Solar Eclipse on the South Node
29° Virgo — 6:21 PM (Lisbon time)
Solar eclipses represents a new external or collective beginning, though this usually comes preceded by an interruption, crisis, or emptiness; as if life pauses to realign us.
This type of eclipse can show up as:
External losses or endings that create space for something new
Events or processes that unfold over time, not necessarily on the eclipse day itself
A darkening of the Sun, meaning our consciousness, ego, or will. This can feel like a moment of disorientation or emptiness that gives way to a new direction, one more aligned with our soul
Because the eclipse "dims our consciousness," the unconscious becomes more powerfully activated. This is why during an eclipse it's wise to embrace silence, meditation, time in nature, and solitude. It’s a powerful opportunity for alignment, one that calls for the activation of your conscious self.
South Node When an eclipse happens with the South Node, its main purpose is to release old identities, limiting automatic patterns, or bring about karmic completions. It's more about letting go than achieving. It's a call to leave behind roles, stories, or ways of controlling that no longer serve our soul's purpose.
In the sign of Virgo Virgo invites us to observe with clarity and humility.
It can open a portal for:
Refining our physical body and concrete mind as vehicles for the soul
Purifying our practical life, keeping only what's essential
Reorganizing our priorities to step into a phase of more authentic and conscious service
Natal House of the Eclipse
The house where 29° Virgo falls in your birth chart reveals the area of life where this pause or new start will take place. That area may remain activated for the next 6 to 12 months.
If the eclipse is conjunct a personal planet (within 3°), it will also restructure themes related to that planet.
