ECLIPSE SEASON IS UPON US! THE WEEK OF | 3.10-16.2025
You probably felt the energy shift even more this week…
That’s because we are about to start our eclipse season on Thursday. Eclipses are supercharged full and New Moons and the one we have this week will open up a new two year cycle of eclipses on the Virgo Pisces axis; shifting us from the previous cycle we had on the Aries Libra access.
We have our last eclipse in Aries at the end of the month which we will talk about later. So this Lunar Eclipse we have on Thursday this week is a big beautiful Full Moon in Virgo which could have us in our feelings about not being perfect. Where these perfectionistic qualities show up for you depends on where you have Virgo in your birth chart. What we can use the energies for instead of being punishingly perfectionistic, is to release our perfectionistic tendencies in a particular area of our life. Virgo also likes acts of service so where can you be of service to others? Full Moon’s are about release, so take this time to work on releasing any perfectionistic tendencies that may crop up.
Don’t overload yourself this month if possible
Remember that whatever comes up for you in relation to this eclipse will play out over the next 6 months until the next eclipse cycle.
Remember that the planetary ruler of this eclipse is Mercury. Whatever sign the planet Mercury is in in our chart gives us a specific way of communicating and thinking. Particularly within friendships. This may also mean that we may have some negative self talk around how much we are or are not accomplished or detail oriented or perfect somewhere in our lives. This is also enhanced by Saturn being conjunct the Sun, today (Wednesday), the day before the eclipse.
Are you feeling like you should be more creative than you are?
Do you feel like you have a lack of boundaries?
Are there boundaries that you could fortify? Especially when it comes to how much you open up to others or your creative process in general?
Take some time in nature or around animals. No need to spend too much time over analyzing things.
MERCURY RETROGRADE | 3.14.24 11:46PM
Hope you enjoyed this short Mercurial break before Mercury retrogrades…
The other thing happening is that on Tuesday Mercury was conjunct Venus in Pisces so we might have been feeling more open in our important and intimate relationships. You may also have felt like socializing and flirting a little more on that day or working on something artistic.
Did you get into any fun arts and crafts?
Deep into some reading or creative writing?
Remember that the overarching energies are pretty heavy, so this transit may have passed by like a fleeting sweet feeling in the midst of an otherwise chaotic life. Enjoy these moments when they come. Noticing them expands their potential for next time they show up.
So Friday we have the main event with with two transits that will further shake things up. The Sun in Pisces sextile Uranus in Taurus and Mercury stationing retrograde in Aries
Look out for confusion.
Look out for shaming, blaming, and aggressively playing the victim.
Technological issues may come up unexpectedly
Not a good sign for conflict in our personal lives and the world at large.
Try not to make any concrete plans.
If things shift on a dime, welcome the change even if it doesn’t make sense
Start making change from wherever you are at. From whatever new reality presents itself.
Mercury retrograde in Aries is a little hot headed and frustrated. You’ve been warned.
