Solar & Lunar Eclipses

Cosmic turning points that bring transformation, revelation, and new beginnings. Eclipses accelerate change and illuminate hidden truths.

What Are Eclipses?

Eclipses occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth align in specific ways, creating either a solar eclipse (New Moon) or lunar eclipse (Full Moon). These aren't ordinary lunations, they're supercharged moments of transformation.

Eclipses work in pairs or series, often bringing themes that unfold over 6 months to 2 years. They reveal what's been hidden, accelerate necessary endings, and open doors to new chapters.

Solar Eclipses

Occur at New Moons when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun. Solar eclipses plant seeds for new beginnings, often bringing unexpected opportunities and fresh starts.

  • • New beginnings and initiations
  • • Doors opening unexpectedly
  • • Future-oriented energy
  • • Seeds planted now bloom over 6 months

Lunar Eclipses

Occur at Full Moons when Earth passes between the Sun and Moon. Lunar eclipses bring culminations, revelations, and necessary endings to make space for growth.

  • • Culminations and completions
  • • Hidden truths revealed
  • • Emotional breakthroughs
  • • Releasing what no longer serves
