DO: Get Your Priorities Straight

Virgo energy is here to help us get serious about our responsibilities and arrange them accordingly. Try jotting down all of your current duties and rank them in order of urgency and go from there.

DON’T: Procrastinate

Virgo season moves us into full-fledged mutable territory. In astrology, mutable signs signal the end of a season, calling on us to finalize our projects. Take your projects seriously, avoid making excuses, and commit to finishing what you're working on now.

DO: Think Before Speaking

Mercury’s influence is strong right now, so pay special attention to the way you communicate. Since this planet governs communication and technology, you’ll want to consider all angles of a conversation before responding to avoid any miscommunication.

DON’T: Be Impulsive

Virgo season is all about sustaining a healthy structure. That said, it's probably not the best time to act on a whim or engage in spontaneous ventures. Before making any rash decisions, weigh the pros and cons first.

DO: Create A Plan

Virgos are all about careful planning, so this season is an ideal time to get your ducks in a row. Construct a well-thought-out to-do list, create practical goals, and implement a plan to reach them.

DON’T: Slack Off At Work

Virgo is ruled by the sixth house of work and routine. This area is being amplified right now, so stay diligent at work. Mitigate distractions with a social media hiatus or turning your notifications off so that you can focus.

DO: Embrace Nature

While your work and structure may feel amplified during Virgo season, it's just as important to ground yourself through nature as a way to christen the mutable earth sign. Take a mindful walk outdoors, buy some flowers, or adopt a new plant.
