After a few weeks of having your mind focused on how to shine your unique expression of Light, now your mindset shifts to the workability of your everyday life. Mercury entered Virgo yesterday at 3:36p PDT, quickly moving you into awareness of the practical reality of your life.
Today at 1:56p PDT, Mercury conjuncts the Sun in Virgo, providing you with an opportunity to align your mind with the truths revealed by the Sun’s Light about the real state of your daily life and lifestyle.
Virgo innately understands that without health and wellness, without clear plans and guidelines, without resources used effectively and efficiently, without getting to the root of problems to heal or solve them at their sources; things simply cannot work. Even if they seem to work at first, any inauthenticity or compromise will eventually throw a wrench into the system or process.
Virgo helps you realize that the day-to-day of your life needs to be functional and healthy in order to support your ability to shine consistently, courageously, and with credible strength. With the Sun and Mercury conjunct in Virgo, this is a brilliant time to get real with yourself about the reality you are living now. Once you see yourself as you truly are right now and your life for what it is right now, you can appropriately assess whether or not you’re satisfied and happy with what you learn to be true.
If you are satisfied and happy with the present circumstances of your day-to-day life, you get to enjoy this moment of realizing that you have created a solid foundation for your life and that it supports you in living your inner truth.
If you’re not satisfied or happy with the present circumstances of your life, you get to see where your thoughts and communications fail to line up with your practical reality. Then you can create a plan to change the course of your life by allowing your inner truth to guide the way.
Under the influence of Sun conjunct Mercury in Virgo, there is no right or wrong here that is measured or judged by anyone but yourself. YOU get to figure out what is right or wrong for you alone. This is about you being given a flashlight (or in some cases, a floodlight) and recognizing the opportunity available now for you to find or continue along your way.
It is also important for you to recognize that during this Sun-Mercury conjunction in Virgo, the feedback of others around you can indeed be helpful and constructive. Yet when you are operating from your emotional or psychological wounds, it may be difficult for you to see their words or actions as ways to become aware of the truth at hand for you. If you only see or hear criticism and judgment, be aware that it may be a reflection of your criticism and judgment of yourself. Distinguish your negative response as an indicator that can guide you directly to the wounds you need to heal within you in order to restore health and wellness and workability to your life.
The influence of this 2013 Virgo Sun-Mercury conjunction can be felt August 20th through August 27th. Use it to your advantage. Take this time to get real with yourself. It could prove to be more valuable to you in the long run than you could ever imagine.
Thank you for reading and sharing Signs and Numbers. Until next post…
