Today's Golden Full Moon in Virgo

Writer's picture: Shrinam VanamaliShrinam Vanamali

Today our moon shines bright and full in the sign of Virgo, lets talk about that and also to its significance in relation to its position and aspects on the cool night of February 18th 1486.


What does the Moon Represent in our lives?


The Moon or Candra is a karaka or significator of many aspects of our existence. Perhaps principal of which would be:

  • The Mind

  • Emotions

  • Our Mother

  • Mature femininity

  • Large bodies of water.

  • The Queen

And much more...


One of the inherent characteristics each of the representations listed above have in common is their natural tendencies to change fluctuate and flow. The Moon too goes through these constant changes of waxing and waining... The moon's level of manifestation in the sky defiantly aspects these areas of our reality differently, however the primary effect of The Moon's aspect within our life is seen by its placement in our natal chart. Where is your moon placed? With which sign? With which Nakshatra? What house is governed by The Moon's own sign of Cancer? All these questions must first be answered in order to truly explore The Moon's aspect within our reality.




What does the sign of Virgo Represent in our life?

As with all astrological signs, planets, stars and houses there is a multitude of representations, nonetheless here are a few:

  • Organization

  • Structure

  • Clear communication

  • Purity

  • Medicine

  • Care

and much more.


Soon I will be posting new blog posts further exploring each of the signs, planets, houses, stars etc... kindly have patience with my humble endeavors.




What is the resulting effect of Moon transiting through Virgo.

In earnest to truly ascertain the effects of this transit one must read it in relation to ones natal chart. The placement of The Moon, Cancer, Ascendant and more will affect your personal experience of this transit. This is quite logical as we can see that a day may be wonderful for one person and tragic for another. This kind of opposite experience of the same transit is a result of the way it affects the natives of different birth charts differently.


Nonetheless the base experience of this transit will affect most similarly. This transit activates:

  • A structured state of mind.

  • An attraction to clean & organize.

  • A desire to serve or assist others.

  • An almost academic approach to emotions.

  • A tendency to speak ones heart.

  • A day of peace for natives struggling with acute OCD

Now the challenge here is that if ones moon is heavily afflicted or even if ones Mercury or Virgo sign are under pressure the day might be the total opposite of the list above. Because what the transit does is simply activate a particular placement and how that placement will affect you depends on your natal chart. But regardless you will feel it swinging obviously one way or the other.




Who is the Golden Monk in this posts cover?

He is known and loved by the name of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. And today, particularly across West Bengal and Bangladesh, but in truth across the whole world his appearance day is celebrated.

He was a divine Avatar and Troubadour who established the now internationally famous spiritual practice called Bhakti Yoga. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is worshiped to this day as a combined avatar of both the Masculine energy of The Divine and the feminine combined. And it is interesting to note that Mahaprabhu appeared under this very full moon. 536 years ago however this moon was not in Virgo but in Leo.


Leo is governed by the sun, the father, the king and the moon represents, the queen, the mother. We can see here that even the placement of the moon represented this divine personalities nature and reason for appearance. Now being an Avatar of Lord Narayana Himself, we understand that the moon is not aspecting Mahaprabhu with its Karma Karaka Capabilities like it would a conditioned soul, rather it is offering some service intending in a poetic offering to shine some light upon Mahaprabhus internal nature and manifestation.
