FULL MOON IN VIRGO
The final full moon of winter and the astrological year (the astrological new year begins on March 19, with Aries season and spring) will take place on February 24th at 4:30 AM Pacific Standard Time or 7:30 AM Eastern Standard Time. This particular full moon will be in the sign of Virgo, and will prompt us to consider our emotions and what we desire to align with, using our logical thinking skills. This full moon is called a “micromoon” because it is very far away from Earth and will appear to be smaller than the moon normally is.
During the full moon in Virgo, Mercury and Saturn will be in Pisces, while Jupiter will be in Taurus. As a result of Saturn's influence, we may experience intense emotions and feel isolated. However, Jupiter will remind us that we are not alone and that there is a community willing to support us. To make the most of this energy, it's important to focus on the bigger picture and stay positive.
The asteroids Ceres and Pallas are active during this lunation because they aspect the mokn. The presence of Ceres in Capricorn provides us with an opportunity to nurture ourselves and others. We should work hard to provide ourselves with the extra love we deserve. Pallas, who is in Sagittarius, is presenting us with an opportunity to fight for the chance to give ourselves TLC. We just have to put ourselves first and know our limits and boundaries.
In the evening, the planetary square of Venus in Aquarius with Jupiter in Taurus creates an opportunity for us to explore the vastness of love and its potential to grow and evolve — particularly around how these sentiments make us feel about ourselves. It's a moment to prioritize self-care and extend kindness and respect to ourselves and those around us. By letting go of negative emotions and embracing positivity, we can experience healing and foster forgiveness. Let's channel our energy towards acknowledging the goodness in our lives and the people in it.
Full moon ritual
To purify and calm your body, mind, and heart, taking a Rosemary bath is an excellent option. You can prepare the bath by adding Rosemary and Epsom salt to boiling water, and then adding the herb. After the water has cooled down to room temperature, pour it over your shoulders and let it flow downward to detoxify your aura. After that, towel dry yourself. In case you don't feel like taking a bath, you can prepare a body scrub by mixing Rosemary oil or herbs with Epsom salt and coconut oil in a jar. Use the scrub to cleanse your energy and wash it off with water. Then, air dry yourself.
