“you are the infinite, temporarily given a name”
As I’m writing this healing letter for August, we’ve entered in the (new) Eclipses season and stepped into the threshold of second part of 2026 changes. This year, Eclipses are a bit early in the game (the first pair of Eclipses were in February instead of spring and now, the 2nd pair comes in the middle of summer instead of autumn) which in my view signifies the incredible soul urge to…move us forward without waiting for our natural hesitations.
It’s been quite a year, darlings. I know you feel the same. For me, for you, for the world as a collective. It feels like these first 7 months were packed with all sorts of endings and new beginnings we were not able to fully understand or steer into our own lives. We were given glimpses in what lays ahead while abrupt endings made us question the path we’re on.
Eclipses have already started to show their power since July 29th, with the Full Moon in Aquarius announcing the unravelling of a new set of energies (fire & air) in our lives, individually and collectively. For the next 18 months, Aquarius will govern our soul urge, whether we want it or not. This is not an easy energy for the inflated or hurt ego. This is freedom from all ties and the path of becoming…nobody better than the other one.
Now we might feel extremely dizzy, foggy and confused after the Pisces journey since January 2025, but there is not time for rest. Work must be done for the collective.
How far can you go beyond the confines of your self?
Aquarius North Node will want us to:
- uplift our own conscience to a higher level, and this also means the way we think and speak to ourselves and to others. Telepathy is also involved, yes.
- free our soul from expectations and old patterns or be prepared to be taken out from ecosystems and circumstances who we don’t resonate with anymore.
- reinvent the path we’re on (remember the energies you felt during February’s Eclipse and reflect on what was happening back then in your life)
- model a new reality in work and career. Pisces-Virgos (also the axis of work and employment) have dismantled our professional egos with a purpose. The purpose is now revealed, Aquarius wants us to move forward, embrace technology and humanitarian pursuits, find new ways of expression in the world and offer our best selves to bigger causes. You need to answer a different type of call for adventure.
- model another path in love or more precisely, to choose the right path in love. Some relationships will end because the attachment strategy and egos can no longer glue 2 souls who are only earning to be free again to grow. The relations that will be favoured are the ones ready to take it to the next level, with a leap of faith and courage like never before. True love is interdependence, the quality to grow with the other while being a witness to his/her ascension and evolution. Review my interview with Astrolov (here and below) to find our more on what’s expected in love from us.
- model a new relation with our inner child but also with the children around us. What is the joy of life and how are you protecting the Divine childhood in you and around you?
- cultivate courage instead of ego, and generosity instead of narcisist behaviours. It might start with you donating your free time to various causes or just plain generosity to the people that are less lucky than you. Find the role you need to have in the greater humanitarian vision.
The quality of time in August is quite intense…yes, I know you didn’t want to read this, but here we are and you know I’m honest. The Eclipses make this month a very important manifestation timeline for both what’s ended and also what’s beginning. But it’s just a timeframe we need to navigate with that unshakeable trust that life happens for us, and everything good is coming our way to hold us and teach us how to arrive in a better place.
Eclipses are pathways of acceleration and manifest a very unstable energy. Not even us, experienced astrologers can pinpoint exactly what will happen. We can see the general themes, yes, but the Eclipses are their own rulers. They always come in pairs and sometimes they speak with different energies, one is asking us to release and the other one to receive. Life is always like the sea tides, some things come and some things go.
The First Eclipse happens around August 12th and it’s a potent one as it is a total solar eclipse in the sign of Leo, close to the South Node in Leo. We currently have a huge concentration of Leo activation (Jupiter, Sun and South Node). This means there is a time for shake-ups and break-ups, but also for breakthroughs. The phenomenon will be visible in many areas in Europe, which also means European leaders might be under scrutiny and a possible change of leadership is in preparation. Watch out for Spain…I will not say more as this is not a message regarding global politics…
I am extremely positive about this Eclipse in Leo as this quietly marks the beginning of the 18 month soul journey in Aquarius-Leo nodes. So wherever you have 20-21 degree Leo (and Aquarius) in your birth chart (and progressive chart) and fixed sign placements (which mean Taurus, Scorpio), change is about to be accelerated in your life. Of course, we astrologers look at the entirety of the chart for predictions, but this is an essential glimpse in what the Eclipse energy might bring for you.
How you can take care of yourself during the Total Solar Eclipse.
1.Identify and release energetically and intentionally old patterns around visibility, self-worth, and creative expression. It’s about the ego release now, but also about identifying what’s true about your inner gifts to the world.
For the next 18 months, anything that’s true and valuable about you must be put in the service of greater causes, places, contexts, communities. You are ready to do this, and you are also requested to do this (by Saturn).
2.Eclipses are times when acceleration needs energy, it’s just like you see a rocket leaving for space. It needs the initial ignition to be powerful enough to rise. This means your energetic body is also releasing a lot of energy, and you need to be gentler with your resources during this time. Sleep more, go to fewer and less crowded places, spend time in nature (the sun and the sea are preferable right now), eat quality food (especially nutritious, fruits, citrus, honey, warm spices) and clean your energy as often as you can (with salt and long baths). Opt for gentler ways to move your body (walks, yoga, pilates, swimming). Maybe wear sun-kissed crystals like citrine, carnelian.
3.With Saturn retrograde stabilising and the Part of Fortune protecting the Solar Eclipse, expect plot twists with a BANG. And yes, you might be the plot twist in somebody else’s story. The project and career that you missed might come back. The trip that was cancelled might be happening after all. The soul urge to contribute to a creative endeavour is accelerated even more. Le coup the foudre relationship that was not in the cards at the beginning of this year might just be the thing that turns your life and routine upside down in an instance and you need to be brave to jump on the train even though the destination is not yet visible. Believe the best things are coming your way and put yourself in the energy of solar energy, happiness, love and generosity.
But there’s a trick here. And not everybody will see it. Saturn is Retrograde, which means the process requires a deep, inner work of maturity, responsibility and respect for the time it needs to unfold. So…listen to your inner authority, look beyond the flashy and decide what needs to be done.
This is not a time for the easy, this is a time for what’s needed. And you will be needed in places and spaces that are very different from what you might expect. Put yourself out there in the service of others and you will shine.
The 2nd Eclipse though is much more of a God-given closure. It wants to end the energies of the past 18 months that were defining the Axis Pisces-Virgo. Dismantling our inner structures and lives so that the next 18 months can create a new space inside our soul. The Eclipse is a partial lunar one, happening at around 4 degrees Pisces on August 28th, but standing right on top of one of the luckiest and most benefic fixed stars, Fomalhaut. You’ll be invited to leave behind a spiritual belief that confines you in a place your Soul doesn’t want to be anymore. And also…let an old dream die, your Soul wants new dreams now. The Eclipse is aspected positively by Chiron in Taurus and Mars in Cancer. A heart healing of some sorts will come your way, according to your own reality and context.
How you can take care of yourself during the Partial Lunar Eclipse.
1.Make a list or meditate on the past 18 months of your life. This is the time to understand the blessings you have received even in the toughest of the moments. It will feel like a soul release and also comforting for what’s closing. The energy is quite erratic and unpredictable as it involves both Mercury and Uranus speaking in a conversation of tension. Whatever closes now is a blessing and lets you enter the new phase of your life lighter. The Eclipse watched by Fomalhaut might give you a higher understanding of life and a better goal to reach for.
2.Try to eat less, I encourage you to even opt for total fasting during the day of the Eclipse. In this way, you make a clearer path towards the Divine and its messages for you. Go towards still water places. Release whatever grudges you might feel towards certain people in your life. Toxic feelings will only poison you.
Until September, my ladies, take care of your soul and heart.
