strengthen our spiritual roots as well as confronting health issues, mysterious illnesses bases on toxicity and poison. Now with the New Moon in Virgo we are asked to come to a conclusion with the balance of the mundane and the spiritual in our lives. There is the need to use the logical mind of Virgo which is so finely tuned to details and skillful functioning in the physical world. It is important to find your place in the bigger scheme of things and contribute with your unique gifts only you have to share.
Virgo is very generous as a healer and good friend and feels best sharing his skills. This time quality will support you to ask yourself successfully some honest questions:
- What is my specific gift?
- Am I generous with myself and others?
- How do I contribute to life?
- Where could I use more order in my life?
- Do I have unfinished business I need to tend to?
You have to be willing to take your health into your own hands. You have to become an expert educating yourself and design new habits living your life. This theme continues with the Sun and Mercury still in Virgo. Mercury is staying for almost 2 month in this health conscious sign instead of the usual 3 to 4 weeks.
The trine of this New Moon with Pluto in Capricorn helps you to see yourself clearer and inspires to take more responsibility for your body, the temple of the soul.
Retrograde Mercury Turning Direct Again September 12
The mythic messenger of the gods helps you to become more aware and conscious about your present condition and empowers you to make decisions and take appropriate action towards that goal. Sometimes you might feel overwhelmed by the magnitude of your goal and feel paralyzed to even get started. The trick is to chunk it down into manageable sizes and reward yourself along the way. If you already enjoy the process you don't have to wait till the elusive reaching of the finishing line to feel good.
Loosing Weight with Virgo is Easier
For example if you want to loose weight, that is a big and often intimidating goal and often we do not believe that we are actually able to pull it off. You might have tried all kinds of diets or even fasting with no lasting results. Some of my middle age girl friends have given up and pacify themselves with saying it is all menopausal. Maybe what you need is a whole different and fresh approach? Maybe the hormones are only part of the picture? Maybe you have just accumulated so much toxicity in your body over the years that it shows up in middle age or even earlier?
If you want to loose weight and chunk it down into smaller pieces you might end up with a plan that says:
- Educate yourself about the underlying causes for gaining weight (like storing toxins in your fat to keep the body functioning) I recommend Dr. Sherry Rogers books.
- Determine your blood type and find out which is in general the appropriate and healthy diet for you (Blood Type Diet)
- Check out your vitamin and mineral levels and determine your deficiencies (Metamatrix.com)
- Investigate how many heavy metals you have in your system
- Refrain from any kind of processed food for a month and see how you feel
- Cook for yourself whenever possible with fresh vegetables, eat fresh fruits, try out sea weeds cooking them with whole grains
- Half your sugar intake, use raw agave or honey instead
- Acquire an Infra Red Sauna, speed up your metabolism to get toxins out and loose your fat layers
- Do a regiment of colon cleanses or daily coffee enemas
- Find a way to exercise in a way you actually like doing. Join a dance class, go for walks with your friends or your dog; find something that actually works for you.
Of course this list can become a very long one. I just want to inspire you to make your own and get started. After a while the momentum will carry you and you will feel so good that you will be more then motivated to keep it going. If you choose to reward yourself along the way you will enjoy the process even more. You could go and get a massage or do a little shopping and find something to beautify yourself and feel really good.
Jupiter Back into Pisces September 8
Also Jupiter backs into Pisces a few hours after the New Moon and will be there until January 2011, staying within 3 degrees of Uranus in Pisces. Optimistic Jupiter represents faith, expansion, wisdom and abundance but can go overboard into hubris and extravagance. Jupiter in Pisces invites us for deeper introspection into the hidden non physical realms, the more subtle dimensions shaping life. Thoughts are also non physical to begin with but they shape your life and become manifested into the physical realm.
This constellation can be a real gift for you and an encouragement to sit down with a cup of tea, relax and contemplate.
Venus Dives into Scorpio September 8
With Saturn in the relationship sign Libra we already have to take a deeper look at the dynamics in our relationships. With Venus now moving into Scorpio we might encounter some hidden layers of our needs and instinctual drive for survival, sex and power. Here you have the theme of control and deep passion. Scorpio always forces us to be honest at least with ourselves about our true motivation of doing things.
The goddess of love asks you to be very honest about your primary relationship as well as your friends in general. Next week Mars will be joining Venus in Scorpio. That will deepen the intensity in all relationship issues. Stay calm.
I believe it is crucial to discriminate with wisdom what you can impact and change in the part of the world that is within your reach. You can be a force for good in making a difference for the world and yourself by living your highest potential, your best life. You are making a difference! Be the light you want to see in the world! Start with yourself and be as healthy and joyful as you can be!
I hope you enjoyed this article, aloha and many blessings, Shakti.
