”Change – a deep and sometimes painful realisation that the previous You didn’t make it but the current You survived” Andrea Balt.
Lorna Bevan – Big forces are at play -nothing less than a shift in the zeitgeist. Frame it as akin to the scenery changing between acts in the theatre. Some people believe that the painted scenery is real, immoveable, just how it is. It’s not until the Wizard’s props collapse that the truth of the illusion is revealed.
The Super Moon Lunar eclipse at 25 Pisces on September 17th is conjunct Saturn and Neptune in the last sign -the alpha/omega point- a harbinger of the epochal Saturn/Neptune extended conjunction in Aries between 2025/26.
While we are still coming to terms with the wreckage from the incredible intensity of the 2020 Saturn–Pluto conjunction, this Saturn–Neptune conjunction is the next jumbo milestone of the decade. The Saturn–Neptune cycle is what empires are made of, and also what takes them down. During their last conjunction in 1989, the Berlin Wall fell and the USSR crumbled.
Saturn and Neptune conjunct the Moon are opening a process now that will last until 2028 of sobering up around previous delusions and also no longer being certain what’s actually real anymore.
Lord of Time and Karma Saturn and farseeing Neptune contradict each other in many ways. Saturn represents stone-cold reality, the permafrost of factual truth and factual limits, the boundary between the known and the unknown.
Neptune is a fog or a mist prone to suggestion that faithfully reflects your projections, the intangible substance of your ideals, dreams, and illusions. When Saturn and Neptune get together, they cancel each other out: Saturn scrutinises, fact-checks and debunks Neptune’s smoke and mirrors, while Neptune erodes Saturn’s certainty like an ocean dissolves a rock formation
This is the first in a set of eclipses falling along the Virgo – Pisces axis, continuing until February 2027. The last lunar eclipse on this degree was on September 7 2006. Think back to changes that were happening then.
Frame this Lunar Eclipse as a prompt, nudge, or push to make a course correction in Pisces/Virgo ruled areas of life in your chart.
Collaborate with the Equinox Eclipse:
remind yourself that this deep space eclipse wave is not head stuff – it’s somatic, physical, integrative
take quiet time along with extra sleep and hydration around September 17th -never act on an eclipse
take inventory of what’s working /not working
when faced with a choice, trust your own instant physical feedback loop -does it drain you or fill you with energy?
make two lists: what you need to resolve or eliminate and what you are compelled to create
weed out old entanglements
