Cramming, plus a messy technical glitch (finally sorted out after a lot of troubleshooting), kept this month’s cosmic weather from being published on schedule. Reflecting on the timing, it dawned on me how much this mirrored the state of September, arguably the year’s most pivotal month. From a confusing first half, where everything feels scattered and untidy, we are almost pushed to a reckoning in the second, where we are called to step up, sort through the chaos, and face what can no longer be ignored.
We’ve entered eclipse territory once more, dear reader, and as expected, the air feels unsettled. Eclipse energy is among the strongest—if not the strongest—of astrological forces, its influence documented through centuries of observation. Each eclipse arrives carrying both seeds and scissors: seeds to plant new beginnings, and scissors to cut away what has reached its end.
It’s been a while since we’ve looked into lunations, but let’s dive in and explore for a bit:
LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES
The first half of the month is colored by the nebulous, restless but lethargic energy of a Total Lunar Eclipse happening on the 8th, in Pisces, the sign of the mystic. A necessary ending or undoing gets unraveled for most of us in the area where this eclipse falls in our natal charts.
Pisces energy is boundless and scattered, easily blending into whatever it touches. However, this eclipse sits right next to Saturn, the planet of limits and responsibility. It’s a reminder that we can’t drift forever, dear reader—at some point, the fog clears and reality demands shape. Things may feel messy or even like they’re falling apart, but that unraveling is what allows you to rebuild with stronger foundations. Saturn’s presence makes sure that what survives isn’t just a dream, but something lasting and real.
WHO ARE THE MOST AFFECTED?
If you have personal planets and points from 10°-20° of the MUTABLE SIGNS (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces), you may feel this eclipse strongly,
most especially if you are born on these dates:
GEMINI: June 1 - 10 VIRGO: September 2 - 12 SAGITTARIUS: December 2 - 12 PISCES: March 1 - 11
SOLAR ECLIPSE IN VIRGO
Virgo’s energy is exacting, analytical, and determined to refine. This eclipse pushes us to walk away from what no longer functions, or even to cut ties with patterns that keep us stuck, all with the intention of making space for renewal. Endings here can feel sharp—almost fated—but they carry within them the seed of something better. It’s a cosmic call to let go of perfectionism and routines that weigh you down, so that space can open for healthier, more purposeful ways of living.
Towards the end of the month, a Solar Eclipse happens in Virgo, on the 22nd, a South Node eclipse at the final degree of the sign. Expect tension between order and surrender, clarity and confusion, as your plans or expectations are tested. What feels like disruption is actually guidance, showing you how to build a foundation that’s both practical and soulful.
WHO ARE THE MOST AFFECTED?
If you have personal planets and points from 25-29° of the MUTABLE SIGNS (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces), you may feel this eclipse strongly,
and in a lesser degree, from 0°-5° of CARDINAL SIGNS (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn)
most especially if you are born on these dates:
ARIES: March 21- 26
GEMINI: June 16-20
CANCER: June 21-26
VIRGO: September 17-22
LIBRA: September 23-28
SAGITTARIUS: December 17-21
CAPRICORN: December 22-27
PISCES: March 16-20
The winds of change are here, as the climax to this eclipse cycle unfolds. The next six months are going to be interesting, to say the very least. These eclipses remind us that transformation is rarely neat, dear reader – it’s equal parts loss and breakthrough. But what a breakthrough, once we get there! What a breakthrough, indeed. ❤
