Release illusions to activate the essential dream!

On By Ka Malana - Fiestaestrellas.comIn Astrology38 Comments

Hello friends,

I’m writing to you about the Lunar eclipse event coming up on Sept 7, 2025, in Pisces. The places to view the eclipse are Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, not North or South Americas. Here’s the eclipse path from spaceandtelescope.com.

This eclipse is tied to the solar eclipse on Sept 21, also in Virgo/Pisces axis, but this time in Virgo at 29 degrees. The real theme that will come forward here is linked to the February Saturn/Neptune exact conjunction: February 20, 2026, at ‘0 Degree’ Aries. I’ve spoken about that in a previous post. Here are the dot points on the Saturn/Neptune conjunction:

  • Dream vs. Reality
  • Making dreams into Reality
  • Feeling forced to give up dreams by Saturn limitations
  • Uncertainty about what is fantasy and what is real
  • Saturnian discipline helping to parse out and work out Neptunian dreams and ideals: Vision to Form
  • Daydreams and escapes of fantasy— and Saturnian consequences!
  • New forms of artistic inspiration (Neptune) with different forms (Saturn)
  • Saturn/Neptune conjunct is asking: “What really is possible here?”

Here’s that chart for the Sept 21 eclipse that I’ll talk about more in a post that is closer to the date:

The reason why I think these eclipses, and especially this Sept 7 eclipse in Pisces, are linked to the Saturn/Neptune conjunction is because:

  1. This eclipse is immediately followed by the Aquarius eclipse in Februrary 2026— signaling the beginning of the end of the Virgo/Pisces series (It’s not the last one, but it’s the beginning of the new series, marked by Aquarius/Leo).
  2. This Sept 7 Lunar eclipse comes right on the heels of Saturn’s retrograde back into Pisces for a final pass (Sept 1.). Saturn originally entered Pisces on March 7, 2023 and transiting into Aries on May 24, 2025: leading to an ALMOST conjunction with Neptune. But since it retrograded back, it’s also not going to be re-entering Aries until February 13, 2026— just days before the great Neptune/Saturn exact conjunction. An exact conjunction means that the energies are potent and have matured!
  3. The Saturn/Neptune conjunction will happen in February while Neptune (the Modern Ruler or Pisces) is still its retrograde zone, after just have spending time in its original home: Pisces.
  4. Saturn in Pisces is going to be closely opposing the Solar Eclipse in Virgo on Sept 21, 2025 at the anaretic degree of Virgo 29. This is a very potent point. Saturn will be at 28 degree Pisces which is a pretty close/tight orb. Anything below 3 degrees has the strongest potency. The tighter the orb, the stronger the impact.

So, overall, there’s this very interesting story going on in the sky to help you to release illusions and sort out what is real. It might not be very easy (it might FEEL impossible), but it will be worth it. With Saturn’s influence, not much is easy; there’s often restrictions and redirection. You really tend to utilize your blood, sweat, and tears, when moving through life during intense Saturn transits.

So what is an essential dream? Why is that a part of your title?

The word essence means (https://etymologyworld.com/item/essence):

  • The fundamental nature or core characteristics of something
  • The concentrated or pure form of something

Etymologically it comes from “esse” the latin meaning “to be.” Inside of us is all of creation, the potential to make or create anything in our experience. That potential extends from our essence.

No matter what is going on in the world right now (and I know, it’s grim: war, politics at their worst, and the divisions and misinformation is up more than we would like), we still have a certain amount of time to enjoy whatever freedoms we have. It’s our freedom to create, to bond with one another, and to learn from our experiences and also to tie these experiences to the “bigger picture.” Neptune and Pisces are very spiritual. This symbolism is rich (and for some of us, it is more than symbolism) but for you, take it at whatever level is one that ‘works’ for you.

“

Notice we are each the architect of our own dreams. Every dream is unique. Some dreams reflect unfulfilled desires, repressed impulses, and incomplete experiences, or serve as a substitute for and pointer toward realities beyond them. The symbols we project in waking life are part of the story we weave for ourselves. Symbols we project into our experience are like ghosts. They offer insights into the true self by revealing our conditioned beliefs, how connected or disconnected we are to our heart and the Earth. We each have the power to rescript our symbols, shift energy we receive, decode and transmit to transform from the core.” —Liara Covert

I don’t know if I tied this message together well enough for you all. But, if you are feeling shaky and disconnected at times and other times *very* connected and then doubting that, it’s all normal. What you are experiencing is really in the stars. Each and every single person is going to experience it differently– some will think life is “just the same.” Our perception is really what matters, but I want to encourage you to connect yourself with a greater vision, magick and dream, one that really fills and fuels your soul. It’s here, and its available: AND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING can reduce the essence or make smaller the importance of your dream. So I ask you now: What can you let go of? What is standing in your way of realizing your own potential, right now? Virgo is all about the details. Those details are going to be completely unique to each one of you, but Virgo carefully crafts. Your craft in life is definitely tied to your essence. Like a kite in the sky, your kite is your craft (how it flies) but the essence of your kite is the WAY it connects with the unique weather pattern at any given moment. How will you build, fix, and fashion your kite?

Love you all, so much! Use the comments to reflect on anything I’ve written here.

With gratitude,

Ka

Freedom in Love, Love as Freedom

I just finished working with a client in the Entheos energy work that I do, and the moment opened up following it, with the opportunity to do some writing and sharing here. Right now the energy is so strong for liberation, freedom, and unwinding from the trappings of attachment, ego, and that which veils us from the reaches of Spirit. Today Neptune, planet of illusion and tricks of perception, retrogrades at the beginning of Aries, while Venus and Uranus echo a strong conjunction at the last degree of Taurus 29 (anaretic degree)/ beginning of Gemini. Traditionally this Neptune retrograde points to a time when we lift the veil and peer beyond it; seeing our delusions and addictions more clearly. It’s good for people to seek out therapy services and make honest progress towards overcoming their addictions.

On July 7, Uranus will begin its approximately 7 year long stay in Gemini. That same Gemini fueled Uranus will be in trine with Pluto in Aquarius for a while to come. Resultantly there’s much opportunity to change the way we communicate, and to free ourselves from out-dated concepts and constructs of mind. Underneath the labeling of the mind in terms of naming and conventions there exists a more pure consciousness. One without the trappings of past nor other mental overlays of experience, emotion, and memory. This is a very individual, airy dynamic, this “untouched consciousness.” The Taoists called it “Pu” or the uncarved block, to represent a natural, unforced nature of mind.

The pathway forward can be innovative and liberating, as yet unknown. Its roots run deep, as these changes require us to be deliberate and conscious around our choice for liberation. Our actions will have reverberations for a long time to come. Also, it might require several applications of our divine will to progress. Re-focus again and again into our purpose and marking our intention for liberation.

Change brings with it grief, almost always, because we cannot go back to the old ways–they are permanently severed. What matters is how we “choice forward.” There’s a lot of ways that the majority is not getting what it asked for. It doesn’t look at all like the Golden Age nor any new era of awakening. It looks a lot like the “same old,” old power, oligarchy and the governance of the few with the consolidated power at the top. I guarantee you that inside of you is the place and space where all the most profound changes are happening for this new era. Right now that Venus/Uranus conjunction is in a trine (easy flow/quick) energy with Pluto in Aquarius. This is not a simple day for America. It’s not even a simple celebration that you are either evading or celebrating–or captured in between a dynamic of both positions. If you are drawing from history, there’s a lot of inspiration around overcoming of obstacles, around coming up against powerful despots.

Each individual must choose what path to take into the woods that we are being shown. We are indeed in the woods, on our own journeys: separate but together. The only things that separates us is the way we conceive of and respond to the changes that are taking place. If we can really dial into our resourced place, today, and the days moving forward, it will help. Dial into your point of nourishment.

As you awaken with yourself on this path and journey into unknown lands, deep into making decisions you must make along the way, you will be asked to make it very clear to yourself and others: your purpose. Do not shy away from your inner clarity. Your inner clarity will be your guidebook, but it might even startle you at first. Spend some time journaling today and in the next several days around the following prompts:

1). What actions can I take that help me to explore my freedom today? tomorrow?

2). Where am I too sticky and too attached that is keeping me from seeing my options?

3). If I could embody one important value on this planet, what would I choose? How about now? And now?

Sending peace to all; May love always lead your way. May all beings be free from suffering.
