The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Virgo has arrived bringing eclipse season to a fever pitch. Current events are aligning quite literally with this moment in astrology. It’s helpful to remember that the planets are a mirror for the experience we’re having, and we dictate our fate down here on Earth.

The themes of this eclipse include letting go of outdated routines, dropping old expectations and limiting beliefs, and allowing yourself to prioritize what aligns with your values. Solar eclipses obscure the light of Sun which is our life force, our identity, and our vitality. If you’re feeling a loss of confidence or extreme exhaustion, that is all par for the course. Give your body the rest and care it needs.

And just so you know, you’ve already made it through some of the toughest astrology of the year. In case no one has told you - you’re doing a great job!

We’re in the midst of eclipse season with the September 7th Lunar Eclipse behind us and the upcoming solar eclipse on September 21st ahead of us. This week the Sun and Mercury dive into the South Node encourage us to continue to release, clean out, and surrender. Sometimes this can manifest as intense exhaustion or an energetic hangover - all to be expected as the moon wanes after a lunar eclipse. What is unusual is the out-of-bounds state of Pluto in Aquarius! We haven’t experienced this since the 1950s and its historical significance can certainly be felt in the collective at the moment.

Fortunately, we have some helpful, clarifying, and healing transits coming to our aid. Mercury will meet the Sun this weekend offering us a dose of clear thinking. Soon thereafter Mercury will oppose Saturn inviting everyone to slow down, pause, take a breath, and think it through.

On Monday, September 15th, Venus and Mars will be harmoniously connecting while they both make aspects to Chiron, the wounded healer. You might find that this eclipse season unveils the perfect moment to have some healing conversations with your partner, a friend, or even yourself.
