It’s easy to sail through life during the summer months, doing whatever you feel like, whenever you want. And, naturally, that means stuff on your to-do list is going to slide. Because, hello, when there’s a choice between doing laundry and hitting the beach, kicking back on the sand wins every time.

But now, the new moon in Virgo is here to shake things up. The astological event is going down on September 6, 2021, and it’ll push you to get your sh*t together across all areas of your life, according to Donna Page, a certified astrologer in Atlanta.

Of course, there’s more to it than that. Here’s what else your zodiac sign can expect from the new moon in Virgo.

What does the new moon in Virgo mean for your sign?

Astronomy recap: The moon has different phases, and a new moon happens when the earth lines up with the sun. That makes the moon look all but invisible from where you're standing. There are usually 12 new moons a year, and each one is synched up with a different astrological sign.

Because this new moon is in the sign of Virgo, it’s all about getting your life together. You’ll want to get your work, house, laundry, workout plan—everything—in order again. That leaky pipe you’ve been ignoring for months? You’ll finally get motivated to call a plumber. The yoga class you’ve repeatedly bailed on? You’ll be back in the mix—namaste.

Uranus is linked up with this new moon, which will make you turn an eagle eye to your career. How can you get a better job without having to do a ton of extra work? Even though you’re big on change RN, if switching gigs right now feels like too much effort, you’re just not going to do it.

At the same time, Venus is sending harmonious vibes for your relationship. You just want to hang out with your S.O. with little to no drama. Is that too much to ask? Nope. So, plan on a quiet evening of Netflix and chill—it’ll feel all kinds of good.

The new moon will impact all zodiac signs, but Page says Virgo, Pisces, and Sagittarius will feel it the most.

How will the new moon in Virgo impact the rest of your year?

For starters, you’ll be a little less stressed. After all, letting your to-do list build up can make you feel frazzled, even if you don’t realize it in the moment. Also, getting back into your normal ~groove~ of eating well, tackling projects at home, and exercising regularly will just make you feel good.

At the same time, taking a temperature check of your work life will help you see what you can—and can’t live—with. Even if you’re not ready to make a career move this second, you’ll start down the path of looking into other opportunities that can pay off big time in the future.

Finally, it seems minor, but making a point to have a quiet evening at home with your partner will help you see how much you really value hanging out together, just you two. (Bonus: It’ll only bring you closer in the long run.)

When is the next new moon?

The next new moon is on October 6, 2021 in the sign of Libra. During this new moon, you’ll have a serious urge for a li'l more peace and harmony in your life.

Until then, enjoy the feeling of getting your life in order. It’s so overdue.
