The Solar Eclipse in Virgo – A Black Moon


The solar eclipse today is the final eclipse of 2025, opening up opportunities for fresh starts, as the universe unfolds and expands before us whilst bringing in new themes relating to the autumnal equinox. The autumn equinox is the peak part of the astrological solar cycle, that begins with the astrological New Year at the spring equinox, so it will be no surprise to see our lives changing and shifting around this time with lots of emotional activities and things falling in line with the expression of our core identity, as signified by the Sun.



The chart of the solar eclipse is in Virgo, with Venus and South Node in the same sign, firstly promises that there are going to be some huge transformations over the next few weeks that will be personal for us all and of course, many that will spill over into society as proof of collective shifts. Positive changes are set to happen within our relationships effortlessly and with ease, as facilitated by the applying grand trine to Pluto in Aquarius and Uranus in Gemini. We will be able to call upon our strength, mental resilience and ability to transform at a deep level in order to adapt to the changes taking place, the build-up to the majority and culmination of these coming forth at the time of the Full Moon in Aries on the 7th October.

With the kite configuration between the New Moon, Pluto, Uranus, Saturn and Neptune, reflections are being made on morality and boundaries, yet many difficulties are now in the past as lessons are being learned and instead, we move towards a place of deep understanding yet with passions for moving ahead and treading new ground.

Distance in romance is a thing of the past this coming lunar cycle with Venus separating from her square with Uranus and a focussed control on fairness in heated debates may take it’s place. Be sure to have a look at where the planets and configurations are landing and in which houses of your natal chart to see which life areas are being activated for you over the coming few weeks.

Much love and warm blessings, Gem.
