Hello, my friends! I had every intention of getting my usual weekly update out to you last week and somehow in my current travel escapades I forgot to hit that “publish” button. So, thanks for your understanding, and don’t you worry I will more than make it up to you in the coming weeks with some extra content.
Today we get a sneak peek on what is come over the next 2.5 years as we welcome a brand new eclipse series along the Virgo-Pisces axis. All the other eclipses we have experienced this year have been on the Aries-Libra axis. Although the lunar nodes (which are the points that define eclipses) are still in Aries and Libra, consider this Partial Pisces Lunar Eclipse the amuse bouche to prepare our taste buds for what is to come when the nodes do actually move in late January 2025 and remain until February 2027. See exact dates of this eclipse series below. The last time we experienced eclipses on this axis was 2015 - 2017, so don’t be surprised if similar themes (but likely with an entirely new perspective on your part) reemerge.
September 17, 2024 — Lunar Eclipse at 25° Pisces

Eclipses are powerful portals of closure, endings, discoveries, and revelations. They are times that often feel “fated” - where things come and go from our lives with surprise, but in retrospect they always make sense within the context of a much larger picture. Time gets wonky during eclipse portals, as eclipses operate in 9 and 18-year cycles. The happenings during eclipses are VERY big picture, which is why things can feel like they're coming out of left field. Because let's be real, most of us aren't thinking about our 18-year life plan.
This Pisces Full Moon Partial Lunar Eclipse is serving up a cocktail of closure, release, healing and emotional processing with a twist of psychic awareness. Consider it a goodbye party for our old emotional baggage while simultaneously opening a portal to the mystical unknown. We have Neptune, the planet of illusion and delusion cozying up to the eclipse and Uranus, the planet of shock and revolution, as well as Saturn, the planet of discernment and discipline, playing best supporting actors. It’s def giving personal alchemy, so get ready for the inner revolution baby. With such heavy hitting outer planets involved in this eclipse, the way this effects us personally AND collectively at the same damn time may have us all feeling a bit foggy. Don't be shocked if some major tea gets spilled on the collective level. This eclipse has 'truth bomb' written all over it, potentially bringing some long-hidden secrets into the light. On a personal level, you might experience an 'aha!' moment that makes you want to change direction faster than a cat chasing a laser pointer.
And here's the kicker: all this happens by you just BEING. Yes, you heard me right - DO NOTHING. I know I normally give you rituals and meditations up the wazoo in my lunar guides. But eclipses, in my humble cosmic opinion, are NOT for magic. The luminaries are compromised, so it's not a time to be casting spells or setting intentions, my celestial sweethearts. If you do, things may not play out as you've planned. I'm not gonna tell you what to do with your life, but I would suggest laying low, taking a bath, resting, and allowing whatever needs to rise to the surface to do so as you simply witness it. Here’s an oldie but goodie video of why astrologers tell ya NOT to do anything on eclipses. If you do anything, check out what house is ruled by Pisces in your chart for some deeper insight on what area of your life is about to undergo some serious transformation.
Remember, the last time we experienced eclipses on this axis was 2015-2017, so don't be surprised if similar themes reemerge. But here's the twist - you're not the same person you were back then. You've grown, evolved, and probably changed your hair at least three times since then. So while the themes might be familiar, your perspective on them will likely be entirely new.
Sending big hugs your way as we ride the eclipse season wave. The next one, a Libra Solar Eclipse, will arrive on October 2nd. We’re officially in the eclipse portal babes, enjoy the ride.
Below are a few other cosmic happenings this week.
Wednesday, September 18th: Mercury in Virgo Opposite Saturn in Pisces Finding the balance between practicality and imagination is key.
Thursday, September 19th: Sun in Virgo Trine Uranus in Taurus Practical innovation is the name of the game. Embrace the urge to shake things up, but in a demure way.
Friday, September 20th: Sun in Virgo Opposite Neptune in Pisces Finding the balance between getting stuff done and letting your mind wander is crucial.
Saturday, September 22nd: Sun enters Libra, Fall Equinox We say goodbye to the Sun as we welcome Libra Season and the official start to autumn. We’re kicking off a season of harmony, diplomacy, and maybe a few too many apple-picking Instagram posts.
Libra season is all about:
Cultivating relationships
SMALL TALK (much to my demise)
Seeking harmony and avoiding conflict (sometimes to a fault, let's be real)
Appreciating beauty in all its forms (yes, that includes your latest Target haul)
Pursuing justice and fairness
Charming EVERYONE’S pants off
Stay tuned for more thoughts on Fall Equinox which you will find in a few days in my Libra Season Guide!
