Eclipse in Virgo Horoscope
Today, March 14, 2025, a Lunar Eclipse will take place at 23°56’ Virgo.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun & Moon oppose (Full Moon) close to one of the Nodes of the Moon (which are always exactly 180° apart). When the Nodes move through a pair of signs (over approx. 18 months), eclipses happen in the houses of our chart which contain these signs.
Eclipses are dramatic, unpredictable events - however, the stories they represent unfold through longer periods of time & are not always spectacular! A good way to understand the themes they will activate in your life is to look at the & houses the Nodes transit in your chart.
In the third decan of Virgo and opposite Saturn, this lunar eclipse shines a stark light on the transitory nature of our existence. Friends and family come and go, material success is relative, and our very lives are a short succession of ebbs and flows. What, then, remains? This eclipse is an invitation to consider our material circumstances in an empathetic way, and to extend this grace towards others.
Our situation can rapidly change, and if anything this lunation is a call to solidarity: how can we help the least fortunate around us? How can we build solidarity, respect and tolerance, knowing that our own situation is fleeting? These are the main themes of this eclipse and the months to come. I recommend you look to the house axis that this eclipse activates in your chart to better understand what will take place.
Aries Rising (Eclipse in your 6H):
This eclipse emphasises topics of health, and may be particularly draining. Make sure to adapt your routine (esp at work) so that you don’t burn out & drive yourself to a point of exhaustion!
Taurus Rising (Eclipse in your 5H):
Taurus, this eclipse encourages you to get out of your comfort zone when it comes to your hobbies & the way you enjoy yourself. You may be feeling “out of it” when it comes to your social life - it’s an opportunity to get back on track!
Gemini Rising (Eclipse in your 4H):
Now is the time to uncover hidden things, and to work on trauma stemming from your family & relationship to your parents. This eclipse offers an opportunity for purging & processing difficult familial things - use it to move on.
Cancer Rising (Eclipse in your 3H):
Your every day life & friend circles are getting shaken up - expect to let go of some bad habits & people in your life! This is an opportunity to shape your life more like you want it to be & to reflect on how you let into your inner circle.
Leo Rising (Eclipse in your 2H):
Leo, you might be spending some money during this eclipse, and face some unexpected spending. Money will come back, and this is a good opportunity to reflect on your relationship to material possessions & what makes you feel “safe”.
Virgo Rising (Eclipse in your 1H):
This is a big one for you, Virgo! Your sense of self & identity are completely changing, and you may turn your attention & change your opinion on your close relationships & the way you relate to others. Good luck!
Libra Rising (Eclipse in your 12H):
This eclipse may feel isolating, and a time where you mostly keep to yourself. Big changes are brewing, but for now it might look like time spent away from the world. Use this time to recharge & face obstacles on your way, one at a time.
Scorpio rising (eclipse in your 11H):
The topic of friends & community is highlighted for you during this eclipse - something needs to give. You need to let go of certain expectations & habits when it comes to your friendships, in order to welcome those who truly support you.
Sagittarius rising (eclipse in your 10th house):
During this eclipse, you are questioning your path & ambitions - are you truly aligned with your purpose & what you are doing with your life? This eclipse clears the space & allows you to envision your career & life path differently.
Capricorn rising (eclipse in your 10th house):
This eclipse asks you to let go of beliefs previously held & of old knowledge systems. You’ll be learning something new, perhaps discovering new places - but first you need to get rid of prejudice & open yourself up to new possibilities.
Aquarius rising (eclipse in your 9th house):
Are you expanding yourself more than you should? Giving away your time, energy & money unconditionally? Now is the time to reevaluate & to let go of limiting beliefs (eg that others won’t love you if you don’t give your everything).
Pisces rising (eclipse in your 8th house):
This eclipse is all about letting go of relationships that no longer align, or less drastically of certain relationship patterns that do not serve you. It’s a good time to reflect on your sense of self & who you are in relation to others!
