From my friend Elliot:
LUNAR ECLIPSE IN AQUARIUS 🔱 August 27-28, 2026 The Ketu eclipse is where we are forced to let go, and the Rāhu eclipse is where we are pulled deeper into worldly experience.
Tonight there is a very deep, partial lunar eclipse of the Moon with Rāhu: about 96% of the Moon’s disk enters Earth’s umbra at the height of the eclipse.
What have you been unable or unwilling to see about the condition of your mind?
The eclipse occurs at 10°41' Aquarius in the constellation Śatabhiṣā. Its name means “100 healers” or “100 medicines”. Its ruling deity is Varuṇa, the force of natural order and divine law. Varuṇa is also the keeper of boundaries, oaths, and the unseen order of secret cults, spies, and saboteurs.
Right now you may feel that you have tried 100+ methods in attempt to fix a problem, but just because there are 100+ attempts does not mean you have succeeded. It simply means Rāhu is pulling you deeper into the experience.
Śatabhiṣā is profoundly Rāhu-like, and because this is a Rāhu eclipse, the themes of what is hidden beneath appearances, isolation, investigation, diagnosis, breaking through conventional explanations, unconventional knowledge, technology and systems, exposure of concealed information, and, most importantly: healing through confronting what has been suppressed, will take the forefront of your mental focus right now.
Looking deeper, the eclipse occurs in the 2nd pada of Śatabhiṣā in Capricorn navāṁśa. Here Capricorn navāṁśa is the support system and structure of divine law, but it is also the graveyard where those who challenge it go to be punished. Śatabhiṣā's Capricorn navāṃśa creates distance through punishment, but it doesn't necessarily sever ties completely.
This is about letting go of old, dead weight. Its about taking space to straighten things out and get things in order. The full Moon here can feel quite stern, solemn, and serious. It's time to ask yourself: what structures of law and order have you psychologically committed to, and are they still capable of supporting you?
