We can observe the phases of the moon with the naked eye, making them among the most fascinating astronomical behaviors. Astrology finds them to be deeply rich sources of thought and interpretation. Among the 9 phases – New, Waxing Crescent, 1st Quarter Half, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter Half, Waning Crescent, and Balsamic – the New and Full Moons capture most of the attention. This article will look at the current New Moon in Virgo. It includes a “creation activity” associated with the sign of this New Moon. The idea originates from Jan Spiller’s book: New Moon Astrology: The Secret of Astrological Timing to Make All Your Dreams Come True.
New Moon – Let’s Start Something!
The 2nd Virgo New Moon will occur on September 21st at 29 degrees and 05 minutes. In my Eastern Standard Time zone, it will happen at 3:54 pm. This Moon is known as a Black Moon.
It takes 29.5 days from one New Moon to the next, spending approximately 2 and ½ days in a sign. Just before the New Moon begins, the 3 days of the previous moon phase is the Balsamic Moon. That period is ideal for meditating, reflecting, and releasing; all in preparation for the New Moon.
The first 12 to 24 hours after the New Moon begins is the best time to initiate energy. We will explore each New Moon using Jan Spiller’s suggested actions to take advantage of this period of inspiration.
The energy of the New Moon perfectly suits embarking on a first date, exploring novel experiences, and visiting uncharted places. It’s an opportunity that unfolds each month, inviting you to synchronize your actions with the fresh beginnings. Keeping track of the New Moon allows you to deliberately engage in something new. Take the time to initiate a project aligning with the Moon’s unique energies as it travels through different signs.
What Is The One Thing That Each Zodiac Sign Wishes For?
Black New Moon in Virgo
During the second New Moon in Virgo—known as a Black Moon—the energy deepens around clarity and sacred refinement. Virgo’s earthy precision invites a powerful reset: to clean the slate and commit to mindful habits that honor your values. This rare lunation is ideal for setting intentions around healing, service, and practical steps toward long-term goals. Use this moment to clear distractions, organize your energy, and plant seeds rooted in quiet devotion. Through focused care and reverence for the small things, you align with your soul’s deeper purpose.
This New Moon will occur at 29d05m of Virgo, making its Sabian symbol 30 Virgo. “A false call unheard in attention to immediate service.” Marc Edmund Jones says, “This is a symbol of human responsibility as an immortality of the soul, and of a way of living which has achieved an absoluteness of attitude or understanding and is able in consequence to dramatize a high personal competency in everyday problem solving. Each individual creates his place for himself among his fellows, and thereafter all life tends to protect him in his way of going and all circumstances somehow seem to shape themselves for his convenience and encouragement.” The key word is: SAFEGUARD.
The Numbers of This New Moon
This New Moon happens on 9/21/2025, so the number is 21, which reduces to 3. The Virgo New Moon, illuminated by the energy of the number 3, invites you to express your truth. You want to do so through creative clarity, intentional communication, and purposeful growth. Virgo’s meticulous influence blends beautifully with 3’s gift for vision and articulation. This lunar cycle encourages you to find joy in the details and to build momentum through expressive action. Let your voice carry intention, your routines reflect purpose, and your goals align with your inner wisdom and higher path.
The Major Arcana cards for the number 3 are The Empress (3), the Hanged Man (12), and the World (21). The Virgo New Moon, infused with the energy of 3, invites you into a cycle of creative expansion (The Empress). Additionally, you need to seek soulful surrender (The Hanged Man) and holistic integration (The World). Let this lunation guide you to nurture what matters and align your daily actions with a larger, fulfilling vision. Through Virgo’s discernment, you can refine your purpose and bring dreams into grounded, embodied reality.
Use Tarot for Self-Discovery and Spiritual Growth
The New Moon occurs on the 21st of the month, which reduces to the number 3. This is the number of creativity, self-expression, and purposeful growth. Paired with the grounded energy of Virgo, this lunar moment invites you to align your daily life with inspired intention. The 3 encourages joyful exploration and authentic voice, while Virgo’s earthy wisdom brings clarity, order, and devotion. Use this New Moon to set intentions that nurture both beauty and balance—through healing rituals and heart-led service. And, commit to building a life that is expressive, meaningful, and true to your values.
New Moon in Virgo Wishing (A Tribute to Jan Spiller’s Work)
I deeply appreciate the practical applications of astrology. And one gem is Jan Spiller’s book, “New Moon Astrology: The Secret of Astrological Timing to Make All Your Dreams Come True.” Spiller emphasizes that wishing is not mere idle desire but a conscious act of responsibility. To harness this energy, you must be aware of the New Moon’s timing in your time zone. Once you know it, write your wishes within 24 hours after it becomes new.
Once the New Moon’s energy is underway, it’s essential to take pen to paper. Though digital options abound, handwriting your wishes and intentions is integral to the energy ritual. Spiller advises crafting 3 to 7 wishes, depending on the New Moon and your life circumstances at the time. Aligning your statements with the New Moon’s sign when you write your intentions adds an extra layer of potency.

Wishes/Intentions
Sit down somewhere you can be comfortable, get your favorite pen, and write your wishes/intentions. Wording is very important, and Spiller suggests starting each sentence with, “I wish/want …”.
During this second New Moon in Virgo, a rare chance to refine and recommit, consider the following wishes:
I wish to align my daily habits with clarity, purpose, and inner peace.
I wish to step into greater self-trust through thoughtful planning and grounded action.
I want to deepen connections through acts of service, attentive care, and sincere communication.
I wish to bring order and balance to my routines in ways that support my overall well-being.
I want to cultivate a life of purpose and stability by honoring the details and living with quiet devotion.
After jotting down your wishes, find a meaningful place for to keep them and revisit them periodically. Placing them in a journal or a special box by your bedside is a wonderful choice. Remember that the choice of paper and the pen you use play a role in this process. Being deliberate in every detail is key.
Happy New Moon Wishing!
