Have you felt a shift in the atmosphere? Are you suddenly overcome with intense emotions? That’s because the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse 2025 has arrived, alongside other wacky astrological occurrences, and it means serious business.
I’m glad you’ve consulted this piece to see how best to work with the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse because it’s not like a regular Full Moon or glowing spiritual occasion, it’s actually quite complex and volatile.
Read on for everything you need to know…
What does the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse mean in astrology?
When the sun, moon and Earth align, we call this an eclipse. During a lunar eclipse, the moon switches up its look, causing the redness of the Blood Moon.
In astrology, the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse isn’t a time of action, it’s a time of reflection, release, and surrendering to that which you cannot control.
This particular event occurs in the emotional water sign Pisces — so you just know we’re in for it!
The Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse falls in emotive Pisces.
This Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse is basically the universe ripping off those rose-tinted glasses and saying: “Okay, time to get real”. A lot of us lean on little escape routes – scrolling, daydreaming, binge-watching – to avoid what’s hard. But this eclipse is here to wake us up and remind us what’s actually in front of us.
For some, that wake-up call might come in the form of sudden curveballs or challenges that feel rough in the moment but ultimately lead to growth. For others, it’s about finally making that tough choice you’ve been avoiding – the one that secretly makes life smoother and more aligned once you commit.
Because this eclipse is happening in Pisces – the zodiac’s dreamy, emotional artist – paired with Saturn Retrograde and the North Node, the vibes are very “face your stuff or it’ll face you”. You’ll either have to buckle down on something you’ve been procrastinating, or you’ll finally see what’s been blocking you and feel ready to release it. Either way, clarity is coming – and it’s setting you free.
Lunar eclipses have a way of shining a spotlight on what’s been weighing us down in order to help us release it and move on. It sends serious, but very necessary, cosmic plot-twists our way that spark karmic endings.
Can I manifest and charge my crystals?
Hard no! The Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse isn’t a time for bountiful spellwork, only for sending bad vibes away.
Here’s why.
What spells or rituals should I cast during the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse?
So forget manifestation energy, the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse isn’t about summoning, it’s about casting away. It’s about releasing and letting go of what’s not serving you and finding healing, peace and comfort.
Break bad luck spell
Have you been suffering a string of bad luck? The Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse is the perfect time to fix that! This candle spell stops that negative energy from reaching you and brings good luck.
What you’ll need:
- A white candle.
- Olive oil.
- Ground red pepper.
- Lighter or matches.
Method:
Carve your wishes and desires into the candle, along with your full name and date of birth.
Anoint the candle with olive oil and roll it in red pepper, then light it.
Jump over the candle three times to signify your soul rising above the bad luck.
Burn the candle all the way down (safely!) and discard of the remnants.
Binding ritual
Is there a person, place or situation causing you grief? Try casting a Binding Spell during the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse to send it away. Hexes and curses are bad karma, so a Binding Ritual is the perfect solution. It won’t cause harm to anyone — but it will stop them from causing harm to you.
What you’ll need:
- Cord or ribbon.
- Scissors.
- Something that represents what’s upsetting you (could even be the name of a person or situation on paper).
Method:
Keep it in a dark space in your home.
Take the ribbon and tie it around the item as you focus heavily on the matter that’s plaguing you. It’s very important that you bind with intention, so do some deep reflection as you’re going.
Continue wrapping the cord around the item until it’s completely covered.
Cut the cord — again, with intent! — and tie it like a bow.
You may recognise the Binding Spell from the iconic ’90s witch movie The Craft.
Unblocking Ritual
Feel like you’re cursed? This spell lifts said curse, so to speak. It cosmically removes any blockages from your path to success and happiness.
What you’ll need:
- A crystal (clear quartz for healing, rose quartz for relationships, tiger’s eye, black obsidian or tourmaline for protection, citrine for success).
Method:
Close your eyes. Take the crystal and hold it in your hands, focusing on your goals and situations that have stopped you from achieving them.
When you’re done processing the shit part, then it’s time for the good part. Visualise all your goals coming to life. As you do this, move the crystal around your forehead in a circular motion.
Carry the crystal with you indefinitely until your goals start to materialise. Not just during the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse, but for the next little while until you feel change has taken place.
Blessed be, witches. Hope the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse takes out the trash so you can find happiness and peace in the future.
