Leaves are just beginning to turn in my neck of the woods. I planted some hardy pansies in my garden pots. Pumpkins and squashes are abundant at the local markets. Birds are heading to warmer climes and the sun is slanting more and more in the southern sky. The Autumn eclipses of 2024 are happening!
The first eclipse of the pair is a Full Moon Lunar eclipse occurring at 25 degrees Pisces on September 17.
The second eclipse of the pair will occur on October 2nd – an annular Solar Eclipse– at 10 degrees Libra.
If an eclipse hits within 3 degrees of a planet or point in your birth chart it will trigger the beginning of significant growth and change in your world. Let’s see what’s brewing in your Autumn transits! Being in the KNOW is the best way to be in the NOW, supporting you to navigate Life with ease and grace. That sounds sooo good to me – navigating with ease and grace. Yes, please!
The Full Moon at 25 degrees Pisces (opposite the Sun at 25 degrees Virgo) conjoins Neptune moving retrograde at 28 degrees Pisces. I would imagine this would be a rather dreamy Full Moon, though watch for illusions appearing to be real. Confusing fiction with fact is a hallmark of Neptunian energy. For sure hold off making major decisions until after the Moon moves into Aries on September 19.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon. This Full Moon is a partial lunar eclipse so only the top 8% of the moon will be in shadow. This Full Moon is also a SUPERMOON so it will appear larger and way brighter. FUN! Get out there and give a great big HOWL at this September Harvest Moon!
Venus at 23 degrees Libra opposes Chiron moving retrograde at 22 degrees Aries. Desire for healing aggression is in the air, aided by diplomatic, peace-loving Libran Venus.
Mercury, ruler of Virgo, at 14 degrees Virgo opposes Saturn moving retrograde at 15 degrees Pisces. Great aspect for discerning what is practical and useful and what is pure fantasy, Maybe some of that mercurial energy would be best used to put some of that Piscean non-linear stuff into form.
Uranus moving retrograde at 27 degrees Taurus squares Pluto moving retrograde at 29 degrees Capricorn. Upheaval pushing the boundaries of deep social change.
Note that Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all moving retrograde. Patience is the name of the game. Surrender to divine timing to keep yourself sane.
Jupiter in Gemini is activating your mind, perhaps to the extreme. Time communing with the natural world calms the mind.
Mars transiting Cancer encourages leadership and action-taking from a Moon-directed, emotionally nurturing connected perspective. If only….
