The final eclipse of the year coincides with Mabon, the Fall Equinox, bringing a potent moment of balance, reflection, and release. This Partial Solar Eclipse in Virgo, on the South Node, invites us to declutter our lives, let go of unproductive habits, and reset our routines. As the Moon moves into Libra shortly after, we are called to bring harmony, fairness, and intention into our relationships and communities. Combining Equinox, Mabon, New Moon, and eclipse energies, this threshold moment encourages both personal and collective recalibration. It’s a time to honor what we’ve harvested, release what no longer serves, and step consciously into the next chapter of the year.

On August 23rd, the Virgo New Moon arrives as both Sun and Moon cross into Virgo, marking not just a seasonal threshold, but a spiritual one. This lunation is especially potent—falling at a critical degree, and as the first of two Virgo New Moons in succession, it amplifies themes of recalibration, service, and healing. Virgo’s energy asks us to clear what no longer supports us, refine the habits that sustain us, and return to rhythm rather than perfection.
