Hi, how are you? I hope you're well. I might sound a little raspy. I definitely do. It's 'cause I had a late night. I went to a party, it was a costume party, and while I was there, sat as a forest-dwelling mushroom, I was just thinking like, "Oh, I love this. This is such a great end to Leo season." Costume party, you know, party, celebration, fun. I laughed so much. I was surrounded by such hilarious, awesome, expressive people. And I left at 12:30, and I'm very... I'm not used to that. But it was great, and I'm recording this now on the Sunday, and it's the last day of Leo. Tomorrow is Monday, and the beginning of Virgo. What I want to speak about today is Friday's partial lunar eclipse in Pisces. So we enter Virgo on Monday, and I'm interested in this. Mercury will also be there. We've just had the South Node really, like, purge through Virgo for the last 18 months. So it was January 2025 until July 2026. So for that 18-month period, the South Node, the less conscious expressions of Virgo, were really being brought to the surface. So any of you who have planets in Virgo, um, will really have... And even if you don't, like, the house or the houses that this, uh, occupies, that this sign occupies, you will have really, uh, been able to feel or sense and observe more and more if there was anywhere where you were being overly busy, um, stressy, uh- unproductive, but doing these sort of surface level things that felt like productivity, but you were never actually getting into the meat and veg of the topic, of, of the thing at hand. Um, I know for myself, 'cause I've got my moon here, uh, I really prioritized body work during this time, and things like massage. And when I started going to Beck, uh, my very amazing massage therapist, I said to her, like, "I just feel like there's a lot of ancient stress in this body." And she's like, "I know what to do with ancient stress." So I just felt like, you know, this is a, this is an earth sign. It's related to our, our physical world and our physical body. And so for me, I was really priorit- prioritizing moving stress, moving tension, moving, um, knots, uh releasing those things physically, as well as doing more of the internal work Uh, I certainly really became awa- aware of where I was in analysis paralysis, uh, perfectionism, all of these very, like, less mature expressions of Virgo. So the reason that I want to bring this up is that the It's only been It's almost been a month since we moved out of the South Node here, and the final degree it was at was at zero degrees, so it moves backwards, the nodes, just to confuse you. Everything else moves from zero to 29 degrees, but the nodes move backwards. So, um, the mo- the, the nodes go from 29 down to zero. So for this first week of Virgo, with the sun here, we're bringing to life, we're animating territory that we have just spent the last several months scouring through. And, uh, purifying, refining. Refining, this concept refinement is very much a Virgo experience. Uh, I was saying to um, The Astrology School legends in our Telegram group, on Saturday, I Yesterday, I drove to the, the city to get my hair done. And parked in the car park, but saw there was a car wash there, so got got the car washed, got my hair done, and was answering, um, and looking at all the amazing, like, questions and comments and realizations in The Astrology School, um, chat. So it just felt That to me was, like, Virgo heaven, like, for my moon. I felt like I was utilizing time so beautifully. Like, I was in this really clean, uh, organized, uh, well-spent application of time. If you have Virgo placements, you're gonna know what I'm talking about. If you don't, I'm gonna sound really neurotic and anal. And yeah, I can also be those things, and that's when I know my moon is out of whack, you know? If I'm finding myself being really neurotic, it's a great tell for me. So what I really want us What, what, what I really want you to just be aware of this week as we move into Friday's eclipse is Virgo is the vessel, the vessel of the body. Uh, the boundary of your skin, like your actual person. It's a, it's a- a beautiful natural awareness and desire to refine the way that you live, the space that you live amongst. This really is the territory of clean space, clean mind. Um Oh, what was I gonna say there? It's also this But it, it's, it's an energy that is practical and is aware of the daily routines, and rituals, and habits that really make us feel grounded, um, in our own bodies. Um, discerning. You know, it's very difficult to be discerning if you are just in your head or off with the pixies, so to speak. If you're not grounded in your own body in present time, which again, I, I always relate to being Virgo magic, then, um, you're not really going to be able to land any of your own intel. And we really want to be within the vessel of the self. We really want to be in this grounded, uh, discerning clear, clean, uh, ex- e- experience of self for the eclipse on, on Friday. Now, it's a partial lunar eclipse. I want to explain to you what that means. So we have the eclipses when the sun or the moon is close. Um, like the new moon, it's the sun-moon conjunction with the nodes. And the full moon, it's a sun-moon opposition that is also conjunct the, the north and the south node. And why this is partial is because the moon will be at four degrees of Pisces, the sun will be at four degrees of Virgo, and then the south node will be at twenty-nine degrees of Leo, and the north node will be at twenty-nine degrees of Aquarius. So they're five degrees away from each other, which means you will see, for, for those of you who it's visible for, um, here it will be at two eighteen PM on Friday in Australian Eastern Standard Time, so we won't be able to see it. But for you in the north, um, you will be able to see that it, that, um, Earth partially eclipses, um, the spotlight of the sun onto the moon. But it's not a full eclipse. Now, the reason why it's What makes it interesting is they're not in the same sign. So if this was, um, if this, if the north node and the moon were in the same archetype, and then the sun and the south node were in the same archetype, this would be a very, very, very, very strong, uh, full moon and, uh, eclipse. But they're in different territories. They're, they're being expressed through different archetypes, through different signs, and that really makes a difference. Uh, again, what, the way that I am perceiving this, and you know, if you Like, different astrologers would have different takes on this. But for me, what I'm finding interesting is we had, just like I was saying, we had the south node in Virgo for the last 18 months. We had the north node in Pisces for the last 18 months, which was really, to me, bringing forward a whole new level of imagination, vision, possibility, creativity, symbolism, like your own symbolism, um, myth. I always, to me, I always relate myth to both Sagittarius and Pisces. Um, and so what I find interesting here is this is, you know, Pisces is your, the imaginarium. You know, if you think about clairvoyance, it arrives through the territory of your imagination. Those visuals for most of you arrive through the territory of your own imagination. You see it in your inner eye. For some people, uh, they might see that in their physical environment. Um But for most of us, it's like our inner eye. And so it's when we're in states of dream, daydream, night dream, where Pisces can really reveal a lot of presentience about things. Um A lot of, a lot of material that, that relates to you, like things that you need to see or feel or sense, 'cause it's also so high in clairsentience as well. This is a, a boundaryless state, and with the moon here, uh, it's wide open. It's like collective feeling, which is why the vessel of Virgo, your body, your health, your routines, your groundedness, your specific use of discernment is so important. Um, this is conduit energy, but it, it's like in order for you to really receive any messages that are here, uh, then you need to be in your body to receive them is the simplest way of saying this. And certainly, like we have the last call for Moon Oracle on Friday with that full moon, and we will be doing, um, a lot of work around dream. Um, but I don't want to give anything away. But I'm, I'm... It's ve- it's gonna be so fun. It's so excited- exciting. Again, it's like this really experiential experience of, of what a Pisces moon can be, um, with its opposite there in Virgo. So yeah, that's... So again, it's, it's a different, it's a different experience to the solar eclipse that we had in Leo because that was sun, moon, south node all conjunct each other, all in the same archetype, whereas here the nodes are in Leo and Aquarius, and the sun and moon are in Virgo and, um, and Pisces. So yeah, it, it's going to... It will be strong because, again, the earth will be there. It will be, um, running interference, um, and, and bringing the shadow, uh, onto the moon, so it's absolutely going to be strong. But it's, um, it's a, it's got a, a diff- It's... There's something that diffuses it because the archetypes are in different territories. What I find interesting about this is the sun and Mercury will be conjunct in Virgo, which is very analytical can be really in the realm of logic, uh, can really be in the realm of I need the evidence. Like provide me with the evidence in a very kind of earthy way. Whereas the moon is delivering intel that is feeling based, that is ephemeral, or that is arriving through your imagination. Um, and so again, it's like the more you're able to be open But present and tapped in. I don't know. I guess what I'm trying to say is, like, you don't want to, um, you know, be like, "Okay, cool," like give, "Send me the intel." Like, what, what do I need to, um... Or, "I've been thinking about X, Y, Z, please send this to me in, um, my dreams," or, "Send me the information in blah, blah, blah, blah way." We don't want to be over-analyzing and then making this an analytical process or an analytical experience. Um, and the thing that I find intriguing about the chart for this is, uh, the sun and moon are at four degrees. We have, we have all those, like, outer planets, Pluto in Aquarius, Neptune in Aries, Uranus in, uh, Gemini, and then even... What degree is Saturn at? Saturn in Aries and Jupiter in Leo at they're actually all sextiling and trining one another. So we're still in this wonderful feeling of forward momentum that we've really been in since July when everything click- like, when so much clicked into air and fire. And I'm sure a lot of you can feel it now. I've certainly been feeling it, especially for all of Leo season. Like, there's this sense of like, it, it is go time. There is momentum. There is a feeling of forward motion. Um, so there's that at play. But then this sun and moon are, uh, back in water and earth, so it's a very different temperature or, or tone to a l- a lot of everything else that's going on in the chart, um, in the sky. And Uranus, which is in Gemini, is forming a T-square with the sun and the moon and Mercury, which is interesting because, um, you know, Mercury rules Virgo, but also rules Gemini. We have the north node in Aquarius. Uranus rules that. And to me it's like, with Uranus here and with the north node in Aquarius, we're really opening up to... And I know a lot of people are feeling this and getting a lot of intel around this. What is the future? What is possible here on this planet? What is the future of humanity? Um, what are, what are- The systems that still feel alive, what are the systems that feel very stale? What are the systems that feel like an absolute chokehold and really need to be, um, pioneered? Like, we're in a real time of the pioneer, and ideas that are right out there on the frontier. And some of those ideas are going to be absolutely beautiful, and some of those ideas are gonna be absolutely turd-like. Um, you know, and, and, and still really about self-interest or, um, just really, really continuing to grow that distance between, um, people. Anyway, side note. So what I find interesting here is, like, a lot of the intel at the moment is these flashes of insight. It is a lot of claircognizance. It is a lot of these downloads and visions, like lightning bolts of possibility. And then here with the Virgo energy, again, with the sun-Mercury conjunction squaring Uranus in, in very, very fluid, fast, open Gemini, there could be this sense of, um, analyzing your way out of these flashes of insight or, "Oh, that's not pragmatic," or, "How is that even possible?" Or, "Is that even practical?" The way that they go together is, "Ooh, how could I land that into 3D reality? How could I gra- ground that, that, that intel, that flash of possibility, and land that as a, as a way forward, as a-" As a reality. So yeah, there, there's, there's two very distinct different energies. The dominant one is this fast, um, air and fire. But then for this partial lunar eclipse, we have Virgo and Pisces. And again, we've just done a lot of work in both of these archetypes, opening ourselves up to being held by something larger than the self, which is what the North Node in Pisces was a- was bringing to us. And, you know, for me, again, something that I talked about a lot was on a, on a more physical level, that, you know, for me is like floating on top of an ocean pool, like being held by a body of water. Um, or lying in a hammock, being suspended in the air and held by something, cocooned by something. Um, it doesn't necessarily have to be the being held by the cosmos, though Pisces is absolutely the embryonic fluid of the cosmos. You know, it's this thing that, that I don't know. It's like it's life with a capital L Uh, it's also endless possibility. Whereas what we were just releasing with Virgo is where we've been white-knuckling, and trying to control, and, um, do everything ourselves. And my worth and my value, um, comes from meeting these really hardcore expectations that I'm putting on myself, or that I've imbibed, um, through my social conditioning. So really, yeah, I- it just feels like we're, we're able to lay new ground here. Because again, the sun is just entering Virgo. We're animating this archetype now. And I mean, it, it Really since I've been running the Moon Oracle course for the last month, and, and partaking in it, um, a part of how that's really working with me Again, I have a Virgo moon, so I'm nourishing that Virgo moon. 'Cause as you'll have heard me talk about, whether you're in the course or not, if you, if you really learn about your own moon sign and house, then you learn how to practically nourish yourself. You are at the same time nourishing your relationship to your intuitive self. And it just I, I have been talking for years, and will continue to, the development of your own intuitive intelligence, the, the amplification of it, the building of that relationship, um, that you have with this incredible subtle intelligence of your own Is paramount, as is your relationship to discernment. And so you really get to practice both, um, especially the discernment piece while we're in Virgo. But being open to your own intuitive intel with this full moon in Pisces is a great opportunity to play with that, too. Uh, but what I wanted to say is, yeah, while I've been in partaking in Moon Oracle, I, I'm just... I, I've been saying here, I think on the podcast, I've been clearing space, the space that I live within on a whole new level. Um, and it reminds me of a time that I lived quite m- monastically, and I, and I lived by a, a set of rules that were framed on the wall in, in the place that I lived. And there were a lot of rules around cleanliness, like re- like really quite extreme but awesome. There were a lot of rules around diet or, or food and what you were able to eat and what you couldn't eat. Uh, but in a, in a way that really, really amplified my relationship to my environment in a much more heightened, subtle way. And I'm finding that now through being in Moon Oracle. Like, there are spaces in my house that I've been very comfortable with, that now I've had to really, um, clean and bring clarity to and remove, you know, all of the, um all of the UK House Garden issues and Vogue Living Australia issues that just pile up. And so I've been doing all of that work, and it's interesting. It's like the standard that I am- Ah. Holding myself to, or the standard that I, um, a- am, um... I'm not sure what the right word is, living from, has just increased. It's, it's like it's leveled up. And, you know, I bought one of those beautiful Zazen water filters, um, that I've always wanted. I bought a filter for my shower. Um, all these different things, like, just in the last week, again, with that momentum, it was like, "Do this, do this, do this." And the reason I'm telling you this is not so much to tell you about my life, but to just say this is Vi- this is Virgo stuff. This is Virgo land. And where the, you know, the seasons have just... The, The Magic Far Away Tree Leo season, if you've ever read those books by Enid Blyton, um, Leo season has rolled up the carpet, and it's started to shift around. And now, if you go climb to the top of the tree, or when you wake up tomorrow, when you listen to this, we'll be in Virgo season. It's a whole new world. It's earthy. It's mutable. It's very mercurial. It's grounded. And it's a lot to do with refinement, refining the process, ref- refining the ways that you live. Um, so yeah, this is where we are right now. Anything else I want to mention? I just wrote some notes down. I think that's it. Yeah, so in, in astrology school, for the last three weeks, uh, I've been teaching everyone about transits and progressions. Transits is the sky now. And there is this incredible, like- It's a, to me, it's like this individual curriculum that is also a collective curriculum, uh, that we all go through. Transits that happen at very specific ages. You'll all know about the first Saturn return, for example. There's these very specific sets or a, a very specific set of transits that occur at, at uniquely specific ages. And so I was walking everyone through that in class on Thursday and Saturday last night. And I just want to bring to your attention in case you haven't, um If you are between the ages of 37 and 44, and you haven't watched my workshop on, um, I called it Wild Blooming, and it, it, it, it's these set of four very, very powerful midlife transits that happen between the ages of 37 and 44. If you're in that age group, and you haven't If you don't know about those, please, um, learn about them. Like please watch the, the workshop. They're four transits, the nodal return, uh, Pluto square Pluto, uh, Neptune square Neptune, Uranus opposition They're incredible. I've I, I just finished them in April. Um, I'm 45 now, and they are beautiful, powerful, um, altering, um And yeah, just b- having talked about them again this week, I just really want to make you aware of them. We're all quite aware, I'm sure you all are if you're listening to this, about things like the Saturn return. But this chunk right here between 37 and 44, it's effing mega. And I really think, like, when you have the awareness of these experiences and what they're, what they're bringing to the foreground, like what they're teaching, then you can really utilize that experience. Um, and rather than it feeling like, "God, life's, life's hectic," or "Life's I really feel like I'm in it right now." Um, and it was great to just get to speak to the women in, in both of the sessions this week who were in these experiences or have just passed through them, and to hear their feedback. It was amazing. It, it's a time where things are really playing out in your life. Um, so yeah, I'm gonna put that below. I highly recommend. Um, but yeah, it's the full moon partial lunar eclipse this Friday. And play with it, you know. Be grounded, be in your own body, and really be aware of or leave a lot of room for you to be in states of inspiration. That to me is very much inspiration, the sublime. They're Piscean experiences. It's, it's like this poetic experience of life, um, this more ephemeral experience of life. Um, and, and it's also your imagination and your dream world, your own symbolism, your own mythology in a way. So yeah, we, we w- we likely really will feel the build-up of this, um, especially in the day before, Thursday, when it, when the moon goes over the north node in Aquarius. But yeah, I hope you have a great week, and I'll see you next week
