On September 7th, 2025, we’ll experience a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces, and this Lunar Eclipse is the second Pisces Lunar Eclipse for this set! We had a Pisces Lunar Eclipse last year (September 17th, 2024), and have one more next year (August 28th, 2026), so we’re in the middle with this impact now.
Eclipses occur in sets of opposing zodiac signs for a period of time, and we’re in Pisces and Virgo now (the September 21st, 2025 Solar Eclipse is in Virgo). The Pisces-Virgo eclipse set will last until February 2027.
Lunar Eclipses occur with Full Moons, which occur when the transit (moving) Sun and Moon are in exact opposite positions in the zodiac. This greatly amplifies our emotions, and brings culminations.
Lunar Eclipses are supercharged Full Moons, occurring about every 6 months, and their impact can last. They can trigger major changes in our lives and in the world, and this can impact us on a personal, emotional level.
Since Lunar Eclipses tie to culminations, we can see rewards for what we’ve done right and been working on for some time, and may reach new heights. But if we haven’t done things right, it can be a challenging period.
The Lunar Eclipse in Pisces is HUGE for Karmic Releasing & Developments
Pisces is the very last sign in the zodiac, and because of that, it connects with endings. It’s the end of the zodiac’s cycle, and couple that with Lunar Eclipses connecting to endings, and Pisces Lunar Eclipses tend to be big for endings.
This is extra true for this eclipse thanks to Saturn having just gone back to PIsces on September 1st, 2025, so just 6 days before this eclipse. Saturn is dubbed the Lord of Karma, so karmic energy is supercharged for this Lunar Eclipse.
This means this eclipse is big for connecting to our souls, our inner selves, our subconscious, and gaining new understanding so we can release and move on. This is a huge period for releasing, and that can be the most important thing to do with this eclipse. Release!
Saturn is also anaretic in Pisces for this eclipse. There are 30 degrees in every zodiac sign, and 29 degrees is the last degree. This is called the anaretic degree, and it supercharges energy. Saturn is anaretic in Pisces September 1st – 14th, 2025.
Transit planets at the anaretic degree push for action, and we can feel extra motivated to take charge. With Saturn in Pisces, we’re likely being pushed to take action to deal with the karma, the baggage, and the lessons we haven’t learned yet.
This might come in the form of punishment for some since Saturn is the taskmaster and disciplinarian. Saturn gets frustrated when we don’t learn, don’t do things the right way, or we’re not doing things for the right reasons, and punishes us for this.
It’s not for nothing, though—Saturn is trying to get our attention! Saturn knows that humans are stubborn and won’t do what we have to unless we’re forced to sometimes. This can be one of those times.
Anything that goes wrong at this point is likely the doing of Saturn, and you weren’t doing things right in some way. This can be frustrating, but try to look at the situation realistically and be honest with yourself about what you weren’t doing correctly.
At the same time, many may see the reverse happening, and there can be a surge in karmic developments, progress, or even success with this eclipse. These developments can feel destined, though the reality is they’re happening because you learned the lessons, were willing to let go, understood the past, and had good motivations.
They may have been predestined, but with the caveat that you do the work leading up to this moment. Some things happen no matter what you do, but this is something that was only possible by showing you earned it.
Rest & Reset With the Pisces Lunar Eclipse
The day before the Pisces Lunar Eclipse, Uranus turns retrograde on September 6th, 2025. A body is retrograde when it appears to be moving backward through the zodiac, and Uranus retrograde is a time to slow down change and adjust.
Combined with this Pisces Lunar Eclipse, and we might be more emotional than usual about changes slowing down. Frustration can come out easily, and we have to take care of our emotional needs.
Pisces Lunar Eclipses tend to require us to get extra rest, and this can be a draining period, especially with Uranus retrograde starting so close. But we need to make sure we are resting and recharging with anaretic Saturn, otherwise this can create problems.
Luckily, we have happy Jupiter in Cancer making a trine, which is a beneficial aspect to this Pisces Lunar Eclipse, so we do have an easier time doing things right and keeping an eye on the big picture so we’re not too sucked into the emotional depths of this eclipse.
One thing to keep in mind with this eclipse is intuition is going to be suuuper strong! Pisces is the sign of intuition, retrogrades stir up intuitive energy, and anaretic Saturn is revving intuition up.
Pay close attention to any and all intuitive messages you receive. Keep track of your dreams, make note of synchronicities, and try intuitive exercises to build your connection.
