Overview

• The total lunar eclipse on September 7–8 coincides with the Full Moon in Pisces, with much of the United States missing the event because the Moon is below the horizon during local daytime.
• Reports note the eclipse’s reddish “Blood Moon” hue occurs when sunlight filters through Earth’s atmosphere and casts red wavelengths onto the lunar surface during totality.
• Astrologers characterize this Pisces eclipse as a catalyst for revelations, endings and course corrections in relationships and careers, citing Saturn’s retrograde in Pisces and Jupiter in Cancer as context.
• Guidance for the September 7–21 eclipse corridor advises pausing major commitments, contracts and big purchases, and focusing instead on journaling, meditation, rest and reassessment.
• Coverage highlights that mutable signs—Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces—may feel the shifts most strongly, and notes a follow-on solar eclipse is due on September 21.
