This Saturday’s Virgo new moon in your eleventh house of wishes connects you with your deepest desires—the ones you rarely share aloud. It’s also the first in a rare, back-to-back pair, with the second—a solar eclipse on September 21—poised to accelerate whatever you set in motion now, possibly in surprising ways. The eleventh house also rules teamwork, so remember: it often takes a whole (virtual) village to make big dreams happen. Let your circle in on what you’re seeking. Your goal might be reached through a friend of a friend. Socially, ditch the comfort zone and expand your network. Seek out fresh connections who share your passions and values. But choose your company wisely on Sunday, as the ego-ruling Sun in your friendship corner clashes with individualistic Uranus in your intimate eighth house. You can't have your chocolate ganache cake and eat it too, so it'll be up to you to decide if you can forgive people’s quirks in the name of solidarity. One approach is to create more free-flowing relationships with people who don't "need" others to fill them up. That doesn't mean you have to ditch your loyal companions—even the more high-maintenance ones. On the contrary: More independence makes your choices to be together all the more meaningful.
