A First Step Toward Stability: Virgo New Moon
The Virgo new moon of September 11, 2026 at 5:27 a.m. is like a cautious beginning to bring back some stability, structure and reorganization.
Virgo is a practical earth sign: rational, analytical, diligent, and with a very keen eye for detail. Above all, they are concerned with improving things, processes, and situations. This is also the source of their reputation as a critic.
With this new moon, the eclipse phase officially ends.
What was initiated by the eclipses in August may not be over yet. Developments from this period could continue to unfold until the next eclipse phase in February 2027.

Lots of fluctuating energy around the new moon
This new moon has a few factors that somewhat overshadow the otherwise so precise Virgo energy.
Just one day earlier, on September 10th , a chaotic changeover day took place:
Venus moved from Libra into Scorpio at 10:07 AM.
Mercury left Virgo at 6:21 PM and moved into Libra.
Uranus turned retrograde in the evening.
Without going into every single meaning, it can be summarized as follows:
There was a lot of energy shifting that day, as I shared on my Instagram account: @_kissingthestars_ . This period was very volatile. We could feel overwhelmed, perhaps also have a feeling of not having enough time and being under pressure. Plans could change quickly.

September 5–15: Uranus brings movement
The change in direction of Uranus should be more noticeable from approximately September 5th to 15th , with a peak around September 10th .
Uranus is moving through Gemini through a sign associated with communication, traffic, information and networking.
Around the time of Uranus's change of direction, technology may malfunction, or unexpected changes, delays, or cancellations may occur in traffic (road, rail, and air). These conditions are reminiscent of a Mercury retrograde.
September 9–12: Briefly reduced visibility
Mercury is also approaching an opposition to Neptune, which will be exact on Saturday evening, September 12th .
From September 9th to 12th, it's advisable to take a closer look at important decisions, contracts and agreements, avoid making decisions under time pressure, and allow sufficient time buffers for travel and traffic.
Mars supports the concrete implementation
This new moon also receives support: Mars is in an exact sextile to the new moon. This gives us the energy to tackle concrete changes and implement initial steps.
What would you like to improve, organize, or do more regularly in your daily life? What small step can you implement right now?
🌾 ⋆˙⟡ 🌑 ⟡˙⋆ 🌾
Your New Moon Key Theme
👉 First, read the key topic for your ascendant sign and secondly, the one for your zodiac sign .
👉 Intentions surrounding this key theme are well suited for a new moon ritual, which you should ideally perform on Friday (or within three days after the new moon, until the crescent becomes visible in the sky).
👉 Do you have personal planets or axes between approximately 13 and 23 degrees Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, or Sagittarius ? Then this new moon could be a special invitation for you to consciously make a new beginning.
♈ Aries Rising and Aries
Your new beginning takes place in the 6th house, which encompasses everyday life, routines, work, and health . The care and well-being of your pets also belong to this area of life.
Where would you like to resume or change routines that improve your quality of life and your everyday routine? Perhaps it's about more regular exercise, more rest, a more balanced diet, a different daily structure, or finally organizing certain tasks more easily.
Mars supports this new moon from your 4th house . Strength for your endeavors could therefore come from your home, your family, or your roots. Perhaps a stable home environment is currently helping you to truly implement new habits.
♉ Taurus Rising and Taurus
Your new beginning takes place in the 5th house of joy, creativity, children and self-realization .
When was the last time you regularly had time for something that simply brings you joy? Perhaps you'd like to get back to creative work, take a craft course, or pick up a hobby that has fallen by the wayside in everyday life.
Children can also play a role now: Perhaps new shared leisure activities will emerge, or you might want to redesign something in their everyday life.
Mars supports the new moon in your 3rd house . Conversations, new contacts, siblings, neighbors, or even a course could give you an important impetus.
♊ Gemini Rising and Gemini
The new moon takes place in your 4th house of family, home, and roots .
Perhaps you'd like to reorganize some things at home, declutter, or change routines that haven't been working properly for a while. New routines for cooking, eating, or family life could also be a good time to consider.
It doesn't have to be a major renovation. Sometimes a small, consistently implemented adjustment can make a surprisingly big difference.
Mars, from your 2nd house of personal resources, is providing support. You might be ready to invest time, energy, or even some money in these changes.
♋ Cancer Rising and Cancer
The new moon takes place in your 3rd house of communication, learning, siblings, and neighborhood .
Where could your daily flow of information benefit from a little more order? Perhaps you'd like to structure your communication, get paperwork done, dedicate yourself to further education, or read and learn more regularly again.
Even a conversation with siblings, neighbors, or people from your immediate surroundings could mark a new beginning.
Mars is currently transiting your 1st house and supporting the new moon. You yourself therefore bring a good deal of energy and initiative to get things started. Just be careful not to try to do everything at once.
♌ Leo Rising and Leo
The new moon takes place in your 2nd house of money, values, and personal resources .
A good opportunity to take a closer look: What comes in, what goes out – and what do you want to use your resources for in the future? Perhaps you want to reorganize your budget, review unnecessary expenses, or think about what is truly valuable to you.
It's not just about money. Your time, your skills, and what you yourself have to offer are also part of the second house.
Mars is supporting you from your 12th house . Therefore, the best ideas could arise if you allow yourself some peace and quiet, for example through meditation, and don't try to immediately produce a visible solution.
♍ Virgo Rising and Virgo
This new moon takes place in your 1st house – and therefore directly within your home.
It's about you, your body, your presence, and how you want to position yourself in your life going forward. Perhaps there's a habit, a personal project, or a change you've been wanting to tackle for some time. A Virgo new moon, in particular, serves as a reminder that small, well-chosen changes can have a significant long-term impact.
Mars supports you from your 11th house . Friends, groups, networks, or people with whom you share a common vision could give you a boost in your endeavor.
♎ Libra Rising and Libra
The new moon takes place in your 12th house of retreat, the unconscious, and all that works behind the scenes .
This new beginning doesn't necessarily have to be visible from the outside. Perhaps it's about clearing things up internally, bringing something to a close, or consciously allowing yourself more peace.
What habits are draining your energy in the background? And where might less actually mean more?
Mars is providing support from your 10th house . Interestingly, sorting things out behind the scenes can help you move forward more clearly and powerfully in your career or in an important task.
♏ Scorpio Rising and Scorpio
The new moon takes place in your 11th house of friendships, groups, communities, and future visions . This is the green card of new moons!
Who do you want to surround yourself with? Which contacts do you want to cultivate – and which shared projects or visions deserve more attention?
Perhaps you'd like to join a group, expand your network, or organize a joint project more concretely. Friendships, too, may need to be redefined now.
Mars is supporting you from your 9th house . Further education, travel, new perspectives, or a shared conviction could open new doors for you.
♐ Sagittarius Rising and Sagittarius
The new moon takes place in your 10th house of career, your responsibilities, and your position in the public sphere .

Mars is providing support from your 8th house . Shared resources, support from others, or financial or organizational cooperation could help you implement your plans.
♑ Capricorn Rising and Capricorn
The new moon takes place in your 9th house of higher education, worldview, distant travels, and new horizons .
Perhaps you would like to deepen your knowledge in a particular area, begin an apprenticeship, or delve more deeply into a topic that has long interested you.
A trip can also open up new perspectives – or the concrete planning of one. Sometimes, however, a new horizon simply begins with a book, a course, or an inspiring conversation.
Mars is providing support from your 7th house . Partners, clients, or other important people could play an active and activating role.
♒ Aquarius Rising and Aquarius
The new moon takes place in your 8th house of shared resources, deeper connections, and processes of change .
This could involve practical matters such as shared finances, insurance, debts, contracts, or other obligations. Perhaps now is a good time to organize something that's been on your list for a while.
On a deeper level, it's also about trust: What do I share with others – materially, emotionally, or energetically – and where are clearer agreements needed?
Mars supports you from your 6th house: With a pragmatic approach and concrete steps in everyday life, it may be possible to clarify and reorganize some things.
♓ Pisces Rising and Pisces
The new moon takes place in your 7th house of relationships, partnerships, and important people .
Where could a relationship benefit from more clarity or a new agreement? This applies not only to romantic relationships, but also to business partnerships and other committed relationships between two people.
Perhaps it's about improving processes in interaction, redistributing tasks, or addressing an issue that has been around for some time.
Mars is providing support from your 5th house . Joy of life, creativity, shared activities, or even children could help bring more movement and warmth back into your relationships.
Conclusion: One step at a time.
This Virgo new moon doesn't necessarily represent a big, crystal-clear new beginning . Rather, it signifies a cautious start amidst a phase where things are still in flux.
It is an invitation to look at what can be improved now – and then to take one feasible step after another.

🔭 Preview: Venus goes retrograde
Venus already deserves a brief look ahead.
Since the beginning of September, we have been in the shadow of its upcoming retrograde motion . Venus will be retrograde from October 3rd to November 14th, 2026, passing through Scorpio and Libra.
Issues that arise now concerning relationships, love, money, values, and self-worth could therefore resurface or be examined in the coming weeks. So, not everything needs to be definitively resolved immediately.
The entire process will take until approximately mid-December 2026 .
Are you currently at a crossroads regarding your relationships? Or in financial matters? Both are typical Venusian themes, and these will be examined very closely from a cosmic perspective in the coming weeks.
