This week carries the weight and wonder of eclipse season. It is a threshold, a doorway, a passage into endings and beginnings that are bigger than the everyday. Eclipses shift timelines, they stir the soul, and they invite us to release what no longer aligns so that we may step closer to our truth.
On September 7, we experience a Pisces Lunar Eclipse, dissolving old layers and closing chapters that began months or even years ago. On September 10, the Sun meets the South Node in Virgo, illuminating old patterns and asking us to release self-criticism, perfectionism, and stories of not-enoughness. On September 13, Mercury meets the Sun in Virgo in a Cazimi, a rare moment of clarity and rebirth for the mind.
Together, these movements form a week of endings and illumination, of release and renewal, of surrender and clarity. They weave together the themes of eclipse season: closure, purification, and becoming.
September 7, 2025: Pisces Full Moon Lunar Eclipse
A Lunar Eclipse in Pisces is no ordinary Full Moon. Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, holds the energy of dissolution, surrender, and return to Source. When the Moon is eclipsed here, we are invited to let go – not just of external circumstances, but of old identities, subconscious patterns, and the illusions that keep us tethered to separation.
Pisces dissolves boundaries. It reminds us that endings are not failures but passages into wholeness. During this eclipse, you may feel waves of emotion rising to the surface. Old stories or grief may come up for release. Dreams may speak more loudly. The veils between worlds are thin, and the unconscious seeks expression.
This total lunar eclipse is here for deep healing. It asks you to let go of the need to control. To trust the currents of life. To allow what is ending to dissolve with compassion. In its wake, you are freed to step into a new chapter – one rooted in deeper trust and soulful alignment.
Eclipses bring change that cannot be forced. They shift us onto paths we could not have chosen for ourselves, but which ultimately carry us closer to truth. Trust the endings. They are sacred.

September 10: Sun conjunct South Node in Virgo
Just days after the eclipse, the Sun in Virgo meets the South Node, highlighting the habits, beliefs, and patterns of the past that we are being called to release.
Virgo, in it’s hurt, can cling to perfectionism. It can hold tightly to the story that we are only worthy if we are flawless, efficient, useful. The South Node here points to the karmic weight of self-criticism, of measuring worth by productivity, of striving to prove ourselves by doing rather than being.
This conjunction is an illumination. It reveals clearly what we are ready to let go of. You may notice the old voice of not-enoughness rising louder than usual. See it not as truth, but as something surfacing for healing. This is an invitation to soften, to release, and to choose compassion over critique.
With the Pisces Lunar Eclipse just behind us, this transit continues the theme of release, but now with clarity. What was felt emotionally with the eclipse is illuminated in the light of day. This is the moment of recognition – when you see the old story for what it is and choose differently.
September 13: Mercury Cazimi in Virgo
As the week closes, Mercury joins the Sun in Virgo in a Cazimi. A Cazimi is the entry of a planet into the “heart of the Sun,” where it is purified, illuminated, and reborn. For Mercury, ruler of the mind, this is a moment of clarity and renewal.
In Virgo, Mercury is sharp, discerning, and clear. The Cazimi offers a breakthrough – a sudden insight, a shift in perception, a moment when the fog clears and the path ahead becomes visible. After the emotional release of the eclipse and the illumination of old patterns by the South Node, this transit feels like a breath of clarity.
This is a beautiful day for journaling, meditation, or intentional conversations. Insights gained now can feel like seeds of wisdom, guiding the next chapter. The mind is reborn – clearer, sharper, more aligned with truth.
Weekly Astrology Forecast: September 7 – 13, 2025
This weeks three cosmic movements are not separate, they weave together a single story.
The Pisces Lunar Eclipse dissolves, releases, and closes. It is the end of an old cycle, the completion of chapters that cannot move forward with us.
The Sun conjunct South Node illuminates what those chapters contained — the old stories of perfectionism, not-enoughness, and striving that are ready to be laid to rest.
The Mercury Cazimi offers clarity and rebirth, guiding the mind into new patterns of thought, new ways of perceiving ourselves, new stories to live by.
Together, they form a week of sacred release and renewal. It is not a week to force forward movement. It is a week to surrender, to notice, to let go, and to trust. The clarity will come. The renewal will unfold. But first, we must allow the endings their space.
This week, the cosmos opens a doorway of endings and renewal. The Pisces Lunar Eclipse invites us into profound release, dissolving old stories and identities. The Sun’s conjunction with the South Node in Virgo shines light on perfectionism and self-criticism, asking us to let them go. And the Mercury Cazimi in Virgo gifts us with clarity, insight, and rebirth of the mind.
Together, these movements weave a story of release, illumination, and renewal. Trust the endings. Welcome the clarity. And allow yourself to step into the next chapter lighter, freer, and more aligned with truth.
