Okay, so today I tried out this “new moon in Virgo tarot spread” thing. I’ve been feeling a bit all over the place lately, and with the new moon in Virgo, I thought, why not give it a shot? Maybe it’ll help me get some clarity.
First, I set the mood. I lit some candles, put on some chill music, and tried to clear my head. Then I grabbed my tarot deck. I shuffled the cards while thinking about what I wanted to get out of this reading. I don’t really know what I am doing, but I guess it is worth a try. I cut the deck into three piles and then put them back together. This is how I always do it; no reason.
I laid out the cards according to this spread I found. It was specifically for the new moon in Virgo, which apparently is all about getting organized and setting intentions. I also learned that it can also be interpreted as the High Priestess is silent, still, wise, and mysterious, which made me feel like I should be meditating as well. I just followed it and see what I could get. I read some stuff online, and it said this Virgo new moon falls in decan 2 or 3 or something, which is linked to some other tarot cards, I guess. Not sure what that means, I just went with the new moon thing.
Anyway, here’s what happened:
- Card 1: What area of my life needs more structure? I got the “Five of Pentacles”. I think it means I’m feeling a bit lost and insecure, especially about my finances. Yeah, that’s pretty accurate.
- Card 2: What habit should I focus on releasing? This one was the “Seven of Swords”. Maybe it means I need to stop doubting myself and being sneaky about my problems. I do tend to avoid dealing with things directly.
- Card 3: What new habit should I cultivate? I pulled the “Page of Cups”. This felt like a sign to be more open to my emotions and maybe explore my creative side. I have been feeling a bit numb lately.
- Card 4: What action can I take to improve my well-being? “The Emperor” showed up here. I guess it means I need to take charge of my life and set some boundaries. Makes sense, I have been feeling like I’m just drifting along.
- Card 5: A message from the universe for this new moon. This one was “The Star”. It felt hopeful, like a reminder to stay optimistic and believe in myself. I needed that.
After the reading, I took some time to think about the cards and what they might mean for me. I don’t know if tarot is “real”, but it did give me some things to think about.
Based on the cards, I decided to set some intentions for this new moon cycle:
- Start a simple exercise routine – nothing crazy, just something to get me moving.
- Track my spending and make a budget. Gotta get my finances in order.
- Spend at least 30 minutes a day doing something creative, like writing or drawing.
I also repeated this phrase I found: “I align with my highest destiny and let go of all tension in my body.” I said it out loud, took a deep breath, and imagined myself aligning with my best self. Then, I did a strong exhale and felt a bit more relaxed.
Overall, it was a pretty interesting experience. I feel a bit more grounded and focused now. We’ll see if these intentions stick, but for now, I’m feeling optimistic about this new moon cycle.
