Virgo Yearly Horoscope 2015

Areas of Expansion in 2015 for Virgo:

 Spirituality, Charity, Private Life, Personality, Independence, Body Image

Your Virgo 2015 Horoscope Jupiter Profile points to areas of life that are destined to expand and grow.

Until August 11, 2015, your spiritual world, compassion, private life, and tolerance continue to expand and grow. Matters from the past are magnified in your life now. You tend to sort through the attitudes that serve you well, and the behaviors that need to go in order for you to grow and improve. This influence began in July, 2014.

You may be searching for a deeper meaning to your life during this cycle, and your levels of compassion and sympathy raise a a bar or two.

This is generally a warm, protective cycle, although with Jupiter in the background in your chart, there may be some sense that you are not truly living or experiencing your life to the fullest. Your close personal relationships tend to be private and possibly involve some sacrifices. There could be complicated family matters to deal with. There can be a lot of energy poured into serving or supporting family members or into domestic chores. For some of you, there can be work on a project in relative solitude or privacy.

Potential negatives: Escapism. You might often be tempted to escape your everyday responsibilities and challenges, and should avoid reliance on drugs, drinking, or other "glamorous" forms of escape.

Jupiter's influence is generally considered positive, and it is, ultimately. However, it acts to magnify the area of the chart that it affects, and at times it can be uncomfortable if you are having difficulties in this area. In your case, if you are lonely or if you feel helpless, and if you have troubles facing your past, then this influence can heighten these issues. Ultimately, it's for the good. The cosmos asks you now to surrender some of your attachments, and to surrender to the unknown. Releasing control is necessary. Building your faith is the work you are doing now. While your tendency is to play a supportive role to others, if taken too far, you will need to draw some boundaries when it comes to your energy and time. February and August in particular can bring some strains on health, pressures in a partnership, heavy weight of responsibilities and overload, and time restraints or challenges with a romantic partner or children.

There is stronger joy in being of service to others, but do be careful that you take care of yourself as well.

However, for the most part, you are likely to feel emotionally secure and supported during this cycle. Your perceptions heighten. Your ability to make sacrifices for others increases, and you might build your confidence in yourself as you help and support others. Until June is an especially strong period for strengthening ties with a partner, for intimate matters, for support, and for getting into better touch with your inner world and deeper feelings.

From August 11th onward, your personality, image, body image, and confidence in yourself begin to expand to new levels with Jupiter now in your sign until September 2016. You are seeing whole new possibilities. Your vision of life is panoramic.

If you've done your inner "work" well, this can be an especially rewarding period. Your confidence in yourself and faith in the world are growing exponentially. Freedom is something you seek, but be wary of the costs of freedom when it's pursued without necessary attention to responsibilities.

You are more willing to have new experiences and to rid yourself of those things that have been holding you back from truly living and owning your life.

Expanding your horizons through higher learning or travel might also figure strongly. This is a time for aligning your behavior with what you believe is right. You are taking more "me" time, which is in fact long overdue.

This is also a strong time for family and home life. Some of you could be especially proud of your role in the family, or you could be feeling supported and backed by your loved ones. This comes at the same time as the beginning of a Saturn transit to your home and family sector, so that there may be some restrictions on the homefront as well. There is generally good energy for bringing more structure and simplicity to the family and home now.

You are seeking out a new beginning - a fresh start, of sorts - and your desire to do right is especially strong. Work or projects that you have been working on in private or behind the scenes may now begin to pay off. There is less focus on serving and helping others now, perhaps because this is no longer as necessary (for example, a child can go off to college, or even the end of a relationship that took up a lot of your energy and resources, for which you are now enjoying some level of freedom from), and now you can put some of your personal interests on the front burner.

You won't feel like sitting around during this period of your life. You are hungry for new experiences. Everyday stresses that may have frustrated you in the past now seem almost inconsequential, as your vision is lifted above the mundane. As such, your ability to manage stress and pressure increases. You are more tolerant in your attitude towards others, and you're considerably more confident about expressing the playful, creative, and fun side to your personality.

October forward is especially strong for creative self-expression, finding yourself/a voice through creative projects and communications, a more empowered feeling in general, and romantic experiences. New ventures can be especially successful, but so can reviving projects already in progress. Your attitude towards life is changing and your perspective is entirely different - you're seeing opportunities where you previously saw obstacles. You are less guarded about what you say and do, and thus feel freer to express yourself.

Potential negatives: Weight gain, pompous behavior, restlessness, over-confidence, wastefulness, and excesses in general. See to it that these things don't ruin an otherwise excellent period. As well, in your desire to start over, watch that you don't blind yourself to responsibilities.

There might also be times, especially in September and early November, when others may be put off or threatened by your newfound displays of freedom and independence, or when you have troubles with self-discipline, budgets, and limits. Financial matters can also weigh on you. Otherwise, this can be a time of opportunity. You might choose to pursue a hobby or creative activity with great passion. There can be a strong sense of release and freedom from previously limiting, rigid, or stifling conditions.

Areas of Contraction and Lessons in Simplicity: 

Communications, Daily Life, Family, Home

Your Virgo 2015 Horoscope Saturn Profile points to areas of contraction, restriction, and necessary "slimming down" in order to test for stable foundations. There are always areas of life that require more simplicity. Tests may be part of the picture as you learn that life with only growth and expansion can run away with itself.

From June 14 to September 17, 2015, the areas of your life that requires a "back to basics" approach are again those associated with the sector of your chart that rules communications, learning, and local transportation. There may be tests of sorts in these areas of life, as if the universe is checking that the foundations are strong. Things built on weak foundations may very well crack under the pressure of these tests. Those that are strong will endure and strengthen.

This influence began October 5th, 2012, and is with you for part of this year, from June 14th to September 17th. This is the final haul! It can be felt most strongly earlier or later in the cycle, depending on whether you were born earlier or later in the sign of Virgo.

Challenges can come to your communications. You may feel pressure to produce ideas, and to make them work in the "real world". A certain somberness in your outlook may be characteristic of this phase, as it may be a time of worry. It may seem like acquaintances and sometimes siblings are blocking your growth in some manner, and these relationships may be strained as a result. Although you have a desire to make contacts, you are now rather preoccupied with learning or other mental projects, and you may view idle chit-chat as a waste of time. You may feel an unusual pressure to structure your time and effort, and to cut out communications that seem unnecessary. You may at times feel rather overwhelmed by such things as errands, red tape, and other such day-to-day "disruptions". By the end of the transit, however, you will have ideally gained a greater depth of understanding, having focused on information and communication that you really can use to feel more effective in the world.

There is a great need now to structure your life by way of schedules, managing daily details and your time more effectively. There can be some problems with local transportation -- getting from point A to point B. There can be some restlessness or an urge to get out and about, but you might feel weighed down by your daily responsibilities.

However, this is also a time of increased practicality and esteem. You are more reliable than usual. You procrastinate less.

At the tail end of 2014, Saturn entered Sagittarius. Carrying over into 2015, this transit will affect those of you born early in the sign of Virgo only (approximately August 23-September 3, or Virgo Ascendant of 0-11 degrees).

Until June 14th, and then from September 17th onward, The areas of your life that require a "back to basics" approach are home, family, your roots, domestic activities, living conditions, and security. There may be tests of sorts in these areas of life, as if the universe is checking that the foundations are strong. Those things built on weak foundations may very well crack under the pressure of these tests. Those that are strong will endure and strengthen.

This influence began December 23rd, 2014, and is with you until December, 2017. It can be felt most strongly earlier or later in the cycle, depending on whether you were born earlier or later in the sign of Virgo.

Tests can come to your family life this year. The responsibilities and demands of domestic life can run high. There can be a feeling that others are not as sympathetic to you, or that they leave you alone to your own defenses during this period. In truth, you are learning how to stand on your own two feet, as well as to meet your responsibilities and to fix whatever it is that you have let slide in the past. At the end of this cycle, you'll have built a stronger foundation. You'll see yourself and your family more clearly, and your expectations will be more realistic as a result.

You can be filled with desire, or circumstances create a need, for more structure in your home life.

In April-May and then in November, the challenges of this position are more likely to be felt. There could be issues to deal with regarding financial and emotional support, money owed, and partnerships. There could be the need to parent or finance someone (parenting a parent for example), and possibly repairs to deal with. A relationship may be strained with increased attention and responsibility to family or around the home, for example, or for some, family may be disapproving of a relationship.

Jupiter in your sign from mid-August forward can significantly lighten burdens in these areas, however.

This is also a time for the very beginnings of a business project for some, and especially for those with a Virgo Ascendant. This is a career building stage. It's vital that you get your home and personal life into order so that you can move forward feeling rooted and secure.

Areas of Excitement, Innovation, Independence, and Speed: 

Intimacy, Self-Knowledge, Finances

Your 2015 Virgo Horoscope Uranus Profile points to areas of your life that seem to speed up so that you are able to take some risks, innovate, and revolutionize.

In March 2011, you entered a lengthy cycle in which your intimate world and shared resources can be unpredictable and unusual, but also inspiring and exciting. This influence is with you again, throughout 2015 and beyond (until March 2019).

Your intimate life and support systems from others are stimulated and opened. These areas of life can be the wild card area of life, but also highly stimulating and innovative. You may be far more experimental when it comes to opening yourself up on sexual and intimate levels. There can be experimentation in your relationships for some of you; for others, there may be less interest in, or possibly some fear of, intimacy right now. You do need to watch for over-confidence with others who might squander your shared resources, however.

You will be learning a lesson in detachment during this cycle - sudden changes in the support you receive from others can force you to become more independent financially. Prepare yourself for fluctuations by settling as many debts as you can. Watch for gambling or risk-taking with money (and a partner who may be doing same) especially in March. Watch your heart as well during these periods, as there can be some problems with intimate partners who can come and go and leave your head spinning. You may be attracting people who have different ideas about the intimacy of your relationship than you do. You might also be dealing with family responsibilities that can be draining in early May and October.

A better period for excitement, innovation, intimacy, and courage is up until June. New insights into your inner workings can be had now, and your intimate life can open up.

Areas of Change, Purging, & Transformation:

 Love Affairs, Children, Creativity, Recreation, Finances, personality, Partnership.

Your 2015 Virgo Horoscope Pluto and Moon's Node Profile reveals areas of life in which change and transformation take place. It's a time for "out with the old, in with the new".

Love affairs can bring intense personal transformations again this year and beyond. This is a long-term influence that has already been present in your life, and will be with you for many years to come. You may be meeting people who turn you inside out, and through experiences with them, you learn more about your own power over your life. While experience is good - it builds character - protect your heart and your body by employing some caution with new people in your life.

October forward is strong for more enduring and rewarding personal relationships. More challenging periods are possible in February, March, and May, when there can be sudden events or circumstances that change the direction of, or put a strain on, your love life.

In 2015, your finances are evolving in important ways. You will be called upon to strike a balance between your own needs for security and comfort and the same needs of other people, such as those of a significant other. You are learning to ask for what you deserve, and to take charge of your earnings. With the North Node moving through your finance sector most of the year (until October-November), you are called upon to take charge of your resources.

As well, and especially in the last quarter of the year, your personality and your partnerships evolve in important ways. Your definitions of "me" and "you" are transforming. Issues of personal courage, confidence, and independence come to the fore. Personal appearance, your body, and your image become especially important. For some, marriage or divorce will be an issue. For most, carving out a personal identity that includes a significant other who furthers their own personal growth will come into strong focus. The North Node in your own sign from October-November forward points to a real need to learn how to rely on yourself, which ultimately will bring you joy and opportunity. Work on balance between independence and partnership, particularly around the eclipses in March (partnership eclipse) and September (personality eclipse).

Your Planetary Ruler in 2015: 

Mercury, your ruler, travels quickly through the signs, covering a lot of ground in any given year. When Mercury is in your own sign, more power to you. In 2015, this occurs from August 7-27. This occurs around the same time that Jupiter is newly in Virgo. Even so, Venus is retrograde during this period, so while you're strong when it comes to decisions about personal goals at this time, love and money matters require some backtracking.

Mercury's retrograde periods are natural times for reflection, reassessment, and introspection, and these occur in 2015 from January 21-February 11, May 18-June 11, and September 17-October 9. Occurring all in Air signs and your practical/material sectors, these periods require reassessing your financial and professional affairs.
