Your 2024 Virgo Season Horoscope: What Your Zodiac Sign Can Expect From August 22 Until September 22

Here’s what the sun’s trip through the mutable earth sign means for love, money and more

When the sun is still blazing and intense, and we’re squeezing in the last beach or pool days, yet kids are beginning to gather at bus stops, it’s clear that Virgo season has begun. The mutable earth sign’s season is the bridge that brings us from the sweaty, heady days of summertime into the fall equinox, which aligns with the first day of the sun’s trip through Libra. Given that the sign of the Maiden guides us out of one season and into the next, it’s a time for flexibility, tending to your daily routine and wellness and gathering lots of crucial, detailed information — often to be of service to others. Virgo season occurs annually from mid-August to mid-September.  

Because the mutable earth sign is ruled by Mercury, which, in astrology, oversees communication, transportation and technology as well as our thought processes and decision-making, you’ll be even more adept at sharing your brightest ideas, connecting with others, and researching the best game plan for achieving your dreams throughout this cerebral season.  

Here, all you need to know about Virgo season 2024 so you can make the most of it.

When is Virgo season?

Every year, you can count on Virgo season to occur from approximately August 22-23 to September 22-23. In 2024, Virgo season will be in effect from August 22 to September 22.  

What to expect during Virgo season

In general, when the sun takes its annual trip through Virgo, we’re all more likely to adopt a grounded, pragmatic point of view and want to be of service to others, especially by obtaining useful information. Because Virgo is associated with the Sixth House of Daily Routine and Wellness, this is a moment in which we’ll be more compelled to pinpoint self-improvement strategies — and to figure out how we can improve circumstances for those around us. People who come into the world under the sign of the Maiden are thoughtful, analytical, communicative and intent on parlaying their innate intelligence toward helping others. The industrious, precise and intuitive earth sign also excels at self-work, as they’re capable of examining the details we often lose sight of when staying focused on the big picture.

Virgo is also the mutable sign of the earth group, which means they’re adaptable and can easily pivot from one path to the next. In fact, they really enjoy multitasking and hopping from one lane to the next, as long as they’re clear on the why. On the less ideal side, mutability causes the Maiden to struggle with indecision. Know that you can shift gears from plan A to plan B more readily during Virgo season, but that it might take a little more willpower than usual to resolve to cross a specific finish line.  

 

In 2024, Virgo season involves an extra dose of self-reflection

Because Mercury retrograde carries through the first week of the sun’s trip through Virgo, you’ll be more apt to adopt an introspective point of view at the start of the season. Specifically, with Mercury moving back through Leo, the fixed fire sign, you’ll be called to go inward and tie up loose ends related to creative self-expression, leadership abilities and sense of self. Then, from August 28 on, Mercury charges forward in Leo, moving back into Virgo on September 9, so you can begin to plow ahead on whatever it is you’ve been meditating on since the messenger planet’s backspin began on August 4-5.  

Virgo season 2024 brings a surge of initiative-taking energy

While the sun and Mercury move through the sign of the Maiden, two other key planets will be kicking off their journey through cardinal signs: relationship-oriented Venus enters cardinal air sign Libra on August 29, remaining there until September 22, and action-driven Mars enters cardinal water sign Cancer on September 4, remaining there until November 3. The cardinal signs are the big picture, visionary, initiators of the zodiac (the other two are Aries and Capricorn), so following a fussy Mercury retrograde that might’ve had you stuck in limbo on your personal goals, Venus and Mars can help you hit the gas — especially when it comes to endeavors related to creativity, beauty and art, your values and partnerships as well as family matters and your sense of security.   

 

Eclipse season spurs game-changing shifts

2024 features four eclipses, or supercharged lunar events that fuel meaningful change and stir up big emotions. The third eclipse of the year — a lunar eclipse and full moon — strikes on Tuesday, September 17 in Pisces, the mutable water sign known for its vivid imagination, empathy and psychic ability. We haven’t had an eclipse in the sign of the Fish since 2017 — and the last lunar eclipse around this degree of Pisces was on September 16, 2016 — so think back to that period for a sense of the themes you might expect to pop up.  

Here, how Virgo season 2024 will affect you based on your sign. (Be sure to read both your sun and your rising sign if you know it. If you don’t, you can find it in your birth chart or by using this CafeAstrology calculator.)
