- Career/Life Path
- Responsibilities, Recognition, & Accountability
- Friendship & Social Life
- Causes & Ideals
- Happiness Goals
Your Virgo 2025 Horoscope points to areas of life that are destined to improve, expand, and grow.
Until June 9th, Jupiter is a guest at the top of your solar chart, reaching the peak, and it helps you shine! Your ambitions, career, business goals, and reputation continue to grow and develop. Your talents and skills are recognized now like rarely before. Much of the hard work you’ve put in begins to pay off and reaps the rewards – or at the very least, it’s recognized.
This influence lasts a little over a year: from May 25th, 2024, to June 9th, 2025. It’s already under way as you begin the year 2025.
You are in the limelight in some way during this cycle. You could find yourself in a position that truly suits you, and you take great pride in your work. For some, more prestige or a higher social standing is part of the picture. You can be quite charismatic in a position of authority or responsibility.
Other possibilities depend on your current life circumstances: advancement in achieving an important goal can occur at this time in your life. There can be significant enhancements to your reputation or public image. Perhaps most importantly, you have more faith in your goals and aspirations during this period of your life.
Although it’s an excellent period for expansion and recognition on a professional level–and you should take advantage of it–choose your projects carefully. It’s best to take on only what you can handle. Watch also for gossip or mishandling of information–be wary of situations that could easily get blown out of proportion or misunderstood.
For the most, though, it’s a booster period for your reputation or position. It can be a time of significant progress in the outer world, a fortunate change in status, and/or increased recognition.
People more readily or openly recognize your accomplishments now. Home life, family, and domestic matters could connect closely with your career during this period. You feel more excited about achieving your longer-term goals and ambitions. Family life can elevate and improve during this period. You might repair a relationship with a parent or boss.
It’s undoubtedly a time when believing in yourself, your competency, and your ability to take the lead opens up opportunities for you. The desire for more comfort, safety, security, and warmth in your personal life can motivate you to reach your highest potential. It can be a time of a promotion or a position of leadership. Or, your family comes to the attention of the public. Working from your home can figure strongly.
You might also bring more heart to your work or be recognized and esteemed for your personal life or family values. Your career could be more emotionally rewarding or focusing on home or family matters during this period.
In April and early May, there can be challenges balancing your daily routines, relationship, and career goals. A partner or significant person in your life could be working at cross purposes with your ambitions or vie for your attention, competing with your special interest in your career or outside responsibilities. Your stronger need to pour more energy into your relationships can impact your performance. The challenge is finding a balance between the two worlds instead of pushing or rebelling against either. Free yourself of those things holding you back from success, but do so prudently. Consider also that you could be pushing too hard in too many different life departments.
Fortunately, you’re likely to feel more motivated and supported in May, especially. There can be a strong feeling of being backed and respected, which can certainly motivate you to work harder or to enjoy your work more fully.
You’ll see definite improvements in your life as you let go of unhealthy expectations and pressures. You more readily find support, backing, or guidance, and you might stumble upon a helpful person or project at this time that can change your life. Taking the lead can benefit you tremendously now.
From June 9th onward, your connections to others, group associations, and friendships expand and grow. This influence lasts a little over a year, and it’s a pleasant, supportive transit that only comes around approximately every 12 years.
During this cycle (lasting from June 9th, 2025, until June 30th, 2026), social and happiness goals receive a boost–it’s now the time to feel considerably more confident about the future.
You’re gaining confidence in your ability to set plans in motion that will allow you to accomplish some of your most cherished hopes and dreams.
Happiness goals are the focus–and it feels good to plan, enjoy, and dream.
This transit can seem to fill you with new ideas, dreams, and hopes. You are planting seeds, so to speak, aiming to get started on projects that will reap the rewards in the future. While this can be exciting, try not to take on more than you can handle. Your vision is quite optimistic, and you might overestimate what you can do down the road! However, one or two projects can be inspiring and also quite innovative. Remind yourself that more is not necessarily better and that sometimes “less is more.”
With more contact with others, whether it’s about an expanded real-life group of connections or online, you are sure to come up with new ideas and gain inspiration. Others can point you in new directions. There can be a cause that you work towards enthusiastically. A new creative or romantic pursuit can excite you and bring you into contact with interesting, helpful people. Business income should increase.
It can also be a time of budding friendships and/or group involvement. New people may come into your life and seek your companionship, or existing friendships refresh and enhance.
Opportunities to advance or new learning experiences can come through associates, friendships, and networking. For some, this can be a vital time for an internet business.
People can be friendlier than usual to you, and you may benefit from group connections or mingling. You are popular within groups, and circumstances have a way of turning in your favor. Your curiosity about others or the community awakens or blossoms. During this life phase, you can accomplish wonders with your initiatives or causes that you believe in.
You’re also in great shape to enjoy the fruits of your recent labor, promotion, and successes. You display more tolerance of others, and you’re inclined to take interest in alternative subjects.
Potential challenges: Over-emphasis on activities that take you away from your practical responsibilities, too often.
However, for the most part, you are likely to take advantage of this period in your life to expand your social life and friends base and dream up exciting new paths for the future. It’s also a powerful time to lead a group, organize, and start up a new endeavor, especially an innovative one.
On another level, your home life can become friendlier or more unconventional. Living with a friend is possible for some, and for others, a friend can become like family. Nurturing elements in your social life can be prominent. Reaching out beyond your personal circle can certainly open doors to you and bring joy into your life during this cycle. Others can point you in new directions. There can be a cause that you work towards enthusiastically, possibly related to family.
You’re more likely to encounter some of the more challenging side of this transit in June, October, and December. Intimate relationships or increased need for privacy or exclusiveness can be impacting friendships. The answer may be to simplify or cut back on something, even if this is not the easiest choice. There can be difficulties, possibly power struggles or concerns about betrayal or boundaries, with someone. The desire to enjoy friendships and sharing is with you, but something or someone may hold you back or temporarily stand in your way. The key now is to look for ways to simplify your life, remembering that quality is more important than quantity in almost all areas of life.
A booster transit supporting these efforts occurs in late August and early September, when relationships can be more forward-looking and growth-oriented. Harmonizing through an increased focus on shared ideas, dreams, and aspirations can figure strongly. It’s a good time for opening yourself to new contacts or for more thoroughly enjoying collaboration, networking, and sharing with others.
Areas of Contraction and Lessons in Simplicity: Negotiating, Partnering
- Partnerships
- One-to-One Connections
- Intimacy
- Shared Finances & Debts
Your Virgo 2025 Horoscope points to areas of contraction, restriction, and necessary “slimming down” in order to test for stable foundations. There are always areas of life that require more simplicity. Tests may be part of the picture as you learn that life with only growth and expansion can run away with itself.
Until May 24th and from September 1st onward, the areas of your life that require a “back to basics” approach are associated with the sector of your solar chart that governs close personal relationships, such as marriages and other committed partnerships, long-term associations, open enemies, negotiations, agreements, and contracts. There may be tests of sorts in these areas of life, as if the universe is checking that the foundations are strong. Things built on weak foundations may very well crack under the pressure of these tests. Those that are suitable will endure and strengthen.
This influence runs from March 2023 until 2025/2026. It’s weaving in and out this year.
You’re likely to feel it most strongly earlier or later in the cycle, depending on whether you were born earlier or later in the sign of Virgo. This year, it will influence those born from approximately September 6th onward and with a Virgo Ascendant of 14-30 degrees the most. Those Virgos born earlier than September 6th or with a Virgo Ascendant of 13 degrees or less have moved beyond the strongest phase.
For those of you in committed partnerships, there can be some strains on your bond during this cycle. For example, a partner might feel like a “heavy” in your life–perhaps even a dark cloud hanging over you at times–and any feelings of restriction that you feel or have felt in this area of life magnify in your mind. A partner might instead seem cautious, distant, critical, or defensive.
It would help if you opened your mind to the possibility of someone providing you with valuable life lessons – about traditions, simplifying your life, and responsibilities. In other words, do not automatically discard what they have to say. Take your time on this one. If, however, a partner is challenging you to the point of breaking, then steps need to be taken to improve the situation.
For those of you who are not in committed relationships, it is less likely that you’ll enter a new long-term partnership or commitment rashly. Some of you might begin one but will do so quite cautiously and carefully. Some of you might be attracted to older or more mature and established people as partnership “material.” This can be a make-or-break period. If you decide to commit to someone, it’s likely to be a long connection.
Those of you who are single might nevertheless feel some angst or pressure. This lack in your life might suddenly magnify, and it can feel like a gaping hole. You might lose hope, temporarily, that you’ll ever find a robust and committed partnership. Feelings of loneliness may run deep this year, but the universe is sending you a message through this experience regardless, awakening you to a need. In time, you will find ways to satisfy this need. Patience is usually necessary during Saturn’s transits.
Some of you could be committing this year. A relationship can encounter some tests or complications, but if it’s strong, it will weather the storm, and you could decide to take it to another level. If not, remember that relationships lost during a Saturn transit to your partnership sector, if at all, may have needed to end. This is a time when you may be seeing the less flattering side of others, and through your relationships, of yourself as well!
Others may be restricting you, or at least that’s how you might perceive things, and you may not be at your best in terms of overall energy. Some areas of your life may break down before they improve. There can also be bone and teeth problems – something that often happens with hard Saturn transits. Tidy and organize your life as much as possible to minimize the challenges. Aim to watch for signs of depletion and take steps to fortify yourself.
Additionally, seek ways to balance your life in terms of pleasures and responsibilities. Don’t turn your back on commitments and traditions entirely, and aim to learn and grow as much as possible from your experiences. The benefits of this transit are great, even if they sometimes feel slow to make themselves known! Incidentally, the last time this theme occurred was from 1991-early 1994.
With the ruler of your romance sector in your partnership sector now, you could bring a casual relationship to a new level.
With this theme on its ways out, there can be make-or-break moments for partnerships in 2025 and early 2026.
Particularly in January, restrictions in these areas can clash with other life departments and goals, mainly your desire to improve your work and health. For example, a partner could be annoyed with the attention you’re giving your routines. Instead, your relationship goals and work goals seem to be at cross-purposes right now. You could experience some fear of disapproval or lack of support.
Especially in April, you’re in good shape for clearing out problem areas, even long-standing ones, with special attention to balancing your need for structure with making room for some spontaneity. While there continue to be valuable life lessons and perhaps challenges in a close partnership, you’re finding outlets for any related stress or tension and/or finding ways to balance out attention to other pursuits. Relationships have special outlets, too. A partner or special friend can help reinforce your ideas or educational or travel goals. Or, bonding with an extended family member or people with whom you share a common interest can be especially rewarding. A partner or a relationship can inspire you, even indirectly, to reach new heights, explore new places or ideas, or to learn a new skill.
A commitment made to or with a partner can be part of the picture now. It may be time to take a relationship to a new level of responsibility, or to re-evaluate your romantic needs altogether. You’re more able to accept things for what they are. Facing realities about relationships can figure strongly.
From May 24th to September 1st, areas of slimming down include your intimate world, debts, obligations to others, and dependencies.
It’s a time to adopt a “back to basics” approach with intimacy, sharing, and shared finances, or money and property that comes from a source other than your personal income. There may be tests of sorts in these areas of life–as if the universe is checking that the foundations are strong. Things built on weak foundations may very well crack under the pressure of these tests. Those that are suitable and good will endure and strengthen.
During this period, you experience the beginnings of a new and upcoming cycle that will ultimately stick with you until April 2028.
You feel this theme strongly earlier or later in the cycle, depending on whether you were born earlier or later in the sign of Virgo. In 2025, those most directly affected by this transit are those Virgos born from approximately August 22-24 or with a Virgo Ascendant of 0-2 degrees the most. Those born later in Virgo will experience the strongest phase in future years.
Tests can come to your financial and intimate worlds during this cycle. You may deal with fears of surrendering yourself, emotionally or financially, to others. Support from others may not be as forthcoming as it has been in the past. For example, there can be a reduction in a partner’s income, or another form of financial support goes away or decreases during this period. Whatever the case, you might assume more independence in making a living.
Emotionally, there can be a feeling that others are not as supportive. There can be delays or difficulties, in general, with getting what you want or need from others. Intimacy may seem to dry up before it gets better.
However, it’s a strong time for handling financial matters, especially debts and taxes, logically and realistically. These are unlikely to be drastic changes but rather more on the lines of slow but sure progress, little by little. While it can be gradual growth, it’s real and long-lasting.
While this period can be a tad challenging at times, particularly when Saturn forms a quincunx to your Sun or Ascendant, there are some dazzling spots, making it a rewarding period overall, mainly if you focus more on long-term benefits and less on short-term frustrations. Saturn often brings on enough realism to help you get yourself on track.
The last time Saturn moved through this area of your solar chart was from April 1996 to June 1998 and October 1998 to February 1999–you could experience similar themes you did then, if applicable.
Especially in June, increased attention to a friendship or your social life and happiness goals doesn’t seem to mesh smoothly with equally powerful nudges to specialize or get serious about your inner world or intimate life.
Fortunately, you can find some real joy in simplifying these areas of life. You’re productive and committed. You may make an important commitment or form a powerful alliance or attachment. You can benefit from some self-discipline in these life departments, and it’s a powerful time for positive lifestyle changes. It feels good to straighten out key areas of your life. It’s also a good time for securing a supporter or some backing, although this can take some trial and error.
You’re likely to see solid, long-lasting improvements in your life as you let go of rigidity and pressure but stick with reliability and order. This period rewards attention to both practical and emotional needs, and fulfilling pursuits can be the result.
Still, it’s also a time when you’re more accountable and realistic, and the need to make a commitment to your future arises. A loan or mortgage could come through, but whatever does emerge now comes with increased responsibility. There may also be a call from the past or a circumstance that temporarily slows you down. A sobering reality about a relationship or finances can figure strongly, and it’s empowering to know exactly where you stand.
Areas of Excitement, Innovation, Independence, and Speed: Mind Expansion, Education, Enlightenment, Discovery, Sharing, & Career
- Education
- Publishing & Sharing
- Beliefs & Ideas
- Adventure & Travel
- Career & Life Path
- Reputation & Status
Your 2025 Virgo Horoscope points to areas of your life that seem to speed up so that you can take some risks, innovate, and revolutionize.
Good news for you: for much of this year until April 2026, Uranus is in a harmonious, positive aspect to your sign, suggesting a gentle nudge toward experimenting and connecting with your uniqueness.
Until July 7th and from November 7th onward, you’re in a lengthy period (lasting about seven years overall!) in which your belief systems and knowledge change and develop. You experience a spiritual awakening of sorts. Travel opportunities may arise, or new topics or adventures, whether physical or mental, open you up to new experiences.
This influence is on its way out this year and the next. It will be gone for good by April 2026, and in 2025, it’s with you until July 7th and from November 7th forward.
Learning needs to be exciting or cutting-edge for you to keep your interest at this time. But while you are less interested in traditional subjects or learning methods, if you are on an educational path, be sure to “endure” some of these things so that your training is relevant to your career goals.
Life experiences are slightly unpredictable and quite exciting. You are embracing change and more easily incorporating changes into your personality.
Note that this theme often opens up unexpected and seemingly random opportunities to explore new places and topics. Sometimes it’s about travel, but it can take place on other levels related to new adventures, such as “armchair travel” and new ideas or virtual connections with people and places you have never explored. How transits affect you always depends on your current circumstances and stage of development.
It’s a wonderfully supportive, gently stimulating, and motivating period. You may be doing a lot more sharing and exploring ideas. You may connect with friends or groups that inspire and excite you or encourage you to grow and expand your mind and experiences.
Your work may be related to publishing, guiding, or teaching during this period.
While there can be times when other areas of your life can clash with your desire to learn and share, this theme is largely straightforward and positive in the year 2025 as it nears an end. Especially in April, May, and November, you enjoy pushing yourself a little to explore and share more. Great debates and mind-opening experiences tie in with partnerships.
Influences now bring wonderful surprises. The urge for adventure and new experiences, interesting excursions, or different topics and ideas is strong, and these things can introduce you to new cultures, beliefs, personal interests, or feelings. Sudden opportunities to expand your horizons, such as through travel, adventure, or learning, can arise and jolt you out of your routine. New insights into work and health matters keep you motivated. Publishing and sharing can be especially favorable.
From July 7th to November 7th, you’re previewing the new long-term theme that officially begins in April 2026. Your career, professional projects, reputation, and public image will open up and change. These areas of life can be unpredictable – the wildcard areas of life – but also highly stimulating and innovative. You can bring fresh insight to your work.
During this period, you experience the beginnings of a new and upcoming cycle that will ultimately stick with you until the year 2033. This may be a time when you take an unexpected turn in your work.
It’s best to watch for jumping on a bandwagon that is impractical during this long-term cycle. Also, while you prefer to set your own pace in your work, try to avoid becoming a loner in your professional life. Others can have valuable input you might miss while you’re too busy asserting your independence! Otherwise, this can be a robust period of innovation.
Your career, life path, or direction can alter now as you seem to need to express yourself more authentically in 2025. More courage is with you for breaking out along new paths.
People see you differently and you, in turn, feel differently about your public image. You often bring a progressive, innovative, and unique spirit to your work or reputation. It’s a period for getting in better touch with your intuition, which can greatly affect your career or direction. A health, job, or routine matter can be integral to this process, or daily life goals motivate a change in approach to your status, career, and reputation.
There can be times when an erratic, unpredictable, abrupt, or rebellious theme in these areas of your life can clash with other life departments, especially with your social life or happiness goals this year. However, you seem especially tuned in and capable of taking advantage of the positive potentials of these themes. Particularly in August, there can be opportunities to advance materially or emotionally by thinking of your future. These are times when being progressive and willing to make minor changes can pay off. Love or business relationships can be supportive. Something changes, such as leaving a no-win or dead-end situation behind. You could find yourself especially motivated by, and passionate about, the work you do. Support is forthcoming.
It’s a significant, sometimes disruptive, but ultimately enlightening transit.
Your Planetary Ruler in 2025
Your Planetary Ruler in 2025: Mercury, your ruler, travels quickly through the signs, covering a lot of ground in any given year. This may be why the sign of Virgo is associated with some nervousness but also much knowledge and many interests.
Mercury’s retrograde periods are times for reflection and perhaps some backtracking.
In 2025, Mercury retrogrades three times, and these periods are from:
- March 15-April 17 (in Aries and Pisces),
- July 18-August 11 (in Leo).
- and then November 9-29 (in Sagittarius and Scorpio).
These times require reassessing issues, doing some reflection, and taking things a little more slowly.
When Mercury is out of bounds, you can have the tendency to act out of character if you’re not careful, and these periods in 2025 are from January 9-20, June 1-20, October 31-November 11, and December 28-onward.
More power to you when Mercury is direct in your sign, and in 2025, this occurs from September 2-18.
Better days are January 18-19 (but Mercury is OOB), February 3, May 5-6, May 23-28, June 11-12, September 12-13, and December 11-13.
*It’s important to note that birthdates for Sun signs are always approximate since the starting date and time varies a bit every single year. If you were born on one of these cutoff dates (commonly known as a “cusp”), you can get a definitive answer using a Sun Sign Calculator. You can also write reports@cafeastrology.com with your birth information and we can let you know your true Sun sign if you were born on or beside the approximate date range given for any sign of the zodiac.
