28° Aquarius Solar Eclipse
Revolutionary new beginnings. Collective vision. The future arriving ahead of schedule.
A solar eclipse occurs at a New Moon when the Moon passes between the Earth and Sun, temporarily blocking the Sun's light. In Aquarius, this eclipse opens a portal for radical new beginnings in collective vision, innovation, and the way we relate to community and the future.

13° Virgo Lunar Eclipse
Releasing perfectionism. Completing service-related chapters. Health revelations.
A lunar eclipse occurs at a Full Moon when the Earth passes between the Sun and Moon, casting the Moon in Earth's shadow. In Virgo, this powerful culmination brings the completion of health, work, and service-related chapters — and the release of perfectionism that has been blocking genuine fulfillment.
Ritual focus: Releasing what you've been over-analyzing. Full release of standards that no longer serve growth.

Full Pisces eclipse guide →Universal Eclipse Rules
✦ Eclipse effects last 6 months
While the eclipse itself is a single moment, its effects ripple through the following six months. The seeds planted at a solar eclipse germinate across this entire period.
✦ Don't force it — let it reveal
Eclipses are notorious for bringing the unexpected. The energy works better when you remain open to what arrives rather than trying to control what the eclipse 'gives' you.
✦ Eclipse windows are intense
The 2 weeks surrounding an eclipse (one week before, one after) are particularly potent — emotions intensify, events accelerate, and what needs to change makes itself clear.
✦ Rest on the eclipse itself
Many astrologers advise against setting intentions or doing ritual magic on the eclipse day itself. The energy is too volatile. Integrate before you act.
✦ Look at what sign is eclipsed
The zodiac sign of the eclipse determines which area of life is activated — and which house it falls in your birth chart determines how personally you'll feel it.
✦ Eclipses work in pairs
Solar and lunar eclipses always come in pairs two weeks apart. The solar eclipse opens a new chapter; the lunar eclipse two weeks later reveals, completes, or releases.
