Virgo season is one day old.
The Sun crossed into Virgo on Sunday 23 August, and the sky’s mood has shifted from Leo’s fire to Virgo’s quiet tending.
On Wednesday 26 August, Mercury comes home to Virgo, its own sign, and the collective mind gets clear and practical.
Then Friday 28 August brings the big one.
At 12:13 in the afternoon, Perth time, the Full Moon arrives at 5 degrees of Pisces, and it is a partial lunar eclipse. It happens in our daytime, so we will not see it from Perth, and we do not need to.
This is the answering eclipse to the total solar eclipse of 13 August. That one opened a door. This one closes the room behind you.
A solar eclipse plants, a lunar eclipse releases, and together they bracket a fortnight of genuine change.
August’s Universal Month 9 is in its final week, so the numbers are clearing the decks too. And the clever Fire Monkey month is playing its last stretch.
The theme for everyone: tend the new with Virgo hands, and let the eclipse take what is finished.
Read for your Sun sign, and your rising sign if you know it.
Aries
Friday’s eclipse Full Moon lands in your quietest house, the place of rest, dreams and the past, so what leaves this week may leave silently, an old worry, a habit of mind, a weight you are done carrying. Virgo season keeps your daily work steady while it goes.
Taurus
The eclipse moon falls in your house of friends and community, and a chapter in your wider circle reaches its natural end, honour what it gave you. Truer connections have room once it goes.
Gemini
Friday’s release lands at the top of your chart, in career and public life, and something about the path you show the world completes itself. With Virgo season lighting your home corner, let family and hearth steady you.
Cancer
The eclipse moon falls in your house of horizons, and an old belief about what is possible for you is ready to be released. Let the bigger view in, your world is wider than the old map.
Leo
Friday’s Full Moon lands in your house of depth and shared resources, the companion house to this month’s eclipse in your own sign, so a bond, a debt or an entanglement finds its release point. Let it settle gently, this is the closing of your own eclipse story.
Virgo
The eclipse moon lands opposite you, in your partnership house, and a one to one relationship completes a long cycle, some bonds deepen at this point and some conclude with grace. Your season and your own clear mind will show you which, kindly.
Libra
Friday’s release arrives in your house of work and health, and a routine, a role or a habit that has quietly run its course asks to be set down. Virgo season’s advice: simplify before you add.
Scorpio
The eclipse moon lands in your house of creativity, romance and joy, and something your heart has outgrown, an old dream, an old version of play, makes way for what actually lights you up now. Release it with thanks.
Sagittarius
Friday’s Full Moon falls at the base of your chart, in home and family, and an old domestic pattern or family story reaches its release point. Clear the foundations, the rest of the house stands easier.
Capricorn
The eclipse moon lands in your house of words, and a conversation, a story you tell, or an old way of thinking completes itself this week. Say the closing words and mean them.
Aquarius
Friday’s release is about money and worth, and an old fear or habit around what you are worth is ready to go. Let Virgo season rebuild the practical plan on cleaner ground.
Pisces
The eclipse moon arrives in your own sign, so this release is personal, an old identity, an old story about who you are, finishes its chapter in you. Be soft with yourself on Friday, and let it go with grace.
Whatever your sign, remember the eclipse rule we used all August.
Respect, never fear.
An eclipse only ever asks for what is already finished.
What feels ready to be released before spring arrives?
