Tamerri told Bustle if Virgo appears anywhere in your natal chart, pay attention.
“[The house it appears in] is where you want to be helpful, but also where you are most critical. A good mantra for this new moon is, ‘How can I be my best?’” she says.

She explained you should optimise on opportunities around you and practice self-compassion during this time.
