Lunar Nodes Enter Pisces-Virgo Axis on Jan 11th 2025: What It Means for You

Re-Focus. Remind Yourself of Your True Spiritual Nature. Follow Your Joy. Trust in the Process. Make Your Dreams Come True.

Personal Transformation

As we all continue to press on with our lives because that’s the natural flow of things and we want to make the most out of our time on Earth, it’s easy to turn our minds away from spirituality, creativity and self-care. This transit focuses heavily on these themes to help us get back into proper balance and remember that we’re Souls having a temporary human experience.

During this transit, I feel strongly that many of us — especially those who are spiritually inclined to begin with — will be prompted to dwell more on what objectives we may have incarnated with as a part of our Soul’s pre-birth plan and what we can do now to further our enlightenment and raise our vibration. Caring for, and nurturing, yourself is a natural part of this process because it’s far harder to soul search and heal when you’re too busy to stop or you’re feeling too stressed.

During this shift, you may find, as if by magic, that you have more time to work on these areas of your life. Because it’s just the right time. I sense that a great number of people will do a lot of soul searching, spiritual questioning and healing work this summer in particular while the days are so much longer and bathed in sunlight. Sunlight alone is very spiritually cleansing.

Interestingly, a lot of people around me seem to be discovering alternative forms of healing and making an effort to meditate more. Spiritual response therapy, QHHT, Reiki, past life regression, hypnosis, crystal healing, and other alternative forms of healing could be explored or undertaken more thoroughly as a part of your healing journey. Of course, alternative healing isn’t for everyone so CBT, or just good old psychotherapy, may work wonders instead! If a particular healing modality has helped you a lot, then perhaps you will choose to work as that type of healer yourself. A friend of mine who found Reiki healing very helpful after her divorce and is now studying to become a Reiki practitioner herself!

Focusing a lot more on spirituality and healing means that we often naturally focus away from the small details in life that often don’t matter. Small details — a strong Virgo theme — can upset us and prevent us for remembering that it’s ultimately the bigger picture that matters. Not a passing passive-aggressive comment made by someone at work nor a petty slight or clashing opinion.

Being surrounded by nature is always healing thanks to the soothing negative ions nature produces and the wonderful stillness and sheer beauty of it. During this period, you may find that being in nature feels especially healing, or somehow, you’ll be made more aware of just how soothing and re-balancing being in it is. You might feel drawn to working with natural materials via activities like gardening, pottery making, wreaths making, and so on. Perhaps you might begin to explore the idea of setting up a business that somehow involves nature or natural materials, for instance, herbal tea production.

Rigid systems and stressful careers are clearly making their way out of the door. This has been happening since the pandemic of 2020 when many people started working from home — some of them full-time. This inadvertently helped us to shift to a new lifestyle — no more long train rides or drives to work! No more waking up hours earlier to waste getting to work! No more having to tolerate unpleasant colleagues, clients, or bosses in person! For many, it was a huge relief and it showed us that a refreshingly new way of life was indeed possible. People had more time to rest, sleep, create healthy meals, groom themselves, iron out personal issues, and so on. 

This period, I think, will see more of this. Even those whose schedules are set in stone will experience more flexible schedules one way or another. Creatures of habit — especially earth dominant folk — may find this tricky to accommodate but they will, in all likelihood, be very grateful for it later once they personally experience how it benefits them (if they haven’t already). Labor laws may shift as well as economic models. For instance, some countries already have a four day work week in place. Others have trialed a four day work week and found it to increase productivity rather than reduce it.

Considering all this, perhaps you’ll feel compelled to get a new job, start a new career, or build a business of your own because this spiritually focused period reminds us, as I mentioned earlier, that life is short and it shouldn’t be viewed as one long, tedious drag. More and more of us are waking up to the realization that we came here to freely express our uniqueness and live life on our own terms. There’s a great deal of beauty in feeling free to be your unique self and do everyday life on your own terms. Open yourself up to new possibilities, follow your joy and trust that you will be lead to success if what you are working on is truly your passion. And then you can show others that it can indeed be done! That is spiritual work right there! Your Higher Self wants you to live a calm, joy-filled life and remember that your guides and angels always have your back.

People with harsh Virgo energy could also exit your life. For instance, my family has suffered a very difficult Virgo neighbour but now, finally, after two decades, that neighbor has listed their property for sale, which was unexpected. On the flip side, new Piscean energy may enter or re-enter your life. For instance, more time may become available to allow you to focus on creative pursuits like painting, singing or journalling. Mystical or occult activities like tarot card reading and scrying may come to the forefront of your mind, or your passion for them may reignite at some point during this nodal shift. 

Whatever you choose to include in your life during this time, you’ll very likely find that you just go with the flow more without much mental effort. Positively oriented Pisces type people may also become more prevalent in your life. Perfectionism will also diminish. To use a personal example, it took me about a year longer to get this website online due to crippling perfectionism — I’ve got both Mercury and Venus in Virgo in my chart. I’ve been my absolute worst critic most of my life but recently, with the help of this transit, I feel far more confident about the quality of my interpretations and I’m happy to just get them out there. You can never please everyone so you really shouldn’t exhaust yourself by aiming to!

You may want to distance yourself more from politics and fast paced places and enjoy peaceful environments instead. One of my friends has just moved from fast-paced London, where there’s probably too much action and a lot of political division, to the Welsh countryside where her new neighbors are sheep. An American friend of mine is starting a bath bomb business so she’s immersed herself in making cleverly designed bath bombs from the comfort of her little kitchen. I can imagine her now: soaps and powders and brilliant dyes and sketches everywhere. The window open with a warm breeze flowing through it and an interesting audio book (probably one by Dolores Cannon) playing in the background as she’s working… Lovely!

Societal Transformation

Mental health is thankfully being taken a lot more seriously these days and I think the trend will continue and possibly accelerate during this period. People are taking their overall well-being a lot more seriously and a lot more conversations are taking place around it. Institutions like schools and colleges and workplaces could see a major boost in mental health awareness over time. Rather than emotional well-being being seen as snowflake concern and dismissed, it’ll instead be taken more seriously.

People are also acting more in alignment with their true selves by sticking to their principles. If a job, or business, or whatever, feels unethical or somehow wrong, people will happily pass it up. I sense that ‘selling your soul’ by behaving in an immoral way or supporting immoral business practice or corrupt systems etc just isn’t what people are prepared to do much anymore and I think this nodal shift will provide a further hefty blow to the old ways of doing life.

Of course, we’re a bit mixed up politically in the West at the moment. There’s a great deal of division; you’re either on this side or that side. Society dictates that you need to pick a side. You can’t be on both and you certainly can’t be on neither. The left and right have probably never been so far apart and I think this can be very confusing as beliefs, norms and values are clashing very hard right now. Neither side can understand the other. Confusion is a Piscean theme and so we may carry on experiencing it for a while yet. But I think that whether you’re on the left or the right, listening more to what the ‘other side’ thinks, wants and needs may help us as a species to slowly bridge the massive gap that has somehow formed between us. If you’re in the middle you may want to listen more to both what both sides think to expand your awareness of multiple different perspectives.

AI is clearly developing rapidly and I think it’ll go at rocket speed once Uranus (the planet of innovation) moves into Gemini (the sign of communication and technology) on July 7th 2025. So much so that some professionals in the field think that it’s become sentient already. I think that whatever stage it’s at now — or will be in a few years’ time — a lot more discussions around ethical use will take place during this especially spiritual nodal shift. It’s wonderful in so many ways and it may completely transform healthcare — perhaps in ways that we can’t even imagine at the moment, but there are clearly some areas which are worrying some groups of people like artists, musicians and writers. To be honest, it’s even concerning for me! Using AI in a fairer way so as not to eliminate the beauty of, and need for, human creativity might be something we’ll be looking into a lot more and possibly — or hopefully — taking action on.

By July 2026, as a result of Neptune moving into Aries, Uranus moving into Gemini, and the lunar nodes shifting into the Pisces-Virgo axis, we could see a Western society that is far more intuitive, emotionally aware, and spiritually awake but part of a new era also means a period of adaptation which could include things like societal push-back, inflation or a shift in global markets. I think there will be some challenges but I’m confident that we will come out of these transits happier and stronger as individuals and as a society. Just brace yourself for some bumps along the way!
