New Harvest Moon in  Virgo - Saturday 23 August (2025) by Sue Cartwright, Spiral Leaf


New Harvest Moon


Crescent moon, rising soon after sunset;

A sliver of bright light, up in the distance;

Wane to wax, leading up to Autumn harvest;

As days start to shorten and nights draw in.


New Harvest Moon


Comfort can be found in order and clarity;

In being organised, smoothing irregularities;

In being tolerant of imperfections felt in life;

Knowing all is well, trusting your inner Self.


New Harvest Moon


At the close of the first half year cycle;

A fluid, calming energy brings innovation, miracles;

Speak dreams into material, ethereal, beautiful;

Live the life you want to live, make fear immaterial.


New Harvest Moon


Tune into Virgo's energy for earthy mindfulness;

Focus on reflection and higher consciousness;

Celebrate your best traits, your loving personality;

Acknowledge your essence of unique originality.
