The 🌕🌑eclipses are about to return, and with them comes change—either now or several weeks from now. I feel you will like the changes that come up, for they will bring productivity and progress, qualities you value. The 🌕🌑eclipses will arrive in the ♓Pisces-♍Virgo family of signs, and those are signs that blend beautifully with your ♑Capricorn Sun.
You have experienced some difficult 🌕🌑eclipses in 2023 and 2024 when the 🌕🌑eclipses were in ♎Libra and ♈Aries, but these ♍Virgo-♓Pisces 🌕🌑eclipses are nothing like those. While I cannot see everything in your personal unique chart from where I sit, I can see that the planets will be unusually friendly to one another this month. That is a good sign pointing toward upbeat developments coming your way.
Things that happen at 🌕🌑eclipse time are special and important harbingers of even more developments to come down the road. Each 🌕🌑eclipse builds upon the question or theme that the first 🌕🌑eclipse in the series introduced. The next set of 🌕🌑eclipses, coming five and a half months later, will take up that topic and advance it forward. It may take multiple 🌕🌑eclipses over the course of 18 to 25 months to fully resolve the matter in a step-by-step way. You will come to a conclusion when that particular family of 🌕🌑eclipses finishes up.
In this ♍Virgo-♓Pisces 🌕🌑eclipse series, the first 🌕eclipse appeared as a 🌕full moon lunar eclipse on March 13-14 this year in ♍Virgo, 24 degrees. Can you recall the discussions, events, and activities you were having at that time? Have a look at your past emails or photographs taken six months ago for a clue. You would not necessarily feel every 🌕🌑eclipse in a series, but rather only the ones that fall within 8 degrees to your Sun, natal moon, or a natal planet in your chart.
Here is another interesting fact. 🌕🌑Eclipses repeat in the same precise sign and degree every 19 years. In 2006, you had a 🌕lunar eclipse in ♓Pisces, 15 degrees, September 7 and a 🌑solar eclipse in ♍Virgo, 29 degrees, on September 22. They were the same sign, degree, month, and date as this month’s 🌕🌑eclipses—but they appeared 19 years ago.
If you can think back and remember what occurred, you may be able to pick up a general theme that came up at that time. Keep in mind that the other little planets surrounding the 🌕🌑eclipses in 2006 have since moved on, so nothing ever repeats exactly in astrology.
Let’s now look at the new 🌕full moon lunar eclipse in ♓Pisces, 15 degrees, that will arrive Sunday September 7. It will light your third house of quick, short-distance travel, so you may decide to take a drive within about 200 miles from your base. You seem to be traveling for a personal purpose, to see a member of your family, such as your mother, to check in on her and catch up on news.
Alternatively, you may take that drive to view real estate that you either are in charge of caring for or are interested in viewing to possibly purchase. It’s also possible you will go to see a potential buyer for a piece of land you may want to sell. In short, the trip appears to be home or family related.
Speaking of family, you may hear news from or about your sister or brother, as the third house is strongly associated with siblings and cousins. You may be planning to go into business with your sister, or perhaps you’re getting ready to rent a large vacation home with your family and your brother’s family next summer.
Since home and property is coming up strongly in your chart, you may want to consider taking steps this month to protect your home from flooding, rain, or snow (to my friends below the equator). This is a 🌕full moon eclipse in ♓Pisces, and I see that Neptune, ♓Pisces’ ruler, has moved into your home sector.
Neptune rules the sea, all bodies of water, and anything to do with drinking water, mold, fog, and the like. Neptune might want to bring water into your house (and, of course, you don’t want that to happen), so if you live in a region that regularly needs to watch for hurricanes or heavy storms, and authorities say to evacuate—listen to them. Go to the house of a friend or family member for safety. If the weather reports are predicting heavy rain or flash flooding, get materials to protect your home from water damage. Do not drive, for you cannot judge the depth of water on a road that has had a flash flood. Neptune is telling you to be cautious, realistic, and practical. I don’t know if this will apply to you at all, but a 🌕full moon eclipse in ♓Pisces forces me to warn you of water danger and damage.
Still, in the aggregate, I feel this is a very positive 🌕eclipse and that you will benefit greatly from it, especially from a romantic partner, such as a your spouse or long-term established and committed partner. Or you may benefit from a business partner or collaborator, for this person would have your best interests in mind. This partner in your personal or business life will help you thanks to the position of Jupiter in your seventh house of committed alliances. Jupiter, the good fortune planet, will be in gorgeous, tight mathematical aspect to the full moon eclipse. This is rare to see at an eclipse—it’s a wow of an aspect. Jupiter will also be in a fine angle to the Sun.
To be clear, your “partner” would not refer to someone you are dating and to whom you are not yet committed because Jupiter is in your marriage and commitment seventh house. (The person you are dating would be reflected in a different part of your chart, your fifth house.)
The seventh house of your solar chart is where solemn, legal, and binding promises are made to a partner. When astrologers say “partners,” this also covers business partners with whom you’ve signed a contract or have a serious one-to-one confidential long-term relationship. (You sign a contract when you get married too, although we tend to forget that marriage is actually a contractual event because to most of us, marriage is such a romantic experience.)
The business partner in your life could be your agent, lawyer, accountant, headhunter, or other distinguished professional. This month, as a result of the September 7 🌕full moon lunar eclipse, this person will be outstandingly lucky for you. In fact, this person will be worth their weight in gold for you.
Our sense of time speeds up during months that hold 🌕🌑eclipses, and events in the outside world come to bear on your inner private world. Suddenly you are rethinking your plans, and timetables move up or change and happen faster than anticipated.
In addition to feeling the passage of time, 🌕🌑eclipses also tend to give a wide, panoramic view of life. This motivates us all to make more and better use of our time, to accomplish more in the time we have on Earth.
An 🌕eclipse can deliver its news on the day it occurs or within that week. Alternatively, the September 7 🌕eclipse could have already delivered its news at the previous month’s full moon August 9 (plus or minus 8 days), or it could deliver the news one month after the 🌕eclipse at the 🌕full moon next month October 6 (plus or minus 8 days). Astrologers deal with mathematical bell curves, which is why astrologers view time a little differently than other people.
The third house, where the September 7 🌕eclipse will fall in your chart, rules a variety of topics, so let’s consider another one of them.
The third house rules contractual negotiations, so you may be working with a client to settle an important deal. If so, the fact that this agreement would be falling at a full moon eclipse tells me it will be finalized very soon. The aspects to that eclipse—with Jupiter making an ideal, generous aspect—tells me that this deal is one that could be quite lucrative and may point you in a new productive direction.
The readers who will feel the September 7 🌕eclipse the most are those with birthdays that fall on January 5, plus or minus seven days, or have ♑Capricorn rising at 15 degrees, plus or minus 10 degrees. If your natal moon is in ♑Capricorn or you have a natal planet in ♑Capricorn, ♉Taurus, ♍Virgo, ♓Pisces, ♋Cancer, or ♏Scorpio at 15 degrees, plus or minus 10 degrees, you, too, will feel the 🌕eclipse in a positive way.
Eclipses come in pairs, usually in signs opposite on the horoscope wheel, and work with one another to create needed change. They bring your attention to a matter you may have overlooked, dismissed, underestimated, or ignored—but need to address.
If a situation has languished, the universe will watch to see if you finally create progress—the universe wants to see productivity. If you can’t bring yourself to make a decision about a situation that is simply going nowhere, the universe will either decide for you, or create a reason the situation must progress immediately. Often an 🌕eclipse will bring events from the outside world—over which you have no knowledge or control—which then zeros in on your own life. This is why 🌕🌑eclipses often seem to bring surprise events.
Sometimes an 🌑eclipse brings reward if you have worked a long time toward a goal, especially on 🌑new moon solar eclipses like the one later this month, September 21-22.
Before I discuss the 🌑solar eclipse coming in the third week of September, I would like to flag Friday September 12 as exceptionally beneficial for you. Circle this four-star day on your calendar. It is due to be a day when your romantic partner/spouse or business agent or collaborator will prove to you how much they appreciate who you are and how they have kept your interests in the forefront of their mind.
In business, your partner will show he or she admires your skills and talents and is likely to bring you good news. With a romantic partner, it would be great to plan to travel together over the ensuing weekend, choosing to go near or far. When you go, treat yourselves to a touch of luxury. Jupiter will align perfectly with the Sun on this day—it’s one of the best days of the month.
Don’t be too quick to judge an 🌑eclipse as either good or bad for you. All 🌕🌑eclipses have a second act, and in the coming weeks more information will come to you to help you see the big picture.
Let’s now look at the 🌑new moon solar eclipse on September 21-22 in ♍Virgo, 29 degrees, to light your ninth house. This area of your chart also rules travel, but trips that would go a much farther distance—such as New York to Los Angeles or London to Tokyo. The ninth house rules distant travel, foreign travel, and foreign relationships. This would be a wonderful time to travel. A trip to become acquainted with a culture that you’ve never visited or know a great deal about could turn out to be positively life changing.
Whether you are self-employed or you work for others, you might decide to expand your company’s operation to foreign countries. It seems almost certain that you will be traveling much more often in future months.
Matters of immigration, visa, residency, citizenship, and passport could become important at this September 21-22 eclipse, too. You may be making a new application now, as this is a 🌑new moon, which marks fresh beginnings.
The ninth house also rules higher education, so you may be starting graduate school or reporting to campus as an undergraduate, for emphasis on the intellectual ninth house will work to expand your mind and make you hungry to learn more about your specialty and the world around you.
The ninth house rules the taking in of advanced information through study and travel, and it also rules the disbursement of expertise in the media through publishing and broadcasting. You might start your book manuscript, website, or podcast series, or you might begin drawing up wireframes for a new game or app.
No matter what you tackle as a result of this eclipse, you will work very hard because your ruler Saturn will oppose the Sun and 🌑new moon. Other zodiac signs may dread the thought of working hard, but not you. Because Saturn rules ♑Capricorn, you always knew that the most important things we accomplish in life almost always have Saturn pushing us forward, daring us to stretch higher and to achieve more.
Aside from Saturn, you have an entire crowd of planets stepping up to help you and working together in a supremely harmonious way at this September 21-22 eclipse. I have never seen a 🌑new moon, let alone a powerful 🌑new moon solar eclipse, with such a magnificent configuration. Pluto, based in ♒Aquarius, 1 degree, in your house of your earned income will be in ideal position to communicate and support Uranus in ♊Gemini, 1 degree. Uranus is the planet of surprise, based in your sixth house of work-a-day projects, so you may get an unexpected assignment that will pay really well.
Wait—there is more! Both Pluto in ♒Aquarius in your money house and Uranus in ♊Gemini in your project sector will beam to the 🌑new moon solar eclipse at 29 degrees ♍Virgo—less than one degree away from ♎Libra—forming a breathtaking air-sign golden triangle. This suggests all ninth house matters—international travel and relationships, immigration, higher education, assignments in the media (or publicity from the media), and legal discussions and actions—will benefit you.
A kite pattern will form in your chart as well, allowing Neptune and Saturn to participate beautifully, too. Your ruler Saturn will work with Pluto and Uranus in a sextile (an opportunity aspect) and so will Neptune. Truly, I have never seen the titans of the solar system get so involved—and SO supportive—of a 🌑new moon solar eclipse. You could be showered with great opportunity and luck.
Additionally, action Mars is currently making his six-week appearance in your tenth house of professional honors, awards, and achievement, the house naturally ruled by ♑Capricorn. Mars first entered this house last month on August 6 and is set to stay until September 22. Mars will give you quite a bit of presence in your career and allow you to present ideas and get them approved.
There is one time Mars will pick a fight with Pluto, and that will be at the tail end of his visit to your legacy oriented career sector (tenth house), so stay away from asking for a raise or to present an idea to a VIP from September 22 to September 26.
Dear ♑Capricorn, you have such a big month ahead. October will be a quieter month, but even so, you will have a dazzling chance at making a substantial professional victory in the days and weeks after the 🌑new moon appears next month on October 21. Sounds good!
Travel is written all over your chart, so start packing, dear ♑Capricorn. This month has two 🌕🌑eclipses, each in signs compatible with yours. The first 🌕eclipse will be a 🌕full moon lunar eclipse in ♓Pisces on September 7 that will light your third house of short-distance travel, communication, and contractual matters. If you do travel early in the month, it will likely be to visit family, such as a sister or brother, parent, or other close relative, or to view property, whether to buy, rent, or repair.
If you are renovating, with a 🌕full moon lunar eclipse in watery ♓Pisces on September 7, it is likely that you are working on the plumbing, water supply, or a body of water, such as putting in a man-made lake on your property or a swimming pool in your yard. Also, watch weather reports for rain, fog, snow, hurricanes, and other storms, for you might be affected—if so, do all you can to protect your property and family. You will need to guard against water damage, so at the start of the month, make sure your insurance contains a rider for water damage, if you can get it. (Some insurance companies are no longer covering for any water damage.)
On the September 7 eclipse, Jupiter, the giver of gifts and luck, will send a golden beam to the 🌕full moon eclipse from your partnership seventh house sector, suggesting your spouse or business collaborator will be quite helpful to you. The seventh house rules anyone who works one-to-one with you in a close confidential way, such as your publicist, agent, contractor, accountant, or interior designer, as some examples. The seventh house would also rule your spouse, if you’re married. This year, with Jupiter in your partnership house, you will have substantial support from your partner in love or business if you need to sort out a dilemma.
The next eclipse, September 21-22, will be a 🌑solar new moon eclipse in ♍Virgo, an earth sign like yours, so it will be highly compatible. It will light your ninth house, also ruling travel (this time any journey you might take would be quite a distance, possibly to an international location). This house also rules study on an undergraduate or, in your pursuit of an advanced degree, a graduate level, as this sector of your chart also rules education.
There are other areas of interest in the ninth house. Not only does it rule the taking in of knowledge but also the sharing of your specialty with others through publishing and broadcasting. If you work in one of these industries, you will be outstandingly favored. There are other possible areas of gain, depending on your circumstances, and those include legal matters and philosophical discussions. All these matters glow for you, so this September 21-22 🌑new moon solar eclipse should open a new path in one of the areas listed.
The opposition of Saturn to the Sun and 🌑new moon eclipse suggests you will need to be prepared to work hard to capture the mission you accept now. Still, it would be worth the effort you put out—your chances of succeeding have never been better. A 🌑solar eclipse almost always opens new doors and opportunities, and you are likely to hear news shortly after this 🌑solar eclipse appears. This one offers you a magnificent golden triangle of harmony at the time of the eclipse. Standing supreme will be Mercury, the travel planet, that is based in your career sector. If you do travel, it will likely be for business, but you can add extra days to your trip if the location you go to is one you can enjoy.
At the time of the September 21-22 🌑solar eclipse, you will get support from Pluto, a mega-financial planet, made stronger from Pluto’s position in your second house of earned income, pointing to Mercury in your tenth house of fame and honors. If you do a good job, the money will flow you to—this message is as clear as a billboard on a highway.
Simultaneously, you will get equally powerful, unexpected support from Uranus, also called the planet of genius and idiosyncratic non-traditional creativity, in your sixth house of work-a-day projects. Uranus will link to your everyday work assignments and to Pluto, seeing that you get the money you deserve.
Something you are about to focus on at work will have the potential to bring you impressive career progress and more money. Your work can raise your career profile significantly. Mars has been heating up your professional area since August 6 and will remain just long enough to set you up for a thrilling promotion or award.
Mars will leave the day after the eclipse, September 22. The stage is set for you, dear ♑Capricorn, so go for the gold. If you do not capture the advancement this month, the 🌑new moon next month on October 21 could hand you your prize promotion—or a top offer from a competitor.
