How to Receive More Without Working Harder - New Moon In Virgo 2026

What happens when you finally get the money, support, love, or opportunity you worked for, but you are too angry about what it cost to enjoy it? This New Moon in Virgo is asking you to stop proving yourself and learn how to receive. We're talking about why you keep looking for the catch when life gets easier, how resentment can make you reject what you wanted, and the three things you must do to accept what is here. I also break down where this reset is happening for all 12 rising signs. You already did the hard part. Don't miss the reward because you are still fighting a battle that is over. 12 Rising Signs Virgo - 41:46 Leo - 45:43 Cancer - 50:13 Gemini - 55:43 Taurus - 1:00:00 Aries - 1:05:00 Pisces - 1:10:35 Aquarius - 1:17:10 Capricorn - 1:21:28 Sagittarius - 1:27:29 Scorpio - 1:33:40 Libra - 1:37:16 More Information Venus Retrograde Workshop: https://qualscholars.kit.com/1df0c56de4 Astrology Reading: https://www.happyfreeandpaid.com/ Naturally Marvette YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@marvettelacy Marvette's Personal Instagram: https://instagram.com/marvettelacy/ Qual Scholars' Instagram: https://instagram.com/qual_scholars/

Stop People Pleasing | Venus In Taurus Square Pluto In Aquarius

Ever felt like your biggest supporters just don't get it? Here's how to navigate that awkward silence. When you step out of what's normal for your circle, your nervous system goes into overdrive. It's as if you're suddenly a pioneer in uncharted territory. I remember sharing my big business goals with friends. The silence that followed? Deafening. It felt like I was asking them to believe in a fantasy. But here's the thing: their silence wasn't about me. It was about them not understanding what's possible. Your journey might seem crazy to others, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't pursue it. Take it as data. Are they supportive? Or is this a repeated pattern? Remember, stepping outside your comfort zone is where growth happens. And yes, you might need to invest in your dreams, just like I did. It's okay to bet on yourself, even when it feels scary. What's your next big leap?
