This Sunday, September 21, heaven gives us a double event loaded with symbolism and cosmic power. Between 6:29 p.m. and 10:53 p.m. the last eclipse of the year will take place, a partial solar eclipse in the 29th degree of Virgo (South node). The phenomenon occurs because the Moon comes between the Earth and the Sun in an almost perfect alignment, covering part of its disk and thus creating the eclipse.

This eclipse is, without a doubt, one of the milestones of the September lunar calendar, although it cannot be seen from the entire planet: according to the Spanish Geographic Institute, only the lucky ones who are in the South Pacific Ocean, Polynesia, New Zealand and some parts of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean.

Solar eclipses always take place during a new Moon, since it is precisely the alignment between the Sun, the Moon and the Earth that characterizes this lunar phase that allows them to occur. The Moon enters the new moon phase specifically at 9:55 p.m.. At that moment, the illuminated face of the Moon is oriented in the opposite direction to us, so it will be hidden in the sky.

This phase, of total darkness, opens a new lunar cycle and offers the perfect opportunity to contemplate the sky with greater claritysince the absence of lunar light allows the brightness of the stars to be appreciated more clearly.

Although we cannot see it, the presence of this New Moon in Virgo is kept silent, weaving the energy needed to sow new intentions and begin a new order, in which the liberation of burdens is now possible. A simple New Moon ritual or a meditation for the new moon can help you in this process.
