Streamline and systematize! When the Sun settles into Virgo on Thursday, August 22, your life turns into a four-week efficiency mission. Here is your Virgo season horoscope.
Clean, green and serene? That’s the new trifecta once the Sun shifts out of high-wattage Leo on August 22 and settles into earth sign Virgo until September 22.
Collectively, it’s time to scale back, prioritize and weave efficiency into our lives. How? Start with simplifying the areas of your life you can control (a Virgo speciality!) For example:
Embrace sustainable practices, which may feel refreshing after indulgent Leo season’s lures of decadence. Swap fast fashion for a visit to a thrift shop.
With earthy Virgo ruling the skies, enjoy the harvest of fresh produce—all the better if it’s locally grown by independent farmers and rich with life-enhancing enzymes.
Squeeze some al fresco moments into these last weeks of summer: bike rides to the beach, yoga in the park, lap swims in the saltwater pool.
Give everything a proper review, from your storage systems to your project-management software.

Be kind to yourself if new systems take longer to ramp up
The simplest approach is the best during Virgo season, so put systems in place to minimize stress. Keep life humming with healthy, daily routines.
The Summer 2024 Mercury retrogradeshrouds the first half of Virgo season with the communication planet backpedaling in Leo until August 28. This means your best laid plans could be a formidable match for the tidy Virgo Sun.
Fear not, because Mercury retrograde is considered an optimal time to review systems. And since you can’t really start something new without replacing the old, think of Mercury’s influence as a chance to brainstorm better strategies for areas of your life that have gone haywire. So when the Mercury retrograde is over, your methods can fully activate free of cosmic snags.
Make your daily tasks just a little more pleasurable during Mercury retrograde
Set up a gorgeous (and plant-filled!) environment in your workspace so you get an aesthetic rush when you look up from your computer screen.
Wear clothes that are comfortable but also make you feel radiant—yes, even when dashing off to the gym or to pick up the kids from practice.
Take a few extra minutes in the evening to prepare a nourishing lunch for yourself that you can bring to work the next day—you might just make a couple extra portions of your nightly dinners for this purpose.
With Venus in Virgo (until August 29), self-care is sexy.
Being kind to others, too—selfless Virgo is the sign of service
Where would a random act of kindness make a difference for another? If a moment of choice arises during Virgo season to either be helpful or pretend you didn’t see someone struggling, stop and give ‘em a hand for two seconds. The caring vibes will come back to you in the form of genuine support and connection with the people you see every day.
In Love, giving feels twice as good as receiving during Virgo season
Ask not what your partner can do for you (or ask a little less). Instead, observe ‘em in their natural habitat. Then, find ways to make life both easier and more pleasurable.
Need more support? Ask for it simply and spell out directions clearly. Virgo is the zodiac’s purist and perfectionist, but curb your inner critic. Complaining, nitpicking and fault-finding are the three deadly horsemen of intimacy.
While Virgo season is a fine time to improve relationships, steer conversations in a proactive direction. Sync your schedules, set up a shared calendar and reserve slots for the requisite date nights. Tap into Virgo’s earthy sensuality! Snuggle up in the starlight. Lie in bed talking. Learn how to give each other mind-blowing massages. The best things in love are free!
Your Virgo Season 2024 Horoscope
Below is your sign’s horoscope for Virgo season 2024, August 22 to September 22. You can read for your Sun sign or your rising sign (ascendant).
Every 30 days or so, the Sun visits a new zodiac sign. During this “season” everyone feels the prevailing energy, no matter what Sun sign you were born under. Virgo season begins August 22 and ends September 22 (when Libra season begins!)
Aries (March 19-April 19)
It’s never too late in the season to prioritize your wellbeing, Aries. The Sun beams into Virgo and your sixth house of health on August 22, charging you up for a monthlong self-care cycle. Replace a few of those frozen margaritas with green juices and find an exercise modality that actually inspires you (rather than one that feels like pure drudgery). Socializing could center around more physical activity too, so how about power yoga with your pals before the three-Bellini brunches?
Taurus (April 19-May 20)
The Sun heads into Virgo for a month on August 22, electrifying your fifth house of passion, romance and fame. Take a stroll down the red carpet! Your moves draw major attention during Virgo season and you could attract some well-heeled—and well-known—people into your orbit. Your own star is due to rise, so put your talents on display and strategically self-promote. This is a stellar month for flirting and developing romantic connections; or, if you’re in a relationship, bringing more pleasure and play back to your union. There’s still time for a beach vacay a deux!
Gemini (May 20-June 20)
Bless your nest, Gemini, with design touches worthy of a shelter mag, the company of your nearest and dearest and a few family dinners to boot. On August 22, the Sun blazes into Virgo for a month, the ruler of your domestic fourth house. Home is where your heart shall be during Virgo season. If you’re not happy with where you’ve been hanging your hat, spend time with the real estate listings and get the search underway for a space that feels like your sanctuary.
Cancer (June 20-July 22)
Your gift of gab returns August 22 as the Sun blazes into Virgo and your third house of communication until September 22. You’ll have an easier time articulating your ideas, expressing your emotions, and even putting your thoughts into writing. The social butterfly in you comes shuttling out of its cocoon as well. You’ll feel like you won’t have an evening to yourself during Virgo season, but that’s just how you’ll like it. Save room in your calendar for cultivating new friendships as well as strengthening the old.
Leo (July 22-August 22)
Time to raise your financial IQ! The Sun blazes into Virgo and your second house of money management on August 22. Sure, you can earn it, but you can also burn it. Virgo season is all about budgeting for Leo. You might even go on an austerity plan, or cinch that belt a little tighter. This is not about deprivation, however, but rather creating a sense of security and peace by letting your nest egg build. If you’re on the hunt for more gainful employment, the Sun’s bright beams bring an added blessing to your search and interview process.
Virgo (August 22-September 22)
Paging Virgo! Emerge from beneath that beach umbrella and join the waking world. August 22 begins your official birth month as the Sun heads into Virgo until September 22. You’ve spent the past month healing your heart, rejuvenating your body, and perhaps mourning a loss. During Virgo season, your attention flips from the past to the future. The glass is overflowing with opportunities and you’re ready to make a fresh start. You might even rebrand yourself: what does Virgo look like for 2025 and beyond? Start dreaming, mood-boarding and planning now!
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Your eyes are getting heavy…you’re feeling very sleepy. The Sun drifts into Virgo and your twelfth house of transitions for a month beginning August 22. This is the final phase of your annual solar cycle, a time better used for rest, rejuvenation, and maybe an end of season vacation. On September 22, the Sun will burst into Libra and you’ll be ready to take on the world again. In the days leading up to then, what can you release? From outworn possessions to toxic relationships, to commitments that drag you down, decluttering your life of excess will heal your soul during Virgo season.
Scorpio (October 22-November 21)
It’s getting lonely at the top, Scorpio. The Sun blazes into Virgo and your eleventh house of teamwork for a month beginning August 22. Let the collaborations commence! Begin the search for people whose work ethic and quality control standards you trust. With the technophile vibes of the eleventh house, Virgo season is stellar for developing an app or AI-powered project, selling your gently-used goods online, or giving the dating apps another whirl.
Sagittarius (November 21-December 21)
Your career kicks into high gear as the Sun plants itself in Virgo and your ambitious tenth house from August 22 until September 22. Those end-of-summer barbecues will double as networking events so pack plenty of business cards along with the grillables, and work the crowds. Virgo season is the time to really aim high, Archer, pointing your arrows straight at the target and going after an outsized goal. Polish up your presentation materials as you may be pitching ideas to the industry heavyweights in the days ahead.
Capricorn (December 21-January 19)
It takes money to make money, and with the Sun blazing into Virgo and your entrepreneurial ninth house from August 22 to September 22, you’re ready to invest in your own expansion. Whether you’re starting a business, training to develop more marketable skills or simply taking on greater authority at your current gig, you’ll enjoy a “no limits” approach to your ambitions. Warning: your truth arrows will be sharp but also piercing now. Temper your tough love with tact so your well-meaning messages don’t get lost in translation during Virgo season.
Aquarius (January 19-February 18)
Ooh la la! Your inner siren takes the helm as the Sun grooves through Virgo and your erotic eighth house from August 22 until September 22. A relationship could grow incredibly intimate during Virgo season, but watch out! Jealousy and possessiveness don’t usually trip up your cool-headed sign, but you might fall into the green-eyed monster’s crosshairs now. Steer clear of dangerous liaisons and turn your attention towards people who can really go the distance with you.
Pisces (February 18-March 20)
Turn on your love light! The Sun heads into Virgo and your seventh house of partnerships on August 22, where it will beam bright light on your romantic affairs until September 22. A flirty connection could morph into an exclusive relationship. You might decide to clean house of the summer flings and make room for someone with lasting potential. Already attached? Find creative ways to blend your energy, like hosting an epic Labor Day bash or even starting a small side business together as a couple.
