The Lunar Eclipse in Pisces Promises Major, Earth-Shattering Changes to Come

New beginnings are on the horizon.

Eclipse season is upon us, and it’s time to embrace the unknown—starting with the full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 17, 2024 at 10:35 p.m. EDT. This event kicks off a new series of eclipses happening in the Pisces and Virgo sections of your birth chart which lasts until August 2026! (The last time we had a lunar eclipse in Pisces was on September 16, 2016, so it’s been a minute.)

As the final sign of the zodiac, Pisces weaves in the stories and lessons of all the preceding zodiac signs before it. It’s here that we learn acceptance, surrender, and the beauty of the unknown and what lies ahead next. With Jupiter as its ruling planet, themes of benevolence, compassion, beliefs, and spirituality are often intertwined with Pisces’ mythos. One of Pisces’ greatest spiritual lessons is that every life is sacred and deserving of love, care, and nurturing—and together, we are unstoppable.

Lunar eclipses typically bring profound moments of change and awakening.

Lunar eclipses typically bring profound moments of change and awakening. As we remember that we are all interconnected, this is a powerful time to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and to use your voice (Virgo) to stand up for what you believe in (Pisces) and to do so with your whole heart.

Eclipses also typically coincide with an ending of sorts and, as we travel through the last zodiac sign, it is clear that something in our lives has entered its final act. Symbolized by the Two Fish swimming in opposite directions, Pisces knows that both grief and joy can be present at the same time. The Pisces lunar eclipse may both expand your heart and crack it open in the same breath. Change is inevitable and, often, when we surrender to it, the greatest part of our journey can be found around the corner.

When is the full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces?

The full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces takes place on September 17 at 10:35 p.m. EDT. Events surrounding this eclipse will likely link back to whatever unfolded in your life during the last lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 16, 2016.

Note that this particular lunar eclipse is a partial lunar eclipse, meaning that the Earth’s shadow doesn’t totally cover the moon. The moon will appear slightly darker in the sky with a shadow covering some of it (rather than turning the signature blood-red hue of a total lunar eclipse).

What is a lunar eclipse, and what does it mean in astrology?

A lunar eclipse happens when the sun, the Earth, and the moon align in their orbits where the moon passes into the Earth’s shadow. That means the Earth is between the sun and the moon, as it is during any full moon. But because the moon is located on the same horizontal plane as the Earth, it is essentially shaded from the sun by the Earth.

Much like a typical full moon, a full moon that is also a lunar eclipse will usher in a period of transitions, endings, moments of culmination, or release. Such changes tend to feel more dramatic during a lunar eclipse, because lunar eclipses occur when the moon’s path crosses the Earth’s orbit at the invisible points in the sky known as the lunar nodes, which are associated with destiny.

Lunar eclipses are thought to speed up our timelines—we can no longer avoid the things we’ve been putting off. People that enter or exit our life and situations that unfold during eclipse season can often feel karmic, too. (The realm of life where you’re bound to experience these changes during any given lunar eclipse depends on the zodiac sign where the moon is located as the eclipse occurs.)

Due to this unpredictable energy, eclipses are typically ill-advised for manifestation work. Surrendering is a more productive way to align with the energy of a solar or lunar eclipse than attempting to push your fate in a certain direction.

That said, everyone has their own relationship with the sun and the moon, and if you feel called to set intentions under an eclipse, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Listen to your intuition, and trust that an eclipse is a portal to a new path that is meant for you.

What can you expect from the full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces in September 2024?

This year’s lunar eclipse in Pisces is significant because it’s the first eclipse in a new series, bringing fated and destined changes to the Virgo and Pisces houses in your birth chart. Taking place in the third decan of Pisces (where a date falls on the degrees of a zodiac sign), this band of the zodiac is associated with a certain feeling of perfection, and like you finally reached a goal you’ve worked tirelessly toward.

It’s possible that a dream may be realized under this eclipse but also, comes the reality of what is required to continue to maintain this desire in the long-term. Or perhaps a feeling of what you worked so hard toward was someone else’s dream for you, and maybe not as fulfilling as you once thought. You may also experience a significant ending in your life and, through the darkness, some unexpected blessings arrive.

The lunar eclipse is conjunct Neptune, a planet of illusion, compassion, and imagination. As such, this eclipse may stir up feelings of idealism, creativity, and romance—great for nurturing your creative side, but no so great for keeping you grounded in reality. The moon will crash into Juptier in Gemini, which can also amplify your emotions. Think: Big, bold displays of gratitude and affection, or maybe an over-the-top cry.

There’s plenty of tension in the sky during this lunar eclipse, but engaging with what you’ve avoided and allowing yourself to embrace uncertainty may lead you to your happy ending.

Fortunately, the lunar eclipse will form gentle and grounding connections with both Uranus in Taurus and Pluto in Capricorn, inspiring innovation and encouraging you to reclaim your power. Both of these planetary pairings can heighten your intuition and encourage you to consider alternative perspectives. Breakthroughs may be just around the corner.

At the time of the full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces, a reality check in the form of Mercury in Virgo will inch toward a tense opposition. Heavy news or feelings of disappointment may surface. There may also be a need to tap into your more serious and mature side, or perhaps you’re sorting through some of your responsibilities and commitments, or discussing boundaries. Venus, the planet of relationships, will also stare down Chiron, which may invite old relationship wounds and triggers to resurface. Mars, the planet of motivation and frustration, will also form a tense angle to the nodes of fate, pressuring you to make a decision or take action.

There’s plenty of tension in the sky during this lunar eclipse, but engaging with what you’ve avoided and allowing yourself to embrace the uncertainty of the unknown may lead you to your happy ending. It may also help you remember the purpose of life: to love and care for one another, and to enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

To get a clearer picture of how this karmic energy will affect you, read on for your sun, moon, and rising signs. Then, pick up a unique self-care practice to help you move through the March 2024 full moon lunar eclipse in Libra with greater balance.

What will the Pisces full moon lunar eclipse bring for every zodiac sign in September 2024?

An ending is near, Aries. The lunar eclipse activates your 12th house of closure, loss, intuition, and solitude. While endings can be uncomfortable and emotional, you must remember that things leaving your life makes room for new opportunities. Listening to your intuition and engaging in spiritual practices that help connect you with your inner voice under this eclipse can help provide the insight you’ve been seeking. As you’re moving through unfamiliar terrain and processing any endings, you may also need more time for rest. This is also a productive time to let go of patterns, habits, people, and behaviors that you’ve outgrown.

Your full moon self-care practice: Keep a dream journal during eclipse season. Pay attention to similar themes, topics, and symbols that reoccur over the next few weeks. You may receive some advice and clarity when you least expect it.

Taurus

Everything’s coming together, Taurus. The full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces illuminates your 11th house of friendships, allies, community, as well as your hopes and dreams for your future. Maybe you learn hopeful news about one of your goals. Someone with influence who believes in you and your ideas may also step up to help take your dreams to the next level. Your sense of community could also shift in a profound way due to this eclipse. Perhaps you find a new hobby or group of like-minded people to connect with in a way that feels game-changing.

Your full moon self-care practice: Ask someone for help. Whether it’s a person on LinkedIn who works at your dream company or your BFF’s boyfriend who is connected to the right person to further your path, you’re only one degree of separation away from changing your life.

Gemini

You’re saying goodbye to your old life and entering uncharted territory, Gemini! The lunar eclipse moves through your 10th house of accomplishment, career, and reputation. You may leave a job or professional field that no longer feels aligned or healthy for you. New opportunities lie on the other side of this eclipse. You could also receive some major recognition, step into more responsibility at work, or reach a long-term goal you’ve been working toward. Whatever unfolds under these moonbeams, you’re encouraged to reflect on where you are now and how far you’ve come.

Your full moon self-care practice: Spend time thinking about your long-term goals and vision for your future. Which of those still feel authentic and aligned? Rework or release old goals that don’t light you up anymore.

Cancer

The clarity you’ve been waiting for is finally here, Cancer. The lunar eclipse lands in your ninth house of knowledge, wisdom, learning, and perspective. Conversations that take place today feel fated, and what you learn today has the potential to change your perspective and offer alternatives for the next step on your path. Your horizon may expand in some way. If you’ve been learning something new, whether it’s a specific subject or a skill, there may be an opportunity to share your expertise with others.

Your full moon self-care practice: Speak your desires into existence! You’re in the midst of eclipse season and anything can happen. There is also an extra emphasis on your words so consider using daily affirmations to bring some of your dreams to life.

Leo

Investments are on your mind, Leo. The lunar eclipse moves through your eighth house of shared resources, finances, vulnerability, and fears. Fated changes may take place in your personal relationships and who you decide to invest your energy into. You’re more aware of the reciprocity in your connections, and the lack of balance, as well in some relationships. This is also a powerful time to embrace your shadow side, reflect on some of your fears, and release the past.

Your full moon self-care practice: Engage in healing or grounding work that feels aligned. You may notice triggers from your past kick up as you navigate new spaces and vulnerability in your relationships. Proactively working on yourself and regulating your nervous system can help.

Virgo

Should you stay or should you go, Virgo? The lunar eclipse lands in your seventh house of one-on-one relationships and contracts. While some relationships may run their course, new people or networking connections are arriving in divine timing. Romantically, you may choose to take an exciting next step in your relationship, or walk away from connections lacking in a shared vision for their future. New work opportunities may also present themselves. Most importantly, this is a cosmic reminder to assert your needs in your important relationships.

Your full moon self-care practice: Quit the self-sacrificing! Try to consciously step away from this habit and center yourself and your needs. While this may feel uncomfortable, it will weed out the people who are using you versus those who really respect who you are and what you deserve.

Libra

Stop giving yourself such a hard time, Libra. The lunar eclipse illuminates your sixth house of duty, routine, habits, and well-being. You may reach your limit with an obligation or project. It’s okay to ask for help! Your committed effort on a personal or professional responsibility could also finally receive more recognition. You may also feel ready to make a change in your everyday life to set yourself up for success. Whether that’s kicking a vice or integrating healthier habits into your morning routine, you’re ready to put in the daily work to help reach some of your goals.

Your full moon self-care practice: Set the boundary. Whatever conversation you’ve avoided, now may be the time to have it. You deserve to protect some of your personal time, especially when you notice others are starting to take advantage of your kindness and generosity.

Scorpio

You’re feeling sparks of joy and gratitude, Scorpio, as the lunar eclipse travels through your fifth house of pleasure, creativity, romance, and passion. You may learn lucky news today that feels fated, especially as it relates to some of your long-term dreams for the future. This can also mark a turning point for a creative project you’ve been working on, or bring some spicy drama or excitement to your romantic life. A creative idea or solution can also arrive, helping you make progress and feel hopeful about where you’re headed next.

Your full moon self-care practice: Check in with your inner teen. What made them happy? Dress up and do things that would bring them joy. Embodying this version of yourself now can bring healing—and also spark new inspiration.

Sagittarius

A personal matter takes precedence right now, Sagittarius. The lunar eclipse activates your fourth house of home, family, the past, and privacy. For some, this may coincide with the decision to move, re-organize your space, or redefine your physical or emotional sense of comfort and security. You may also experience a big shift within a personal relationship or with a family member. Important news may arrive about what’s unfolding in their lives, or perhaps you wipe the slate clean and bury a grudge. This is also an emotional time to reflect on your past and things that you don’t want to bring into the next chapter of your life.

Your full moon self-care practice: Reflect on some of your limiting beliefs or the ways you sometimes self-sabotage. Which of those patterns and behaviors stem from your upbringing and generational cycles? Pick one to work on, heal, and release.

Capricorn

Big conversations are unfolding, Capricorn! The lunar eclipse travels through your third house of information, communication, learning, rituals, and surroundings. News you learn or share today can feel like a turning point. This is also a powerful day to make progress on writing and speaking projects. You may also make a decision to go back to school, change up your routine and integrate a new hobby, or find a deity or divination practice you want to craft a committed ritual around.

Your full moon self-care practice: It’s time to expand your mind and your horizons! Sign up for a class or check out a book from your local library about a subject of interest. Exposing yourself to new ideas and concepts will feel creatively fulfilling.

Aquarius

You’re tempted to swipe your credit card, Aquarius, as the lunar eclipse activates your second house of finances, resources, and possessions. This eclipse reminds you that life is meant to be lived and experienced, and your money isn’t helping anyone if you squirrel it all away. (Just be mindful about your means and budget, too!) This eclipse can also bring a change to your work and professional field. For some, contracts or jobs may end, forcing them to look elsewhere, while others could accept a raise or promotion. You may also feel inspired to pursue a new calling altogether.

Your full moon self-care practice: This is a fated time to invest in yourself. Whether it’s getting yourself a massage or signing up for an online workshop that interests you, spend a little of your cash on yourself (when possible and within reason, of course).

Pisces

You’re deep in your feelings, Pisces. The lunar eclipse moves through your first house of self, identity, new beginnings, and personal goals. You could learn news today that impacts you on a personal level, or finally feel ready to share something private with the world. You may step into a new role or change the way you self-express through your style, pronouns, or haircut. Take this chance to reinvent yourself, which requires facing any fears or resistance to showing up authentically. A goal or milestone you’ve been working toward may also begin to materialize.

Your full moon self-care practice: Take yourself out on a date. It’s time to do something for you! If there’s a restaurant you want to try or a movie you’ve been meaning to see, carve out time to wine and dine yourself. Spending quality time alone doing the things you love will feel nourishing amidst this sea of change.
