Full Harvest Moon & Lunar Eclipse: Manifestation and Self-Care Tips
As the Full Harvest Moon in Pisces approaches in September 2024, we’re also met with the intense energy of a partial eclipse, amplifying this lunar event even further. The combination of the Full Moon and the eclipse creates a powerful portal for transformation and release. Eclipses are known for bringing sudden shifts and revelations, making this the perfect time to let go of the old and welcome in the new.
What Makes the Harvest Moon & Eclipse So Special?
The Harvest Moon is the closest Full Moon to the Autumn Equinox, symbolising abundance and completion. It’s a time for reflecting on how far you’ve come, harvesting the fruits of your labour, and setting fresh intentions. But this year, the added eclipse supercharges these themes, shaking things up to push you into alignment with your highest self. In Pisces, a deeply intuitive and emotional sign, this Full Moon-Eclipse duo heightens our spiritual connection and intuition. It’s a moment to release outdated beliefs and tune into your soul’s deepest desires.
Take a moment to close your eyes and breathe deeply. What is one thing you’re ready to release during this transformative phase? Set an intention for the next few days to take aligned action toward this release.

Which Signs Will Feel It the Most?
The mutable signs—Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, and Sagittarius—are in for a powerful ride. Pisces and Virgo may feel the tension between emotional release and the desire for order, while Gemini and Sagittarius might experience the pull between internal growth and external shifts. This is a time for these signs to surrender to the changes the eclipse is bringing, trusting that what’s being cleared is making space for more aligned growth.
Here are some simple ways you can take care of yourself and connect with the Full Moon and Eclipse energy:
Emotional Release: Eclipses magnify the energy of release. Grab your journal and write down everything you’re ready to let go of. Burn or tear up the paper to symbolically free yourself of those emotions.
Ground Yourself: With such intense energy in the air, grounding is key. Meditation, nature walks, or gentle yoga can help keep you balanced. Stay connected to the Earth to move through any overwhelming emotions.
Water Ritual: Pisces is a water sign, and the element of water can help cleanse your energy. Take a relaxing bath and visualise the water washing away any emotional baggage.
Manifesting During the Full Moon & Eclipse
While eclipses aren’t traditionally associated with manifestation (since they focus on releasing), they do create space for new possibilities. After releasing what no longer serves you, spend time visualising your desires and where you want to go next. Use crystals like amethyst or clear quartz to enhance this process. These moments of cosmic energy shifts provide the perfect opportunity to tune into the vibrations of your future self.
