The September 16th Eclipse in Astrology
We have a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse on Friday 16th September at 6.54pm, London time – adjust for your country. This is a Full Moon which sees the Sun at 24 Virgo opposite the Moon at 24 Pisces. Every eclipse conceals something from you. What should be bright and obvious is covered up. Sometimes this happens because people are keeping secrets (Princess Diana and Prince Charles were keeping secrets when they married near an eclipse). At other times there is nothing suspicious – but you will be missing all the information you need.
What You Can Do
You will only be personally affected if you have Virgo or Pisces factors in your birth chart at 23, 24 or 25 degrees. If you do, please look at my notes on your chart, below. Even if your chart is not directly hit, you need to be aware of global stories which will not tell you all that you need to know – and deserve to see. Because one half of the eclipse pattern is in Pisces, some of these stories will concern drugs and alcohol – and because the other half is in Virgo, we are talking about medical or health issues. I have already made a prediction (which you can find by hitting Search) quite some time ago, that on or close to Friday 16th September we would see a major Rio Olympics doping scandal. This has already begun, thanks to hackers, but there will be more.
Beyond doping, watch the ‘news’ on this Virgo-Pisces eclipse which will not be full news reporting at all. It will concern the same themes – illness, surgery, hospitals, doctors, nurses, alcohol, illegal drugs, prescribed drugs – and you may see it panning out in any number of different ways.

If You Have Any Birth Chart Factors at 23, 24, 25
The eclipse will create hazy, unclear, dim astrological ‘weather’ around you, in the area/s of life ruled by the sign in question. So if you have the Sun at 24 Aries, the patchy, unhelpful atmosphere will be about Aries things in your life – your appearance, title, reputation, profile and so on. You may want to organise your business card another time. If you have Venus at 23 Gemini then a his-and-hers website may benefit from a thoughtful delay. Can this wait?
As always, you can decode the sign/house in question instantly by looking up Search or returning to your Premium Member profile page when you read your weekly horoscope, which always has an explainer next to your forecast.
One way to think about any eclipse, including this one, is like a stained glass window, shading and overshadowing the light as it tries to filter through. An eclipse is striking and beautiful, like this window by Edward Burne-Jones, below. You would not try to read a book through stained glass, though, or try to steer a boat! It’s about visibility.
Other Aspects Near the Eclipse
I posted a story about the new Hinkley Point nuclear reactor in England because it has been timed on two eclipses and I am very concerned about what lies ahead in 2019. This prediction is based partly on the aspects near the eclipse itself.
You can read your own chart, or the charts of other people, in the same way. We’re looking for patterns around 24 degrees of any zodiac sign, on Friday 16th, Saturday 17th September. Panacea is at 23 Sagittarius. Uranus is at 23 Aries (both on Friday). On Saturday, Mars is at 23 Sagittarius. Even as late as Sunday, Venus is at 23 Libra.
So, there is more to this eclipse than meets the eye – your eye – and all of our eyes. If your chart is triggered, ask yourself what is most obvious about the sign in question, in your horoscope, and the horoscope factor in that sign. So, for example, if you have the Ascendant at 24 Cancer, you know the issue will be your reputation within the family – easily decoded if you use your Premium Membership. You’ll know right away where to allow yourself and others more time and space. Let the Moon pass out of Pisces.

If You Have Virgo Factors at 23, 24, 25
You may prefer to wait until the Moon has passed right out of Pisces before you make final, detailed judgement calls or take dramatic action without checking – this occurs at 4.22am on Saturday 17th September in London (adjust for your country). The specific issues to be aware of will involve your physical condition and/or your workload, both of which are ruled by Virgo in the Sixth House of your birth chart. Astrology and history tell us to assume nothing on an eclipse – although of course the final decision is yours, and not your horoscope’s!
If You Have Pisces Factors at 23, 24, 25
You may also want to wait until the Moon is right out of Pisces at 4.22am on Saturday 17th September (London time) before you pass major judgements – specifically about your secrets, your role behind the scenes, classified information or confidential concerns. This is not going to help your clarity. Pisces in your chart also rules clairvoyance, mediumship, astral travel and the etheric body, so you may prefer to experiment another time, when you can see in the clear light of day. As always, the decision is up to you – and not up to your chart.
How to Understand Eclipses – Blind Spots and Obscured Vision
I am showing you this Twitter image, passed onto me by my friend Shelley Silas, because it is a stunning example of how an eclipse resembles the human eye. You will often hear me talking about an eclipse as a blind spot. This photograph helps you remember that – the centre of the photograph looks like the pupil of an eye. Around the pupil we see murky, streaky, strange patterns. In other words – an eclipse is an unusual, important event when you just won’t see as you usually do! That is why it’s astrological tradition to wait until the Moon has left the sign in question (in this case Pisces) before making detailed assessments of situations. Again, this affects you more if your birth chart is hit – but if so, I suspect you will immediately know what I am talking about, even as you read this. You know the area of life where things seem hazy, murky, unclear, obscured, hard to see – and so on.
Eclipses, Your Horoscope and Astrology
Eclipses are cover-up jobs. You will not be shown what you need to see. People hide the truth on eclipses. It may directly affect you, so someone around you is obscuring the facts, or you may be affected through six degrees of separation. It is wise to suspend judgement or avoid taking drastic action on the day of an eclipse, but allow 24 hours before and afterwards too, so the world can catch up with itself. Events later always tell us the same thing! What was not known at the time, either because it was concealed, or yet to unfold, will ultimately change the ‘history’ surrounding that day. Obviously you don’t want this to happen if you’re applying for a job or buying a home – so watch those eclipses.
Prince Charles, Princess Diana, Eclipses and Mysteries
Prince Charles married Lady Diana Spencer on Wednesday 29th July 1981. The wedding was sandwiched between two eclipses. The first eclipse took place on Friday 17th July. The second one occurred on Friday 31st July. Somewhere between the wedding cake icing and the honeymoon, everything was hidden from the cheering crowds. It would be years until Andrew Morton’s book about the Princess, written with her secret co-operation, would reveal the truth about that time – not to mention her Panorama interview.
I have referenced the passing of the Princess elsewhere in my new ebook, 2020 Astrology (yours to collect, free, from 1st August). It happened just before a solar eclipse, two days later. More mystery! Princess Diana was born with the Sun in Cancer, the sign which is also ruled by the Moon. People born under that sign are affected more powerfully by an Eclipse according to astrology. Are you a crab? Is that true for you?
Eclipses and the John F. Kennedy Assassination
In 1963 America went eclipse crazy. Even Peanuts mentioned it. Lee Harvey Oswald was fired from his job at Wm. B. Reily Coffee Company in New Orleans the day before on Friday 19th July 1963. The total solar eclipse the following day, Saturday 20th July, was witnessed across the United States, but nobody witnessed what was really going on with Lee Harvey Oswald. He was a nobody. Or was he? That eclipse coincided with his first fated step towards the President.
His colleague at the coffee company, Judyth Vary Baker, claims he was an undercover agent and that his job at Reily’s, like her own, was a fake. You can see Lee’s time cards and clock-in/out times in Judyth’s book, Me & Lee. Lee Harvey Oswald worked erratic hours, was frequently absent and was always late for work – but he was never penalised and was always paid in full. How very peculiar. Lee’s next job would be at the Texas School Book Depository.
Polls show that most Americans do not accept the official verdict on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, even today. Eclipses typically leave a black spot, for years, if the zodiac signs involved, and the patterns (aspects) they make in the horoscope, are extreme.
As with the New Moon and Full Moon, there is no blanket reading. You have to put eclipses in context. If the Sun and Moon hit difficult patterns in your horoscope, or the horoscopes of particular countries, the cover-up can change history. When Lee Harvey Oswald was fired from the last job he had, before going to Texas, the total eclipse the following day saw the Sun and Moon at 27 Cancer. President John F. Kennedy was born on 29th May 1917 at 3.00pm in Brookline, Massachusetts with Saturn at 27 Cancer. If JFK had seen an astrologer about his Texas tour schedule and she had seen that eclipse on his Saturn she would have immediately dug into her filing cabinet and found the chart for the United States. As you can see elsewhere in the new ebook, 2020 Astrology, America was ‘born’ or founded, with Juno at 28 Libra. That’s way too close! It would not have been unusual for a world leader to see an astrologer. Reagan did. Centuries before, so did Elizabeth Tudor. As far as we know, Kennedy did not.
Watergate and the 1973 Gemini Eclipse
Here’s another interesting eclipse. Another cover-up – but what was concealed? On December 10th 1973 we saw a partial lunar eclipse in Gemini (which rules telephones and tape recordings, and also the media) and Sagittarius. Shadowy! Three days earlier, The White House told the world it could not explain an 18 1/2 minute gap in one of the Watergate tapes. The Washington Post reported one official theory was that ‘some sinister force’ had erased it.
What Am I Not Seeing?
Eclipses do have that fated quality about them. I was interviewed about their astrological meaning by Channel Four at Glastonbury, on August 11th 1999, when the sky went dark, two owls next to me fell asleep and the whole town fell silent. The question you should always ask when an eclipse comes around is this: What am I not seeing? As a general rule, when you see an eclipse coming, count the day before and after, and suspend big judgements or dramatic action plans. Eclipses conceal. They never fully reveal. They often blot out what needs to be seen. You are not shown the full picture. It can be harmless, but if you, or the people around you (or even the nation) gets hit by an eclipse, you will be affected. If you can choose any time at all to go ahead with big plans, you may prefer to avoid an eclipse, if it’s no big deal to move dates.
There is no need to be paranoid about eclipses, but you need to be aware that all is not what it seems. Sometimes you will never, ever know the full story. An Eclipse on a New Moon, when the Sun and Moon are in the same sign and at the same degree or number, is the birth of something new, but it will involve concealed information, unknown facts or missing details. Be careful. An Eclipse on a Full Moon, when the Sun and Moon are in opposite signs, at the same degree or number, also blots out what needs to be seen. It is more challenging, because the Full Moon describes inner or outer conflicts, too.
Stonehenge the Eclipse Computer
Robin Heath is every astrologer’s favourite Stonehenge expert. If you visit Britain’s national temple take his little book Stonehenge (Wooden Books) in your pocket. It will completely alter your experience of these famous rolling stones.
Professor Sir Fred Hoyle was the first astronomer to realise that the Aubrey Circle at Stonehenge was used to track Full Moons and New Moons with the aim of predicting a lunar or solar eclipse. Either that, or the painstaking calculations we can find today at Stonehenge are either just a truly staggering coincidence. And if Stonehenge is the result of mere chance, then so is Avebury. Lovely Avebury is just 17 miles away. As Heath suggests in his book, the circles there also strongly suggest monthly lunar cycles. Eclipses mattered then, just as they do now. Track them in your own chart to see why. Even though every eclipse conceals, rather than reveals, you have to read them by their zodiac sign and degree. If you see anything that directly triggers your horoscope then look again. If it also happens to be chiming with a difficult aspect in your chart, then you may prefer to wait until you can know more (or see more) before you make big choices. The difference between fate and astrology is that fate happens to you, and destiny is what you make your own, using the ancient practise of astrology to help you navigate and create.
Partial Extract from 2020 Astrology – Your Five Year Horoscope Guide by Jessica Adams.
Hi Jessica
There is a new moon solar eclipse in Virgo on my birthday – 1 September. I can’t help but feel there is something of real significance in this for me, but I am not sure what to expect! Auspicious comes to mind…
Yes, you have an unaspected Sun at 9 Virgo in your Sixth House of work, and the body. The New Moon would normally mean a new project, role, plan or a fresh path with your food, fitness, drugs, doctor, drink and so on. Instead what we have is a different direction for you, but one that is not fully clear – as it should be. You may want to steer clear of that whole eclipse period for big judgements or moves as there is more to be revealed and some aspects of the situation may even never be known. This is standard astrological advice for an eclipse. Don’t be too concerned about this – just use your common sense. You may want to make up your mind later and it could be something as basic as signing up for expensive gym membership without realising that the gym in question is set to close within six months!
Oh my giddy Aunt!!!! I love your work and efforts. Thank you very much.
I am at crossroads in my life. With my work, I am currently a primary school teacher and feeling it drains me physically & mentally. I need to find new work. I am also very involved in my community with unpaid work. Perhaps too much.
With my health I have also been very unwell for the past 7 weeks . This is not me. I am normally a a very healthy, active, positive and social person.
At least my family life is fine as they are my support and love.
When discussing eclipses, am I being too nieve to think and possibly believe that after September 18/19 , then my opportunities to move forward will improve as long as i delve deep into reasons why subconsciously I am in this situation in life?
Too funny, ‘Oh my giddy Aunt’ is a favourite expression on my mother’s side of the family, so you instantly caught my attention! Weirdly, her side of the family is also full of teachers. Okay, your body is acting out and acting up, because you won’t make a move. You have Pluto at 20 Virgo and Uranus at 26 Virgo so the time is right for serious change and wonderfully for you, the biggest and best opportunity in years is coming, when Jupiter the problem-solver and miracle worker moves to 20 Virgo until July 26th followed by Jupiter moving to 26 Virgo, on your Uranus, in the final ten days of August. Use your journal to set goals, make wishes, sketch visualisations and so on, and focus on the days when you see lots of Virgo activity. Reach out for what you want and deserve – now is the time.
Hey Jessica, many thanks for this interesting information.
I’m an Aquarius sun and my natal Mercury retrograde is at 25 degrees in Aquarius.
Please could you advise on how the August 18 lunar eclipse at 25°51′ Aquarius, will affect me.
A Yod (called ‘The Finger Of God’) during this eclipse points to Jupiter, and has the Moon sextile Uranus.
Kind regards.
Thank you. There is no eclipse on 18th August, but we do have a Full Moon at 25 Aquarius. Give yourself time and space with the group (the one involving your friend) and double that message if you’re on Twitter or other social media. Contemplate before you write anything in stone with your club, team, society, association and so on. You will have a bridge to cross with these people, at that time. I don’t work with Yods.
Hi Jessica, I’m planning two important business meetings, one in the last week of August and onother one in the first week of September. I’m also planning a short holiday around the 1st of September. Will the Solar eclipse on the 1st have any effect. Or should I be more aware of Mercury being retrograde by then. I have Mars in 9 degrees Aries and Jupiter in 10 degrees Sagittarius. Thank you.
You also have Uranus at 9 Sagittarius so the Eclipse will square your Uranus Ninth House position which of course is about travel, along with Jupiter one degree away. Don’t assume anything the day of the eclipse, and a day either side. You are not being shown the full story. Whatever you are told, or what appears to be the case, may not be so, as events will later prove. One example would be, arriving at your holiday destination and being offered an apartment for your free use, only to discover later that there was a catch. There is no need to be paranoid about this eclipse, just watchful and aware. Yes, Mercury Retrograde will affect your business meetings. You know what to expect, though, so you will be well prepared. Pick up my new ebook 2020 Astrology on 1st August (free) as there is a long chapter on Mercury Retrograde.
Another lovely article on eclipse, Diana is still my favourite person, she was very warm and kind and very giving, i wish she were here now to see her boys, anyway my own life is all over the place, i am capricorn sun , sag moon and virgo rising , i am struggling to finish my accountancy qualification and i am not sure if i can find a job in this field as there is so much competition in London now, do you think i should stick it out
Thanks for your help.
jamuna
Thank you. You need to log in, so I can view your natal chart.
Great article on eclipses Jessica. With the eclipse on September 1 at 9 degrees Virgo how to do foresee that impacting my chart? I’m really interested to note any career changes that may happen for me or if this could impact my home and family life. Thanks for your articles which are so fascinating!
That is quite close to your Leo/Gemini/Sagittarius personal birth chart factors. You may want to skip the day of the eclipse (and the days before and after) for making big judgement calls or taking major action, especially if it’s about work/the internet/travel because you just won’t be shown the full picture. Be aware of anybody/anything that suddenly pops up at this time too, especially if it has a Virgo/Leo/Gemini/Sagittarius theme. It’s usually pretty obvious. Let the eclipse pass.
Hi Jessica just wondering what this eclipse means for my career. I’m really struggling with this just now. Feel like I’ve had six years of constant upheaval and personal loss. And the constant weight of this is pushing me to tipping point at work. Is this going to be another negative? Thanks
We’ve had Pluto going from 2 through 17 degrees of Capricorn in your Tenth House of career over the last six years. You have the MC (Midheaven) which is all about your highest achievement in life, exactly on your Sun at 18 Capricorn too. All this and you have your IC (Immum Coeli) at 18 Cancer in your Fourth House of home and family. Basically you have been going through transiting Pluto in the Tenth House and he is going to sit on your Sun and MC and oppose your IC when he moves to 18 Capricorn (Transiting Pluto conjunct Sun, Transiting Pluto conjunct MC, Transiting Pluto opposing IC). I am giving you all the jargon so you can look across the internet and also my own ebook 2020 Astrology which is yours, free to keep from 1st August. Bottom line, you just hit a cycle affecting your career which can only occur every 248 years. It will totally transform your ideas about success, position, ambition and mission. It will empower you. It is common to find people who do not really know what it feels like to become genuinely empowered, yet this is Pluto’s gift to you. The price he asks is massive self-discipline and self-control! Nothing else will work. You are going to have to come up with a plan and stick to it, so that you feel in control, and are the boss of your own C.V. Between now and Christmas 2018 it is important that you give yourself as much time and space as possible for your health, fitness and wellbeing as you will need to lean very hard on your strength (which is formidable) and become the captain of your own ship. It would not be surprising to hear that you are surrounded by people or organisations which are dominating, controlling, insensitive to other people’s rights, roles and responsibilities – and the rest. If so they will ultimately be dwarfed and even demoted or thrown out of the system, no matter if this is your work sphere or you are actually dealing with a business or company which simply will not last. Do not sit around waiting for that. The gift of Pluto is to make you formidable so that you can truly say you have earned your power when it comes. It will come slowly but it will be earned by self-control and willpower. Hit search and read more about Pluto because this is exactly what you are going through. So – this reading of your chart was not about the eclipse at all, but about something far more rare and crucial, which is that 248-year cycle. I have no idea about your profession but all I can say is, when the whole world changes 2019-2020 you will be the right woman in the right place at the right time to assist this massive transition. I have spirit with me as I say that, which is quite unusual. The spirit world affirms that. And you have support from spirit. Whatever you are doing by then is crucial to your part of the world, did you know? And maybe a part of the planet as a whole. Go to it.
Hi Jessica, Another great read but this one really fascinated me. Once I become more knowledgeable with astrology I would love to view past eclipses and my chart to see what took place at that time of my life. “The difference between fate and astrology is that fate happens to you, and destiny is what you make your own, using the ancient practise of astrology to help you navigate and create.” LOVE!…how does my chart play into the upcoming eclipse? Thank you
Thank you. Track the second eclipse in September on Friday 16th when we see a Full Moon too. The Sun is at 24 Pisces and Moon at 24 Virgo. This affects you far more than the first one. Let the 15th, 16th, 17th pass without too many big judgement calls or major plans if possible as it does trigger your chart factors close to 24 degrees, as you can see.
Hi Jessica! The coming September eclipse conjuncts my natal venus (within 2 degrees) and squares my natal neptune exactly. How might these transits affect me?
You were born with Neptune at 9 Sagittarius which is more important than your Venus position which is too wide – so what we’re looking at here is a T-Square, going from the Sun in your Sixth House, to the Moon in your Twelfth House, across Neptune in your Ninth House. There is low visibility and distortion there anyway with travel, foreign places and people, the worldwide web, beliefs of all kinds (including religion and astrology) and that other great Ninth House concern, publishing. To add an eclipse increases the haze, so you may want to make up your mind or take sweeping action another time. Allow 24 hours either side of that eclipse. A typical example would be booking a trip to a place which is shortly about to become a delay zone – the transport or airline authorities may know it but you don’t. I’d also be very wary of issues like religion, cults, and so on – all of which are famously associated with Neptune in Sagittarius.
You are such a clever wordsmith!
Really, really enjoy your astrology blogs.
Eclipses send shivers down my spine as I have a child with a never before seen type of life threatening epilepsy and a most unusual astrology chart….. Eclipses do not bode well for her health. We are waiting for news of possible surgical candidacy….. All coming up soon.
With my chart is the eclipse triggering something that I should be forewarned about?
Kit
Thank you, I’m glad you like reading the website. I have never heard of eclipses and epilepsy and I’m afraid I can’t see a chart here at all to read. I hope it goes well for her with her medical treatment.
Hello again
Bugger about not being able to see a chart.
I’m a member so not sure what happened
Maybe i will check in with you at the Forum at the end of this month and see what the eclipses are doing.
Hi Jessica,
My North Node is at 8 degrees in Sagittarius and natal Pluto is at 9 degrees in Libra.
Could you please let me know if the September 1 eclipse will impact me and in which areas of my life?
Thank you.
Without seeing your full chart I can’t figure out what else is at 9 degrees, but basically, it will create a T-Square with your True North Node and True South Node and also aspect Pluto in your Seventh House. That’s enough for me to say, allow for a partly or wholly concealed situation August 31, September 1, 2 and wait before you assume too much. There is something you are not seeing, then.
Hi Jessica,
Thanks for another great article! My sun is at 9 degrees Virgo and it is unaspected (I think). Should I be excited? Is this solar eclipse on birthday really as big a deal as everyone’s making it out to be? How can I expect it to affect me this year?
Thank you. You have an Aesculapia-Sun conjunction at 9 Virgo in your Sixth House, which rules your body, your paid work, lifestyle, daily routine and unpaid work. This is unusual. It means you become well known for bringing back work projects, jobs or professional situations from the brink (resurrecting them) and purely in terms of your physical condition, health and wellbeing – you can also make constant comebacks. Eclipses are not exciting at all. They just conceal, rather than reveal. So August 31, September 1, September 2 bear that in mind with all those areas of life I just mentioned and make allowances for the fact that you will not be seeing what is actually there. You may want to let time pass and suspend big judgement calls or sweeping action plans at that time.
I’m having a funny one lately…I’m finishing up my job very soon and haven’t made much progress finding another, I’ve just been given notice on my apartment and I’ve recently had my heart stood on by the same guy who stood on it before. I’m never phased by things like this even tho I probably should be but this morning I’m hoping for a little bit of direction…
I was born 52.6680° N, 8.6305° W at about 1:30am on 21/12/1979…
I normally get enough of a sense of things from your horoscopes but I’d appreciate any insight x
Blimey, that’s a first – giving me your longitude and latitude in your birthdate! Basically you are a Sagittarian who has stunning job opportunities in front of her, right now – do all you can to nail the new position, volunteer role, course, allowance (open your mind to all possibilities) now through August 10th and try to get it in writing before that time. Beyond then a fantastic solution will be on offer yet it will go back and forth until October when you finally find out where you stand. The rest is really for a personal chart. These are big topics.
Ummm how do I show you my chart?
Your personal horoscope pops up automatically when you log in, so I can see you have the Moon at 10 Virgo in your Sixth House which rules your housework, paid work and unpaid work. It also rules your physical condition and body. The eclipse on 1st September 2016 is at 9 Virgo, so just one degree away. In reference to the above areas of your life, allow for blind spots, obscured facts, missing details. Allow 24 hours either side of eclipse day and think about deferring big decisions, actions or judgements about the above.
Hi there I’m sorry to bother but could you have another quick look, my birthdate was incorrect in my chart, when you said my moon was in Virgo I checked as I know it’s in Caprcorn. I’m feeling very strange at them moment and can’t put a finger on it…it’s not my head or my body…maybe it’s anxiety I dunno
Sorry I can’t find your question at all on this thread – yes, your Moon is in Capricorn – I just checked. Thank you.
Hi Jessica, through your website I have learned about eclipses. Aries/ Libra ones really bombardrd me. The last eclipse in Libra 3 degree conjuncted natal pluto 2 degree and sun at 4 degree. Even though it is fading What does it actually mean? I started to stand up against unfairness in relationship. Is that what it meant to be. The September 16th one my moon going to conjunct Fortuna at 24 degree. Is it significant? Thank you for assistance.
?
I am glad you are learning about eclipses. You don’t say what sign Fortuna is in, Pisces or Virgo?
Hi Jessica,
my DOB is 20/09/1975. I can say this whole year is very strange for me. I tried launch new activities in different areas of my life but these last six month especially in the area of finding new job. I am starting to be really tired and frustrated. I feel like I am still on the same point without moving things on. In others area of life too – to be a parent, to think about mouving to another city. Sometimes things start to move on and suddenly stopped and nothing happend for months. I really starting to have a doubts about myself. Am I or am I not able to identify situations correctly?
Can you tell me please if I can expect some positive changes with solar eclipse in my sign of Virgo?
Thank you for your advice.
The Virgo eclipse is about your image, title, personal appearance and packaging – and only that. Saturn is crossing your Ceres and Mars, so if you want to decode what is happening, hit Saturn on Search. Pick up my free ebook 2020 Astrology on 1st August to find out more about Saturn cycles too. This does end.
Hi Jessica,
The coming September 1 eclipse conjuncts my natal Pluto (by 2 degrees) and Proserpina (1 degree) and squares my Asc/Desc (2 degrees). Could you please let me know how this might affect me?
Thank you for your guidance!
The eclipse is on your Proserpina at 10 Virgo (one degree away) in your Sixth House of work, housework, unpaid work, university life (the daily routine) and also your body. We associate Proserpina in Virgo with women who are the go-between and act as a human bridge between two powerful people or organisations, negotiating the middle ground and trying to satisfy both sides. This is a lifelong pattern with you and you will be made sharply aware of it near the eclipse – allow 24 hours either side. As Proserpina is hit by the eclipse, be mindful of your role as the middle person with your job, unpaid work or study and be particularly aware of that, in relation to your physical condition, body, wellness and so on. You will not see all you need to see, or know all you need to know, at that time. One example would be a meeting where you negotiate between your boss and a rival CEO only to discover later that one of them was covering things up! Just be hip to all this.
Good Evening Jessica –
I am very concerned about major personal and professional matters going on. Would you be kind to look at my chart and let me know how these eclipses will impact me. I am burned out. I appreciate your assistance. Regards!
I can see why you are burned out. Pluto has been moving through Capricorn in your Tenth House of career, slowly, since 2008. Right now he is sitting at 16 Capricorn, just one degree away from your Venus. No wonder at least one professional relationship, possibly more, is concerning you so much. You can double that message if you are mixing your personal life with your job. Sometimes Venus in the Tenth House is not just about a workplace romance, it can accurately describe a woman in your business or profession, who has a complex love life and has toxic relationships with women. I sincerely hope this is not happening to you – but here is some practical advice. You will be given the gift of empowerment by Pluto on this cycle. You will ultimately bounce back massively and run your own ship or be captain of your own mission. To get the gift, you have to use your willpower and self control. Nothing else will work. Hit Pluto on ‘Search’ and pick up my ebook from 1st August because I have a whole chapter on Capricorn/Pluto in there for you to read. In the meantime pace yourself. You need to give your mind, body and spirit whatever it needs, so you can run your own life and be your own boss. Who cares what other people or organisations are trying to do? They are not the boss of your spirit and you can figure out your own way to be on top of this.
No it is not but thank you for checking. Unfortunately romance has been missing from my life for sometime. Smiles!!! You are awesome. As you mentioned I will cross that bridge. Timing is my only issue; I can’t afford rocking the boat in my career now. My plate is full across the board. I will tackle and strike each matter to focus on my next career move. I was hoping to take a break soon but it does not look like I will. Sincere regards!
Thank you!
Dear Jessica,
I had an eclipse on my birthday March 23rd, this year. Nothing significant happened during that period. Is there anything to look forward to in the upcoming eclipses in September.
Thanks a lot.
You were born with the Sun at 2 Aries and the eclipse on March 23rd saw the Sun at 3 Aries and Moon at 3 Libra, so it was one degree out (not exact). Still, you would have experienced an issue about your title, personal appearance, identity, profile and image where details were concealed or the true story was not clear. One example of this might have been on social media. Of course the reality of eclipses is that we don’t see what we need to see. Go back to your birthday and look again. You have your Jupiter Return at 5 Libra in the first half of October 2016. Take an opportunity to have more, experience more and learn more via your former, current or potential partner then.
Hi Jessica
when my life hit the financial and material brakes since 2012/3 & has been in a slow holding pattern every since..would this be due to Saturn ruling the roost in my chart? Not very clued up on astrology but have heard Saturn tends to put brakes on finances/career? Or would eclipses be the culprit? Thank you in advance
You have Neptune and the IC (Immum Coeli) at 19 Scorpio in your Eighth House of finance, business and property. You have been in the toughest cycle in 29 years for your money, house, apartment or company. So – not the eclipses, but definitely Saturn, as you suspected. If you want to look this up elsewhere, you had Transiting Saturn Conjunct Natal Neptune and Transiting Saturn Conjunct the IC. The worst is over. You will be very happy with the money you make or save from October 2018 into the third quarter of 2019 and in fact, what happens in the national/global economy then will be a whirlwind ride that you can benefit from – stay updated as much as you can on politics and business 2018-2019 as there will be extreme change and the smart money is on people who can keep up with it. For now, just rest assured that from 2nd August the final hangover from the financial tests and trials of Saturn in the last few years is over with a capital O!
Hi Jessica,
My birthday was bang on eclipse time this year in March. This year has been a rough one. I relocated overseas for work late last year and had a relationship break up as a part of that relocation with lots of miscommunication in November 2015. I’ve feel like I’ve been thoroughly tested in life since then! Is there any positive news about that relationship or life through these eclipses?
You were born with Juno at 9 Libra in the Seventh House which describes the relationship with your former, current or potential lover. Juno is about commitment. When Jupiter crosses 9 Libra in the second half of October 2016 you will have an opportunity not possible in 12 years to heal that relationship and gain closure (or restart it). If closure, then there will be a new date waiting, if you want it, from that point forward until October 2017. I am sorry you had a tough year – I can see why in your chart – but you will feel the atmosphere lift from the second week of September as Jupiter enters Libra.
Thanks so much Jessica! Here’s to some positive light ahead!
Hi Jessica!
It has been quite a busy Birthday year (Aug 2015 – now). There is just no stability – mentally. External things affecting me – hearing something or the other every single month! Right when I have an awesome time, there will be something opposite waiting to happen. Takes days or months to come out of it and boom when I do, one more thing! I can say in spite of all these I am a lot better compared to the last 3 or 4 years.Wondering which area of my chart will be affected with these eclipses to brace myself and if there is any romance in the near future?
Thanks as always!
Thank you. You have Diana at 23 Gemini in your Third House of internet, communication, ideas, and the mind. You currently have Uranus hitting 23 Aries sextile Diana so that is why you are experiencing the lack of mental stability. Find more about Diana in your Asteroid Astrology ebook and in my new ebook 2020 Astrology, out on 1st August. You have the best chance for love, sex and commitment in 12 years starting in the second week of September. By October 2017 any obstacles to you dating, mating and relating will be removed, if you use the opportunity you are given.
Hi Jessica. I have Sun in Leo, Moon in Aquarius and my rising sign in Cancer. How will the coming eclipse of 18 August 2016 affect me?
I’m sorry but it’s impossible to say without seeing your chart.
Hello Jessica, the timings that you note in any article are London or Sydney timings ? I live in Mumbai so need to know accordingly . Please can you confirm.
This website uses London time.
Hi Jessica , thank you for your horoscope for Pisces for September . I see from my personal chart that the eclipse will contact Hygeiea at 9 degrees of Virgo and Chiron at 9 degrees of Sagittarius . Can you enlighten me as to how I may experience that?
Many thanks Lynne
Thank you. Yes, this ‘ring of fire’ eclipse falls right on Hygiea at 9 Virgo in your Sixth House, which rules your daily workload, your sense of service and duty to others, your lifestyle, routine and above all – your body, and the way your physical state dictates who you are and what you do. This side of yourself is normally so practical, cautious and careful both about health and about work, yet it is in conflict with another side of yourself, which is far more daring and experimental, and comes alive whenever you travel, study, teach, use the worldwide web, deal with foreign people and places, or pursue your particular beliefs. Skip this entire eclipse period as you just won’t see what you need to see, about either area of your life. It may not be until the Moon passes 9 Virgo again in the final three days of September 2015 that you begin to get an inkling. I would take this seriously as from September 28th 2016 through January 11th, 2017, we find Neptune passing over 9 Pisces, which creates what we call a T-Square with your natal Chiron-Hygiea placement. Be really careful with people who abuse drugs or alcohol, and with any unseen or invisible influences which might be having a subtle yet confusing effect on your work, your body and also your travels, your web use and so on. Just be aware. Awareness is all you need. You can read more about all this in the new book 2020 Astrology, free to download – or just hit Search.
Hi Jessica. Thanks so much for your September horoscopes – very intriguing! Looks like some of the aspects this month do directly hit points in my chart, especially this eclipse tonight. I have Minerva at 9 Virgo …. not sure what significance this might have. Life really seems to be in a holding pattern at the moment – trying to conceive another child, hoping to make a big relocation for us to be closer to extended family & waiting, waiting, waiting on a lump sum (husband’s inheritance) to come through, but nothing seems to be moving in any of those areas. Hoping all this cosmic action might translate to good news soon. Any insights please?
This eclipse, specifically, is about your Minerva at 9 Virgo which may involve your attempt at pregnancy. The reason for this is that Minerva is in Virgo in your Sixth House, which rules your lifestyle, daily routine, body, workload, chores, service and duty to others – and specifically, drugs, doctors, food, drink, fitness and healers. Please allow the eclipse to pass. You are normally very wise about all these issues, described here, as Minerva is the asteroid who reveals tremendous insight, intelligence and ‘knowing’ in your chart. You may want to suspend judgements until the ‘Ring of Fire’ eclipse has passed you by. Mercury Retrograde in your Sixth House until October 7th also suggests a story in flux, so you may want to nail down the details later, rather than earlier – they have a habit of changing on this cycle.
Dear Jessica, Brilliant work on the horoscopes as usual! I always look forward to your daily/weekly/monthly horoscopes, worth the read and mostly true. Thanks for giving us these snippets during eclipses and retrogrades, very helpful. Also, how do these shape a Leo’s personal life, would I be married soon please? I have been forever waiting to be married! Born Aug 21, Leo female. Pisces rising. Many thanks,
Thank you. There is no signature for marriage (exclusively) in astrology so I’m afraid I can’t answer that question. Also, you haven’t logged in, so I can’t actually see your personal birth chart, as a Premium Member. Do you want to try again?
Hi Jessica,
I use to look at my chart in placidus, then ventured to equal signs and then to whole signs. Now I am attempting to delve into natural houses so Its a bit of a shift for me. I do have a general question if you dont mind. My MC is in Virgo so is this my career house or do I still look at it as the 6th house of daily work, coworkers, health?
I was just looking at my monthly horoscope and noticed this recent new moon in virgo is hitting my nodes, MC/IC and my chiron. Any thoughts on this, especially the nodes?
Interesting thing with chiron I noticed, there has been a lot of “key” symbolism lately both in real life and dreams….actual keys, “key”boards, lol
Thanks for all the info you put out there for us all, it is much appreciated!!
Thank you. Your MC in Virgo goes into the Sixth House in the Natural House system, so your calling in life is to pursue service and duty to others, while also honouring the fact that your physical state and physical condition is paramount. Virgo the Virgin is the only one of the 12 zodiac signs to be defined by her body – the ‘maiden’ or young, unmarried girl of ancient times was, of course, responsible for all the household chores (serving) and it was her physical condition (intact virginity) that dictated her whole life! Pluto at 24 Virgo is a good one to check for you, as a test for Natural Houses. When Jupiter moved to 24 Virgo on August 12 through 16 there should have been an opportunity to take control of your lifestyle, work, body, daily routine and so on. When Mercury began shadow retrograde at 24 Virgo on August 20, there would have been the start of a forwards/backwards/forwards story – once again about your working day, your body and so on. This is already getting in the way of what would otherwise have been a smooth period of taking the reins for you – yet it will work out. Of course transiting Chiron at 24 Pisces in your Twelfth House is opposing your natal Pluto at 24 Virgo in your Sixth House, so it’s complicated. The key is the key. Keep decoding your dreams.
Hi Jessica
The Pisces Lunar eclipse is hitting my Fortuna as Sun conjunct Fortuna at 24 Virgo. Since 12/9 my anxiety is at peak and had asthma attacks. The reason for anxiety I sorted it with my husband – my mother in law’s visit. He calmed me which was a surprise.
As you previously adviced I am writing my journal with good thoughts and wishes. I have never used alcohol /drugs or smoked. I regularly have good work outs.
What woud this eclipse mean? I know what fortuna is but how would I apply the Virgo and eclipse theme to it?
Thank you and god bless you.
I remember your concern about your mother-in-law and I am glad your husband calmed you. However, you have Apollo in Virgo in the Sixth House, which rules your body and physical condition – so you are actually good at looking after your own wellbeing too. In fact, anxiety is the right place to begin, as there are some tried, tested and trusted ways to manage anxiety which cost nothing and can change your life. If you have not yet managed to find a library book by Dr. Claire Weekes do look for her on YouTube. Asthma is obviously a medical issue but your nervous system can be managed and your Virgo chart signature says you could eventually help others by explaining how you helped yourself. The more you investigate your Virgo side the better, as you will come to see that the tiniest things (a teaspoon of sugar, to quote Mary Poppins) or even just one pill, can affect your entire system. There is usually a big question to be asked about purity with Virgo – so purity of ingredients, colours, flavours, additives and the rest. It’s always in the small print on labels and this stuff comes in tiny quantities, but actually, Virgo rules the very small things which can make a massive difference to the body, and then the mind. This is more important to look at than the eclipse itself and you have plenty of time to do so. Yoga is obviously the ‘Queen’ of all body/mind disciplines!
Dear Jessica thank you for this amazing article.
My dob is17 september 1975. Me and my sister decided to book a holiday with our parents for november. My dad another virgo born 24 August 1944 has been quite unwell lately so we decided to have a family holiday. We booked it today on the eclipse day. Please tell me there’s nothing to worry and that everything will be fine.
Thank you for your help. Mina.
Thank you. I am sorry your dad has not been well. All your major family questions will be answered in November and December, so you actually chose a holiday quite unconsciously – which would give you all a chance to talk more deeply and go into all the issues, not only about the family itself, but also the house or apartment which is raising a major question. You will be able to make a fresh start at the New Moon on 29th November, no matter what you and your sister decide to do. The best way to handle this cycle is to seek out the experience and expertise of those who have been in a similar situation before you. It will make a big difference.
On September 8th, I found empty wines bottles hidden by my partner. He is drinking and hiding it from me.
I have,
Sun Virgo 10
Chiron Pisces 24
Venus Leo 23
Jupiter Cancer 25
Bacchus Sagittarius 22
?????
I am sorry your partner is an alcoholic. I can’t read a chart from five factors and I certainly can’t see his chart to comment, unfortunately. What I can tell you is that you have Neptune transiting your Seventh House of love and you are also having Chiron go through there too. Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries! I have known people to successfully give up drinking at Alcoholic Anonymous. I have also seen their partners helped by groups set up for the partners of alcoholics. I am sorry you are going through it but unless you put down an anchor, look for the light house and follow the red and yellow flags, you are going to drift further. The time to act is now.
My situation is still the same, I have signed up for one month’s premium membership this week for more insight. A big step for me, I’m not one to splash out unless it is really worth it!
I have had a terrible, terrible last few years, maybe you can see that in my chart?
My crumbling marriage to a heavy drinker is a major point, also my children being affected. Other issues are my family dynamics changing and finally my one outlet, pursuing my career which is like wading through mud at times!
The crumbling marriage to a heavy drinker automatically makes me look for Neptune in your birth chart. This planet symbolises the sea, so we associate it with erosion (like a chalk cliff crumbling under the sea spray) but also with people who are ‘all at sea’ so this of course is your husband. You will ultimately reach a point where you can either continue without him, or you will no longer be affected by the issue. Venus, Mars, Panacea and Psyche in Leo in your Fifth House are about the children and from May 2017, the North Node will change signs to Leo, where it remains through 2018. The North Node brings the past back, to teach you about the present, and you will find that what happened many years ago (possibly around the time of their birth, or other milestones in their lives) returns, to assist you. You are strongly Leo and your life path will involve being ‘Queen’ to a younger court – not only your own children, who you can lead, guide and mentor – but also other people’s children, so nieces, nephews, godchildren or even youth as a whole. 2017 and 2018 are good years to explore this as younger people will always inherit the legacy of your personality and your heirs to throne (your line of succession on this planet) should be your first priority. You can read more about your Leo side in your ebooks or on this website.
Many thanks, however I never realised I had Leo so strong, I presumed that I was more Virgo?
Are there any other major factors that stand out in my chart, especially changes, good or bad?
You’ll go back to the years 1999, 2000 over the next two years and find influences from that time come back to you, so you can use them – to your advantage.
Hello Jessica, How will this eclipse affect me?
The short answer is, we have to wait for Mercury to pass 24 Virgo to finish the story, and that happens around October 4th, 2016. What story? Well, you are not directly affected by this, but there is a major amount of muddle, half-truths, evasion and general flakiness from this eclipse, and it is all about doctors, the medical profession, athletes, perfect bodies and imperfect bodies. Watch.
Thanks Jessica, hope you can help me with my question. I have saturn at 23 virgo, juno 25 cancer and mars at 22 leo.
Every year I get these digestion issues tha t stays for like few months before subsiding. This year it started in june and I started feeling better from this month. I got many tests done and even saw a gastroentrologist. How do i see this in relation to this eclipse.
Thanks for you time!
The eclipse is best avoided for issues like this because it falls across Virgo in the Sixth House of the body and you are asking about your digestion. You need to find out more about how Virgo and the Sixth House operate in your life – typically, the body will ‘create’ circumstances which our mind or soul really want – but we consciously don’t have the courage or certainty to pursue. I will give you an example. The proud mother of the bride who must star at her daughter’s wedding but secretly cannot stand the groom, will mysteriously develop the one thing that is going to stop her, on the big day – a rash all over her face from an allergic reaction to make-up. There are a lot of people better qualified than me to talk to you about the unconscious and the body, and some amazing books and websites are out there if you want to begin the search. Pisces and the Twelfth House is the unconscious and it is opposite Virgo and the Sixth House which is the body. I heard the word ‘Hemingway’ for you on a psychic level. I don’t know if this is relevant. Maybe you are about to find out.
Hi could you please advise me on how the lunar eclipse will effect me, especially in my love life and business. Should I be making any decisions about what I should be doing next in both these areas ? Many thanks
Always avoid a lunar eclipse (a flakey Full Moon) for decisions. Let the Moon pass out of the sign where it is causing the issues – this is hours away now. If you have the luxury of making big choices any time at all, you may want to make for this pesky Mercury Retrograde cycle to finish as well, from 7th October 2016. Love life choices will be so much easier in October than they have been for months – even years. Business options come up in November. So if you do have the blessing of time and space, use this period to doodle, draw, sketch, make notes and erase them – you can come up with the plan later.
Hi Jessica. That was some week. And it does not yet seem to be over. I have many factors in Capricorn (pls see chart) and my troubles have been with my partner. Not seeing clearly where he is. He has Venus at 23 cancer, cupido at 24 Capricorn, panacea at 22 Scorpio. Please help me sort through what is happening. How will all this resolve? Many thanks.
I am sorry you are having a tough week with your partner. His horoscope is being triggered by Chiron at 23 Pisces, Uranus at 23 Aries and of course this pesky eclipse at 24 Pisces and Virgo. He needs tons of time and space. For a start, wait for the Moon to leave Pisces and get out of the eclipse zone. That is hours away now. Be patient with Uranus at 23 Aries as it swings back and forth until January 2018 when it finally clears 24 Aries and it is out of his hair (and yours). Basically your partner has a T-Square and T stands for tension. He has Venus at 23 Cancer in the Fourth House of family, home, property, home town and homeland – right opposite Cupido at 24 Capricorn in the Tenth House of ambition, social status, achievement, position and mission. I am sure he feels as if there is a long electrical storm crackling all around him. I wonder if you are manifesting Uranus for him, or someone else is? In other words, do you seem to be the source of the world turning upside-down, or is it his boss, his mother or ‘the world’ in general? Read more on Uranus to see what he is feeling. He needs to ground and earth. The shed should do it. If he doesn’t have a shed, he needs to hit the local park.
Finally some clarity. There has been uncharacteristic behavior possibly related to Cupido. Mother is also a preoccupation. He has Vesta in Libra at 9 so is this really something that will last thru 2017 and beyond? Is space and time the best that I can do or are there more proactive moves that my chart might suggest. Thanks again for your wisdom.
Your partner may be playing the Vesta game with you and his mother. Be aware of that (look Vesta up on Search or in your ebooks). Men do it with their wives and mothers, as well as with their first wife, second wife and daughters. Don’t play the game. I’m afraid this cycle does take time to finish, but if you read about Uranus in transit you will see exactly what he is going through and what to do/what not to do.
Hi Jessica, hope you are well. I’d like to know how I am affected by this eclipse as I have a number of factors at 23-25. Moon Gemini 23, Mercury 23 Leo, Venus 23 Cancer, Apollo 24 Leo, Proserpina 23 Gemini, Northnode 25 Capricorn and Southnode 25 Cancer. Thats a few hits! Thank you, have a lovely day.
Thank you. Yes, you have a few chart patterns being triggered now. I am sure you know Gemini rules communication (especially on the computer), Leo rules the younger generation or courtship, Cancer rules family, home or property and Capricorn rules career. In general, wait until this afflicted Moon is well and truly out of Pisces before you do anything drastic/call final judgement. Depending on your time zone, you can track that on this website or at other places on the internet like astro.com.
So helpful! Thx Jess.
I think my chart must have been well and truly triggered. Restless sleep, woke from a dream in which Mr Current/Poential was being pursued by another who I didn’t know about and I was being locked out! Something I’m not seeing? Currently a long distance relationship with big fantasy component so that fits in with Venus in Gemini and various Pisces factors (he’s Venus in Pisces). I should be careful?
You’re having a dream message about Saturn going through your solar Seventh House. This is your public horoscope (your private horoscope is of course your birth chart). Being locked out is typical as Saturn rules walls and barriers. You will figure out exactly where you stand with your long-distance lover at the Full Moon a fortnight before Christmas 2016.
Knew about the eclipse, still did something stupid, accepted a job at a low rate, don’t even know why! Not even sure if I can, given my physical condition!! Desperate need of money, I suppose! Luckily it’s a short one, 2.5 wks! I am also in the midst of setting up my new vocation, hopefully this won’t get in the way of that! Body/work has been a real issue all year. Saturn 25 & Chiron 23 Pisces, Juno 24 Cancer. Wonder what they’re doing! Psyche at 25 Leo is making me feel better! Would appreciate your thoughts, if you have a moment! Thank you!
I am sure a job that lasts just over two weeks won’t bother you. You have a Virgo stellium so your body ‘takes’ the issues that your conscious mind will not allow. In astrology, Virgo rules the Sixth House – your physical condition, drugs, fitness, doctor, healer, surgeon, food and so on. Pisces is right opposite, ruling the Twelfth House of the unconscious mind. When you ignore what your soul or mind wants, your body often acts up so that circumstances arrive which will deliver what you wanted or needed – yet without you having to take ownership of the situation because you can blame it on an illness or disease. This is a very hardline and confronting thing to put down on paper, I know, but you can feel free to ignore it and tell me to go away. I have seen this information change too many people’s lives for the better not to tell you, though. This is why drummers get broken arms, when they secretly dislike their band, but dancers get twisted ankles when they are sick of the ballet. I am really not the expert on any of this, but there are a ton of Mind, Body Spirit and more broadminded medical professionals who can go into the strange secret link between the unconscious mind and the body. I recommend you find exactly the right expert who can help you. As an astrologer I can only go so far. Feel free to read widely about Virgo, Pisces, the Sixth House and the Twelfth House on this website and in your ebooks, though. You have Saturn at 25 Pisces opposite Venus at 25 Virgo. Dig into that. Maybe you’ll have that ‘Aha!’ moment.
Hello Rock Star of the Stars!
I love your work!
Here we are in the middle of this eclipse and my belly is full of butterflies. Something must be happening somewhere. Or maybe just too much coffee :)
I have a couple of factors around these degrees you mention but not sure how they all inter-relate. Love your guidance again.
Maybe its the Uranus at 23 Aries getting me all giddy-up and looking for a revolution. . .
Have an awesome day
Thank you so much. Honestly, I used to write about rock stars (I even got to talk to Kurt Cobain) but I am about as far away from a rock star as you will ever meet. The butterflies are typical of the Uranus 23 Aries patterns right now. Uranus is associated with our nervous system!
Hi Jessica, I have Chiron at 24 Pisces, Ceres at 25 Gemini and and Jupiter at 25 Cancer. A couple of days ago I started exploring a new path in terms of potential work and things have taken a life of their own and moving faster than I expected down that path. I also have a very important event coming up on 21 to 23 September. Is there something the eclipse is hiding and should I be concerned about last week’s developments? Many thanks for your insights.
By now the eclipse has passed so you will be shown (or see) what and who the issue is – and why you now need to go back and read/look/think again. I don’t know what kind of work you do, but Pisces rules secret jobs (like MI6) and confidential projects or classified information (common in the legal and medical profession, or in some aspects of business). Pisces also rules people who operate behind the scenes, as if they were invisible. Gemini rules multimedia, education and publishing. Cancer rules real estate, property, and all matters tied to families, houses, apartments, land, councils and governments with responsibility for the home front. I will leave it to you to work out the rest. Of course it is possible that your work project involves all three areas, so it may be highly confidential, on the worldwide web and involve the council on planning development. Your event across 21st-23rd September will involve some details which are still not played out, known or explained yet these will emerge October 4th-7th once Mercury crosses 24, 25 Virgo for the final time. You will realise that a lot of what went down in August and September was not fixed or final and was always going to be subject to flux.
Hi Jessica, I have Saturn at 20 Virgo and Hygeia at 22 Pisces. Will the eclipse have any impact on me? I haven’t been feeling well lately as I have MS, however a lot of this comes from stress from my job. Will this eclipse help me in finding a new job at all? Thank you very much, I loved the article.
The eclipse did not have an impact on you and as you read this it will have passed you by. I am sorry you have Multiple Sclerosis. I have two friends who live with it. You have a stellium in Virgo and the Sixth House and the True North Node is one of the factors, so you have past life experience in dealing with the mind, body and spirit connection. You may, for example, have been a surgeon in another life, or even lived with a medical condition before. If you broaden your idea about ‘job’ to just include ‘work’ and allow yourself to think laterally about what it might mean to work, you will stand a better chance of finding a way to live (and manage your MS) which rewards you, not only financially, but also in terms of knowing you have been edging closer and closer to delivering ‘perfect’ for other people. This is actually what your Virgo stellium is all about. So, for example, you might job-share one role in a part-time capacity, then have unpaid work for a couple of hours a week, or take work experience in a field you love – maybe just for a week here and there. Alternatively you could alter your ideas about what you want from work. If it is a question of a fixed salary, could you make savings in other areas and take a lower-paid job/s but gain from the joy of throwing yourself into something you are passionate about? This is what I mean about thinking laterally, regarding work. We have a couple of key Virgo transits coming into your life from October so now is the time to start asking questions, though of course, the final decisions are your own.
Hi Jessica,
I have Juno at 24 Pisces conjunct my natal north node, and some other factors at 22 and 23. How do you see this eclipse playing out in my chart.
Thank you!
The Juno conjunction to your True North Node at 24 Pisces has now been passed by the eclipse. Of course, you also have the True South Node at 24 Virgo at the same time. Take a closer, more watchful look at the secret you hide or the role you play behind the scenes. It involves marriage or you ‘wedding’ or committing yourself to something/someone. Take a closer look at matters of work, and the body. What did you miss? There’s a clue.
Hi Jessica,
Since some months I have been so busy with work I wasn’t reading your website much (I was an avid follower before) But 2 weeks ago I had a hunch ! I came here only to find out about this eclipse. I have been having bad dreams too. Can you tell me how the eclipse will effect my chart.
Sun: 26 Virgo
Panacea: 23 Aries
Minerva: 23 Taurus
Psyche: 23 Leo
Asclepius: 24 Scorpio
Also, I met this new guy at work and I can’t stop thinking about him. The universe must be playing some games ’cause in a multi-floored office I keep bumping into him (literally) !
The eclipse is over now, but in general, the most obvious issue is your money, house, land, apartment, charity, business or possessions. You were born with an opposition between Minerva at 23 Taurus in the Second House and Aesculapius at 24 Scorpio in the Eighth House. Over the last four days, other people’s secrets, their health issues, their work situation have affected this. You will not know why. Instead, what you need to do is ask yourself which organisation or person seems shady to you? Which organisation or person seems to be playing games or not entirely straight, open and upfront? You do not have to be Sherlock to figure it out. Now, go back over the details of an important matter that’s on your agenda now and instead of assuming it’s all fine or can be treated lightly, really dig down very deeply and see what is there.
Hi Jessica
Thanks for another great article, anything moon related resonates strongly with me. I have Jupiter, IC and MC at 24 and would love your insight. I’m feeling the need to make a decision on my work/ business situation but wondering what info I might be missing after reading this. Is this eclipse likely to affect me?
Thank you. You have Jupiter at 24 Taurus in your Second House of money, business, charity, possessions and property. This is at the core of the eclipse so turn to that first. Ask yourself what important recent development or plan is now on your agenda, in regard to this. Understand that other people, or large organisations, are having health issues they are concealing, or are keeping secrets that are under lock and key. You may have suspicions, or doubts about individuals or companies which seem shady to you, or partly concealed, or not entirely open! Just be aware that what you need to do is check – and check again. It is always smart to zero in on these matters anyway. You will see what was actually going on by October 7th as Mercury crosses that Virgo point and all is revealed.
Hi Jessica
,
I am always grateful to your response to my questions. Love your guidance again.
I have Uranus at 24 degs Cancer of home and family , Jupiter in Cancer 25 degs. This lunar eclipse has also touched my husband’s IC at 23 degs Virgo and 23 degs Pisces , Moon 25 degs Pisces 12th House of secrets, role behind the scene attending to his brother. His sun is 11 degs Sagitaurius. What am I not seeing here ? Is he thinking of leaving his current job and returning to hometown. Thanks for taking the time to help.
Thank you very much. You have Uranus at 24 Cancer in the Fourth House of home and family, conjunct Jupiter. Your husband (if his birth time is accurate) has the IC/MC axis right on the eclipse. I will focus on you, rather than anyone else, as I don’t have the other charts. Essentially, there was a work or health story for someone else – possibly your husband or his brother – which you don’t fully know about. This has had a passing impact on your house, family, apartment, household, home town or homeland in the last few days. You still don’t have the full story but if you go back and look closely at what is there, either in terms of a close relative, a property question or similar, you will see that you need to check again. Go over everything in the clear light of day. You can do this over the next two weeks.
Hi Jessica,
I have mars 25 degrees Sagittarius also at the same time, I have mars a returns to it’s natal position, do you think this eclipse will activate in my chart in anyway?.
Do you see this eclipse playing out in the coming future.
Thanks.
The eclipse is over now. There was one very big blind spot with a lot of denial involved. There was a second mystery, or potential cover-up, which still raises questions. The whole story will be uncovered around you in October. This concerns, very directly, your travel, worldwide web, foreign, regional, publishing and/or educational agenda. If there is a person involved in a recent trip (for example), book, website, export agreement, thesis and so on – and this person seems shady anyway – go back over everything with a fine-toothed comb, please.
Hi Jessica,
I am Virgo (Sun in 27deg) and I have Vesta in 24 Pices. Then I have the North Node in 23deg in Scorpio and the South Node in 23deg Taurus, Aesculapia in 23deg Leo andFortuna in 25deg Cancer. Can you tell me have I am affected by this eclipse.
What is strange that whenever there is an significant event in astrology and my chart is directly affected, I don ´t feel it imediatelly on the D-day, but only some weeks or months later when I return back to your article I realise what was this significant event for me. Is it normal? How can I then prevent myself from what can happen when sometimes I feell like everything is the same as any other day.
Thank you very much? Jessica for all your work that you do for all of us
Thank you. Yes, this eclipse will have aspected your Vesta, Nodes, Aesculapia and Fortuna. This eclipse is now over so you need to do some detective work and look at who/what is shady (and you know it) who may have been affecting the money, house, apartment, possessions, land, business or charity. Go back and look again at what is on paper, on your computer or under discussion. You will see the whole story in October once Mercury crosses the same spot in Virgo as that eclipse.
Jessica,
I loved your article. My birthday is September 9th at 11:33 Central Time in US and this year has been an absolutely wild ride, with many highs professionally and academically, but then I also found my spouse (Cancer) has been having an affair, which came to light (on our 10th wedding anniversary no less!) sending my life into a mental and emotional tailspin. I have Neptune at 24 in my 5th house and Mars at 23 in my 6th house. I am starting to settle down a bit emotionally, but because my birthday is sandwiched between these two eclipses and because of the absolutely wild and surreal circumstances I have experienced thus far this year, I am wondering what is this eclipse hiding or initiating in my life. This year I have experienced the most emotionally intense year of my life and know the universe/God has orchestrated a shift in my life, but what might I need to look for with this eclipse? Kindly, C. Ryan
Thank you. I am so sorry your Cancer husband was unfaithful. Your 10th wedding anniversary is an awful time to find out. You don’t give a birth year, but you are a Sun Virgo with Neptune in her solar Seventh House of marriage at the moment and Pluto in her solar fifth house of children. The eclipse would not have been about either. Your entire issue is those twin transits of Neptune and Pluto. His entire issue is the very recent transit of Saturn through his solar Fifth House of children and Pluto, still transiting his Seventh House of marriage. If you want to get to the heart of everything, look at past pregnancies (carried to term, or not), sons and daughters now (if you have them) and related issues, like godchildren, nieces and nephews. Christmas is the time. Why? The Sun will shed light, illuminate and reveal. No more confusion.
Thanks Jessica. I have had a sick feeling for months now that it isn’t my pregnancies I need to be worried about, but perhaps the other woman. I will await what is revealed at Christmas.
Libra and Leo rule your former, current or potential partner and any children in your world. Other people having work or body issues recently had an impact on that, although you would have been kept in the dark about the full story. You need to go back and check again. You assumed something/someone was okay and actually, you need to make sure it is. I suspect you already know exactly who and what I am talking about.
He is not going to commit to you or anyone else long-term until at least May 2018 as he is learning about freedom, space and independence by experimenting with the idea of love. So I don’t know what you are looking for, but in the short term, there is no stability here. It’s a game that changes every week, every month.
Thank you. The eclipse will not have an impact on your salary or job. An easy way to learn about your chart is to understand that you have a stellium in Scorpio, the sign which rules finance, property and business. If you want to make or save money, watch what happens from the final week of October 2016 until the third week of November. See how you react and respond and become aware of your own patterns, habits and attitudes. Ask yourself if that works for you or not. Give yourself a review. Knowing yourself better will make or save you a lot of money from October 2017 until May 2018. Long-term you need to become an expert on Scorpio matters – the economy, taxation and particularly the banking system. You were born to do it. Other people around you are going to need a lot of help from 2018 onwards. If you have the expertise you will gain and also fulfil your cosmic purpose. Read more about this on the Uranus in Taurus/Jupiter in Scorpio thread.
Hi Jessica,
I’ve had a few months of feeling quite “stuck.” Things were going really well and very suddenly everything changed. I am a Pisces with Cancer ascendant. How will the next three months fare for me?
Thanks,
AJ
You have a Pisces stellium in the Twelfth House of your birth chart so you are experiencing Neptune transiting your Twelfth House, and as he passes through this long, slow cycle he conjuncts (or sits on) every Pisces factor you have. If you are being obstructed and you feel stuck, it is because you need to use this time to go inside, not into the outside world. People with this transit are often confused by the difficulty they have in making things happen in the real world, but the moment they turn to inner pursuits like meditation, clairvoyance, healing, mediumship, spirituality – everything works. I think this might be happening with you. Your Pisces side wants to express itself and sometimes the only way that can happen is for normal, everyday things like money, success or sex to stop delivering!
Many thanks for great insight Jessica
Will this eclipse provide the money relief for Pisces people?
Regards
It’s not the eclipse that provides financial hope for Pisces, it is Jupiter in Libra and you need to set some goals on the New Moon in Libra on 1st October which is easily the most helpful and stunning New Moon of the year. By 2017 you will make or save money.
Hi Jessica,
This eclipse season has been a dozy! I wound up in the hospital on the day of the most recent eclipse, Pisces is my first house. Luckily, I’m ok but it was not what I expected! Wow. Also, my ex-girlfriend and I met up and had an extremely open and emotional conversation that resulted in even more confusion than was already there to begin with. She and I had talked about marriage previously: I wasn’t ready then and she’s not ready now. However, the situation doesn’t seem to be resolved. Did the eclipse close that window of opportunity or is it possible for us to work things out in the coming year while Jupiter is in Libra? Her date of birth is July 4th 1983. Thanks kindly for any insight!
You have Vulcano at 25 Scorpio in the Eighth House of sex, money, death, power and property and the eclipse at 24 Virgo and Pisces made an almost exact pattern to that. I am sorry you ended up in hospital, although that was not so much the eclipse. That unusual Sun-Moon opposition was actually about your former girlfriend. You will find out everything you need to know from the final week of October until the third week of November as the Sun passes through Scorpio and illuminates all the details. At that point, she needs to be honest about her desire to be a mother (or not) and you need to look at the realities of the money, house or apartment between you. That is actually what that eclipse was all about. I am glad you made a full recovery.
Hi Jessica I need once again your precious advice ! I wanted to to asked you something about this eclipse and the retrograde in my money zone…I have been pursuing a project to import french clothes brands to Canada for 2 years and it’s been really really difficult, from flaky customers to investing money and having nothing in return. I had “closed the door” on this project and the hope of going back to my home country and started planning on staying in France to continue working on my e-shop. So I finally tell the man who has been helping us with the project (he’s the boss of a brand, a nice guy but very elusive) that it’s over. He comes back RIGHT after the eclipse. Tells me that I should give it one more try proposing a couple of intermediary solutions. Meaning I would have to hop on a plane to Canada in a week and pursue what I had left. I still can’t decide if this is again some sort of illusion, or is this my last chance to get this right…The retrograde is in my money zone. I would still have to put some money in this venture, I don’t know if this is the right thing to do…Thanks so much for any advice.
I don’t know what your time frame is, but if you have the luxury of waiting until past October 7th, 2016 to talk to this man in Canada, you may prefer to do it then. We are coming out of a chain of eclipses and Mercury Retrograde when everyone is a) blind b) concealing the truth or c) in conscious denial! This is not just about you, it is about the whole world and its trade/business. Can you possibly keep talking and doing your homework? Because if you can, that helps you, according to your horoscope and the rules of astrology.
Hi Jessica,
I always appreciate your insight!
I am concerned about professional matters! I work in international affairs and I have held this position since two years and a half! I would like to stay/ keep this workplace for two more years !
What do u See in my chart professionally? Any change , for better or worse?
Thank you.
You have Pluto circling your Bacchus in Capricorn (you can track this every week on this website) so I am not surprised at your concern about staying where you are … and also climbing higher. Best bet for you is to be super flexible, ultra responsive, light on your feet, ready to move and all the rest. There is no way you can go through 2019 and 2020 without seismic change in this workplace or your whole industry. The future belongs to those who know how to respond in the moment, yet it should be easy for you to do that! Do not invest too heavily in the top strata because they are always the first to go, when Saturn and Pluto are both in Capricorn. It will work out.
