Virgo dates

When is Virgo season?

Virgo season usually runs from August 23 to September 22. But the Sun keeps its own clock, and it crosses into Virgo at a different minute every year. Here is that moment for each year between 1930 and 2050, and for this year in your own time.

The harvest season, gathering, sorting and making things whole.

What Virgo season asks of all of us

Late summer is harvest time. Virgo season hands us the basket and asks what is ripe, what needs tending and what can finally go. It is the most natural moment of the year for fresh starts that actually stick: new routines, clean drawers, kinder habits. Small and steady beats grand and abandoned.

A small ritual

Clear one drawer, one inbox or one corner. Notice how much lighter your mind feels afterwards.

Written from the northern hemisphere, where these seasons were first named. South of the equator the weather flips, and the sign keeps its meaning.

Which third of Virgo are you?

The Sun spends about ten days in each third of a sign. These are the dates for 2027, Greenwich time. Your birthday lives in one of them.

First decanAugust 23 to September 2

Ruled by Mercury

Mercury runs the sign and this decan too, which may explain the colour coded notes. Precise, perceptive and quietly witty, you understand things by taking them apart.

Born August 23?
Second decanSeptember 2 to September 12

Ruled by Saturn

Saturn brings discipline and long patience. You are dependable to the core, and your work tends to stand the test of time.

Born September 2?
Third decanSeptember 12 to September 23

Ruled by Venus

Venus softens Virgo with a love of beauty and comfort. You care for people through practical gifts, good food and a lovingly kept home.

Born September 12?

Born on the edge?

If your birthday is August 21, August 22, August 23, August 24 or September 21, September 22, September 23, September 24, your Sun sign depends on the year and even the hour you were born. Tap your day to find out which side of the line you landed on.

The Virgo in you

Virgo season is harvest time, when the fields come in and everything is sorted for the months ahead. You notice the crooked picture frame, the missing comma, the friend who went quiet. Your love shows up as care in the small things, and the small things are where life actually happens.

How common is Virgo?

In US birth records from 1994 to 2014, 8.92% of babies were born under Virgo, about 89 in every 1,000. That makes Virgo number 2 of 12, where 1 is the most common.

Why the dates move

Our calendar counts 365 days, but the Sun takes about 365 days and 6 hours to come back to the same point in the sky. So each year it crosses into Virgo roughly six hours later than the year before, until a leap day pulls the calendar back into step. That is why the first and last days of every sign can belong to either side.

Between 1930 and 2050, Virgo season begins as early as August 22, 2048 at 10:02 and as late as August 24, 1931 at 03:10, Greenwich time.
