So good. Sky Song Astrology you're the best at describing the true sky above implications on us below.
(This post has been edited to correct an original incorrect time of the eclipse for Washinton DC, which shifted the houses in the chart quite a bit.)
Washington, D.C. – Solar Eclipse, September 21, 2025
As Washington goes about its daily business, at 3.47pm local time, the Virgo Maiden, where the eclipse is taking place in astronomical skies, shifts towards the western horizon.
Over Washington specifically she sits in the 8th house, the house of hidden things and ancient mysteries. The house where these things tend to surface again and again until we face them.
Her gaze is calm, attentive, and precise, surveying the world below with the clarity of ancient wisdom. The solar eclipse over the city reaches its maximum peak in other parts of the world where the shadow of the eclipse can be seen.
She has walked the earth in many forms: holding the Scales in Egypt before Libra stood as a sign; as Demeter, guardian of the harvest; as Astraea, departing an age of corruption; as Isis, weaving cycles of fertility and rebirth; as Mary, the Virgin; and as Mary Magdalene, whose true story of devotion and service to the highest Truth is now being reclaimed.
She has walked beside Solomon as the Queen of Sheba. (Sol-O-Mon, the Sun and the Moon itself.) She embodies the Vedic Mother principle, the nurturing, protective, creative force that stands against corruption, ego and pride, deceit and lower desires.
To many of the ancient native peoples spread across the planet, she is the ancient Guardian and protector of the Earth, the restorer of the balance and the enforcer of natural law.
Yet she sees that many below have tainted and distorted her ancient truths. Twisting them into the depravations of modern-day society and its immediate wants with no thought for tomorrow or harm to others.
Her ruler, Mercury, has returned to her for this moment, resting just off her left shoulder in support. Mercury to the Romans, who was Hermes to the ancient Greeks, who was Thoth to the ancient Egyptians.
In Hermetic tradition it is Hermes Trismegistus that is associated with the writings of The Emerald Tablet, which states:
“That which is above is like to that which is below,
and that which is below is like to that which is above,
to accomplish the miracles of one thing.”
And so, for this eclipse, she has gathered the 3 earth signs of the zodiac into a perfect grand trine. Uranus in the fixed earth sign of Ta**us, the Sun and the Moon for the eclipse itself and Mercury into her own mutable earthly sign of Virgo, and Pluto in the earth’s cardinal sign of Capricorn.
As the solar eclipse morphs into its maximum peak in other parts of the world, the Sun, Moon, and Mercury in Virgo in the 8th house over Washington whisper hidden currents, karmic reckonings, and the secrets of what has quietly been set in motion that Washington itself cannot see.
From here the Sun, the Moon and Mercury oppose Saturn and Neptune in the 2nd house, representing the wealth beneath our feet. The wealth that truly belongs to the earth, and not to man to hoard instead of share, as the Mother herself shares.
In the sidereal charts Mars is in the 8th house also, in Libra, over the Washington skies. But in the astronomical skies, Mars, although still in the 8th house, can clearly be seen still in the sign of Virgo herself, near the maidens left knee.
Mars in this position becomes a restless flame, partly for earth and partly for air, working to achieve cosmic balance either way, since to the ancients the scales themselves were held by the Virgo maiden.
From here, Mars demands action, while its very position demands that these actions be measured up against higher principles.
With this in mind, in this position Mars bends his will towards more cosmic influences. Specifically, towards Saturn and Neptune in the 2nd house via quincunx and Uranus in the 4th house also via quincunx. Any actions taken here will have consequences that ripple into the future.
From this position, Mars also opposes Chiron the wounded healer, in the 2nd house, in Aries ruled by Mars. So, wounds and healings are thrown into the mix through the affairs of Mars here. Wounds that align with 2nd house affairs, which concern those resources beneath our feet once again in this chart.
And this will be a tangled and intense dance. Especially since Chiron forms a t square with Jupiter in the 5th house (pleasures and excesses of pleasures under Jupiter) and Pluto in the 12th house stirring things up where they cannot be seen.
(It should also be mentioned here that Pluto itself forms a t square with both Chiron and Mars.)
Meanwhile, Uranus, Pluto and Saturn and Neptune are in for the longer cosmic dance, beautifully supporting each other up against the inner planets and the choices that we make down on lower earth.
Uranus is in Ta**us, in the 4th house, and this is home ground for Washington, which will shake foundations and areas of comfort, by squaring the part of fortune near the ascendant (the face of Washington itself).
Pluto in retrograde in Capricorn will also work to shift the ground beneath our feet in every way, in the 12th house over Washington, in areas that Washinton cannot see.
While Saturn and Neptune, both conjunct and in retrograde in Pisces, in the 2nd house over Washington, will restructure the resources beneath our feet towards where our values should truly be for the harvest which will come at the turning of the age.
Where the man in Aquarius recently poured out the water from the urn at the time of the recent lunar eclipse.
Good things are coming on planet earth. But first we have to align to get there.
Individually and as collectively as possible.
As karma speeds up on this planet at this time.
It should also be noted that for this event even newly identified comets have joined and will be joining her further in the skies in the near future.
There’s so much more. But this astrologer can’t type all day…
We might dive in further...before the eclipse lands.
~Love and Peace to All~ 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
