Every eclipse represents a pivotal point of evolution within a timeline. This timeline unfolds before you twice a year, sometimes offering critical forks and choices, other times bringing unavoidable critical events, and yet other times widening to take you forward more quickly toward your evolution and self-actualization.
This Lunar Eclipse in Virgo is paired with the Solar Eclipse in Aries, which will occur on 29 March 2025.
The Lunar Eclipse brings emotional culmination, illuminates YOUR subconscious, and represents a climax for relationships, endeavors, and situations that have concerned you over the past six months. The Eclipse energy brings revelations or completions (successful or unsuccessful), together with the corresponding emotional responses to them.
These responses will shape EVENTS that you will see unfolded in the immediate period that follows, as the energy of the next Solar Eclipse will triggers inevitable developments.
This Lunar Eclipse in Virgo is connected to, and in some ways brings to the forefront, similar themes to those you experienced during the corresponding eclipse in the same Saros cycle that took place in March 2007. Therefore, take some minutes to ponder on what was happening in your life from January to May 2007, and you will see the thematic that this eclipse will have for you. The thematic will be the same, but the aspects are now different. This means that different things will take place now, but … the issues that will arise will be the same as then, or will have the same basis.
The Eclipse occurs with the Moon near the South Node. The past may be pulling you back. Issues related to practicality, over-analysis, excessive criticism, and what is beneficial for you and what is not, may weigh heavily during this Eclipse.
The questions you are called to ask yourself in relation to the above issues are:
“Is there a recurring habit, a pattern, a condition, or some person from the past that needs re-examination? Is it time to realize something about something of the above?”
“What do I need to leave behind, and how can I move forward with greater faith in the universe, less need for control and organization? How can I relax myself and surrender more to the flow?”
All of the above is the background of this Eclipse, and this background evolves within a framework of aspects and astrological events that have considerable DYNAMICS.
1️
Mercury, the ruler of the Eclipse, is stationary at 09°31’ Aries. Exactly on the very same DEGREE WHERE THE SOLAR ECLIPSE will occur two weeks later!
This means that the two eclipses are not only connected as two successive astrological events that bring emotional outcomes (the first) and real events (the second), BUT THAT ARE ALSO CONNECTED through the planet Mercury in Aries.
Thus, issues of communication, decisions, initiatives, new beginnings, and the expression of your personal truth are EXTREMELY CRITICAL during this period.
It is important that what you think and communicate fully expresses you, but be careful that this expression does not have a competitive or combative tone. Reconsider decisions and plan initiatives.
For some, pioneering and daring ideas are likely to emerge. Issues with siblings, travel, and buying and selling require special ATTENTION during this period, and depending on how the aspects fall on your personal chart, they may or may not be favored.
2️
The difficult aspect of this Lunar Eclipse is the conjunction of the Sun to Saturn in Pisces and the opposition of Saturn to the Moon in Virgo.
This shows us exactly what I mentioned above. The pressure and sadness that this eclipse brings on emotional level, pressure that has to do with compulsions you may feel, criticisms towards yourself, and paralyzing over-analysis.
You need to take breaths. Breaths through art, through inspiration, through forgiveness where needed. You need to restrict any tendencies to escape from reality. This eclipse wants you to define specific goals as to what inspires you, and to fill your daily life with creativity. Otherwise, the feeling will be heavy, pessimistic, and disappointments will easily turn into criticism towards yourself.
3️
However, we also have the very helpful aspect of the trine and sextile that the planet Uranus from Taurus makes to the Sun and the Moon, as well as Saturn. This aspect greatly reduces the difficulties I mentioned, as it brings opportunities for changes that will have foundations, as long as you accept exactly this! That the time for RENEWAL has come.
This eclipse does not want you to analyze things too much and to nitpick. This helpful aspect tells you to operate in a completely original or unconventional way. To break the box that limits you. Dare to change yourself! But also, to demand practical and substantial changes from others.
Only through RENEWAL, INSPIRATION, and with enough FAITH in yourself, this Lunar Eclipse calls you to do what seems like a big leap! a big change! In your daily life and in your value system, in your ideologies and your constants. It seems like a big change, while in reality RENEWAL is simply THE NATURAL evolution of things.
4️
Mars from Cancer in an applying tine to the Sun, has already started moving direct for some days now, slowly but surely, and so you gradually find the courage, the will, and the strength to dare. In the coming days, it will approach to its exact aspect to the Sun and Saturn also, which shows that you will have both the stamina to act and the ability to succeed.
5️
Venus, the planet that relates to your erotic life, your self-worth, your desires, how you give and receive love, is RETROGRADE and in sextile to PLUTO. A sextile that will culminate as Venus makes its conjunction to the Sun on March 23, a week before the Solar Eclipse.
What does this mean?
That opportunities are coming for pivotal changes in your erotic and financial situation, but that at the same time things are STILL FERMENTING.
Opportunities will appear, but you will not be sure if you want, how much you want, or why you want. Persons may return from the past. Back and forth in existing relationships will be the norm.
All this lasts until April 14th, while Venus remains retrograde and as long as we are within the eclipse season. After this nothing will be the same for your romantic life. After the eclipses and after May, all will be different.
How much you will be tormented, or how magically you will find the great love, depends on how the eclipses fall on your chart and where you have 02° Aries in your horoscope, that is the degree where the next Venus Star Point will occur.
The Lunar Eclipse in Virgo is an eclipse that brings changes in a stable way, which calls you to overcome analysis and criticism of yourself or others, an eclipse that will emotionally charge you. You need to know that changes are now necessary. An eclipse that means brewing of feelings, than brings many revisions, and also disappointments if you make the mistake to not surrender to the changes and the flow of things.
The Signs the Eclipse affects
We will all experience the eclipse, and it will change situations for all of us regardless of Zodiac Sign!
The eclipse will be mostly felt as pressure for PISCES, VIRGO, GEMINI, and SAGITTARIUS persons born in the 3rd decan, or for those of you that have personal planets or your Ascendant between the degrees 20° to 28° of the above Zodiac Signs.
More renewing it will be for TAURUS, CANCER, VIRGO, SCORPIO, CAPRICORN, PISCES persons born in the middle of the 2nd decan, or the beginning of the 3rd decan, or for those of you that have personal planets or your Ascendant between the degrees 16° to 22° of the above Zodiac Signs.
The Eclipse brings big changes and life decisions for ARIES, GEMINI, LEO, LIBRA, SAGITTARIUS, and AQUARIUS persons born at the end of the first decan, or for those of you that have personal planets or your Ascendant between the degrees 08° to 11° of the above Zodiac Signs.
I wish everyone a dynamically RENEWING ECLIPSE!
