The New Moon Solar Eclipse arrives on September 21st at 29 degrees of Virgo. The 29th degree is known as the degree of soul growth, it also tends to bring endings and the falling away of things that are no longer serving our highest purpose.
While Solar Eclipses are powerful times to put our intentions out into the Universe, they can mess with our energy levels and bring some upheaval into our lives. Sometimes we need to let the dust settle before we know where we stand and how we wish to proceed.
You can get your full astrology forecast for the Virgo Solar Eclipse here, but if you are looking for a ritual to help work with these energies, you have come to the right place!
This ritual is designed to keep you in harmony with your body, mind, and soul. It is a simple, yet effective ritual to ease into the energies we are experiencing. I hope you enjoy it!
Virgo New Moon Solar Eclipse Ritual
- Aura cleansing tool of choice
- Comfy place to lie down with blankets/pillow
- Timer
- Soul Soothing Meditation
- Your favorite crystal (or piece of jewelry)
- Pen and paper
Directions:
1.) Start this ritual by cleansing your aura and then your surroundings. As you cleanse your aura and space, recite the following –
“I cleanse away the heavy pains; I cleanse away the past. I cleanse away all that keeps me trapped in the dark. I feel lighter now; my spirit is free; I connect with the love that lives within me. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
2.) Light a candle if you like. Lay down on the floor in a comfy position. Keep yourself warm with blankets and use a pillow under your head or knees if you wish.
3.) Place your crystal on top of your third eye, belly, or heart center- use your intuition to guide you.
4.) Listen to the Soul Soothing meditation. This 10-minute meditation will help get you into a state of relaxation so you can integrate the rest of the ritual with ease.
Have your pen and paper nearby for later.
(Note: during the meditation, you will be asked to put your head back, know you can do this to whatever degree is most comfortable for you. Even just tilting your chin slightly back is fine. Once you are done with the exercise, you can return your head to normal position- just do whatever is most comfortable.)
5.) After your meditation, take your pen and paper and choose one of the following journal prompts. Set your timer for 20-30 minutes and start writing whatever flows.
- “Ways I can return to wholeness…”
- “I bring acceptance to…”
- “My Spirit Guides want me to know…”
6.) After the timer has ended, read back over what you have written, or reflect on how you are currently feeling. If you have received some clarity, think about some actions you can take in the coming months.
7.) Now, take your crystal and holding it in your hands, whisper a wish into it. Inhale, and imagine you are blowing the wish into the crystal using the power of your exhale. Sleep with the crystal next to you, meditate with it, or carry it with you for the next three days.
Solar Eclipse Blessings!
