This week we stand in the quiet space between eclipses — a liminal threshold where the old story is dissolving and the new one hasn’t fully arrived. It’s like the tide pulling back before a wave: a pause that reveals what’s been hidden, and an invitation to decide what stays and what goes.
The energy is busy in the mind, tender in the heart, and searching for fairness in relationships. The cosmos isn’t asking you to push harder, but to edit, refine, and realign. Think less “more, more, more” and more “precise, honest, and balanced.”

Here’s a breakdown of how this week's key transits (September 15-21) will likely affect each rising sign:
Aries Rising: This week focuses on your relationships and partnerships (7th House). With Mercury in Libra, communication with a significant other, a close friend, or a business partner is key. It's a great time to have honest, open conversations to resolve any lingering issues and find a greater sense of balance and fairness.
Taurus Rising: The focus is on your daily routines, health, and work environment (6th House). You're likely to be very productive and hands-on with your projects. This is an excellent time to improve your work-life balance, get organized, and implement new, healthy habits.
Gemini Rising: This week is all about self-expression, creativity, and romance (5th House). Your natural charm is at an all-time high, making it a great time for social interactions and new connections. Use this energy to pursue hobbies you love, enjoy playful moments, and express your feelings openly.
Cancer Rising: Your attention is drawn to your home, family, and inner world (4th House). You may feel a strong desire to create a more nurturing and comfortable environment. This is a time for emotional honesty with your loved ones and for finding security within yourself.
Leo Rising: Communication and short trips are highlighted this week (3rd House). Your mind is buzzing with new ideas, but the key is to stay focused and not scatter your energy. A conversation with a sibling, neighbor, or a close friend could bring important clarity or healing.
Virgo Rising: The focus is on your finances, self-worth, and personal values (2nd House). This week invites you to be practical and mindful of your spending. You're being asked to build on what you already have and trust your steady, disciplined progress.
Libra Rising: With Mercury, the planet of communication, moving into your sign, your entire chart is activated (1st House). This is a week of personal growth and self-discovery. You are seeing things with greater clarity, and it's an ideal time to make decisions that reflect your true self and your current values.
Scorpio Rising: This is a period for introspection, healing, and working behind the scenes (12th House). You may feel a bit tired or more emotionally sensitive. This week asks you to let go of old emotional baggage and trust your intuition. Solitude will bring strength.
Sagittarius Rising: Your social life and future goals are in the spotlight (11th House). This is a week to connect with friends, expand your network, and consider your long-term aspirations. The energy is great for collaboration and looking at new possibilities for the future.
Capricorn Rising: Your career and public image are the main focus (10th House). The week's energies encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and be more visible in your professional life. Trust that your hard work is paying off and that you are ready to claim a greater level of authority.
Aquarius Rising: This week highlights travel, education, and your personal beliefs (9th House). Your mind is expanding, and you may feel a desire to learn something new or explore new territories, both literally and figuratively. This is a great time for honest conversations that redefine your perspectives.
Pisces Rising: The focus is on shared resources, intimacy, and transformation (8th House). This week encourages you to be vulnerable and explore deeper connections. It's a time to let go of old emotional patterns and have an open conversation about what is no longer serving you in your relationships.
Looking Back to 2007
South Node eclipses stir the past — and this one is no exception. It’s the first South Node solar eclipse in Virgo since 2007, so don’t be surprised if memories from that era bubble up. Maybe you’ll unearth a forgotten journal, an old recipe, or a dusty art project you once promised yourself you’d return to. Whatever resurfaces, treat it as meaningful. This is a chance to revisit unfinished stories and find long-overdue closure.
If you were a kid in 2007, notice what big shifts that year set in motion for you. If you don’t recall 2007 — or weren’t born yet — this eclipse will still ignite change. Think of it as a clarifying moment: what worked 18 years ago may no longer fit. Celebrate the progress you’ve made, honor your younger self, and step into who you’ve become.
Making the Most of This Solar Eclipse
Around this eclipse, your nervous system and self-care come first. Give yourself space to rest and underschedule as much as you can. Let emotions flow without needing to analyze them all — simple acknowledgement is healing. Capture insights in notes or voice memos, but don’t feel pressured to act immediately.
Comfort is the medicine here. Try:
A salt bath or deep stretch
A journaling session or cathartic cry
A quiet moment, folding laundry or washing dishes
The goal? Relax, release, reset. That’s the true assignment of this eclipse.
11 Ways to Support Yourself During the Eclipse in Virgo
Build in buffer time. Expect the unexpected — leave space in your calendar.
Hold off on big moves. Wait until after September 21st before launching or deciding major things.
Tune up your systems. Review work routines, wellness practices, and organization. Keep what works, adjust what doesn’t.
Reclaim your energy. Notice where you’re overextended, and delegate or let go where possible.
Tame the inner critic. Replace self-judgment with self-compassion.
Reset your space. Virgo thrives on intentional cleansing and decluttering.
Prioritize rest. Silence notifications, take a shower, curl up with a book.
Embrace what soothes you. Tea, comfort shows, fuzzy socks, pet time — anchor yourself.
Track the shifts. Pay attention to what’s leaving, arriving, or transforming.
Tune in. Listen to the Astrology of the Week Ahead podcast and check the “This Week” section in the CHANI app.
Work it through. Use the journal prompts, meditation, altar suggestions, and ritual in the CHANI app to process eclipse emotions.
The Acorn’s Lesson

Yesterday, walking in the woods, I heard acorns thudding to the ground — one even bonked me on the head, nature’s playful way of saying “pay attention.”
I picked it up. Inside that tiny acorn was everything required to become a mighty oak — not someday, not under perfect conditions, but right now. The acorn doesn’t second-guess. It doesn’t wait for the right soil or wonder if it’s worthy. When the time comes, it simply cracks open and grows.
How often do we hold back, waiting until we feel ready, qualified, or certain? Meanwhile, the universe keeps dropping opportunities on us like acorns, and too often, we walk past them.
Autumn is not only the season of harvest — it’s the season of seeds falling, potential scattering. You are both the acorn and the soil, the seed and the garden. Everything you need to grow is already within you.
So ask yourself: What would it feel like to stop waiting and start becoming this week?
Stay Magic 🌙
PS — Autumn is the season of dreaming. Every acorn is a reminder of infinite possibilities. Whether it stays on the ground or gets carried and buried, the potential is already there. Take time this season to wonder, to dream, and to revel in the possibilities blooming inside you.
🌙 Theme of the Week
“Refine, rebalance, and let clarity emerge from honest conversation.”

With Libra energy highlighted, Justice appears to remind us that choices must honor truth, fairness, and balance. Eclipse corridors can blur our vision, but Justice cuts through the fog.

✨ Why it’s perfect now: As Mercury and Mars move through Libra, relationship dynamics and decisions are magnified. Justice helps you avoid people-pleasing or rushing, instead, it guides you toward choices that feel clean and sustainable.
