If you’ve been feeling tender, off-center, or emotionally stirred—you’re not alone.
Tomorrow’s eclipse is here, and it’s not just an astrological event. It’s a Total Lunar Eclipse in Pisces, exact on Saturday, September 7 at 11:30 PM EDT. This is a cosmic portal—an invitation to pause… reflect… and go inward.
Eclipses are designed to obscure—to cloud vision, heighten emotion, and ask you to surrender to what you can’t yet see clearly.
You may feel the urge to figure things out or rush toward clarity—but this is not a time for bold decisions or dramatic action. Most astrologers, myself included, suggest rest, softness, and internal recalibration during eclipse season. Why?
Because eclipses are an invitation to be in the dark.
They stir up what’s been hidden beneath the surface: unresolved emotions, old stories, karmic patterns. It can feel disorienting—but it’s also sacred. You don’t need to rush clarity. You’re allowed to slow down.
Jupiter’s Blessing: A Deeper Invitation to Trust
This eclipse is occurring in Pisces, a sign of surrender, dreamtime, and the soul’s imagination. And its traditional ruler, Jupiter, is currently in Cancer—a sign associated with emotional safety, belonging, and nourishment.
This alignment expands your ability to:
-
Feel what’s truly underneath the surface
-
Rest instead of react
-
Reclaim emotional space from overwhelm or external noise
Even if things feel foggy or uncertain, you are still being held.
✨ Eclipse Reflection Practice: Being in the Dark (and Trusting It)
This is not a time to figure everything out.
It’s a time to feel.
Step 1: Grounding First
Find a quiet space.
Close your eyes and take 5 deep belly breaths.
Let your shoulders drop. Exhale with a sigh.
🌀 Mantra:
“Even in the dark… I am held.”
Step 2: Gentle Journaling Prompts
Write from the heart, not the head:
-
What emotions or themes have surfaced recently that surprised me?
-
Where am I trying to “push forward” when I actually need to pause?
-
What do I need more of right now—rest, quiet, permission, compassion?
-
What can I release control over—just for today?
-
What feels true in my body, even if I can’t explain it?
Step 3: “Womb Space” Visualization
Imagine yourself in a warm, safe, dark space—like a womb or a sacred cave.
You are held. Supported. Protected.
In this darkness, there is no pressure. Only peace.
What do you feel?
What whispers do you hear from your soul?
Sit with it for 5–10 minutes. Then write anything that came.
Final Reflection
You don’t need to rush.
You don’t need to know the answer today.
Let yourself float in the mystery for now.
-
You’re allowed to be in the dark.
-
You’re allowed to wait and see.
-
You’re allowed to trust your own timing.
Sending you rest and reverence.
Warmly,
Yumin Tan
