Lunar Eclipse Virgo Full Moon March 13-14, 2025
The Blood Moon symbolizes a time to let go and heal. Virgo is the Fair Maiden, Healer, and Servant. A mutable earth sign ruled by Mercury and ruler of the Sixth House in the natural Zodiac. The Sixth House is where we look for occupation, illness, food, employees, and small animals. “I analyze.” This is the first of four eclipses this year and the Moon looks reddish during a total lunar eclipse, thus being called the Blood Moon. The effects of the Lunar Eclipse last about six months.
There is a multitude of myths and folklore about eclipses and the Blood Moon from the belief the Moon is under attack, wounded or ill during an eclipse. The common theme throughout cultural beliefs is that it is a time of deep spiritual reflection and exploration of the subconscious, particularly the emotions such as anger and grief.
The following day, March 15, Mercury stations retrograde in the sign of Aries until April 7, 2025. Another energy that is connected to inner work and introspection. Venus continues retrograde also in Aries and within a few degrees of Mercury. Venus stations direct April 12, 2025. Mercury Venus in Aries retrograde forming a conjunction is a similar energy looking back at the Spring of 2017. You may experience people or financial issues from the past resurfacing. It is an opportunity for self-examination and taking ownership of the life lessons associated with love and money. Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac and represents children so these lessons are likely related to the inner child. Mars rules Aries and is our inner warrior, creates compulsive behavior and can be argumentative. Stay calm, cool and collected under this lunation as there will be many challenges to finding and keeping your inner peace.
As the weekend progresses the Moon enters Libra and will make oppositions to Venus and Mercury which may mark some significate life changes. With the Moon making a trine to Jupiter in Gemini, it could be a very lively time for networking, circulating information and feeling a lack of focus.
As March unfolds, the energy builds toward the Spring Equinox (Northern Hemisphere) as the Sun transits into Aries March 20, 2025 which also happens to be International Astrology Day! The Sun will be in conjunction with the Mercury Venus retrograde dance and will amplify the subjects of love and money. A month with intensified attention on Soul-searching. Celebrate International Astrology Day by enjoying nature, start new healthy habits, create a vision board, meditate, journal and clear space to make room for the new beginnings in your life.
We are heading towards a Solar Eclipse Aries New Moon by March 29, 2025 and March will prove to be the most energetic month of the year. Neptune will transit into Aries for the first time since 1861 as it takes 165 years to orbit the Sun so it will remain in Aries until 2038 marking another new era of evolution in humankind. Be prepared to be shocked, mesmerized and set free to new levels of creative expression!
