Pisces Lunar Eclipse September 17, 2024
A Harvest Supermoon Lunar Eclipse! This Lunar Eclipse will be a partial which can be viewed from Finland, Ukraine, Turkey, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia and Kenya.
The next Total Lunar Eclipse in North America will be on March 14th 2025 at 23 degrees Virgo.
The Pisces Full Moon in September is a favorite of mine…. the seasons in North America start to be felt and seen. Warm days with the light fading earlier in the afternoon and cooler nights. The Moon is considered the translator of light, because of its fast movement it carries energy from one planet to another. During Eclipse season we can experience change through beginnings or endings, Solar Eclipses (New Moon) tend to be seed moments and more external energies and events. The Lunar Eclipse (Full Moon) resonates with completions of a cycle, tidal energy, more emotional and internal. Do new beginnings come after endings or endings create a new beginning? Pisces keyword is “I feel”
Eclipses can change our situation in an instant, with its wild card, sometimes unpredictable energy. The word Eclipse can mean to block out, like the obscuring of one celestial body by another, or to be hidden. It can also mean to surpass, transcend, outshine, outmatch or master a situation if it is used as a verb. Not every Eclipse will produce something meaningful, but researching how Eclipse seasons through our lives have unfolded new chapters is fascinating.
Pisces in general feels its way through by merging with its environment, seeking to find a peaceful space. A water sign that rules the ocean, and loves to dissolve into the energy of nature. Pisces is intuitive by feeling the subtle nuances that it encounters, shifting gears to blend with others as it goes about its own business. Naturally reclusive and content to find its own pace. Not fond of boundaries it charts its course through feelings that become the fish’s compass. That compass can lead too far in one direction causing a course correction and a change occurs. The duality and mutability of Pisces. Similar to the ebb and flow of the tides.
On a Pisces Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse we know we are at the brightest part of the lunation, heightened emotions are classic reactions to this energy, positively or negatively. The Full Moon at the time of Eclipse has separated from Saturn in Pisces, feeling the responsibilities or expectations put on it by others. Something is fleeting but serious at the moment. Maybe a test of maturity, that can be understood in time and forgiven. Mature Pisces reflection and compassion is unmatched. Saturn in Pisces is opposite to Mercury in Virgo, requiring us to pause and give some serious thought to a situation. What needs clarification? What details did we miss? What words have not been spoken?
The Full Moon applies by sextile (excites and engages) to Uranus Taurus adding a feeling of awakening the changes you’d hoped for, with a little extra effort. The Pisces Full Moon has two rulers, Jupiter the traditional ruler and Neptune the modern ruler. They are both connected to this Eclipse, describing the translation of light that the Moon energy carries. Neptune in Pisces is 3 degrees away from Eclipse degree, meaning they conjoin shortly after Eclipse. Moon/Neptune contacts can heighten sensitivities, a highly intuitive timeframe. It can also create misunderstandings by misinterpreting moods, communications may be unclear.
The Full Moon/Eclipse will also be separating from a square to Jupiter in Gemini, you may have learned a lot about the area in your life that Gemini rules (House placement) The Moon in Pisces feels and Jupiter in Gemini thinks expansively or exaggerates that feeling, are you more generous with your communications? Are your feelings well received? Are you optimistic about moving forward with what you’ve learned or possibly ready to emotionally explore a new chapter? This Pisces Lunar Eclipse may highlight these ideas.
