August Eclipse Season 2026 - Part Two
Virgo season has arrived. I know the air betwixt is busy with talk of this lunar eclipse and its square to Uranus, our agent of disruptive chaos. But eclipses rarely move in straight lines, and this one holds more than one surprise for those of us standing at the threshold.
On August 27th, the eclipsed Full Moon in Pisces dances near Fomalhaut. Her square with rebel Uranus is a friction point, yes—but where there is friction, there is the possibility for something entirely new to catch fire.
Saturn in Pisces: the Sanctification of Pleasure
Between now and when Saturn stations retrograde on June 17th, the majority of the aspects from other planets are sextiles (60°) and trines (120°). These aspects are under the domain of both benefics, Venus (sextile) and Jupiter (trine). This means we may expect ease, flow, harmony, connection and growth. And with Saturn floating in the sign of Pisces this gives plenty of opportunity to sanctify our pleasure.
Venus in Pisces 2023 Horoscopes
Today at 6:33 pm pacific time, Venus, the planet of love and connection, enters the dreamy sign of Pisces, where its beauty, harmony, and charm are heightened and enhanced through the generous, compassionate, kind eyes of the universal healer. Venus is only here for a short period before moving into fiery Aries on February 19th at 11:55pm pacific time, so we only have a little over three weeks with this beauty in all her glory during the season that celebrates the rebels and edge walkers, so folks, let's enjoy it, shall we?
