These 5 Meditations Will Keep You Grounded During Virgo Season

Now that the fiery Leo season has brought forth our boldest selves and given us the confidence we need to go after our deepest desires, Virgo season is fast approaching to bring us back down to Earth — whether we're ready for it or not. Just as Leo season ends, Virgo season is set to begin on Aug. 23 and will stick around until Sept. 22. Virgo is an Earth sign whereas Leo is a fire sign — so for many of us, the next few days will feel as though someone pulled the plug on the stereo to break up the dance party that was Leo season. Virgo isn't here to end the fun, though — it's just here to remind us to keep our feet firmly planted on the ground and get back to work. It runs the risk of being a slightly stressful time, so we could probably all benefit from some meditations for Virgo season 2019 to help us get through it.

Bustle talked to astrologer Lisa Stardust about Virgo season to find out more about the ways in which the sign will affect us so that we can prepare ourselves with some meditations to combat anything too overwhelming. According to Stardust, "Virgo season will force us to seek the truth and divine wisdom within to make clear decisions," — an opposite energy to Leo season which had us looking outward and shining bright without overthinking anything. "Anxieties may come to a head, forcing us to reconcile tensions within through meditation," Stardust went on to say. "Taking time out from the daily grind will allow us to think clearer and make better decisions." So, here are a few meditations that are perfectly suited for Virgo season, to keep you feeling balanced and positive as the seasons shift and your mentality does too.
