10 July – 6 August 2026
Venus moved out of Leo and into Virgo on 10 July 2026 and will transit through Leo, joining Jupiter and the Sun here, until 6 August 2026.
Venus in Virgo puts focus on and gives a lot of relevance to our personal values, ethics and needs. Venus is the planet of love, beauty and money and she is closely linked to our Divine Feminine and self-worth. Virgo is the energy of perfection and it also has a great need for structure, stability and to serve others.
When we combine these two energies, we have a period of time where we are all being encouraged to look at what is important to us; what we really need to feel loved, beautiful and financially secure, and how we can elevate this in some way. Under this influence however, we can however become more intent on helping others to succeed and do well than we do ourselves.
Changing our need to serve to our need to share
Our need to take care of others and be the devoted, helpful, caring and essential “servant” to those that we love and care for can become a very strong drive and something that we feel compelled to almost lose ourselves in.
This energy can of course be used very constructively within all of your relationships so see where you can be more supportive and committed to the needs of the other person or the needs of the relationship itself. We can see what is needed here more clearly but we can also feel that it’s our personal mission to fix and heal this as well.
The challenge with Virgo energy is its need to serve when it really should focus more on sharing. For so long as you feel the need to “serve” another person or thing, you are placing yourself lower than them/it in some way thus messing with your sense of equality and your own personal needs. And you can also feel that it is your job and your job alone to fix a situation or person through your own vision of perfection and how things “should” be done, which can then make you come across as being overly controlling.
Honour yourself first and foremost
I would encourage you during this transit to look to your own values, your own beauty and our own concept of love to see how you can raise this so as YOU are the centre of your Universe and YOU are the one who receives the most loyalty, commitment, love and care. When you honour yourself in this way you are also creating more positive energy to share with others and you will find that you are less exhausted or overwhelmed by what is going on around you and by the needs of others.
Virgo energy also demands perfection and has a massive fear of failure. So, this may also be a time where you don’t feel like you want to aim too high or have too higher expectations just in case you are let down or they don’t come to pass. We are not here now or ever to settle for just what comes our way, or to fear being bigger, more successful or more seen. Therefore any feelings that come up during this time that make you want to shrink a little, or to continue to play it small need to be overcome so as you can not only face any fears you may have here, but also so as you can see for yourself what you are capable of when you push through your fears.
When our love relationships don’t work out, we are not failing.
When we don’t have as much money as we would like to have, we are not failing.
When life goes in a different direction to the one we had planned for it go in, we are also not failing.
WE ARE LEARNING!
So, use this transit of Venus through Virgo to serve yourself in a way that fully supports you. You have already mastered your loyalty and commitment to everyone else, now its time for you to turn that inward and to serve yourself by raising your values so as you can receive all the same devotion, loyalty and care that you so naturally give to others.
You are perfect just as you are and the only true perfection you can ever exercise is in doing your best and being the best version of yourself that you can possibly be. During this transit focus on these things without any judgement, and without comparing yourself to someone else and their journey. We all have very different life paths and soul journeys and no path is better than the other – just different. So, serve yourself, love yourself and see your own imperfect perfections with love and compassion and always remember just how far you have come. Blessings xox
