Eclipse Season, Transformation, the Blood Moon, and How to Work With the Energy
Okay babe face, buckle up. September is bringing some big cosmic shifts with our second and final eclipse season of the year. This is a time of fated endings and beginnings, the kind of energy that closes chapters you may have been holding onto and opens doors you did not even know existed. Eclipses get a bad reputation, but remember that these eclipse portals ultimately SERVE you. This is a time to challenge yourself to trust, release control, and go with the flow (pun intended… since the full moon is in Pisces… get it?)
Here is what’s happening:
· A Total Lunar Eclipse in Pisces on September 7, 2025
· A Solar Eclipse in Virgo on September 22, 2025
Eclipses are not your average new or full moons. They are more like plot twists that come in to align you with what is meant for you, even if the path takes an unexpected turn.
The “Blood Moon”
The term “Blood Moon” comes from that stunning red glow the Moon gets during a total lunar eclipse. This happens because while the Earth blocks the Sun’s direct light, some sunlight still sneaks through Earth’s atmosphere. The blue light scatters, the red light bends, and boom, the Moon turns a coppery red (I’m not a science girl but found this cool so I asked Chat don’t @ me).
Throughout history, this red Moon was seen as powerful and mysterious.
· Many Indigenous cultures saw it as a spiritual sign or message.
· Medieval Europeans often thought it was a warning or omen.
· In ancient Mesopotamia, a red Moon was believed to foretell big changes for rulers or empires.
Today we know the science behind it, but the spiritual vibes are still there, baby! At least… if you want them to be.
What September’s Lunar Eclipse Brings
September 7: Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse in Pisces
This eclipse marks a big moment of release. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, connected to endings, surrender, spirituality, and intuition (I always associate the energy with Dumbledore). When the Moon is eclipsed in Pisces, we are asked to let go of the illusions, attachments, or emotional weight that has been holding us back.
Because this one aligns with the North Node, it is clearing space for what is meant to come next, even if that means saying goodbye to something familiar.
How to Move Through Eclipse Season
Here is my best advice for riding this rollercoaster:
1. Surrender to the process
This is not the time to force things or push for specific outcomes. Let the shifts happen. Trust that whatever leaves or begins now is part of the bigger plan.
2. Rest and take care of yourself
Eclipses can be emotionally and physically draining. Think naps, gentle walks, nourishing food, and quiet time.
3. Journal and reflect instead of taking action
These are inner-work vibes. Write it out, meditate, or just sit in stillness to hear your intuition more clearly.
4. Keep rituals simple
Skip the big manifestation ceremonies. Focus on release. Write down what you are ready to let go of, then safely burn or bury it.
5. Stay open and flexible
Eclipses often bring surprises you did not see coming. Remember that what falls away is clearing space for something BETTER.
6. Protect your energy
Limit drama, spend time in nature, use supportive crystals like Labradorite or Black Tourmaline, or try calming/grounding essential oils like Frankincense or Sacred Mountain.
Eclipse Ritual Ideas
· Dream Journal: Keep a notebook by your bed. Pisces energy plus eclipse energy equals major dream messages.
· Compassion Bath: Add Epsom salts and lavender or chamomile to a warm bath. Imagine stress and heaviness washing away as the water flows down the drain. Add a rose quartz to the tub.
· Emotional Release Ritual: Write down what you are ready to release, then burn, bury, or tear up the paper safely.
