Living Astrology With Janet Hickox

The Pisces Lunar Eclipse has everyone buzzing, but what's the real impact—and what do you do now that it's here?

The cosmos is guiding us from uncertainty to insight this weekend. On Friday, Uranus stations retrograde in Gemini, shaking up patterns and sparking breakthroughs where we least expect them. Then on Sunday, a powerful Lunar Eclipse in Pisces dissolves illusions, clears old emotional debris, and opens the way for spiritual renewal.At the same time, the new Human Design week brings the Sun into Gate 64 – Divine Transference and the Earth into Gate 63 – Curiosity, reminding us that confusion is not the end—it's the gateway to clarity and wisdom when we stay curious.Join me as we explore how to navigate these energies, release what no longer serves, and trust the process of confusion transforming into clarity.

This week begins with a shift in the cosmic tempo. Saturn retrogrades back into Pisces on September 1, inviting us to revisit unfinished lessons from 2023–2024. It's a call to tie up loose ends, close karmic loops, and ground our spiritual insights into practical form before Saturn moves fully into Aries again in 2026.At the same time, the Sun and Earth are in Human Design Gates 40 (Restoration) and 37 (Peace), setting the tone for the new week. The focus is on striking a balance between self-reliance and connection, honoring the need for both independence and a sense of belonging.The Moon's journey adds flavor to the weekend: moving from Scorpio into Sagittarius, it shifts us from intensity and depth into optimism and expansion—perfect for Labor Day reflection and renewal.Overall theme: A week of restoration, reconnection, and review. The cosmos invites us to pause, integrate, and realign before the larger activations of September unfold.

It's a quiet weekend in the skies — the perfect pause before September's whirlwind begins. The new Human Design week invites us into Gate 40 – Restoration and Gate 37 – Peace, a call to rest, recover, and reconnect with what truly nourishes us. The Moon moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius, shifting the emotional tone from deep reflection to expansive curiosity. Join me as we explore how to align with this weekend's gentle energies and prepare for the transformative month ahead.

Theme of the Month: Sacred Reform – Turning Pressure into PurposeSeptember is a month of thresholds and turning points. With two eclipses activating the Virgo–Pisces axis, Saturn opposing the Sun, and multiple planets pressed at 29° “critical degrees,” the skies ask you to close karmic loops and step into new beginnings with accountability and integrity. This isn't light or casual energy—it's reformative, catalytic, and deeply purposeful.The Human Design story mirrors this. You begin in confusion and doubt (64/63), pass through grace (22) and compassion (36), and arrive at embodiment (46) and realignment (18). September's gift is that every challenge, every shadow, is also a doorway into integrity and delight. The eclipses remind you: destiny resets under pressure. The question is—will you meet it with heaviness, or with the joy of embodied purpose?Tune in as Tam and I break it all down for you.

Venus takes the stage this week with fiery passion, surprising turns, and transformative encounters. From her bold entrance into Leo to her dance with Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, Venus reminds us what (and who) we truly value.Meanwhile, the Sun in Gate 59 – Sustainability and Earth in Gate 55 – Faith call us to cultivate intimacy and emotional trust, opening the door to greater freedom in spirit.

This weekend's Virgo New Moon is no ordinary fresh start.

This week brings powerful shifts as the Sun shines through Gate 29 – Commitment and the Earth grounds us in Gate 30 – Passion. Jupiter moves into Gate 53 – Starting, opening new doors, while Pluto steps into Gate 60 – Conservation, reminding us to honor what is lasting and true. Adding to the mix, Mercury in Leo sextiles Mars in Libra, inspiring bold conversations and cooperative action. Join me as we explore how these cosmic and Human Design energies invite you to align with what matters most, begin fresh cycles, and balance passion with wisdom.Join the Autumn Eclipses Webinar: https://choosebigchange.com/products/astroinklings-webinar-series-2025?variant=46411650007232
