Who's ready for the upcoming Lunar Eclipse in Pisces? I know I'm not... Nah, I'm just teasing you. I actually like this one - though it might be unpredictable in a sense, our feelings could get exaggerated, and we could easily get overwhelmed, but it's time to put an end to a cycle that's been going around for far too long.
Now, if you're ready for one long article, let's see what lunar eclipses actually mean and how they differ from regular Full Moons. Of course, we'll check how they'll play out in your chart based on your rising sign and what we can expect globally.
On September 18th, 2024, we have the lunar eclipse in Pisces—that means the full moon in Pisces is so close to the North node (still in Aries) that it's considered an eclipse, though it's not in the same sign.
It's happening on 25 degrees of Pisces, and if you have planets or points around this degree in Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, or Capricorn, you will feel it the most.
Depending on the aspect, you'll close this cycle with ease or a bit of challenge, but you'll close it anyway—it's no longer serving you.
So, if we look at the chart of this eclipse, we can see it's conjuncting Neptune, sextiling Pluto in Capricorn and Uranus in Taurus, and squaring Jupiter in Gemini. On top of that, we have Mercury in Virgo, opposing Saturn in Pisces. Huh, how can this play out?
Pisces by itself is a dreamy, not logical sign, and we will probably tend to act based on our intuition or a broad vision about some segment of our life or life in general. The significant thing is that this Full Moon in Pisces is conjuncting Neptune, Pisces's ruling planet, but at the same time, squars Jupiter, the traditional Pisces ruler. I wonder whether a struggle will be between old and new vision (individual or collective) - conformistic vs creative and intuitive path.
Neptune can soften everything and wrap it up in a red bow, but on the other hand, it emphasizes emotions (already heightened) and puts everything on a larger scale. Pluto (the transformation guy) and Uranus (the crazy uncle) support it, meaning that everyone (no matter how tough they are) will feel and melt over this Full Moon.
Should I say it's good or bad news that this Lunar Eclipse is squared by Jupiter (hmm - exaggeration level pro), and believe it or not, the only planet that could stop the madness is Saturn - calling out our common seance to stay calm and think twice before we react.
This Lunar Eclipse in Pisces will definitely be great for everyone who is creative or artistic or who is self-aware enough to reach higher soul levels. It's a great time to level up and use the North Node conjunction to get closer to our destined path.
But we all can use this energy to tap into our deepest fears and desires, fix our subconscious, and follow intuition when making decisions (though it's not time for clean cuts).
You might be wondering: why does this Lunar Eclipse feel familiar? Let's take a quick trip down memory lane to the last Solar Eclipse in Pisces, which happened back in February 2017. That solar eclipse marked the beginning of a cycle related to Piscean themes—dreams, healing, sacrifice, spiritual growth, and the topic of the house in your chart where Pisces is (in my case, it's the 8th house - credit, debt, other people's money, intimacy, banks, loans, clients).
Now, with this Lunar Eclipse, we're seeing the closing of that cycle. Think back to what was happening in your life around early 2017. This lunar eclipse is here to help you complete or release whatever was set in motion then. Maybe you started a project, relationship, or healing journey that now needs to be wrapped up. If you've been holding on to something that's no longer aligned with your higher self, this eclipse will make sure you let go—whether you're ready or not.

Globally, this Lunar Eclipse in Pisces could bring a sense of collective overwhelm, as Pisces energy often dissolves boundaries and heightens emotions. We might see an increase in humanitarian efforts, spiritual awakenings, or even mass confusion, especially in areas related to water, health, and mental well-being (Pisces rules these realms).
With the Moon conjunct Neptune, there's a strong likelihood that themes around water—whether it's weather-related events, ocean conservation, or even emotional floods—will be in the spotlight. Neptune's influence may also highlight global issues related to illusions, deceit, or confusion, so it's essential to stay grounded and avoid getting swept away by misinformation.
The Mercury-Saturn opposition suggests that leaders or governments might struggle to communicate clearly or enforce policies effectively, leading to delays or blockages. There may be a collective call to balance idealistic thinking with practical solutions.
