The lunar cycle can really help us on our spiritual path. By connecting to the moon’s energy, we can harness her power and develop our intuition. In this Virgo full moon Tarot spread guide, I will talk you through two spreads perfect for this celestial event.
The Virgo full moon occurs in March every year, with the next one falling on the 7th of March, 2023. A full moon is a perfect time for manifesting and renewing your spirit with energy of abundance and release.
Every full moon is in a particular zodiac sign, and it is helpful to follow the lunar cycle when wanting to connect with our spirituality. Because each zodiac has its specific energy, each full moon is different.
The full moon in Virgo brings the energy of hard work and focus. It is a great time to perform Tarot spreads that help you manifest your work goals, grounding yourself in your aspirations.
In this Tarot guide, I will use the Modern Witch Tarot Deck by Lisa Sterle. This is my favorite deck, and I always use it in readings. It is an excellent deck for beginners and expert readers alike, updating the original Rider-Waite imagery for a modern audience.
Virgo Full Moon Tarot Spreads Up Front
I will walk you through two different Tarot spreads for the full moon in Virgo. My favorite is the spread for manifesting goals. This simple four-card spread allows you to focus on your goals and get advice on how to move forward.
I have also included a career spread. As the full moon in Virgo is connected with hard work, it is a great time to reflect on where you are in your career and where you wish to be.
Full Moon In Virgo Tarot Spread for Manifesting Goals
Everyone has goals and dreams in life, but sometimes we may feel as if they are unachievable. However, connecting with the full moon in Virgo can illuminate what you can do to manifest your goals.
The four cards pulled in this spread refer to:
- Card one: What is holding you back
- Card two: What is standing in your way
- Card three: Steps to take
- Card four: Outlook
Let’s walk through this spread, going through each card individually to get to grips with what they reflect.
I am going to perform this reading on myself. Now, I love making jewelry, and I always make rings and bracelets for my friends and loved ones. One of my big dreams is to start my own jewelry business, selling the items I craft myself.
However, I am finding it difficult to get it off the ground. So, what advice do the Tarot cards give me and my jewelry making?
What Is Holding You Back?
The first card reflects what is holding you back from achieving your goals. This refers to internal thoughts and feelings and your behavior.
In this position, I received the Seven of Cups. All about choices and illusions, the Seven of Cups usually appears when you have to make a decision. However, all decisions seem tempting, and you don’t know which one to grab onto!
The Seven of Cups also suggests that some options may not be as good as they seem. Things may appear bright and shiny, but in the long run, their appeal will fade.
I thought it was an interesting card to receive in this position. I have a lot of hobbies and interests. I love my job as a writer and am proud of what I have achieved. However, because I have a lot of passions, it can be difficult to prioritize which one to really put my focus on. My creative writing, my content writing, or my jewelry making?
My choices are holding me back from manifesting my goals.
What Is Standing In Your Way?
The second card pulled refers to what is standing in your way. It refers to external forces and outside influences that are affecting your journey forward.
I received the Two of Pentacles for the second card. This card is about balance, especially regarding work and career. It serves as a gentle reminder to make sure you are balancing your responsibilities. It usually appears in a reading when you have a lot on your plate!
When it comes to my Tarot reading, this card totally makes sense. Starting a business means a lot of work with no short-term reward. I need to balance my work with my jewelry-making, ensuring I am not overdoing it!
Steps To Take
The third card reflects the steps you need to take to manifest your goals. It is an action card and shows you what you can do now to create the future you are dreaming of.
For this card, I received the Empress. This Major Arcana card reflects femininity, abundance, and nurture. It reminds you to take care of yourself and those around you.
When wanting to understand what the Empress means in this position, the word ‘nurture’ feels very important to me. Creating a business means that you have to nurture it, take care of it, and put effort into making it work.
Nurturing also suggests that things take time to grow. When our goals and dreams grow, we must protect them and give them what they need.
Outlook
The last card pulled in this Tarot spread refers to the outlook of your goals. It suggests what might happen if you manifest your dreams and focus on your journey.
I received the Knight of Swords in this position. The Knight of Swords is all about ambition, usually reflecting a desire to succeed. It is a pretty encouraging card to appear in this spread, as it suggests that I will achieve my dreams if I push forward on my journey.
Full Moon in Virgo Tarot Spread for Career Guidance
The second full moon in Virgo Tarot spread I will go through is all about your career. As the full moon in Virgo brings forth the energy of hard work and discipline, it is a great time to reflect on your career and where you are.
The five cards pulled in this spread refer to:
- Habits you need to leave in the past
- You focus right now
- Your potential
- Goals that need to be grounded
- The foundation of your work
Let me take you through this spread with an example reading, looking at how we can understand the different positions of the cards.
Habits You Need To Leave In The Past
The first card reflects habits you need to leave in the past to manifest your career goals. Sometimes, we may fall into bad working habits, affecting our progression.
For this card, I received the Nine of Swords. This is a card of anxiety and stress. It reflects those worries that keep us up at night.
However, the Nine of Swords suggests that these worries may seem bigger than you think. It reflects a time of worrying about worst-case scenarios but of nothing going wrong.
I understand why this card has appeared in this position for me. I am a bit of a worrier, especially regarding work and money. I do find myself getting stressed about my work and career, wondering if I am going in the right direction or not.
Of course, these worries are pretty standard. However, the Tarot is telling me that my anxieties and stress negatively affect my career journey.
You Focus Right Now
The second card pulled reflects your focus right now. It will show you where you are with your career and what you need to put effort into.
I received the Three of Wands for the second card. This card represents planning and looking toward the future. It reflects a time before progression when you focus on what you need to do to get to where you want to be.
In this position, the card can be pretty easy to understand. I am at a time when work is going well, but I must be proactive in planning for the future. I must focus on what is in front of me, figuring out what I need to do to progress.
Your Potential
The third card in this Virgo full moon spread reflects the potential you have regarding your career. It shows you where you can get to if you carry on your path, working with the energy of the previous card.
For this card, I received the Three of Cups. This is a card of celebration and coming together. It usually refers to good times spent with friends and family.
So, how can we understand the Three of Cups in this position? The energy of this card reflects good times, so it is a great card to receive regarding your potential! Regarding work, the Three of Cups suggests that there will be celebrations and accomplishments in the future regarding your career.
Goals that Need to Be Grounded
The fourth card pulled in this reading refers to your goals that need to be grounded. It will reflect things regarding your career that you have been neglecting. It may also reveal how you can turn your dreams into reality.
For this card, I received the King of Pentacles. This card reflects material abundance and money. The King of Wands represents someone who knows how to grab onto opportunities for wealth and success.
In this position, we can understand the King of Pentacles is telling me that I need to manifest his attributes in my own behavior. I wish to save and be financially secure, but these goals are not grounded. It is time to be proactive regarding wealth and material success!
The Foundation Of Your Work
The last card pulled in this reading refers to the foundations of your work. It reveals what pushes you forward in your career and what drives your ambition.
For this card, I received the Sun. I love this Major Arcana card as it has a beautiful message! The Sun is all about positive thinking and success. It reminds us to keep upbeat and always to try to see the good in the world.
I definitely relate to the meaning of the Sun. I always try to be optimistic, knowing that I have the skills I need to achieve my goals.
It is interesting to contrast the Sun with the Nine of Swords. They are pretty different cards. The Sun is all about positive thinking, and The Nine of Swords reflects negative thinking. I have times of worry, represented in the Nine of Swords. But, as the Sun is the foundation for my work, I know that I will be able to overcome my worries and stay positive.
