We are entering a portal of transformation & change:
See below for my musings and analysis of our Eclipse this coming week, which imbues the coming 6 months cycle, as we begin to cycle in Virgo & Pisces axis…

On Monday 30th 6pm BST I am holding an Online session for exploring the basics of Eclipses and the Moon! Join us here.
That eclipse season is falling over Equinox is pretty potent!
Equinox marks the turning point between Summer and Winter, like a 90 degree angle of shift, where one direction bends into another. This can feel like a jolt, gear change, turbulent, thrilling, nauseating.
A whole array of possible experiences that we might have, depending on our own bodies, constitutions, pre-existing experiences, the environment around us, and so on.
Eclipses hark to our Eternal experience as souls, who exist beyond time and space continuum, and support us in our present-state human life.
Moon and Sun interact; Moon portrays & mirrors our body & our every day existence in mother matter Earth. Sun is the Light of our origins, the Heartbeat of our Multiverses.
Together these two dance to bring out deeper, older timelines within us, supporting our remembrance of who we are and where we come from, which in an inverted sense, propels where we are going in this human existence now.
Virgo Sun/Sol, present with Mercury/Hermes who is the guardian of this constellation.
Lunar Moon will be partially eclipsed on this first encounter. She will be floating in Pisces, held by Jupiter who is guided by Mercury (from Gemini)…
Meaning that this Full Moon Eclipse leading up to & after the 18th September is bringing us home to the Wisdom of Virgoan earthy mundane reality.
Purity of devotion, protecting of sacred seed, intention.
We analyse what has been, in this Outward time of the year; we decipher, sort and filter every single detail.
The perfect balance of what is taken in, and what is discarded.
Careful sifting of what feels & communicates authentically, what benefits the ongoing birthing of Humanity in the most reverent way to the Cycle of Life, in this Human Body incarnate.
It’s the time and season to begin hunkering in and preparing for entering the Yin/Inward half of the year, coming back to the Earth of our body.
In medical astrology, Virgo corresponds to the small intestine & digestive system in general. Apt, seeing as this organ plays a vital role in discerning what to absorb & receive nourishment from, and what to eliminate. For the sake of long-term survival & well-being.
It is cut-throat.
If the seeds are not stored from Summer’s harvest, there may not be a harvest next year.
If we do not gather the fruits (metaphorical & tangible) of this our full capacity for assertion, boundary and expression, how will we support ourselves in times of greater challenge, pain or suffering?
Take stock and gather, make time to sift, carefully, attentively, slowly…
Naturopathically, it’s an ideal time for cleansing our bowels, as in: allowing them rest from their hard work, so we might be able to better organise our digestion from the perspective of our insides. Leaky gut, inflammation, constipation are all so common now. In our era of processed living, high stress factors, and inherited trauma, as well as societal & collective dis-ease.
Our digestion is part of the flame of Life within our bodies.
Simplifying our eating; what, how and when we eat, is something which brings nourishment and relief to our chronically tired and overworked tummy and intestines.
This in turn allows the Fire to purify, by becoming sensitive to what does feed our fire and what does not.
We can lose a lot of our vital Life force energy to miss-directed foods and inefficient digestion, wreaking havoc on our immune systems in the long-run.
And essentially, draining our capacity to fully live.
So, in one way, this Eclipse is an opportunity for sorting. In the face of deeper chaos and disorder, it’s an opportunity to clean our own vessel/house, so we can be present with greater autonomy, clarity and balance.
There’s always a lot more one can muse on, so keep reading /& feeling inside, and researching, if that interests you. I suggest you pick up on one or two things that really stick and are true to your experience and environment, and seek inner knowing and spiritual guidance to support you on this journey.
Many blessings & support. Thank You for reading with me.
