2025s Eclipse season has begun : it’s the first of a series of Eclipses in the healing-oriented, service-giving signs of Virgo and Pisces. On March the 14th, a powerful total Lunar Eclipse in Virgo lights up the skies, bringing enormous focus to where it is in our world that the balance of rest and work, flow and control, the practical and the ethereal needs to be maintained. It is a powerful moment of release, change, and transformation, marking the beginning of a new cycle in the Virgo/Pisces axis. With two eclipses, two inner planet retrogrades, the astrological New Year, an outer planet shift, and potent aspects occurring throughout the month, buckle up—this cosmic ride will be intense. Are you ready then? Let's dive deep into the energy of this eclipse and what it means for all of us!
This eclipse at 23° Virgo is the first in the Pisces/Virgo eclipse series that will unfold over the next year. Virgo and Pisces are both signs of service and sacrifice, yet they approach these themes differently. Virgo is practical, detail-oriented, and seeks to improve, while Pisces is fluid, imaginative, and spiritually inclined. The last time this pattern happened was over 2006 and 2007: looking back, what themes may be reappearing for us now?
During this eclipse, the South Node (the point of release) is conjunct with the Moon, emphasising themes of letting go, endings, and clearing out anything that no longer serves you. Virgo’s shadow side can manifest as perfectionism, over-analysis, and being overly critical. This may mean letting go of the Virgoan desire to control all of life’s little details and loosen up your grip on things beyond your control, leaving more room for serendipity. Alternately, this may mean reaching a crisis point in some area of your life that’s gotten messy, requiring you to start running a tighter ship and stepping up your game, Virgo-style.
The Moon in Virgo in a natal Horoscope
Step into hermit mode, since the Virgoan energy will encourage you to mind your business. Over the last six months, you may have worked tirelessly to make progress on personal goals while remaining available for others. There might have been times when you were stretched to your limits. Going the extra mile may have tested your strength, dexterity, and adaptability. You could have realised that you cannot do it all or be there for others who weren’t there for you. As the lunation approaches, you may want to reflect on what amplifies your health and happiness. Forget the rest, and don’t feel bad about it.
Ruling this Eclipse is Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods. What is the message being whispered to us now? Can we take the time to listen? He’s just about to turn on his heel and move retrograde, heightening his energy and reminding us of the need to go slow, to delay impulse, to wisely look before we leap.
In Aries, the message is one of boldness, bravery, of perhaps stepping into the great unknown and being willing to let go of what - truly - does not serve us, in the spirit of Virgo and Pisces. Moving towards what feels intuitively right, what feels aligned, resonant, what feels like our soul - this is the essence of this supercharged Full Moon. And, any beginning often kicks off with a powerful ending, as we well know.
Opposing the Moon and conjunct the Sun is Saturn, a mere degree away from perfecting the aspects to each luminary. Saturn lends a sense of permanence, a grounded energy, a reality check. You may realise that you are your own worst enemy. Some of these issues, disturbances, and conundrums might result from your actions. If you want your life to change for the better, you must stop self-inflicting stressful situations you don’t have to be part of. Assume responsibility for the messes you choose to partake in or make yourself. Taking ownership is the first step in correcting your behaviour and habits. Overcoming insecurities, fears, and outer obstacles with determination supports us, particularly seeing as Saturn is angled to Mars in a productive, yet still emotionally-driven trine.
Speaking of trines, the Moon aligns to Uranus in this pattern, bringing forth the opportunity for surprise, for freedom from the patterns that bind - perhaps in unexpected ways. Anything could happen! Eclipses already coincided with fateful yet unpredictable events, so this underlying Uranian energy will only exacerbate the potential for chaos and change. Since you could experience a slew of unique opportunities and deal with unlikely characters, you should prepare for anything to go down. Once again, allowing flexibility and moving away from the control-oriented shadow aspect of Virgo is the key. Think on your feet as you go and know you can make the most of whatever happens.
This eclipse will likely bring significant shifts, particularly in the area of your chart ruled by Virgo. The events unfolding around this time may feel fated, as if the universe is guiding you toward an inevitable turning point. But have no doubt this area of your life will no longer be the same.
Do you feel burnt out, Aries? The eclipse will impact your sixth house of health and habits, which could go one of two ways. You could either crash and burn, or you might catch an unexpected second wind. Either way, the eclipse will encourage you to reflect on your journey in health and wellness from the last months. As you consider the events, habits, routines, and more, you may realise that something has to change. Sure, you can keep going at this pace, but how long do you think you can keep it up? Take this eclipse as your sign to radically change your lifestyle to avoid running yourself into the ground.

Are you having fun, Taurus? You might have tried to let your hair down over the last six months. Maybe you forced yourself to take up a new hobby, like joining a pickleball league or figuring out how to knit. Perhaps you made yourself go out on a first date or two instead of cancelling at the last minute. Regardless of what you have done, hopefully, you have had some fun getting out of your comfort zone. The eclipse will close a cycle in your fifth house of creation, encouraging you to consider what kind of excitement and joy you can continue creating as you move forward from this lunar chapter. The fun doesn’t have to stop here.

Home is whatever you choose to make of it, Gemini. Your personal life might have changed in unexpected yet destined ways throughout the last six months.

What do you know to be true, Cancer? Check your facts, because the eclipse will hit your third house of communication.

As the eclipse approaches, everything you thought you knew could be subject to change. When you least expect it, the truth will reveal itself. Expect this eclipse energy to take out the trash. Whatever was hidden will undoubtedly come to light.

Let go of your scarcity mindset, Leo. You might have nervously fretted over your finances and personal belongings throughout the past six months.

You might have also felt the pinch in your pockets if you couldn’t afford your usual luxuries, like an occasional coffee from your favourite cafe. As the eclipse unwinds your second house of security, you may want to rethink how you handle your finances. Although this has been stressful, you have made ends meet. Trust that the Universe will continue to supply what you need.

As you worked tirelessly, you could have seen improvements in other areas of your life that you identify with. Hopefully, you will feel pleased with your progress when the eclipse activates your first house of selfhood.

Make your mental health your top priority, Libra. Like your cosmic counterpart, Aries, you may have realised that you cannot keep going at this rate. The past six months might have shown you time and time again what may happen if you don’t take care of your heart and mind. You could have had a breakdown or two if nervous exhaustion got the best of you. Your temper might have been short if you were overworked, overtired, and overstimulated. As the eclipse gears up in your twelfth house of the subconscious, you might realise that something has to change. It might be time to see a therapist or give yourself a much-needed break from reality to regroup.

Good friends will support you, not criticise you, Scorpio. You might have realised that some of your confidants are more like frenemies over the last six months. It might have come out when you were pursuing your dreams and accomplishing major milestones. Some of your friends might have been incredibly happy for you, while others might have fallen off the face of the world. A few connections could have even gone so far as to undermine your achievements and progress. Since the eclipse will activate your eleventh house of community, you may want to reconsider the company you keep. Be selective about who you go to for love, encouragement, and connection.

A professional project could have sharpened a unique set of skills, or a personal ambition may have caught your eye.

Be present, Capricorn. The last six months may have tested your ability to be in the here and now instead of worrying about the future. You could have struggled to remain grounded if your daydreams and fantasies were more alluring than your reality. Enjoying the journey may feel impossible if you are more focused on reaching your destination. Although remaining present is not easy, the eclipse will encourage you to appreciate every step of the way as it advances your ninth house of journeying. Take a moment to appreciate how far you have come. Appreciating your hard work will help you continue on your pathway without losing sight of what you are doing every single day to reach your goals.

Regain control of your financial future, Aquarius. The recent cosmic energy from the past six months may have sent you into a fiscal tailspin. Professional commitments and contracts may have fallen out, which could have caused you to feel financially insecure. Aside from this, the recent changes in the political climate may have impacted any investments you have made. While this has been a trepidatious period, the eclipse will prove your resilience when Luna shines in your eighth house of asset and debt. Don’t lose hope; the eclipse’s powers will help you get back on track with your money matters and change your financial future for the better in the long run.

How did someone make you feel, Pisces? Reflect on how a close confidant has affected your life, feelings, and more over the last six months. It might be a romantic partner, close friend, or business partner. Regardless of who this individual is to you, they have significantly impacted your well-being. Hopefully, they have been a light in your life. If not, the eclipse will likely remove this individual from your life, as Luna closes a cycle in your seventh house of commitment. Although the relationship may unexpectedly end during this eclipse season, take comfort in knowing that this is fated. You are encouraged to make space for someone better to come into your life.
