Lunar Eclipse in Pisces – 9/7/2025 10:09 pm pdt

We are all connected in nature and psyche to what the famous psychiatrist and psycho-analyst Carl Jung called “The Collective Unconscious.”

In times of universal stress, we can often find ourselves particularly sensitive to energies that we may be unaware of in other times.

This year, with its theme of metamorphic change is one of those periods of stress, and September’s upcoming eclipse season is a key event in an already tense landscape.

The eclipse season of September 2025 begins with a lunar eclipse on September 7th and ends with a solar eclipse on the 21st. You may start to experience the influence of these eclipses any time from around two weeks before and after the season starts, so from mid-August until it finishes, the beginning of October 2025.

Every six months when an eclipse occurs it connects with your own horoscope through being located in different personal houses and with unique aspects to your own chart, it also adds its cycle’s meaning into your life. Look to where mid degrees Pisces in your chart is, as wells as planets in Pisces and Virgo ( the current North and South Nodes) and Gemini and Sagittarius.

All eclipses each belong to a unique cycle, called a “saros” and vary in meaning. We only meet each eclipse cycle once every 18.5 years. The lunar eclipse of September 7th is connected in a series to the lunar eclipse of 8/28/2007. According to Astrologer Bernadette Brady this series is linked to energies that are revealing and that "contain energies permeable and subtle, requiring a conscious focus on avoiding stress. “

This Lunar eclipse is called a Blood Moon, as the shadow of the Earth blocks the reflected light of the Moon, and it can appear red. It also takes place 2.7 days before the moon reaches perigee, its closest point from Earth for the month, making it even stronger.

The powerful total eclipse will be visible in the night sky in Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa. Even though Americans won’t be able to see it, we will still feel it strongly.

Remember, what is revealed in the lunar eclipse is something that can be worked on or through utilizing the energy of the upcoming solar eclipse. This energy can cut out habits, situations, mindsets or even people from our lives that have either lived out their usefulness or proven to be unnecessary or unhealthy.

Here are some hints on what can come up for you, read by Sun/Ascendant:

Aries: Time to cut out any wishful thinking and get real. What is actually healthy for you? How can you balance your subconscious dreams with real practices? Think of this as an artistic discipline, like putting down on canvas what you see in your mind’s eye.

Taurus: Realizing that you need community, need friends and support systems is paramount now. “No (Wo-)Man is an Island” wrote John Donne. How you do this- is by getting out the address book and calling on friends, lovers, children and making a date. Get creative and be rewarded.

Gemini: Your “world” is being, has been rocked and your “security” gets the spotlight. Career, Home, Parents, as well as “status” roles need to get a checkup. Be more present and conscious of what you need to get through this time- and be honest about what you see.

Cancer: Travel, both literal and metamorphical comes up. As well as your personal mindset, and ability to communicate effectively. Cancer can be sensitive and easily hurt by fortunes slings and arrows. Time to get out the clipboard and make a gratitude list, along with planning an upcoming dream vacation.

Leo: Lunar Eclipse in your 8th house can describe issues to do with resources shared, such as inheritance or mortgages, themes of security and money come up. What you may need to do if a partner or intimate’s resources are “eclipsed” out etc. Time for Leo to make a plan that focuses on their strengths. You can do it.

Virgo: It’s all about balancing out you and your partners contributions to a shared life/business/etc. Who is doing the heavy lifting? Or have you neglected to see how they need you? Regardless, this lunar eclipse may bring up an event that requires your attention- and compassion. Do your best.

Libra: Like Aries, it is all about balancing your health, mentally and physically. Health issues can come up that may make you have to say no to others. It’s not your “responsibility” to make everything better for others, especially when it drains your own well-being. You know this, so let this message affirm it is ok to put your oxygen mask on first.

Scorpio: What do you love? What makes you feel joy? Are you getting enough of it? Right now, you may feel as if there is a crisis- of happiness. This is your “feeling” but it may also be that you need, like Taurus to reach out for help. Your truest friends are there to lend a shoulder and there is a silver lining under the clouds.

Sagittarius: Like Gemini, there is a feeling of foundational instability. Your usual, I can do anything stance has been challenged by circumstance. You are a strong and capable person, but this is just a quick comment that things do not expand constantly. Allow yourself to just chill and handle any home/family issues. After the equinox new vistas will emerge.

Capricorn: Buddhists says the “lower” mind, is a state of thinking affected by afflicted emotions and ignorance. The main practice of improving the mind is to cultivate mindfulness through detaching from the afflicted thoughts, allowing the mind to slip into unattached oneness with all. This is a good practice for Capricorn during eclipse season.

Aquarius: Like Leo, themes around resources come up. Is there enough? Money and debts, budgets, costs, home improvements, all these can drag one into a state. Take the big picture approach if something comes up around security or with the things you own. There are always ways to get what you need, and you will find them.

Pisces: You may have been getting it on all fronts. This eclipse can bring up scenarios to deal with that seem out of blue, but actually have been lurking in the shadows. No matter what, things are a little dramatic and you are feeling the feels. You will be ok though, rely on your innate faith in life, your amazing imaginal, intuitive gifts and ride the waves.
