2nd new moon/solar eclipse in virgo
Virgo Solar Eclipse: Clean Slate, Sharp Pencil ✍️
Partial Solar Eclipse (New Moon) in Virgo — Sunday, Sept 21, 2025 @ 3:54 PM EDT (29°05’ Virgo)
(Quick note: despite the “Full Moon” wording floating around, today’s event is a New Moon / Solar Eclipse.)
Overview
A double-serving of precision hits today and we may all be noting the flaws in others’ thinking now.
Virgo’s back at it with a rare encore—our second Virgo New Moon in a row, and this one arrives at the final degree (29°) a.k.a. cosmic “now or never.” Eclipses reboot the storyline, and this one says: fix the process, not just the mess.
Astro weather highlights:
Opposes Saturn + Neptune (Pisces): reality check meets fog machine. Neptune rules creativity and illusion. Let’s try to commit to what’s provable and verifiable; re-assess what’s dreamy or not founded in strong facts (do a feasibility test first, as best you can.)
Harmonizes with Uranus (Taurus) + Pluto (Aquarius): smart upgrades + deep reform are favored (hello, better systems & cleaner code/life).
Only Solar Eclipse in the Virgo–Pisces series running Sept 2024 → Feb 2027 (the rest are Lunar). Translation: this is the big “start” button for work/health/habits.
Themes: routines, workflows, skill-building, service, actual self-care (sleep, hydration, movement). Watch perfectionism—the Virgo trap.
Timing tips: The Moon is void from 3:54–5:41 PM EDT; launch intentions after 5:41 PM when Luna glides into Libra (and the Sun enters Libra tomorrow). Use the void window to edit, purge, review—not to hit “publish.”
Vibe check: Eclipses magnify one thing and obscure another. You may have to let go of some of the dreams you had held so dear. In order to be most productive, we sometimes have to let go of something that’s not working out. Proceed, but keep humility and a checklist. (Prototype > permanence today.)
Mercury-in-Virgo Eclipse Starter Pack (today’s flavor)
Superpower: Disciplined doing — clean systems, clear standards, compassionate service
Watch-out: Skepticism → cynicism; analysis paralysis; nitpicky feedback with zero follow-through
Power move: Plan → Pilot → Iterate. Put a date on it, a budget to it, and an owner over it.

Void of Course: 3:54–5:41 PM EDT — review, archive, stretch, hydrate.
After 5:41 PM: set intentions, send the well-crafted note, book the training.
Saturn–Neptune opposition mood: If it’s fuzzy, don’t force it. If it’s solid, schedule it.
Uranus/Pluto support: Automate one thing. Delete one thing. Transform one thing.
Quick Transit Cheatsheet
Best for: Editing workflows, launching healthy routines, skill training, service projects, decluttering (digital + physical)
Avoid: Perfection spirals, passive-aggressive “feedback,” doom-scrolling instead of doing
Mantra: “Clean, then commit.” (Bonus: Kind and clear. Both is the flex.)
