Virgo Nurturing Your Inner Critic – August 18, 2025
Today, the analytical and practical energy of Virgo is amplified by the alignment of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter in the sign. This creates a perfect opportunity for Virgos to engage in a simple ritual that will help them nurture their inner critic.
As the sign of self-improvement, Virgos are notorious for being hard on themselves. This can lead to feelings of self-doubt and criticism. To combat this, take a moment today to write down any negative thoughts or self-criticism that comes to mind. Then, light a candle and burn the paper, symbolically releasing these negative thoughts and creating space for self-love and acceptance.
To further empower this ritual, repeat the following affirmation: “I am worthy and capable, I release self-criticism and embrace self-love.” This mantra will help you shift your mindset and focus on nurturing yourself instead of constantly criticizing.
Reflecting on today’s astrological context, ask yourself: How can I use my analytical nature to appreciate and nurture myself instead of criticizing? This question will guide your intentions for the day and help you channel the energy of Virgo towards self-love and acceptance.
Remember, Virgo, self-improvement starts with self-love. Embrace your inner critic, but don’t let it overpower your sense of self-worth. Use today’s energy to nurture yourself and celebrate your strengths and accomplishments.
