Eclipses in Astrology: Solar vs. Lunar, Dos & Don’ts, Saros Cycle & How They Affect Your Natal Chart · Cozy with the Cosmos with Astrologer Sarah Paasch

0:00
Welcome back to the podcast where we get cozy with the
0:03
cosmos. If you're new here, my name is
0:06
Sarah Posh and I am your host, astrologer, and coach.
0:09
And if you've been around for a while with these episodes, thank
0:12
you. It's so great to have you back.
0:14
I've talked recently about ways that I'm reshaping this podcast,
0:17
one of them being the new setup as we get cozy with our blanket
0:22
and our candles. And the other things that I'm
0:24
doing is I'm totally restructuring the rhythm and the
0:28
format. O now you're going to get a new
0:30
episode every Thursday and it's going to alternate between lunar
0:35
cycle astrology forecasts. We're going to do deep dives
0:38
into astrology techniques or focus topics, and then I'm also
0:42
going to offer once a month of full moon horoscopes and a tarot
0:46
card pull for every rising sign. I'm super excited.
0:49
This format, this rhythm really gets me lit up to kind of expand
0:54
and do more things creatively and tap into different channels
0:58
of talking about astrology. So this week is going to bring
1:01
us to our first focus topic episode, and we're going to talk
1:05
all about eclipses. Dun Dun Dun.
1:08
We're going to talk about what they mean, how they've been
1:10
understood differently across different astrological
1:14
traditions, and how you can work with them in your chart.
1:17
I'm also going to mention a few resources and link them below
1:21
this episode for you to check out from some of my favorite
1:24
astrologers that are doing incredible work with this focus
1:28
topic on eclipses. I recommend that you check those
1:30
out if you're interested in learning more after this video.
1:33
O let's just start from the top. What is an eclipse?
1:37
One of my favorite terms that I recently heard astrologer Gemini
1:40
Brett use is this idea of shadow play.
1:43
Shadow play between the sun and the moon.
1:46
I think even just that phrasing invites so much contemplation
1:51
into what an eclipse is. But on a more technical level,
1:54
an eclipse is a new moon or a full moon that occurs when
1:58
there's an alignment between the sun, the moon, and the Earth
2:02
across the ecliptic at the point where we call the nodes, the
2:07
North Node and the South Node. Maybe you've heard of those
2:09
terms before. If you've heard of those, or
2:11
maybe read about those, those aren't actually planets or
2:14
asteroids. The North Node and South Node
2:17
are actual mathematical points that are these cross points in
2:21
the ecliptic and they denote when there is an alignment
2:24
between the sun, the Moon and the Earth during a new moon and
2:27
full moon where there will be a shadow cast over one of the
2:31
lights or luminaries casting its shadow, shall we say, and
2:36
eclipsing the light of that luminary.
2:38
So on a solar eclipse, this is always going to happen on a new
2:42
moon and this is when the alignment eclipses the light of
2:46
the sun versus a lunar eclipse. This is always an eclipse
2:51
occurring on the full moon when the shadow is cast over the
2:55
light of the moon, giving it a little reddish tint that we see
3:00
when we look into the sky. So whether it's the moon
3:02
blocking the sun's light and a solar eclipse, or it's the Earth
3:05
casting a shadow across the moon and a lunar eclipse,
3:09
archetypally both of these are hiding light.
3:13
And that's where we get this idea and this concept of shadow
3:15
play. Eclipses are not just random one
3:18
off events. Eclipses are always part of a
3:21
much longer cosmic rhythm that we weave through time. 1st we
3:26
have eclipse seasons. So this happens every six months
3:30
or so when these little windows of time that the sun and the
3:34
moon line up with the Earth and the nodes, and the eclipses
3:37
occur during the new moons and the full moons.
3:40
So always happens every six months, twice a year.
3:43
It's usually in the same 2 signs.
3:46
Sometimes there's a crossover when the nodes are shifting
3:48
signs. And these eclipse cycles usually
3:51
last about 18 months. So about a year and a half to
3:55
two years we'll see the same series of eclipses and the same
3:58
signs. Then on a bigger scale, eclipses
4:02
belong to what's called a Cerro cycle.
4:04
This is an 18 year family of eclipse that repeat with a very
4:09
similar pattern of the Sun, moon and Earth and the geometry that
4:13
they create. Each Cerro's family lasts over
4:16
1000 years. So that means when the eclipse
4:19
we experienced today from the Cerro's family, it's actually
4:23
part of a much older story that began centuries ago.
4:27
So when we experience an eclipse, we are not just feeling
4:30
today's energy, we're plugging into a larger cosmic inheritance
4:35
that's been echoing through time.
4:38
It's kind of fun to investigate. If you're somebody who likes to
4:40
look and learn through the lens of your personal astrology, you
4:43
can actually look up the eclipses that were happening
4:46
right before you were born. This is called your prenatal
4:48
eclipse. And then you can identify which
4:51
eclipse family, so which arrows cycle those eclipses live
4:55
within. And then you can track the cycle
4:58
of those specific Cerro cycle eclipses that happen throughout
5:02
your lifetime and start to just maybe notice that there's a
5:05
pattern of significance that's a little bit more heightened
5:08
during those specific eclipses. So taking into consideration
5:13
this awareness that these eclipses are part of a much
5:16
longer, larger cosmic story and unfolding, that means for us
5:21
personally that an eclipse can feel like fate stepping in.
5:25
It can be like a story long in the making suddenly taking a
5:29
turn. This is why eclipses often
5:31
coincide with those big life redirecting moments that we
5:35
couldn't have planned if we tried, and also the
5:38
consideration that the effect of the eclipse does not just last
5:42
six months like a typical new moon to full moon, because it's
5:46
a part of these larger cycles of time.
5:49
The effects and the implications of what happens during an
5:52
eclipse usually plays out for at least another year, sometimes
5:56
two years later. And it can be even life changing
6:00
if it's an eclipse that's impacting our Natal chart in a
6:02
really sensitive and personal way.
6:04
And part of that comes back to this shadow play and coming back
6:07
to the idea that the light is being obscured or eclipsed
6:11
during these new moons and full moons.
6:13
Often times we don't see what the implications of that eclipse
6:17
was until we look back in retrospect.
6:20
Another key phrase that I like to use for eclipses before we
6:23
dive into some more details is that when you think about solar
6:27
eclipse, as you can think of the phrase major beginnings, and
6:31
when you think about lunar eclipses or the full moon
6:34
eclipses, you can think about major endings or completions.
6:38
I noticed that sometimes people get tripped up on the word
6:41
completion. Sometimes completion means
6:44
fruition. Think about how we talk about
6:46
our full moons. Yes, sometimes that means things
6:49
are coming to an end or close, but it can also mean that things
6:52
are coming to a point of release of karmic kind of blossoming
6:57
with that full moon major endings.
6:59
So next I want to talk about some of the meanings across
7:02
different traditions and what I'm talking about when I say
7:05
astrological traditions. There's modern astrology,
7:08
there's Vedic astrology, and then there's Hellenistic or
7:11
traditional astrology. I personally practice
7:13
traditional or Hellenistic astrology and my client
7:15
practice, I do weave in some of the archetypal modern astrology
7:20
as well into my work. But for the most part, when I'm
7:23
using any kind of timing techniques, we're always using
7:26
traditional astrology. So it's kind of fascinating to
7:28
me to recognize that these different astrological
7:31
traditions do look at and interpret eclipses differently.
7:36
In modern astrology, there's more of this energy around
7:40
growth and spiritual development.
7:43
They see eclipses as being these catalysts for big releases and
7:46
beginnings. The North Node as this point of
7:48
soul growth and development. The South Node is kind of our
7:51
karmic past or past lives if you believe in that concept.
7:54
Whereas the Vedic tradition, they actually call the North
7:58
Node Rahu and the South Node K2, and the Vedic tradition in
8:03
general is much more rooted in the karmic philosophy.
8:08
So they really see the eclipses through the karmic lens and this
8:11
sort of ripening of the individual's inherent karma that
8:15
we see in the Natal chart versus in traditional astrology where
8:19
we're really looking at eclipses as potential amplifiers of the
8:23
NATO promise. So what is a Natal promise?
8:27
Have you ever heard that term before?
8:28
Maybe you haven't. In traditional astrology, A
8:30
Natal promise is basically telling us that nothing's ever
8:34
going to happen in an individual's life that isn't
8:38
already promised in the Natal chart.
8:41
We should be able to identify everything in the birth chart of
8:44
potentiality, of manifestation, of growth, of change, beginnings
8:48
and endings within the Natal context.
8:51
And if we don't see that in the Natal chart, then an eclipse
8:54
isn't really going to do much for that individual.
8:58
Eclipses really are just stirring themes already present
9:01
in the Natal context. Archetypally, you can kind of
9:04
imagine this as the Natal chart having this locked treasure
9:08
chest, right? And the eclipses might come and
9:12
unlock that trust and force it open, and something might fly
9:16
out. But what's going to fly out,
9:18
whether it's something really exciting and good or something
9:22
really tragic and hard, that's dependent on what was already in
9:26
that chest, in that treasure chest.
9:28
I hope that kind of helps clarify some of the differences
9:31
between the traditions and how they work with or interpret the
9:34
eclipses and also gives you a little bit more understanding of
9:38
what we mean when we say Natal promise.
9:40
And if you're somebody who's more interested in diving deep
9:43
into this idea of Natal promise and investigating what that
9:46
means specifically for you, I just launched a new mentorship
9:50
program with my colleague Alexandra Blair specifically
9:54
focused on this topic. It's called Living Chart Work
9:57
and it's a very limited space availability.
10:00
We're limiting it to 12 individuals and it's going to be
10:03
a really hands on immersion into learning these techniques
10:07
through actually doing them and working together in
10:10
collaboration and group and working through live chart
10:13
demos. So if you're interested in
10:14
learning more about that or seeing if you can enroll, then
10:17
go ahead and check out that link below.
10:18
And now I want to circle back to the North node and South Node
10:22
and the interpretations or meanings of those.
10:25
Is this an eclipse happening with the North node or the South
10:28
node? So the North Node and the South
10:29
Node are always positioned in equal and opposite positions in
10:33
the sky, so in equal polarity of the Zodiac signs.
10:36
For instance, right now we have the North Node in Pisces and we
10:41
have the South Node in Virgo. Next we will have the North Node
10:44
in Aquarius and the South Node in Leo.
10:47
And so I want to talk a little bit about the difference between
10:50
a N node eclipse and AS node eclipse.
10:52
Across both Vedic and Hellenistic astrology
10:55
traditions, the North Node was seen as this point of increase,
10:59
a point of obsession, potentially of hunger,
11:02
especially of hunger for worldly things or material things.
11:06
When we see a planet conjunct AN node and a Natal chart,
11:10
sometimes we read that as the potential for that planet to
11:13
have a little bit heightened power and potential, for better
11:17
or for worse. Like a really hungry Mars, a
11:20
little insatiable Mars that could lead to a little bit of
11:23
destruction and heightened amounts of conflict in that
11:27
person's life. Versus the South Node in Vedic
11:30
and Hellenistic traditions is seen more as this point of
11:33
release, a point of transcendence, or a focus on
11:37
more of the spiritual longings of the soul.
11:41
So a shift of focus from worldly acquisition and prominence to
11:46
spiritual acquisition and more of this idea of transcending
11:51
worldly things. So now let's come back to that
11:53
example we gave of Mars and the Natal chart.
11:56
If we had Mars conjunct the South Node this time instead of
11:59
the North Node, this is going to give that Mars a weakening
12:03
effect. We're going to have a
12:04
diminishment of the Mars potential.
12:07
And that kind of fiery ambitious, shouldn't oriented
12:11
Mars in the natives life. This might be somebody who's
12:13
more conflict avoidant or somebody who struggles to gather
12:17
their willpower and their energy to attain worldly ambitions and
12:21
goals. This is somebody who's not
12:23
really driven potentially by those worldly ambitions.
12:26
So I hope that gives you a little bit more clear of a
12:29
picture of that difference between the North Node and the
12:32
South Node and maybe beginning application of how to put it
12:35
into the birth chart or kind of start to put it with the planets
12:39
and how that might impact the different expression of the
12:41
planets in the natives life. And I also want to mention that
12:45
in my own personal practice as an astrologer over the last
12:48
decade in my client work, in my personal experience, I
12:52
personally have not seen the truth of the idea in modern
12:56
astrology that the North Node is a point that brings fruition for
13:00
the future soul development of this idea of like it's taking us
13:04
forward, its growth. And the South Node being this
13:07
point of our past lives. I really see both the North Node
13:11
and the South Node participating and moving individuals forward
13:16
and really significant and life changing faded ways.
13:20
So that's just my own personal experience.
13:22
I'm curious, are you somebody who works with eclipses, works
13:25
with the nodes and what's been your experience?
13:28
Go ahead and comment below. I'd love to hear what your
13:30
experience has been. If it's different than mine, I'd
13:33
love to learn from you. On that note, one thing I have
13:36
seen and I will advocate for is that I do not encourage people
13:42
to use eclipses as times to set intentions, to ritualize, to put
13:48
things into motion, or put moon water or crystals outside.
13:53
Eclipses are shadowy in nature. The light is being eclipsed.
13:57
There's so much that we can't see during an eclipse.
14:00
And I also know astrologers and colleagues that I respect the
14:03
hell out of their work and they don't believe that.
14:06
So of course, always take what's useful and discard the rest and
14:11
trust yourself over me or any other so-called astrology
14:15
expert. And I don't mean to be all doom
14:17
and gloom and fear mongering when I say this.
14:20
All I'm saying is that eclipses have their own energy and their
14:25
own agenda. And I tend to see that whatever
14:27
we put into motion or we think we're putting into motion, it's
14:31
usually not how it's going to actually result or come out in
14:35
the end. Because of those cycles of time
14:37
that we talked about in the beginning that are connected to
14:40
the eclipses. There's usually something bigger
14:43
playing out that we don't even really know about.
14:45
And there's also this very faded aspect.
14:48
You know, sometimes we can have plans and we're going in One
14:51
Direction and then all of a sudden eclipses come through and
14:55
the waves of the ocean that have been coming through the tide at
14:57
the same height every day, It's a tsunami that washes us all the
15:01
way onto a different shore. I thought it might be fun and a
15:04
little bit helpful to share a personal story since, I mean,
15:07
that's what we're doing. We're getting cozy.
15:08
We're talking about the cosmos. So I want to tell you about the
15:10
moment that I became an astrologer.
15:12
Dun tada, what do you know? It was an eclipse.
15:15
I actually used to be a pharmacist.
15:17
I practiced pharmacy and an orthopedic surgery hospital in
15:20
Omaha, NE, And in 2015, I was in my last year of pharmacy school.
15:25
I was applying for residencies. I really plan to specialize and
15:29
had this whole trajectory. I was very ambitious.
15:31
I did all the right things. My grades were on point, I had
15:33
great recommendations, and on the day of a Pisces eclipse, I
15:39
got turned turned down from every single residency that I
15:42
had applied for. My life had completely turned
15:45
upside down. The relationship I was in ended
15:48
unexpectedly, in hindsight expectedly, and I felt like life
15:52
had just shown up to my door and I was holding this bucket with
15:56
all of my life plans and all of the things I've done to get to
15:58
where I'm going and where I'm going to go next.
16:01
And it just took the bucket out of my hands.
16:03
As soon as I opened that door, it turned it upside down, poured
16:06
everything onto the floor and then gave me the bucket back,
16:08
kind of laughed and winked at me and walked away.
16:11
As you can imagine, I was totally distraught and literally
16:14
the only thing I could think to do was to read about the
16:17
astrology of the moment. I was like, what is going on?
16:20
Like I did everything right. Everything was set in a very
16:24
specific plan in a very specific order in case you didn't pick up
16:27
on it. Yes, I am a Capricorn, and it
16:31
didn't work out. So why?
16:32
Like, what is going on? And I started reading about the
16:35
eclipse, the Pisces eclipse that was happening.
16:37
It was also what's called a nodal opposition for me
16:39
personally. Maybe we'll do that in another
16:41
video. I'm not going to go into that
16:42
now, but it's a very potent window of time in everybody's
16:45
lives where I call it the cosmic chiropractic adjustment, this
16:50
nodal opposition where if you're going down the wrong trajectory,
16:54
life will kind of snap you back in place.
16:57
And that can feel really destabilizing and frustrating
17:01
like it did for me in 2015. Or maybe you've been waiting for
17:06
the moment to finally break free and get out of the path that
17:10
you're on. It's all dependent on ourselves,
17:13
our circumstances, our psychological makeup, our
17:15
emotional makeup, our worldview, etcetera, etcetera.
17:19
I digress. ANYWAYS, all this to say that
17:22
that eclipse was nothing. I planned that, that moment in
17:25
time that felt really significant for the reason I
17:27
thought it was. I thought it meant that I wasn't
17:30
supposed to do residency. I was just supposed to get a job
17:32
locally, stay in Nebraska, you know, work at this orthopedic
17:36
surgery hospital. And in hindsight, that isn't
17:39
even what it was about. It led me all the way to where I
17:42
am today. And now we're at the other nodal
17:45
opposition point, which is actually my nodal return.
17:49
Again, another topic, maybe for another day, but a significant
17:52
window of time if you're tracking eclipses in your Natal
17:54
chart. And it's really exciting because
17:57
I love where I'm at. I love this trajectory, but I
18:01
never would have put myself on here if it weren't for the
18:05
eclipses. And I guess that's what I mean
18:07
by they're shadowy, they're faded.
18:09
There's this invitation to kind of trust that something's
18:11
happening for us that's aligned to what it is that we're
18:15
intended to do. That needle promise that exists,
18:18
that isn't really in our control, but it is in our favor
18:23
in the long run. Again, comes back to that like
18:26
retrospect view that we sort of have.
18:28
So let's talk a little bit about do's and don'ts during eclipses,
18:31
right? These are my personal opinions.
18:34
These are my personal practice. These are not something that you
18:37
have to do if you're like not into it.
18:39
You do you, babe. But for me, I always use
18:42
eclipses as times to not force or try to manifest to specific
18:47
outcomes. I usually try to not put
18:49
anything into motion or start anything major intentionally.
18:55
And then I also don't ritualize the eclipse in terms of setting
18:58
moon water or charging crystals. I avoid any of that.
19:01
Also because our bodies are so intimately connected to the moon
19:05
and the rhythms of the moon and the sun.
19:07
I usually try to make sure during eclipse season that I'm
19:10
always cushioning myself and my schedule with a lot of extra
19:15
time for self-care. I am drinking more water.
19:18
I am eating better foods. I am seeing less people.
19:22
I am doing less in public. I'm a little bit cave mode
19:25
during eclipses, right? Like I'm kind of not so much
19:28
like taking cover as I am kind of getting myself out of the way
19:34
to minimize the destabilization or the turbulence, shall we say,
19:39
of the eclipse cycle. I'm also just highly, highly
19:41
sensitive to the moon and eclipses.
19:43
And so I notice if I don't do these practices, I can sometimes
19:47
get sick or there's been times where I got injured because I
19:50
try to just keep doing the status quo of what I was doing.
19:54
So for me, I'm like, OK, I need to just chill out.
19:56
It's eclipse season. Nothing is chill right now.
19:59
What can I do to make myself a little bit more chill?
20:02
So my personal dues, extra self-care, extra water, extra
20:07
rest, extra good nourishing foods.
20:10
I like to reflect, I like to observe, I like to journal more
20:14
during eclipse seasons. Kind of asking, what is it that
20:18
this space is revealing? Are there shadows that are
20:20
coming up? I'm really into pattern
20:23
interruption, especially in my coaching work, and shadows tend
20:27
to bring old patterns up in a really loud way.
20:31
That doesn't mean that we're necessarily in the pattern, or
20:34
we're reliving or regressing into the pattern.
20:37
It's almost as if the eclipse energy brings the pattern up in
20:40
this heightened way for the opportunity to release it,
20:44
interrupt it, or change it in a significant, dramatic way.
20:49
Kind of like instead of needing to work through a pattern and
20:52
therapy over six months, 12 months, 10 years, if we can wake
20:58
up to the pattern in the moment of the eclipse cycle and we can
21:02
change or interrupt it with a new pattern in that moment, it's
21:06
like it does 10 plus years of change, of pattern change and
21:12
maybe even karmic resolution. And then, of course, to ask
21:15
myself, you know, what would it take to allow more space for
21:20
faded change? What would it be like to trust
21:23
that whatever is happening right now is trying to reveal
21:26
something to me, is trying to take me somewhere that I might
21:29
not be able to see in this moment?
21:31
And along those lines of the pattern interruption or the
21:35
karmic resolution, eclipses are a great time to do cutting work.
21:41
If there's a change that you've been working on or a cord that
21:44
you know you're trying to cut, an eclipse is a great time to
21:49
cut that cord. Eclipses kind of have that
21:52
Saturnian power in that way where whatever we end or sever
21:57
has a deeper severing power and perseverance and whatever we
22:01
hold on to, whatever we, you know, grip or commit even deeper
22:06
into it can kind of solidify in that Saturnian way where it
22:09
might take more time later to get ourselves out of it.
22:13
And again, none of this is meant to be fear mongering, but we are
22:15
talking about eclipses and they're a little bit spooky.
22:17
So. So don't blame me, blame the
22:19
eclipses. And if my don'ts during eclipse
22:22
season aren't obvious at this point, then I'll go ahead and
22:25
make them obvious. Don't force anything.
22:28
Don't try to manifest anything specific.
22:31
If you've been putting in the work and you're on the right
22:34
trajectory and you haven't been avoiding change, that is obvious
22:38
change that needs to happen. And the eclipses aren't anything
22:41
to fear. They aren't anything to be
22:42
afraid of. There's something to be like, my
22:44
God, yes, let's catch this wave and take me further, farther,
22:47
faster. Unless you are avoiding change,
22:49
then maybe there's a little bit of fear involved.
22:53
My sag moon, she might be coming in a little bit too hot that
22:55
way. Let's get back to it.
22:56
One other thing that I wanted to mention in this episode was the
23:00
idea of eclipses outside of the Natal context.
23:03
So not just you personally, but what about the collective or the
23:06
mundane impact of eclipses? This is something that was
23:09
really a focus, especially for the Hellenistic astrological
23:12
tradition. This is really where they spent
23:14
most of their time when working with eclipses or reading
23:17
eclipses. So in ancient times, they feared
23:20
that eclipses signified the death of rulers.
23:24
It signified wars of major collective turbulence and
23:28
destructive life changing events.
23:31
What we can look for and you can pay attention to during the
23:34
eclipse seasons. Notice and look for any
23:36
leadership changes on a collective level.
23:39
You can also pay attention to any secrets that might be
23:42
surfacing, especially through prominent figures in collective
23:46
history and collective reality in today's society.
23:49
This is that collective shadow play coming onto the stage.
23:53
So it's kind of an interesting way to investigate the ideas
23:57
that we've been talking about on this episode around eclipses,
24:00
the solar eclipses, because we're eclipsing the light of the
24:02
sun, and sun traditionally rules rulers, people in authority,
24:07
leaders, people who have prominence and significance.
24:11
When there's a solar eclipse, sometimes that can mean the
24:15
eclipse of a leader, the fall of somebody in charge or in
24:18
authority. You can kind of pay attention,
24:20
whether it's your local collective, like your boss at
24:24
work, or maybe it's the boss of the United States and America.
24:29
We can all just kind of see like what's going to happen during
24:31
that Virgo solar eclipse we've got next week in an exact
24:35
opposition to Saturn, the versus the lunar eclipses, which were
24:42
said to signify more of the mundane events for the everyday
24:46
man, everyday person. And so we can pay attention to
24:49
maybe there's collectives of people that are being impacted
24:52
by these eclipses. And it's just something to kind
24:55
of, you know, like I said, use for investigation purposes, A
24:58
deeper investigation and observation.
25:01
If you're somebody who wants to know more and you're not just
25:04
going to take my word for it, it's really helpful.
25:07
You can even look back historically at major events
25:10
that happened to different leaders or even different groups
25:13
of people and see if they track with any significant eclipses,
25:17
especially eclipses that might be hitting or visible in that
25:22
area of the world. So there's obviously so much
25:25
that we could say about eclipses, and I am definitely
25:27
not an eclipse expert when it comes to astrology.
25:30
I do read and track eclipse cycles in my personal life and
25:33
my personal chart work, and I always work with eclipses when
25:36
I'm working with clients. But there are so many incredible
25:40
astrologers out there that have done so much work and research,
25:44
whether that's empirical research within their own client
25:47
research or also just reading through all of these incredible
25:51
astrologers throughout history and gathering all of this wisdom
25:54
to share with you. Again, I'm going to link those
25:57
resources for you below. If you found any of this
25:59
interesting and you want to know more, I highly, highly encourage
26:03
you to check those astrologers out.
26:05
And then bringing all this back to our present moment reality,
26:09
these eclipses that we are currently in, the first eclipse
26:13
is going to be a total lunar eclipse, a full moon eclipse in
26:18
Pisces on September 7th. And then the second eclipse of
26:21
this cycle is going to be a new moon partial solar eclipse at
26:26
28° of Virgo. I'm going to talk way more about
26:29
these eclipses and some of the astrological significations
26:33
impacting both of them individually and upcoming
26:36
episodes. Remember, next week I'm going to
26:38
do that full Moon rising sign horoscope for each rising sign,
26:43
and I'm also going to do a tarot card pull.
26:45
One thing you can start to think about before we get to those
26:47
episodes is the houses that Pisces and Virgo rule in your
26:51
chart. And what are the themes or the
26:53
topics of those houses? And around those topics and
26:56
themes of your Virgo Pisces houses, what are some things
27:01
that feel hidden right now during this eclipse season?
27:04
Is there something that's asking to be released around these
27:07
topics and themes, and what treasure might be?
27:10
Wedding eclipses remind us that light can disappear, but in that
27:16
pause and that shadowy space, something faded, karmic or
27:22
evolutionary can possibly breakthrough.
27:25
Whether you see eclipses as a growth edge, as a karmic lesson
27:30
or ripening, or fate itself of a Natal promise, eclipses are
27:35
always invitations to step courageously and willingly into
27:42
the next chapter. Thank you so much for joining me
27:45

going to be doing them once a month.
28:03
So I would love to hear if you have things that you're really
28:05
hungry to learn about. Otherwise, I'm usually going to
28:08
do something that's connected and woven into some of the
28:11
bigger transits of the lunar cycle that we're working
28:14
through. And it's just so fun to be able
28:17
