THE NODES
There can only be an eclipse when either the North or South Node of the Moon are in alignment to Sun or the Moon at the time of an eclipse. Lunar Nodes are imaginary points where the Moon’s orbit intersects the Sun’s path around the Earth (the ecliptic). This particular eclipse will be a North Nodal Eclipse. The North Node represents where the Moon's path rises above the Sun's orbit on the north pole. Thus, the North Node is given qualities of abundance and wealth since the Moon is entering into northern latitude. As the Moon reaches its North Node, a cosmic and spiritual portal opens influences mythologicaly represented by the "Dragon's Head" which is symbolic of intake/hunger and is a point of increase and abundance. The North Node is hungry and so the energy can manifest as fiery greed. Making Septembers Virgo eclipse about abundance, gain hunger and greed but the question is where?
ASPECTS
The Sun will conjoin the Moon at 9 degree 21 minuets Virgo opposite Neptune at 10 degrees 39 minuets and square Saturn 10 degrees 4 minuets Sagittarius. Neptune is at the halfway point of his retrograde cycle, making it hard to discern the new and healthy path. The eclipse also pulls Saturn/Neptune square to their peak, which is all about shattering toxic fantasies and building new healthy realities. Neptune can create lots of fog, making it easy to have the veil's pulled over our eyes. Neptune's function is to dissolve old forms and with Saturn at the apex of the eclipses t-square, boundaries and the realm for an ideal and universal system of values are being shattered and re-evaluated. The Mercury conjunction to Jupiter will help ground in making the right choices and building on tangibility instead of deluded Neptune fantasies. With Mercury retrograde, make a decision, and then make sure to analyze later.
