Eclipses are turning points, often marking the beginning of new journeys and the conclusion of old cycles in our lives. They bring an unexpected surge of energy, quickening the pace of important changes that may feel sudden or unsettling. Yet, these shifts are crucial, gently pushing us toward growth and evolution!
A Full Moon Partial LUNAR ECLIPSE happens on September 18, 2024 (10:34 AM, Philippine Time), at exactly 25°40′ of the realm of mutable water, PISCES, the sign of the mystic.

Eclipse season has arrived once more, dear reader, with a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse happening in the realm of mutable water: PISCES, the zodiac’s ocean of emotion! This lunation marks the beginning of a new eclipse cycle in the VIRGO-PISCES axis, with this particular cycle spanning roughly 2 years and 4 months, bringing significant beginnings and endings in the areas of your chart where these eclipses take place.
PISCES, the final sign of the zodiac, embodies the essence of all the signs that precede it. Often referred to as the sign of the mystic, Pisces is associated with spirituality, wisdom, and introspection. It represents the completion of the zodiac cycle, symbolizing the transcendence of the physical world and the integration of all the lessons learned along the way, paving the path for a new cycle to begin.
As an archetype, PISCES is all about the absorption of emotion. Arguably, it is a sign that feels more deeply than others, with heightened sensitivity and attunement to the energetic frequencies around it. In contrast to the other water signs —CANCER and SCORPIO—who can be quite protective of their emotions, often armoring themselves because they recognize their vulnerability, PISCES completely surrenders to the feeling, offering no defenses. Instead of shielding itself, Pisces allows the emotions to flow through, experiencing both the beauty and the pain without resistance. Because it is soft – and brave enough- to set no boundaries, it becomes a great conduit for the emotional currents of the world around it.
Over the course of this new cycle, there will be three key eclipses in PISCES, each bringing its own set of changes and developments:
⭐️ The first eclipse sets things in motion—often triggered by a sudden awareness of deep emotional discontent or revelations of hidden information that push us to initiate change. While it may not offer immediate clarity, it will highlight areas that need attention.
⭐️ The second eclipse tends to push decisions and actions to the forefront.
⭐️ The final eclipse acts as a resolution point, providing either closure or progress on the themes introduced earlier in the cycle. These three phases will prompt practical adjustments and thoughtful reflection as the situation evolves.
The last time eclipses in this axis occurred was during the VIRGO-PISCES cycle way back 2015-2017. Reflecting on the significant changes from that period can give you insights into the themes this new eclipse cycle may bring.
ECLIPSE ASPECTS
This particular partial eclipse converses with 4 bigger planets: JUPITER, SATURN, URANUS amd NEPTUNE. These interactions allow for their energies to infuse with each other, creating a complex collection of contrasting emotions. A brief on what to expect per aspect:
SATURN and NEPTUNE: This eclipse falls between Saturn and Neptune, generating conflicting energies that are likely to provoke confusion. Under this lunation, we may find ourselves questioning our boundaries. Saturn’s influence urges us to face reality and establish structure, while Neptune blurs the lines, making it easy to drift into denial or fantasy. This eclipse forces us to navigate the tension between accepting hard truths and holding on to comforting illusions.
JUPITER: Jupiter joins the conversation by exchange tense, frustrating energy with the Moon. With this eclipse happening in Jupiter’s kingdom of Pisces, Jupiter’s effect is a bit more prominent. Under the Moon’s obstructed light, we are lured towards exagerrated expectations, likely leading to frustration and disappointment. Jupiter’s expansive nature pushes for growth, but under the influence of this eclipse, emotional tension from the Moon can amplify feelings of restlessness.
URANUS: To add to the already unpredictable quality of eclipses in general, Uranus, the planet of surprises and unexpected events, chimes in with a sextile, a supportive and exciting aspect that can bring sudden breakthroughs, flashes of insight, and unexpected opportunities. This energy encourages us to embrace the unknown and stay open to changes that may push us in new, exhilarating directions!
As we enter the eclipse season, it’s important to remember that while emotions may rise and the boundaries between reality and dreams blur, this is also a time to utilize the magic of imagination. Pisces teaches us that when we allow ourselves to dream, we open up new possibilities—ones we might never have considered! Let your imagination show you what can be, not as a form of escape, but as a tool for envisioning what you can create.
However, as we explore these creative visions, grounding is key. Jupiter may push us to dream big, and Uranus can bring exhilarating surprises, but we must remain rooted in the present, flexible, and realistic in our expectations! It’s not about clinging to specific outcomes or rigidly controlling the path ahead. Instead, trust the process, stay open to change, and allow yourself to flow with the energy of this eclipse. By blending imagination with practical steps, we can navigate these waves of emotion and opportunity, moving forward with clarity and confidence. And at the end of this, you might just find out that you are actually stronger, more resilient than you think!
For now, remember, dear reader, our adventure in this eclipse cycle is just starting! The full story has yet to be written, and what lies ahead will reveal itself in the moments to come. ❤
