Solar Eclipse September 21, 2025 at 3:55 PM EST
This 2nd New Moon in Virgo brings a partial Solar Eclipse. The Lunar Eclipse allowed us to release and let go of all those things that were no longer of service or benefit to us. This Solar Eclipse is where we hit the reset button emotionally and spiritually. This is where we take to the opportunity to reformat after the reset. The reset is the action that gives us the ability to clear the slate or the old programming that is no longer beneficial. The reformatting is the process which enables us to upload the new processes, new programming, and the necessary upgrades needed to continue forward on our path.
New Moon in Virgo at 29 degrees
This is the 2nd New Moon in Virgo and it land at 29 degrees Virgo. 29 degrees is a critical degree and known as the anaretic degree. The placement of this New Moon is one of mastery. The 1st New Moon at 0 degrees embodied the fullness of Virgo the good and bad. The service, duality, precision, perfection, practicality, support, planning, as well as the mental confusion, overt criticism, slacking, self-consciousness, and disorganization. At 29 degrees, we’ve had the ability to experiment. Go through the trials and see the errors. We’ve had the opportunity to be a student and learn the different ways planning works, how to support others, mitigate the noise, and be constructive with our advice. Here at 29 degrees is where we heal and teach others through our lessons. The first New Moon is where we embodied self and this second one is where we see our worth, our growth.
Placements and Aspects to Look out for
Mutual reception between Mercury in Libra at 5 degrees and Venus in Virgo at 2 degrees
This mutual reception is a power swap between Mercury and Venus. Mercury is in a Venus ruled sign and Venus is in a Mercury ruled sign. Venus, who is in fall in Virgo, benefits from this relationship. Mercury pushes Libran concepts back on to the Venus, and Venus pushes those Virgoan concepts back on to Mercury. The Mercury influences the New Moon by projecting a sense of balance and initiation into the New Moon’s engagements. At 5 degree Libra, Mercury has an element of confidence, creativity, and understanding in the role it must play. Venus in Virgo at 2 degrees brings the elements of specificity, truth, and transformation along with a sense of value in oneself.
Mars in Libra at 29 degrees
Mars in Libra is another planet in this New Moon chart that is at an anaretic degree or degree of mastery. Mars has traversed the Libra and now has a better understanding of how to initiate and maybe even temper itself during their engagement. Mars in Libra moves with a sense of hesitancy at first. It wants to be the crusader, but sometimes doesn’t know exactly how to go about that. At 29 degrees, Mars has learned how to move intentionally with a sense of purpose and engage with decorum. At 29 degrees, Mars has their eye on the pitcher and knows when to strike, in order to get on base. Here it’s not about the homerun, but making meaning contact. Sometimes it’s great to knock it out the park, but other times you have to walk step-by-step with someone to get your point home. Mars has also learned that if too little pressure is applied there’s no movement, and if too much is applied things are pushed away. So, it has developed its techniques to apply the right amount of pressure to balance the seesaw.
Grand Air Trine
The trine between the generation planets, Pluto in Aquarius at 1 degree and Uranus in Gemini at 1 degree, will be in place for a while. Both are retrograde. The 1 degree Pluto is working on internal transformation by digging in the recesses of the unconscious mind by bringing those thoughts of identity, innovation, and your place in the collective to the surface. Uranus in Gemini on the other hand is internalizing and processing the movements of society, rules of engagement with different groups, and how to the many aspects and talents of self while vacillating through assembly of individuals that you align with on different levels. To create and complete this Grand Air Trine Mercury moves into position during this solar eclipse in Libra at 5 degrees. Now we have a meeting of the conscious (Mercury), unconscious (Pluto), and higher conscious (Uranus) minds. The ease of flow of energy from the trines allow Mercury to gather and deduce in real-time. The Mercury in Libra is about balancing relationships. It is looking to see the details of where things don’t equal out and path they took to see where the divergence took place. Through this Grand trine, Mercury has the ability to see this through the three levels of relationship; personal (one on one), interpersonal (two or more), and transpersonal (society at large). This energy will be pivotal during this eclipse in determining how you think and speak your new formatting into existence.
Saturn in Pisces at 28 degrees opposes the New Moon in Virgo
Saturn in Pisces at 28 degrees retrograde is not in the most favorable position. Saturn being the planet of structure, discipline, and consequences is back in the sign of emotions, spirituality, and blind faith. Here Saturn is internally dealing with how to create boundaries, spiritual structure, and organize something that does function practically or logically, which are emotions. Saturn is looking for somewhere to hang their hat and Pisces is saying to Saturn “reach up and believe it’s there.” Saturn is the form giver but its nature is concreteness and Pisces is fluid, which becomes challenging. The Saturn challenge to the New Moon is rebuilding yourself from the ground up where you just feel your way into what’s right. The New Moon has traversed Virgo and realizes proper planning is in order. The balance point here is to continuously feel into the plan. The details, planning, and organization are what you need. But you also need to align mentally and emotionally with the actions you carry out. Virgo and Pisces are both trying to teach us in their own way, to live in the moment. But most importantly become the moments. Allow these moments to enter your system and circulate through you. Don’t just live life, become life.
