Our ancestors once held their breath beneath the eclipse, stalling verdicts and sealing lips until the sky gave them permission. Darkness meant something then. And it still does now. On September 7, the Full Moon in Pisces may flood us with a tide of revelations we didn’t ask for.
By September 21, the New Moon in Virgo sharpens the edges, demanding precision in the rubble. Two eclipses, two portals and we, tender humans, stand right at the crossroads. So which way should you turn? That’s the riddle.
Here’s your guide to making the most of eclipse season.
Helping you figure out what you desire
Eclipses help you to see things that have been wandering in your blindspot. They pull into focus what has been quietly shaping your choices, what you’ve been circling around without naming. Sometimes it’s a truth you’ve been avoiding, other times it’s a possibility you couldn’t yet imagine. But particularly, this Full Moon in Pisces coming up is all about opening you up to your own creative potential.

Pisces dissolves the walls you’ve built around yourself, softening the places where you’ve been rigid, and letting inspiration seep in through the cracks.
Cutting through delusions
As much as being a little delulu can take you far, this is the prime time to reorient your relationship to faith so it doesn’t lean into the sticky side of illusions. There’s a difference between holding a vision and clinging to a fantasy. One nourishes you, the other keeps you waiting.
Pop the kettle on and ask yourself “is your faith helping you move and expand, or is it keeping you in a loop of wishful thinking?” Put it this way, it’s a source of inner conviction that works hand in hand with the tangible world, trusting that what you imagine can take shape. But it only does so if you stay grounded enough to tend to it.
Clearing the old to make space for the new
Eclipses help you to wash away the old to make space for the new. Think of them as cosmic tides they sweep in to clear what’s grown stagnant. Even if you didn’t realise you were still holding onto it.
Old narratives, expired relationships, outdated versions of yourself have a way of dissolving their grip under this cosmic light. But less about loss, and more about renewal. What leaves creates a vacuum, a fertile opening for what is more aligned to arrive. The washing away can feel disorienting in the moment, but it’s how life makes room for you to step into a new chapter with lighter hands and a freer heart.
An increase in synchronicities
Pay attention to your dreams and the signs on the billboards you walk past on your way to work, because eclipses have a way of delivering messages that are too precise, to chalk up as a coincidence. They thin the veil between the conscious and the unconscious, making synchronicities louder and harder to ignore.
During eclipse season, the extraordinary hides in plain sight. You just have to notice. So, journey well and stay hydrated. The more you nourish your body, the more clearly you can hear the whispers of your intuition and receive what this passage is trying to show you.
