A total lunar eclipse, also known as a Blood Moon, will be happening in the sign of Pisces, on 8th September, 2:08am, at 15 degrees, 22 minutes.
This is especially important for the mutable signs, Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces. Or if you have placements in those signs between 12 to 18 degrees. This is also beneficial for the water signs, Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. Or if you have placements in those signs at 12 to 18 degrees.
Take note that the nodal axis is at 18 degrees of Pisces (North Node) and 18 degrees of Virgo (South Node). So if you have any placements in the above mentioned signs at 15 to 21 degrees, this will also be extremely important.
It’s also important to think about what you started back in late February 2025, especially topics related to the house Pisces rules over in your own natal chart. You’re now culminating whatever you have started then, slowly releasing it in preparation for a new cycle. If you know your rising sign, here’s a quick summary of what area of your life was affected and what will start culminating.

What is a lunar eclipse?
In astrological terms, a lunar eclipse is when a full moon occurs on or near the nodal axis. On a simpler note, it’s when Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon. This makes the Sun cast Earth’s shadow onto the moon.
What is a Blood Moon?
A Blood Moon occurs during a total lunar eclipse, when the moon turns visibly red. This is because the longer wavelengths of the Sun, red and orange, are able to reach the Moon while the shorter wavelengths, blue and violet, get dispersed.
While there was also a Blood Moon (total lunar eclipse) that happened back in March 2025 in the sign of Virgo, the good news now is that those in Asia and Western Australia will be able to experience this ‘Blood Moon’, seeing a red/orange tinge to the moon due to their geographical location. So for those in Singapore, make sure to be up from 1am to 3am on September 8th to witness it for yourself.
Pisces Energy
Mutable Water. Goes with the flow. Double-bodied. Represented by two fishes swimming in opposite directions. Intuitive and emotionally driven. Social and but also has a tendency to accept everything that comes their way even if it’s at a disadvantage to them. Can be indecisive.
Pisces Moon
Extremely intuitive, probably the most intuitive out of all the water signs. Has a knack for holistic healing of any sort. While water moons are generally the ‘healers’ of the zodiac, pisces moons bring it to a different level, especially since they are being ruled by Jupiter, the greater benefic. They are extremely emotional and act according to their emotions. They are also very ‘mouldable’, shaping themselves into whatever they set their mind to.
Full Moon in Pisces (Total Lunar Eclipse, aka Blood Moon)
Total lunar eclipse, the blood moon, is more energetic and intense than just a full moon. To really complete and close off a cycle, letting go of the old so that the new can come in.
An illumination of our connection to one another, allowing for a more understanding nature. To be aware of where we have steered too far off and attempt to make amends or get back on to the flow of things, towards our higher self. Getting in touch with what it means to be human and to enjoy the process. To not control things around us too much.
Current Aspects and Transits
1. Ruler of Pisces, Neptune’s current transit
The modern ruler of Pisces, Neptune is currently retrograde in Aries, moving into the sign of Pisces on 23 October 2025, up till 27 January 2026. The traditional ruler of Pisces, Jupiter is currently exalted in Cancer and will stay in Cancer until 29 June 2026.
What this means is that the house of Pisces, its traditional and modern ruler will be very well placed during these periods. As much as we’d like to control things around us, it’s a period where we’re pushed to surrender control and let things be, and flow in the midst of it all so that we can be faced with true alignment towards our desired path in this life. This may require certain changes to occur that may not necessarily be very logical or within our control. But deep down in our gut instincts and intuitively, we know that it’s the right choice for ourselves.
2. Saturn Retrograde in Pisces (29 degrees)
As Saturn is retrograding in Pisces at 29 degrees, there could be a final roadblock or lesson that we’ll experience before reaping the benefits or seeing an alignment. Read about our Saturn retrograde in Aries and Pisces post to find out what effects this has, especially once you factor in this blood moon in Pisces.
3. Jupiter in Cancer Trine North Node in Pisces and Sextile South Note in Virgo
There will be an illumination of what has been hidden, or subconscious triggers that bring up emotional securities in us. This is a positive aspect.
- If you’ve been feeling isolated from everything in your life, this aspect will bring you out of that and push you to show the emotional depth that you have accumulated or always had within you. Showing up in a more compassionate and true version of yourself, interacting with others on a deeper level and forming a closer bond.
- If you’ve been hiding your gifts and talents, this aspect will ease you into showing it and even have abundance waiting for you to grab on to.
This is also about aligning your subconscious with your emotional needs, being more aligned within yourself. That ‘knowing’ of oneself on a deeper level. Then enabling you to make the necessary discernment in your daily lives, to further that alignment towards your higher self, career or personal goals.
4. Blood Moon in Pisces, in the terms and face of Jupiter, with Jupiter exalted in Cancer.
The qualities of Jupiter in Cancer will also be of importance during this blood moon. Not only because it’s making an aspect to the full moon itself but also because the moon is in Jupiter’s term and face. As a collective, we’re going to get more in touch with our roots, whether ancestral or just familial. This will also allow us to see reality in a different light. A light in which we feel like ourselves, and not pretending to be like others or so that we can ‘fit in’. Subconscious realisation about our true selves, our connection to each other, our deeper roots as a spiritual being. We’ll feel more abundant within ourselves, more in tune, more aligned. We will ‘know’ more, ‘feel’ more and be that much wiser.
5. Mercury moving fast into a conjunction to the Sun in Virgo.
Mercury is considered both domicile and exalted here in Virgo. While Mercury is considered combust, there’s a different tone to it because of its dignity. It’s going to allow you to discern everything that’s going on in your life, to now put yourself first. To let loose, to know when you’re overthinking or being too much of a perfectionist. Then to be aware and realise you’re overdoing it. To now take one step at a time and go with the flow of things.
6. Jupiter in Cancer squaring Mars in Libra
The ruler of this blood moon, Jupiter, is making a harsh aspect to Mars. Mars is the planet of action, detrimental in Libra. We’re going to want things to be balanced and peaceful, not wanting to do things for ourselves or act according to what really needs to be done. We’re going to act in accordance with the greater good of things, for everyone.
So while we’re pushed to let go of control, to flow with things, we will still want things to be balanced. The interesting thing is that Mars is currently in the terms and face of Jupiter. So there is some form of support from Jupiter. There will be relationships, harmonies, or balance that you’ll need to let go off for the greater good of not just everyone involved but so that you can grow more in life. To now focus on what you truly need so that you can grow abundantly.
What to take note of during this Blood Moon?
1. Illumination of your subconscious
This is specially relating to your emotional security, family environment and home affairs. There will be a realisation or more awareness of what you already have and should be thankful for. That abundance you seek is within if you’re willing to pivot and grow.
2. Fated opportunities
Jupiter is making a trine aspect to this blood moon, especially to the north node in pisces. There’s going to an opportunity for you to align yourself towards subconscious desires, soul level alignment. The opportunity or opportunities that present themselves will be extremely beneficial and rewarding. It may feel fated, or karmically owed to you. But you must be willing to accept the opportunity, even if it doesn’t seem logical right at that point in time. Of course, use your discernment, but listen to your intuition.

3. True alignment to your soul’s path
Do not be stuck with what you’re used to. This is the time to surrender to what is uncharted territories. It may be tried and tested by others, but not you. Even though they seem to have it figured out, you’re unwilling to jump into it because it’s not what you’re used to. Listen to your intuition. Listen to what truly aligns you towards your higher self. If you know you need to change something in your life, or to let go of how you have been trying to control and keep everything ‘together’, do it.
How will this Blood Moon in Pisces affect you based on your rising sign?
While the following descriptions are based on one’s rising sign, if you have a stellium with your Sun or Moon sign, that will also help in giving more information about which areas of your life are illuminated on during this period.
Aries
This is happening in your 12th house of subconscious, isolation
What have you suddenly realised or has come to your attention? What subconscious thoughts have you been having? Are these related to your home environment? Family? Emotional Security? Or are there habits and routines you’ve been going through with that you realise aren’t what you want to be doing anymore?
This period is going to highlight hidden thoughts, from your soul. Pay attention to anything that comes up, triggers you, or makes you realise you aren’t really where you want to be. It may be a period in which your soul wants to connect with you, giving you lessons that push you into isolation. Take this time to get in touch with what you can learn from taking a break, being by yourself. Don’t get too caught up in your daily routines that you neglect time to rest. May also need to let go of past regrets and let bygones be bygones.
It’s also going to push you to realise deep emotional needs and wisdom that you have. To realise what you truly need in life to feel secure and what you can actually teach others about or what you are lacking and want to achieve more of. This may have to do with your home, what you truly need in life or relationship with your family and parents.
Taurus
This is happening in your 11th house of friends, hopes and wishes.
What have you been trying to achieve or have hopes towards? What social circles have you been associating yourself with? Or have you been toying with 2 possibilities about what you hope to achieve? Are these related to your personal beliefs, short travels, communication or siblings?
This period is pushing you to uncover what your personal hopes and wishes for yourself are, then to see which ones you have been so fixed with that you haven’t considered other possibilities. These other opportunities may present themselves while you’re fixed on a specific one. You do not need to focus on one but instead go with the flow of things and not force your own desires or try to control things. Trust in the process and you’ll be shown a path that aligns more for you.
It’s also asking you to realise where you have been ‘muted’. Where you have been ‘overpowered’ in terms of your social environment, not allowing you to speak up or communicate about the emotional depth and wisdom that you have. It could come in the form of a lesson where someone will make you realise something deep within you that you weren’t aware of. You may need to release certain friendships in order for new ones that are more aligned to your path to come in.
Gemini
This is happening in your 10th house of career and higher self.
What are you trying to achieve in your career? Or has there been things beyond your control that you are trying to insist on controlling especially in your career and home? Is this related to your inner values or finances?
This period is pushing you to surrender to what may come in your career. To just go with the flow of things, even if it means pivoting to a different one. Jupiter is exalted in your 2nd house making a very good aspect to this full moon. May speak about letting go of something in your career in order to gain more finances. This is also about your higher self. What do you need to align to in order to gain more emotional wisdom or reach greater heights?
This is also about gaining more awareness or wisdom about your inner values and finances. There could be a realisation that your financial situation is cared for and an increase is underway without you needed to control things around you. That you can let go of what you have been ‘known’ as up till now and ‘swim’ the other way. Follow your instincts on doing what’s right for yourself even if others may not understand or agree.
Cancer
This is happening in your 9th house of philosophy, long distance travel and religion.
What mass beliefs have you been subscribed to that now requires you to let go of? Do you need to expand your views because you’re now realising that there are certain limitations you have placed yourself in? Do you need to travel to a foreign land or learn more about philosophy/spirituality? Are these related to your own sense of self and identity?
This period is pushing you to pursue further education that may be spiritual or philosophical in nature, due to a certain lesson or trigger that may arise. There is something about your sense of self, that is going to benefit a lot from expanding your horizons. To not be stuck in what you currently believe in or are educated with. Be open to exploring outside of your comfort zone.
This is also about finding out who you truly are, how you want to come across to the world and embracing your truest self. There is a lot you can teach others during this period, especially if you come from a compassionate and nurturing perspective.
Leo
This is happening in your 8th house of gains from others, loss and shared finances.
Do you need to get in touch with your subconscious to find out what money truly does for you? Whether it’s sharing it with others or gaining from others? Or have you been too logical about your own finances that it’s time to let loose, go with the flow of things and see what opportunities present themselves?
This period is pushing you to find out how you’re managing shared finances. Of letting go in trying to control how things should be, listen to the other party and go with the flow. You’re being aligned to a more opportunistic path that you aren’t able to see.
This is also about new ways in which you’re gaining material wealth. This could be from a partner, a business opportunity or an inheritance. So be open to receiving, and not closed off in being so logical about how you’re currently gaining wealth. Follow your intuition.
Virgo
This is happening in your 7th house of 1-1 relationships, spouse, partnerships.
How have you been relating to others? Especially to your spouse or potential spouse? Have you been too logical in your sense of self that you’re not willing to let go of certain things you’ve always been aligned to?
This period is going to change a lot of things for you. Not just with your sense of self, but your relationships with others. There could be something significant that happens to your spouse or with your close relationships. Since Jupiter is also in your 11th house, your social circle will also be affected. You may be gaining a lot more wisdom and opportunities that feel fated for you. Do not be stuck in how you’ve currently viewed the world where everything needs to make sense and be logical. Trust your intuition and release what was restricting you.
This is also about your own hopes and wishes that may feel more ‘real’ now. It may be more achievable, already enroute or steered towards it even more. There is much to gain from your social circle.
Libra
This is happening in your 6th house of daily routines, habits, health and pets.
How have you been going about your daily life and is it aligned to what you should be doing? What about at work with coworkers or things you do at work? Have you been trying to control too much unknowingly, allowing unforeseen circumstances to throw you off and then go into panic mode?
This period is pushing you to allow things to be and work with it. You may need to take a step back and just take things easy. To understand that everyone has their own nature and to be understanding. This will ultimately help your own career goals and path. Whether it’s taking off a responsibility at work, pivoting to a different one or changing your entire routine, this will contribute greatly to your career.
With regards to your health, there are certain habits or ways of thinking that you need to shed so that you’re able to go into a more fulfilling and healthier version of yourself, your higher self. Trust in your intuition in knowing what’s working and what’s not.
Scorpio
This is happening in your 5th house of hobbies, romance, children and self-expression.
How have you been expressing your inner child and yourself? Have you been able to do things that make you feel happy? Or have you been too logical in terms of your own hopes, wishes and social circle that you can’t fully let go and enjoy life? For those with children, have you been trying to steer them towards your own version of what it means to be successful and not what truly feels right for them?
This period is pushing you to let go of how you have been expressing yourself. To not control too much and just go with the flow of things. To allow your inner child to be a child. With Jupiter in your 9th, there’s much to gain from expanding your world, your horizons and beliefs. Not only that, it’s also making a grand trine to your rising. This period is going to be very potent for you to realise the abundance, the opportunities that are coming in. There will be one last hurdle with regards to you expressing yourself before the fated opportunities will come in.
This is also speaking about traveling, learning something new that may even involve a further education, philosophy, metaphysical or even religious. It’s not a time to be stuck, but to really look at the vastness of the world in order to really reap the benefits that Jupiter has in store for you.
Sagittarius
This is happening in your 4th house of home, parents and emotional security.
Have you been too focused on your career that you’re neglecting your family life? Your relationships with your family, your home environment or even what you truly need in life in order to feel secure?
This period is pushing you to stop focusing on putting all your time and energy in your career, and instead to focus on what you need at home. To let go of current situations and instead realise that it’s aligning you towards your truest path. This may involve letting go of a current property, in order to build a stronger relationship with your family. Be open to any changes or opportunities that present themselves. It may involve one last lesson before you’re able to see why you had to let go of it, but the fated abundance after will be very rewarding.
This is also speaking about gains from others that may be inherited or shared. This could be via family members, property or even from business partnerships. Trust in your intuition and do not be too stuck in logic. There’s a ‘oneness’ in us that you are innately aware of.
Capricorn
This is happening in your 3rd house of siblings, communication, personal beliefs and short travels.
What mass belief have you subscribed to that is now your own personal belief? Is it actually helping you in life or just keeping you stuck without any growth? Or how has your communication been with others? Is it too logical that you’re ‘dry’ and pushing away alternative ideas? What about your siblings? Do you have a good relationship with them or is it time to finally let bygones be bygones and repair the relationship?
This period is pushing you to release personal beliefs that aren’t what you should be aligning to. While it may be logical to you, it’s only restricting you from learning what you truly believe in. Go back to the basics. With Jupiter in your 7th, others will be able to help you a lot and offer deep emotional wisdom that you need to hear during this period. Be open to what others are trying to tell you and not be too stuck in your mind. Talk about whatever you’re thinking or feeling. Exchange ideas with others. There’s much to gain from them.
This is also about any short travels that may come up, do it. Especially if it’s with a spouse, sibling or a family member. There’s going to be a change in how you think during this period that will allow you to tap into deeper emotional depth that is needed for you to grow.
Aquarius
This is happening in your 2nd house of inner values and finances.
What monetary habits do you have that you need to let go off? What inner values have you been associating yourself with that is no longer feels aligned to your higher self? Have you been very logical in how you’re managing and sharing your finances that you’re not allowing money to flow easily?
This period is pushing you to release certain limitations or beliefs about your finances in order to get a full picture of a situation you find yourself stuck in. There may come a point in time where you are pushed to realise money is free flowing, to spend it on something or let go of how you’ve been so logical gaining it, so that you’re able to function from a place of positivity in your daily life. It will also greatly contribute to your higher self.
This is also about your inner values. It’s not something that is logical, that others have subscribed to. What do you truly believe to be true according to your own experience? Then find out how is it different from your current reality and what do you need to change or let go of in order to be truly aligned to your own values? Trust your intuition.
Pisces
This is happening in your 1st house of self and identity.
Probably the most potent time for you. What do you need to let go of about your own identity and how you’ve been coming across to the world? How have you been aligning yourself to energies of the universe? Is your current identity growing, if at all?
This period is pushing you to let go of what identity you have been aligning to, it’s a period of transformation and a very potent time for you. It’s not a time to think about how you fit into others’ lives, but who you are and what you came here to realise about your journey in life. This is affecting all other areas of your life. This could be related to your own inner child, your romance or your children. Take this time to focus on yourself. Do not rush into figuring out who or what exactly it is you’re becoming. Listen to your intuition and trust in the process.
This is also about gaining a lot from expressing yourself or doing what makes you happy. This could be with your children, from your romance or even from your hobbies. Be open to any changes that are coming in from your home environment as well.
This blood moon may require a final hurdle with Saturn retrograde in the 29th degree of Pisces, before we’re able to see or feel the abundance and fated opportunities that are coming in. It’s a time to tap into our intuition, be open to any changes and trust our gut instincts in doing what’s right for ourselves which may not be logical at all. Trust in the process as it’s a potent time for realignment towards our higher self and truest path.
