The next New Moon is on September 14 in the sign of virtuous, hardworking Virgo.
New Moons are a time for activation, initiation, creation, and go-getting ambition. It’s time to make a start on new adventures, goals, projects, and activity. You are brimming with energy and enthusiasm, so invest it wisely into something that will bring positive rewards.
This New Moon encourages us to activate personal goals that are aligned with Virgo’s preoccupations: work, duty, service, commitment.
You spend a heck of a lot of time at work, and put in enormous amounts of energy and emotion there, so shouldn’t your job be fun, enjoyable, rewarding, and pleasing? Of course!
And, if it’s not, now is the time to apply for something else, create a new career plan, retrain, revamp your CV, and get out there.
Let the tarot give you a nudge as to what new career goal you can manifest this New Moon.
Aries
March 21 to April 20
Do what you love (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Aries for the New Moon in Virgo: Ten of Cups
Your goal: Pursue your passion!
The Ten of Cups is a love card, a true and lasting love, a happy ever after. Are you in love with your job? You ought to be, Aries, as you’re a passionate sign and you follow your heart.
You can achieve anything when your heart is in it, you have boundless energy and ambition. You just need to pick the right thing. Now is the time to make a change and go for the Dream Role you’ve always dreamt of… the path towards it starts right here.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Progress may be gradual, but don’t give up (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Taurus for the New Moon in Virgo: Seven of Coins
Your goal: Evolution!
The Seven of Coins hints that change lies ahead but not in the immediate short term because what you want to do, ultimately, will take time and effort to get into. Maybe retraining, moving location, building a new network and profile.
This could take up to a year to activate and will lead to a new long-term career path leading to riches, but the journey starts here. Time to think, daydream, research, ask questions, plan, plot, strategise… and create your goal clearly and creatively.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Step out of your comfort zone (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Gemini for the New Moon in Virgo: King of Wands
Your goal: Take a big risk with a big reward!
The King of Wands is a gambler, a risk-taker, a player. He knows his worth, knows life is full of change and chaos, and he rides those waves to take him towards what he wants. Everything is an adventure, an opportunity, a chance (if nothing else) to have an experience.
Take this attitude on this New Moon and play a bold hand, take a giant leap, do something risky but rewarding. Why not? Nothing to lose, Gemini.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23

Tarot card for Cancer for the New Moon in Virgo: Nine of Swords
Your goal: Face up to what’s worrying you!
The Nine of Swords is the most common card in readings (that I do anyway!) as it means anxiety and unspoken fears. And we all carry those! In this case, you carry an unspoken fear about your work and it’s weighing heavily upon you.
I promise it’s not half as bad you fear and, if you say it all out loud (to a friend, the mirror, a journal) a lot of will evaporate… and you can tackle the crumbs of it that remain. Don’t bottle this up any longer. Speak up.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Stop waiting and start doing (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Leo for the New Moon in Virgo: Knight of Coins
Your goal: Ask for what you deserve!
The Knight of Coins shows how hard you work, how much effort and thought you put into your role, and that you kind of expect more rewards than what you’ve been getting. Don’t ask, don’t get. The squeaky wheel gets the oil.
Craft a case for promotion/expansion/better returns/more money/different benefits… whatever you can creatively imagine might get traction and present it this week or next. You might get lucky, even if not you’ll plant the seed that you know your worth.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
The cards are on your side, Virgo (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Virgo for the New Moon in Virgo: Seven of Wands
Your goal: Compete for the prize you want!
The Seven of Wands is like a gauntlet, an invitation to step into the ring and fight. Not literally… but often we do have to protect our position, battle a rival or foe to own our space, or apply for a role through a competitive process.
This card shows you can, and will, win! If you knew you couldn’t fail, then what would you go for? It’s time to do it, Virgo. It’s time to stand up for yourself and get what you want.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
You can get to the bottom of this (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Libra for the New Moon in Virgo: The Hermit
Your goal: Crack this case!
The Hermit is a powerful card about seeking enlightenment and bringing clarity and insight to a tangle of complexity and chaos. You love order, you are supremely organised, you have a ‘steel trap’ mind.
Use it to get stuck into the most complex or complicated part of your role and unravel it all. Make it clear, easy, flowing, automated, streamlined. Show your colleagues what you can do. Prove how analytical you are and how valuable that skill is!

Tarot card for Scorpio for the New Moon in Virgo: Four of Wands
Your goal: Go for promotion!
The Four of Wands is all about progress, promotion, advancement, and getting to the next level – whatever that represents for you. Maybe it will mean a move of some kind too – are you up for that? New scene = new opportunity.
You are starting to outgrow your current surrounds or role and you’re ready to expand and develop. Look for ways and means to do that this New Moon. Think out of the box. Progress is the goal, you’re ready to go onwards and upwards in every way possible.

November 23 to December 21
You’re ready to fly solo, Sag (Picture: Getty/Metro.co.uk)
Tarot card for Sagittarius for the New Moon in Virgo: Queen of Swords

It’s authentically ‘you’, it’s inspiring and motivating, it galvanises you into action and fills you with fresh hope for the future. Perhaps this is something you wished for in the past, but it didn’t pan out back then. It can now!

It’s via who vs what that we often make progress, so make sure you are in cahoots and have positive bonds with important people, with people who make decisions. Network.

Perhaps a new role, perhaps a change of current commitments or tasks, perhaps a new collaboration or partnership in the workplace. Look for immediate ways to bring more creativity to your role and daily life.
