What happens when the part of you that seeks love, connection, and sensory pleasure is in an environment that prioritizes separating, sorting and analysis?
This is the vibe of Venus in Virgo.
In 2025, Venus will be in Virgo for approximately a month, from September 19 (8:39 AM ET) to October 13.
Venus in Virgo Vibes
Venus represents the part of us that seeks pleasure, connection, harmony, love, and beauty. Venus speaks about relationships, money, justice, unions, and what we value. Venus is about the body and the senses.
Virgo is a mutable, yin, earth sign where we sort the harvest and choose what is worth preserving for winter. This is the home of Mercury, the planet of logic, data, and details.
When Venus is in Virgo, it still does its Venus things — seeking beauty and pleasure — but in a way that is aligned with the environment run by Mercury.
Venus in Virgo is an analytical, inward focused, and organized Venus.
5 Ways to Work With Venus in Virgo
Here are 5 ways to work with Venus in Virgo during its transit.
(1) Hone Your Discernment
Virgo is a sign that values discernment, and Venus in Virgo is picky about what it likes. Venus in Virgo doesn’t settle for less than what meets its criteria.
Whether its a purchase, a work project
That said, beware of setting unrealistic standards of perfection or being hyper-critical, both of which are risks in Virgo. Sometimes something has beauty in an unconventional way or may meet needs that you hadn’t considered.
Don’t settle, but don’t dismiss everything out of hand.
(2) Get Organized
When I was growing up, my room had piles of folders, papers, magazines, books and projects placed on every surface. To me, this looked organized. It’s classic ADHD “chaos”: I knew where everything was, and it was in sight where I could see it.
To my mom, who has Venus in Virgo, this was a “mess.” She would constantly tell me to clean up my room, reminding me to have “a place for everything and everything in it’s place.”
In Virgo, Venus finds pleasure in having everything organized and orderly. For my mom, decluttering and organizing the house relieves anxiety and stress.
She regularly clears out her closets to get rid of old clothes. This is the epitome of Venus in Virgo organization, as Venus is the planet of fashion.
Venus’ transit through Virgo is a good time to clear out the clutter from your closets and create space for a wardrobe that will bring you pleasure.
(3) Master New Skills
Mercury has an ancient association with skilled trades, and Virgo is a place where we are supported in building mastery.
Venus’ transit through Virgo is a good time to practice skills in areas related to art, beauty, and pleasure. In practical, earthy Virgo, perhaps this involves something with your hands.
This is a good transit for working on your cooking or baking skills — especially as Virgo is associated with digestion. Maybe you’ll learn how to make healthier meals.
You might also hone your art skills, like drawing or painting, or other forms of creating. This can be an ideal time to create a new website or tinker with your current site to beautify and optimize it.
(4) Preserve Your Best Work
Just like a farmer would separating the fruits of the harvest to determine what can be preserved through winter, Venus’ transit through Virgo is an ideal time to sort through your digital clutter and work projects to determine what’s worth preserving.
Scrapbooking or making photo albums is also a great Venus in Virgo project. Sorting through your photos and choosing your best ones to create an album that you can enjoy in the future is like canning your best produce to preserve it for winter.
As you review your past work projects and creations, consider what has value beyond your own pleasure.
What can you re-purpose? What can you monetize?
This combines Virgo’s energy of sorting with Venus’ association with finances.
(5) Show Love Through Service
Venus wants to create connections and express love. In Virgo, a sign of service and helping, it does this through acts of service.
While Venus is in Virgo, consider how you could volunteer your time and skills to help others.
Love it? Hate it? What do you think? Don't hold back...
