Uranus Retrograde and Eclipse Season Commences with a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces

 

September is here and we are in for one wild ride this month.  It began with Saturn moving back into Pisces on September 1 until mid-February 2026.  Saturn in Pisces is all about spiritual surrender and dissolving the structures that no longer are viable in our lives.  And our first eclipse this month on September 7 is in 15 degrees of Pisces.  This eclipse will be a repeat of the Lunar Eclipse we had on September 7, 2006. The world is a very different place from 2006, but if you are old enough to remember it, you might be facing some similar issues.

Right before that total Lunar Eclipse, Uranus stations retrograde in 1 degree of Gemini on September 6.  Uranus will stay in Gemini until November 7 when it moves back into Taurus to handle its unfinished business.  Then it re-enters Gemini on April 25, 2026 until 2033.  We are going to be experiencing strong Uranian energy for at least the first ten days of September.  This means we could see earthquakes, cyberattacks, aviation disasters and shocking awakenings.  The news will not be dull now.

This year is an incredibly intense portal between the past and the future.  It is quite rare to have Saturn, Uranus and then later Neptune dipping from Aries and Gemini back into Pisces and Taurus.  So I am not kidding when I say there is unfinished business to deal with.

The total Lunar Eclipse on September 7 is in 15 degrees of Pisces.  If you have any personal planets or points (like your Nodes of the Moon, Midheaven, Descendant or Ascendant) in the mid degrees of the mutable signs of Pisces, Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius, you cannot escape the intensity of this eclipse.  I have my Moon in 14 degrees of Gemini in my 8th house, so I am once again in the line of fire. This is a North Node eclipse, so we are obtaining some closure towards the future.  There will be endings and new beginnings.  Hopefully, with a Lunar Eclipse in the sensitive water sign of Pisces, we can see it as the end of victimhood.  The endings can be purposeful, but we need to be mindful of the inclination towards self-pitying and a feeling of martyrdom.  Pisces has an affiliation with its victimhood role, so try to step away from the concept that it's happening to me and perceive it as something happening for me. The Sun in Virgo is conjunct the South Node of the Moon in Virgo, which is motivated to be perfect and get things right.  

A Lunar Eclipse in Pisces has strong themes of surrender and release.  There is no doubt that we all are going to need to give up something to get to the future. We need to release what is no longer working for us, no matter how painful that is.  The bottom line is that we are all on a collective level grieving what is the past and we need to move forward despite the fact that we are still unsure how to do that. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac; it is extremely emotional and sentimental.  We have already had a taste of Saturn and Neptune in Aries (the first cardinal fire sign of the zodiac) and Neptune will move back into Pisces on October 22 until January 26, 2026.  My sense is that the decade of the 2020's will officially launch in 2026 because we are still in the processing of releasing the past.  Yes, we are all dealing with themes of loss and grieving a way of life that is no longer viable. On an astrological level, this started in January 2020 with the Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn that launched the pandemic.  I am sure that many people will agree that life has not been the same since COVID.

We do have some bright spots on the day of the eclipse.  Mars in Libra is squaring Jupiter in 19 degrees of Cancer, which can see many of us fighting for justice.  Jupiter is on my Midheaven then, which is leading to my Jupiter Return.  But this eclipse is also trining Jupiter in Cancer, which gives us hope and faith that something good will come of this...  Do not count out Jupiter's role in this eclipse.  After all, Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, and I am eternally grateful for having this natal placement.

The coronavirus outbreak caused me to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people were concerned about the spread of the infection. I have decided to suspend my in-person Reiki sessions until further notice, so all of my Reiki sessions will be distant Reiki sessions for the foreseeable future. But a distant Reiki session is the perfect opportunity to safely build up your immune system and if you have contracted coronavirus, you can be treated safely from the comfort of your home. My procedure is to have a conversation with a client about what they hope to achieve from a session, we set up a time for the session to take place when they will be in a state to receive healing energy and I follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss their experience and my perception of their blockages. I do miss seeing my clients, so I am now offering Zoom consultations/intakes before the session so that we can see each other. I have also incorporated a new technique with my distance Reiki treatments since I don’t always have a photo of my client.  I use a teddy bear so that I can scan and focus the healing energy where it is needed. If this appeals to you, please feel free to contact me by email at lindasim54@gmail.com or call me at 617-304-2205. The cost for distance Reiki sessions is based on a sliding scale of $30 -$50. For your convenience, I accept Venmo and Zelle for payment. Zelle payments can be sent using my telephone number 617-304-2205. I have also written an article about distance Reiki, which is available at:
