My dear celestial travelers, take a deep breath—because the universe has quite the lineup for us on March 13-14, 2025. We're getting a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, and if that wasn't enough, Venus is in retrograde and Mercury turns retrograde in the wee hours on March 15th. And, Saturn is also in a tight conjunction with the Sun in Pisces. Translation? This event isn't just an eclipse—it's a full-blown cosmic intervention. It will be particularly significant due to its placement in Virgo, a sign governing health, service, work, and routines. Combining the Full Moon and the eclipse amplifies themes of releasing outdated patterns, healing, and aligning with one's higher purpose.
Lunar eclipses are supercharged full moons, bringing endings, revelations, and moments of profound emotional clarity. They shine a light on what's hidden, sometimes gently and sometimes like a neon sign flashing. This one is in Virgo, the sign of precision, healing, and sacred order, meaning it's time to physically, emotionally, and spiritually clean house, to clear out what no longer serves us, whether that's outdated routines, relationships, or actual clutter.
Now, let's discuss Mercury and Venus in retrograde because they're adding layers to this already transformative energy.
Mercury retrograde means miscommunications, tech glitches, and a general sense of "Wait… what just happened?" It's a time to review, reflect, and redo rather than rush ahead.
Venus retrograde stirs up themes around love, self-worth, and values. Old relationship patterns might resurface—not necessarily to restart, but to be healed and released.
Saturn conjunct with the Sun brings topics around boundaries, responsibilities, structures, all in the reality dissolving sign of Pisces.
So, what does this all mean? In general it means, slow down. Breathe. Be gentle with yourself. This eclipse is not here to break you but to set you free. If emotions swell, let them. If clarity comes, trust it. If something falls away, know that space is opening for something truer.
Above all, remember: you are not alone in this. We're all moving through the great unfolding together, one cosmic wave at a time. So hold yourself with love, find stillness where you can, and trust the process. The universe knows what it's doing—even if it feels a little messy right now.
