Partial Solar Eclipse in Uttara Bhadrapada Nakshatra
29 March 2025
Partial Solar Eclipse in Uttara Bhadrapada Nakshatra, in the very heart of sidereal Pisces, will mark the culmination of this eclipse season, with impressive 6 planets aligned together in Pisces. Saturn will move into Pisces just hours after the eclipse. With 6 of the Navagrahas accumulated in Bhadrapada nakshatras, stars of Rudras, fierce aspects of Lord Shiva who represent forces of time, transformation and symbolic death, we all will be powerfully called towards inner transformation. With Sun and Moon perfectly aligned with Earth, and other planets joining, it is a powerful time for all of us to realign with our purpose and allow unnecessary desires and disappointments to burn in the fire of purification.
It’s incredibly significant that during this eclipse season both of the lunar nodes, Rahu and Ketu, dwell in the amsha of Goddess Cinnamasta in the D20 (Vimshamsha) chart of spiritual progress. Cinnamasta, the Goddess who beheads Herself and drinks Her own blood, while immersed in ecstatic dance, represents the notion of unlocking spiritual bliss within by beheading our ego and disconnecting for a moment from the narratives and stories of our mind. While Her image may seem gruesome to some, She represents this force of aliveness within us, which we all have access to, if we choose to drop awareness from our head to our bodies for a moment, and liberate ourselves from the dictatorship of the mind.
