This is the 6th eclipse of an eclipse set of 7 occurring along the Virgo-Pisces axis that began in September 2024 and runs until February 2027. This set began almost two years ago, in September 2024, with a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces, continued with a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo in March 2025, a Lunar Eclipse in September 2025, a Solar Eclipse in Virgo in September 2025, a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo in March 2026, this one (Lunar Eclipse in Pisces in August 2026), and a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo in February 2027.
Location:

Lunar Eclipses (in house 7) are about relationships, moods and polarities. With the Virgo-Pisces service axis involved, this Lunar Eclipse presses us to look more closely at our needs, lacks, and wants. We are encouraged to find a balance between day-to- day functions and routines, physical health, and the need for order (Virgo) and vision, spiritual health, disorder, and the infinite (Pisces).
Virgo rules the tools and techniques we use to deal with day-to-day life, while Pisces rules the tools we use to deal with our spiritual selves. The key to balance lies in identifying and expressing our spiritual needs while maintaining order in our everyday lives.
The range of emotions that Pisces registers is extraordinary, and this could be a time when we feel that enormous range. Around the date of the FM Lunar eclipse, the idealistic side of us comes out full speed ahead.
This is a time to clear up past patterns that have been holding us back from personal fulfilment. We might open ourselves up to new possibilities, observing the emotions that push to the surface, and finalizing plans that should probably be saved for a later date.
Let’s have a look at the chart !

* 7 Retrograde planets = Juno, Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, Vesta, Pallas and Chiron. With this symphony of retrogradation, the karma cleansing continues and any old memories might come to surface in order to be erased. One can remember the concept from Castaneda books, erasing personal story.
* Spot on the ascendant Leo:
As this FM follows the NM in Leo, we can notice a “bounce of the sun” on the ascendant. This is a nice paradox as the sun disappeared on the 12th August and the ascendant of this FM reflects the solar sign of Leo. This is a call for self confidence, to built a magnetic personality, not to be absorbed by our ego and not to be influence by the ego of others.
* Spot on the moon in Pisces:
A Moon in Pisces indicates a high level of empathy, intuition and imagination. Emotions are experienced with extreme depth and increased sensitivity to the surrounding energies. With the eclipse, We can also point out a potential come back or a rise of the 6th sense, that has been occulted by the system and our conditionings.
* Spot on the conjunction Sun- Mercury in Virgo:
This aspect combines the Sun’s authority, vitality, and soul with Mercury’s intelligence, communication, and analytical skills, resulting in exceptional mental clarity, sharp intellect, and persuasive speech.
Key words :
- Intellectual Mastery
- Practical Communication
- leadership roles
- Perfectionism
* Spot on the symbolism of the fish: the moon of the Sturgeon !
The primitive fish used to be abundant in North America’s lakes and rivers during the summer months. Having remained mostly unchanged since the earliest fossil records, sturgeons are ancient living fossils that can grow up until 3.5 m long, or as long as two adult humans stacked on top of each other.
In China, this FM coincides with the Hungry Ghosts Festival... when the gates of hell open up and the hungry dead once again walk amongst the living. The Chinese prepare offerings of food and money to satisfy the ghosts’ hunger, make them happy, and prevent them from causing havoc amongst humankind.

Native American tribes also saw the Sturgeon Full Moon as signifying a time of bountiful harvest. The Cherokee tribes called it the Full Fruit Moon, and many other
first nation tribes referred to it as the Black Berries Moon. The Sioux called it the Moon when all things ripen.
* Quote of the FM :
It is only with total humility, and in absolute stillness of mind that we can know what indeed we are.
Wu Wei proverb
* Reminder:
On the 3rd March 26, there was a lunar eclipse in Virgo...
