Jupiter in Virgo, Renewal in Service

It’s the Virgos’ time to party!!! Ahem. Or work, because we’re confused like that. We have a year to get this sorted.

The recent messages recently have been none too subtle. I’ve had phoenixes and regenerating doctors (ala Doctor Who) in my dreams the last 3 days. Renewal, resurrection and rebirth on the oracle cards. (The only trouble is, my goddess deck kept giving me death/underworld goddesses. Maybe it’s related to the Jupiter-Neptune opposition that’s going to drive up the Virgoan insecurities before we get to bask.)

Leah Whitehorse gives an overview of Jupiter in Virgo:

One phrase comes to me again and again – self improvement. It’s the perfect time to start a process of personal development, a new exercise regime or diet. Managing this transit will be about managing the art of keeping one eye on the little picture and the other eye on the big picture. Small actions can have a big effect. Think ‘cumulative’.

The spirit of service may well be strong during the next year. It would be nice to think that on a mundane level this could encourage a little more kindness, a little more help for those who are in need rather than passing the buck. In our own lives, charitable work or simply being conscious of our carbon footprint or how what we do affects others may help that ripple effect to become a tide of positive improvements globally as well as locally.

And from the cosmic intelligence agency:

Now in Virgo the meaning of life is under the microscope. With Jupiter in Virgo, we will find we need to be a bit more discerning and judgmental in many areas of life, it’s about honing a focus and narrowing down Jupiter’s vast field of influence and vision, to something more practical and grounded and it’s perhaps not as simple as buying a Buddha statue for your backyard or sharing spiritual memes on Facebook. Yet something deeper, more authentic and purposeful is being called for. A purifying, an inner cleansing, a clean out of debris and waste  is called for, to help us live up  to standards we now want to reach. It can’t be done with the same 12 year old habits we still cling on to. To be picky and choosy in our endeavors is what this transit calls for and not to expect growth and flourishing in a toxic pond. Face the truth, face the reality!

Jamie covers Gen Xers, Phoenixing (verb!), the Underworld, and service in Jupiter in Virgo and Phoenix-Time for Gen-X: To Serve or Not to Serve. Those born in the sixties may appreciate this!

If we are able to get down to the nitty-gritty, this may be the time of important beginnings.
