This eclipse season zeroes in on the Virgo-Pisces axis, that push and pull between holding on and letting go, control and surrender, structure and flow.
The south node in Virgo asks us to release perfectionism, self-criticism, and the exhausting need to prove our worth by doing more. It’s the call to stop fixing what isn’t broken and start shedding mental clutter and outdated habits.
Opposite Virgo, the north node in Pisces invites you to step into a softer, more intuitive way of being. It’s about trusting what can’t be seen yet, leaning into faith, and opening up to the mysterious currents that guide your soul.
This axis isn’t about rushing toward the future with a plan; it’s about clearing space so that something new can quietly emerge.
Saturn retrograde in Pisces deepens this message. Here he’s asking for patience, discipline, and honest reflection, not quick fixes but real, lasting change. Alongside Saturn, Neptune is retrograding at zero degrees Aries, poised to slip back into Pisces.
This adds a layer of spiritual sensitivity and blurred boundaries, inviting you to navigate the space between clarity and mystery with care.
Meanwhile, Jupiter in Cancer offers nurturing emotional support, reminding you that growth is also about feeling safe and cared for.
The slow-burning energy of Uranus and Pluto, forming a kite pattern, adds momentum. Uranus sparks unexpected breakthroughs, while Pluto pushes for deep transformation. Together, they’re quietly reshaping your foundation, even if the full picture isn’t clear yet.
How to work with these energies, a general overview
Working with this eclipse season is less about hustle and more about savvy self-care. Think of it as giving your inner world a much-needed spring clean, but without the overwhelm or guilt trips. Start by noticing what’s cluttering your mental space. Is it that habit of overthinking every little thing?
The urge to fix yourself before you feel worthy? Gently question those patterns instead of fighting them. Remember, this season asks you to trade perfectionism for presence. You don’t need to have it all figured out; you just need to be willing to feel what’s coming up and lean into it with curiosity.
At the same time, it’s time to get smart about boundaries and rest. Saying no isn’t just a power move, oh no. It’s essential. Your energy is precious, and this cosmic lineup is nudging you to protect it like a VIP.
Create rituals that ground you, whether that’s a five-minute meditation, a walk barefoot on grass, or a phone-free hour to just breathe. And when resistance or old fears bubble up, don’t slam the door. Invite them in for a chat. They’re part of the process, not the problem. This eclipse season is your backstage pass to rewriting the rules.
