If you’re feeling a bit of chaos brewing in the cosmos, then you’re probably picking up on the energy of the upcoming eclipse season. It all starts with a powerful lunar eclipse on September 17.
This intense lunation also serves as this year’s Harvest Full Moon, occurring less than a week before the spring equinox. And for some signs, this is the beginning of a particularly significant new chapter.

+ How the Lunar Eclipse on September 17 Will Affect Each Zodiac Sign
The September lunar eclipse peaks at the end of Virgo season, during which the sun has been shining through this practical, earth sign. But the eclipse itself is happening directly across the skies in the emotional and intuitive sign of Pisces. This is the first time since 2017 that an eclipse will hit this part of the zodiac, so it marks the start of a new era for all signs — and the changes brought by this lunation will pave the way for a significant emotional and spiritual journey that will last for several years.
Of course, change isn’t easy, and serious upheavals and sudden twists may occur during an eclipse. In the case of the major September lunation, some planetary aspects will make things seem even more intense for some zodiac members. At the time of the eclipse, the sun and moon in Virgo and Pisces will be in a tense T-square with expansive Jupiter in Gemini, which may make emotions feel larger than life and potentially exaggerate your perception of the truth. The moon will also be in a tight conjunction with nebulous Neptune, and the mist of this hazy planet may make it hard to see people’s true motives clearly.
Additionally, stern Saturn will oppose mental Mercury in Pisces and Virgo, respectively — the same signs where the moon and sun will be opposing as they form the eclipse. This could bring some heavy realizations or prompt serious conversations that may make you change course or rethink your direction.
Everyone will feel the effects of this major eclipse, but for the mutable signs of the zodiac, it will be especially tangible. If you’re one of the signs most affected by the September full moon lunar eclipse, here’s what to expect.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
The Virgo season has been shining a light on your fourth home sector in recent weeks, giving you a chance to tidy up things in your personal life and get your home in order. But the September lunar eclipse is shaking things up across the zodiac in your public career sector, so get ready for major changes in your professional trajectory. If you’re stuck in a stagnant work situation or have found yourself slowly moving along a path that isn’t putting your talents to good use, then this lunation could very well come in to realign some things and help you open your eyes to new possibilities.
Additionally, lucky Jupiter in your sign is forming an intense T-square with the lunar eclipse and nebulous Neptune, so while the changes occurring now may feel destabilizing or larger than life, you’re likely to land on your feet. Prepare for big feelings and perhaps some big fears, but be ready to face these things with strength, faith, and confidence. You’ve got this.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
This eclipse is occurring directly across the zodiac from the sun in your sign, Virgo, and is ending your birthday season with a cosmic bang. Your relationships are about to go through a major shift over the next two years, and you’ll find yourself adjusting to some new dynamics and letting go of any rose-colored illusions that may have been holding you back from forging true and lasting emotional connections. This particular eclipse marks the beginning of an important new cycle that will transform your identity and partnerships, leading you to shed old skin and see others in a completely new light. But to do this, be realistic about where you’re at.
As your ruling planet Mercury is in your sign, facing off with Saturn during the eclipse, current events may also force you to set new boundaries and figure out what your limits are with the people closest to you.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
This eclipse is hitting your sign, Pisces, so naturally, it will be a significant moment in your life. The last time an eclipse occurred in your zodiac waters was in 2017. But the last time a lunar eclipse happened in your sign alongside the North Node of Destiny — as this one will — was ten years before that, so you’re about to undergo a major transformation. This lunation is asking you to look at yourself with new eyes. Are you honest about what you see or are you pretending to be someone you’re not?
The moon in your sign will also be in a tight alignment with your dreamy cosmic ruler Neptune, highlighting your escapist tendencies and exposing the raw truth behind your fantasies. It’s time to cut away any illusions or insecurities and start being realistic about how you want to show up in the world — whether in relationships or simply in the first impressions you make on a stranger.
