New Moon in Virgo = New Word List!
Poetry Prompt for the Virgo New Moon on September 2, 2024
Good afternoon, friends!
Today is the New Moon in Virgo! If you haven’t read the New Moon horoscope, you can access it here.
Let’s talk poetry…
Word list #28
For the New Moon in Virgo, September 2, 2024
(due on the Lunar Eclipse/Full Moon, September 17, 2024)
How to play: Below you will find this lunar month’s word list—from it, you are to write a poem using the exact words listed in the order they are in.
For example, the opening to my poem might be:
“The pharmacy was closed” and then I would use the next word in the list in a line after the first word, “I let out a yell”….
…and so on until all 16 words have been used. There is no limit to the length of your poem or how many words are between the words in the list. There are no other rules, just use all 16 words as they are (do not change their tense or add suffixes to them) and in the order presented.
Next Full Moon, I will share the poem that I write here on Substack, and if you’d like you can share your poem with me! If you share on social media, please use the hashtag #astromommywordpoem so we can all read our poems in one place! Thanks for participating!
