These two events should not be seen in isolation but as parts of a single process: death, transition, and rebirth.<\/p>\n<h3>The Lunar Eclipse of September 7 \u2013 Symbolic death<\/h3>\n<p>The first eclipse takes place in <strong>Purva Bhadrapada nakshatra<\/strong>, a sector of the sky that speaks of radical transformation and detachment. Here, the Moon, eclipsed in conjunction with Rahu, represents a <strong>symbolic death<\/strong>: the closing of cycles, the unveiling of hidden patterns, and the necessity of letting go of what no longer serves.<\/p>\n<p>It is a moment when old emotions and karmas rise to be recognized and purified. Like a cosmic ritual, this eclipse invites us to walk through inner darkness and prepare the ground for something new.<\/p>\n<h3>The interval between the eclipses \u2013 The bardo<\/h3>\n<p>The 14 days separating the two eclipses can be seen as a <strong>bardo<\/strong>, an intermediate state comparable to the period described in Tibetan traditions as the passage between death and rebirth.<\/p>\n<p>It is a time when nothing feels fully defined: old structures have already collapsed, but the new has not yet emerged. In this suspended space, we are called to cultivate silence, mindfulness, and inner clarity while avoiding hasty decisions.<\/p>\n<h3>The Solar Eclipse of September 21 \u2013 The rebirth<\/h3>\n<p>The second eclipse occurs in <strong>Uttara Phalguni nakshatra<\/strong>, in the sign of Virgo. Here the energy is one of reconstruction, commitment, and renewal. This is the time of <strong>spiritual rebirth<\/strong>: an opportunity to reorganize life according to higher principles, renew inner vows, and plant the seeds of new projects.<\/p>\n<p>If the first eclipse symbolized death and detachment, this solar eclipse represents the vital force returning, bringing clarity, discipline, and the possibility of a new beginning.<\/p>\n<h3>Duration of the effects<\/h3>\n<p>In Indian astrology, the effects of an eclipse can last up to <strong>three months after the event<\/strong>. This means that the process of death, transition, and rebirth symbolized by September 2025 will continue to reverberate until December, influencing our choices and emotional states.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, since the eclipses will be <strong>visible in Italy<\/strong>, their effects will be even stronger there. Astrological tradition teaches that an eclipse visible in a specific region imprints its energies more intensely in that place, shaping both the collective and individual fields.<\/p>\n<h3>Ayurvedic care<\/h3>\n<p>According to Ayurvedic tradition, eclipses can affect the flow of <strong>pr\u0101\u1e47a<\/strong>. Simple measures can help maintain balance:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Vata:<\/strong> oil massages and avoiding unnecessary travel.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pitta:<\/strong> light and refreshing diet, along with calming breathing practices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kapha:<\/strong> light foods and moderate exercise.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Spiritual protection \u2013 Recommended mantras<\/h3>\n<p>During eclipses, the recitation of mantras is advised to strengthen the mind and dissolve obstacles. Two particularly powerful mantras are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mar\u012bci (OM MARITSE MAM SOHA)<\/strong> \u2013 for protection against confusion, illusions, and obstacles.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Black Ma\u00f1ju\u015br\u012b (OM AH RA PA TSA NA DHI HUM)<\/strong> \u2013 for mental clarity, cutting through ignorance, and overcoming dark forces.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The eclipses of September are not merely celestial phenomena but true cosmic rituals of transformation. They invite us to die symbolically to what no longer serves, cross the bardo of the unknown, and be reborn aligned with a clearer and deeper consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>May we live this cycle with courage, wisdom, and openness, remembering that every shadow, when embraced, turns into light. \u2728<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Guilherme Fortunato Bitencourt<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Eclipses of September 2025 Symbolic death, bardo, and spiritual rebirth September 2025 brings two eclipses of great significance: the lunar eclipse on September 7 and the solar eclipse on September 21.
