216 The Eclipse Obsession: How Darkness Deceives the Modern Woman

Lori Latimer Episode 216

Have you noticed how the world treats eclipses like sacred portals? Women gather for retreats, astrologers hype them as “gateways,” and social media fills up with rituals tied to the moon and stars.

I used to live for that. I planned my life around eclipses, believing they held power over my destiny. But something shifted. When I surrendered to God, He opened my eyes to the truth: eclipses are not spiritual portals — they are signs of His sovereignty. 

In this episode of The Illuminated Woman Podcast, I share my journey from eclipse obsession to true freedom in Christ. We’ll open Scripture together and see how the Bible talks about eclipses — not as gateways for transformation, but as reminders of God’s judgment, power, and glory. And we’ll explore why so many women are drawn to these cosmic events, and how we can guard our hearts against the deception of worshiping creation instead of the Creator.

✨ What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Why women are tempted to idolize eclipses and other cosmic signs
  • How New Age and wellness culture use eclipses as “empowerment rituals”
  • What the Bible really says about eclipses
  • The difference between chasing signs in the sky vs. trusting the God of heaven
  • How to stop chasing shadows and start chasing the true Light

If you’ve ever felt drawn to eclipse rituals or pressured to “harness the power of the moon,” this episode will help you see clearly how darkness deceives — and how the Light of Christ sets you free.
