Where Are You Lying to Yourself?

We’re entering the final eclipse in the Pisces-Virgo eclipse series that began in September 2024. This week invites us to look back at what has been refined, released, and reshaped over the past two years—and to become honest about what still needs to change. With Crow reversed and Wild Boar, the message is powerful: Where are you lying to yourself? Where are you avoiding what you know is true? And where are you allowing fear, old beliefs, or past patterns to keep you from moving forward? This is a week of confrontation—but not confrontation for the sake of conflict. It’s about confronting the parts of ourselves that keep us small or stuck, reclaiming our courage, and taking responsibility for what we are creating. As we meet this final Pisces eclipse, we’re being asked to consider what we’re dreaming, what we’re avoiding, and whether the way we’re showing up to our lives is actually supporting the reality we want to create. In this episode: * The final Pisces eclipse and the closing of a two-year eclipse cycle * What the past two years have refined or reshaped in your life * Crow reversed and the invitation to stop lying to yourself * Wild Boar returning with the medicine of confrontation * Confronting fear, old beliefs, and the patterns that keep you stuck * Radical self-responsibility and the paradox of being both creator and participant in your life * Dreaming bigger and moving beyond Pisces’ tendencies toward avoidance and illusion * Allowing energy to release where something needs to implode * How to meet this final eclipse with honesty, courage, and openness Reflections for the week: * Where are you lying to yourself? * What are you avoiding confronting? * What might become possible if you stopped holding yourself back?
