Virgo Season: August 23 – September 22
Have you felt called to clean, declutter or organize in the last couple of weeks?
Personally, I spent 6-hours deep cleaning my entire house on Labor Day (while blasting Taylor Swift in my headphones – yes, I’m a lowkey Swiftie 🙃)
Maybe that calling is a regular occurrence for you, or, maybe you’re tapped into the energy of Virgo season!! I LOVE this time of year (I’m a Virgo Moon), and from a business standpoint, September be POPPIN’!
If you’re not into Astrology, hear me out…Virgo Season aligns with Back to School Season and the transition into Fall. It’s a period that has socially taught us that it’s time for a fresh start.
Remember how excited you used to get to go school shopping, buy new markers, color code your planner and pick out your perfect first day of school outfit? Very Virgo of you 😉
If business feels slow right now or if you’ve been lacking the motivation to move forward on your ideas lately, approach this month as a new beginning.
Virgos are well known for their attention to detail. Ask yourself, what part of your business or creative process could use a tune-up? What systems do you need to audit? Are there any gaps in your workflows or client experience?
Virgo energy is analytical. Set aside some time to analyze the results you have achieved in the past. Do you know what has worked well for you? How about what hasn’t worked? What offer can you refresh? Are there any offers or ideas that you can let go of?
The one we all know… Virgos are the most organized sign. Are you running your business day-to-day right now, or do you have a plan? September is the time to plan out Q4 (holiday sales, taking time off, launching offers in the new year). It’s time to plan ahead instead of living in a day-to-day mindset.
Next, SERVICE. Virgos are known for their desire to be of service, which as business owners and creative souls, we can ALL relate to. Take yourself back to the drawing board and reflect on what you offer and who you serve. Do your current offers and ideal clients light you up on the inside? Is your work purpose-led?
Lastly, Virgos are all about self-care. In a season that gets quite hectic, there’s an emphasis on resting and rejuvenation. What’s one thing you can do for yourself THIS WEEK to relax your nervous system?
Lately, my favorite form of self-care is curling up in bed with a romance novel while my phone sits in a separate room 🤪
In short, I’m no astrology expert, but we can all learn a LOT from Virgos, and I think it’s one of the most aligned signs to the entrepreneurial experience. I also firmly believe in running your business (and living your life) in alignment with the seasons and the stars.
The only way to grow a business you LOVE is to do it with intention, whatever that looks like for you.
