On February 28 at 11:38 a.m. (EST), the Moon grows full in the sign of Virgo -- perfectionist, exacting, discriminating, analytical. Full moons signify the completion, culmination of what may have been initiated during the previous New Moon in Aquarius which encouraged us to break away, get unstuck and establish a new "norm". During the New Moon phase Neptune and Chiron finally perfected their long awaited conjunction. Their conjunction remain strong and influential for this Full Moon in Virgo.

This full moon occurs at 10 degrees of Virgo and opposes Jupiter while the Sun blends energies with Jupiter. The heart (Moon) may still be meticulously processing (Virgo) what might have transpired over the past two weeks, but the soul (Sun) has begun to hope and dream of the possibilities (Jupiter). In light of the healing/release (Neptune-Chiron conjunction) that's occurred and continuing to work with us, there is now a "newer", improved (or on the mend to become an improved) version of the self with room to rebuild and continue becoming. Elsewhere in the sky, Venus (love/money) grows closer to giving Uranus (surprises/unconventional) a great, big kiss. Expect the unexpected, especially with regards to relationships or finances. Be open to applying unique solutions to common issues or finding just what you need in the most unlikely places.

For me, this Full Moon falls in my natal 12th house (subconscious/hidden) but as a Virgo-rising, also influences my natal 1st house (self/potential) and as a Cancer-Sun, my solar 3rd house (thinking/talking). During this past New Moon phase, I continued to make strides in breaking away from an old routine and establish a new way of conducting my everyday. This Full Moon phase may be spent fine-tuning the changes I've made.
