In this episode, we dive into the Pisces lunar eclipse happening on September 17th. I point out how this is marking both an end of a chapter and initiating a new beginning as it's the first of a series of Pisces eclipses happening in the next two years. I then reflect on my own experiences with previous Pisces eclipses to offer insights into how these cycles tend to unfold over time. By looking back at the past, we can get a clearer sense of the broader themes that might emerge during this eclipse. We’ll also explore the interplay between Saturn and Neptune that is key for understanding the nuance of this eclipse.

We’ll start by explaining what an eclipse is from an astronomical standpoint, then dive into how ancient astrologers interpreted these celestial events.
