Scientifically, the summer solstice refers to the period of time when the sun appears to stand still for roughly three days (via Allure). While it’s only an illusion and actually indicates that the sun is finishing its northbound motion and is appearing to turn south (to those of us in the northern hemisphere), the name “solstice” literally means the sun is standing still. In Latin, “sol” means sun, and “sistere” means standing still. Not only does this phenomenon create the longest day of the year, always falling between June 20 and June 22, but it is also a powerful moment in the astrological year. 

The summer solstice has been celebrated for centuries by multiple different cultures and religions for its spiritual significance. How this significant celestial even will affect you personally can depend on your zodiac sign. If you are a Virgo, read on to learn how to harness the power of this full-of-light event to your advantage.   

What Virgos can expect from the summer solstice

This year’s summer solstice will technically take place on Sunday, June 20 at 11:32 pm, Eastern Time (via Farmer’s Almanac), though celebrations and rituals welcoming the summer season are likely to take place throughout the weekend. That said, you, Virgo, should be honest with yourself about who you want to celebrate this sunny season with (via Reader’s Digest). You’re so good at taking care of others and can be kind and make conversation with virtually anyone. But not everyone is qualified to be your close confidante and friend (which is something you already know). But as this season begins, you will thrive through sincerely connecting with one or a few very true friends.

It’s time to trust someone, and you know intuitively who is worthy of that trust. Joy, love, and dreams all blossom more cleanly and fully when they are shared with a person or a few people who sincerely share your vision, your passion, and your values. Whether you are looking to start a business, an artistic endeavor, or simply plan some summer social engagements, consider doing so with the type of person you can truly be yourself around and let go of your tendency toward perfectionism. Soak up the sun and soak up some sincere love. It’s time.
