A Great Surrender

September 7, 2025 — On Sunday, a Total Lunar Eclipse forms at 15° Pisces, opening the eclipse vortex. A Solar Eclipse follows on September 21. Between them lies a potent window where karma accelerates. For the next two weeks, time speeds up, auspicious synchronicities abound, and inner shifts help us purge what no longer serves us.
Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth’s shadow falls across the Moon, revealing what’s been hidden. If we’ve been dishonest, even with ourselves, undeniable truth now surfaces. This is the moment to dissolve attachments so we can move further toward our highest potentials.
Pisces, the final sign of the zodiac, governs compassion, dreams, and spirituality. With the Moon eclipsed here, illusions and longings are stripped bare, making space for clarity through grief, and release. This eclipse forms a supportive trine to Jupiter in Cancer, offering grace and protection as we let go. We may remember that love, nourishment, and renewal are closer than we realize. The key is to quiet our minds and trust, rather than overthink.
Mercury in Virgo opposes this lunation, urging us to notice details and ground into discernment. This is the balance of the Virgo-Pisces axis. Virgo refines and analyzes, while Pisces surrenders and transcends. Together, they remind us to soften without drifting, and to stabilize without hardening. Emotions are cresting, dreams are vivid, and sensitivities are heightened. Pisces floods us with feeling, igniting the longing to blur boundaries and merge with something greater than ourselves. However, this eclipse is demanding spiritual vigilance. While tears may flow, we cannot allow ourselves to drown or absorb the weight of the world.
This Full Moon asks us to release fantasies, disappointments, and narratives that obscure truth, making space for new possibilities that are both miraculous and practical. The Solar Eclipse later this month will be even more dramatic, as unresolved stories surface for confrontation and closure through early October. By tending to our bodies, nervous systems, and relationships with great care, we can prepare for both the tension and subsequent peace that lie around the corner.
Our relational patterns are shifting. A rebirth of love and connection is beginning to vibrate from the ground up, calling us into a new world.
PISCES LUNAR ECLIPSE ASPIRATION
On this Pisces Lunar Eclipse, may we dissolve illusions and clear space for truth. May we soften into unconditional love while maintaining discernment, remembering that heaven exists on earth when we tend to the details of each day.
