Eclipse Season 2024

Gird your loins, fam! The Solar Eclipse in Aries rises on April 9th, 2024 during the wee hours of the morning.
Have a read of our guide of this fiery lunar occurrence.
What is an eclipse?
Let’s delve into what the hell we’re dealing with here.
Eclipses are dynamic cosmic events that activate the lunar nodes. Since the south and north nodes, often referred to as the Nodes of Fate, impact our karmic pathway (AKA our destiny), naturally, this means that the eclipse is going to send ripples down to earth and cause interesting events.
Many astrologers refer to eclipses as “cosmic wake-up calls”. Keep that in mind as you read on.

What is Eclipse Season?
Eclipse Season is a one-month period in which Eclipses hit, sparking all kinds of energies on earth. Each year, there are between three and seven eclipses, which often occur in clusters.
What happens during Eclipse Season?
Eclipses spark major changes in the area of your life where that particular eclipse is occurring. That’s why some years our primary focus will be on relationships, while other years we’re all about werk, werk, werk.
Eclipses tend to speed things up and steer you to the direction you wanna go at a faster pace. They can also cause wacky-ass shit to occur, which is why we must be vigilant during this time.
What’s the difference between a Lunar Eclipse and a Solar Eclipse?
Solar Eclipses kickstart new beginnings and bring forth unexpected opportunities. But on the flip side, they can also affect our relationships with others. So beware of how you’re communicating during this time.
For many people, Solar Eclipses are when we realise we need more than what we’re currently receiving.
Meanwhile Lunar Eclipses are a time of reflection and realisation. During this time, we will have many epiphanies that will help us to understand WTF is going on.
The problem is, when we look in the mirror and realise what’s really happening, we may not always like what we see. Therein lies the trickiness of Eclipse Season.
With that said, by seeing things for how they really are, at least we can now begin the process of acceptance and moving on. Use this time to release neggo energy and bad vibes.
Does the eclipse impact my dreams?
Oh yeah, mate!
Have you been having cooked dreams lately? Maybe even nightmares?
This is because the eclipse has unlocked the gateway to the spiritual realm and all kinds of messages are coming to you from the universe.
Never ignore your dreams, especially the bonkers ones and especially if they’re recurring.
When we dream, we have the ability to tap into our innate psychic abilities and so we receive divine messages that we’re meant to analyse.
These interpretations could provide the answers to your IRL issues and maybe even predict upcoming events.
What should I avoid doing during Eclipse Season 2024?
Charge your crystals or manifest: Do not, I repeat, DO NOT manifest or charge shit during the evenings of the Eclipses.
Why? Well, because Eclipse energy is erratic, chaotic and unpredictable, and you absolutely do not want to draw those vibes in or allow your precious crystals to absorb its harshness. May as well bathe ’em in battery acid.
Instead of manifesting, charging and empowering, this is a time to cleanse, ground, and centre yourself and release neggo energy and bad vibes (which is alllllll around right now, lemme tell ya).
Save those positive affirmations and manifestations for when the Eclipse’s erratic energy has dispersed.
Tell your secrets to untrustworthy folks: Eclipses also have a way of bringing things to the surface that you’d hoped had stayed buried, so be careful of unwanted tea being spilled. Double check all texts, edit yourself before speaking, be careful who you tell your secrets to, etc etc.
Cast rituals: Here’s a bunch of rituals that’ll come in handy during this time!
