A Blood Moon occurs during a total lunar eclipse, when the Earth moves between the Sun and the Moon. The Earth’s shadow casts a red hue on the Moon, creating the appearance of a “Blood Moon.” Spiritually, Blood Moons are seen as portals of karmic release, endings, and new beginnings.

There’s something otherworldly about stepping outside on a clear night and seeing the Moon painted in shades of copper and crimson. Some call it mystical. Others call it ominous. But in truth, a Blood Moon is simply the visible effect of a total lunar eclipse — when Earth blocks sunlight from reaching the Moon, refracting only red light across its surface.

Yet if you’ve ever felt a Blood Moon, you know it’s more than just astronomy. These rare eclipses often bring heightened emotions, endings, and a sense that life is shifting beneath the surface. Spiritually, they’re known as moments of karmic completion — times when cycles dissolve and new timelines quietly begin.

In this post, we’ll explore what a Blood Moon really is, why the September 2025 Pisces Lunar Eclipse is so powerful, and five spiritual meanings you can carry with you through this season.

And if you’d like to go even deeper, I’ve created a guided Pisces Blood Moon Meditation to support you in releasing karmic cycles and reconnecting with your Soul’s wisdom. You’ll find it embedded below in both video (YouTube) and audio (Spotify) formats, so you can choose the experience that best supports you.

What Is a Blood Moon?

Scientifically, a Blood Moon is another name for a total lunar eclipse. It happens when:

1. The Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon.
2. Instead of going completely dark, the Moon glows red because Earth’s atmosphere bends and scatters sunlight.
3. The longer wavelengths of light (reds and oranges) filter through, casting the Moon in its distinctive hue.

👉 So yes: every Blood Moon is a total lunar eclipse.

But spiritually, a Blood Moon is more than a sky event. For thousands of years, cultures across the world have associated lunar eclipses with prophecy, endings, and transformation. Today, many of us experience them as portals of release — moments when shadow and light reveal what’s ready to be completed.

Why the September 2025 Blood Moon Is Special

On September 7, 2025, we’ll experience a Total Lunar Eclipse in Pisces — also known as the Pisces Blood Moon.

Here’s what makes it unique:

• Pisces Energy 🌊 → Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac , symbolizing compassion, completion, and the dissolving of boundaries. A Pisces eclipse amplifies endings, healing, and spiritual surrender.
• Eclipse Season ⚡ → Eclipses arrive in pairs. Just weeks after this Blood Moon, we’ll enter a Solar Eclipse in Virgo (September 21). Together, they form a cosmic reset — endings first, then beginnings.
• Karmic Release ⛓️‍💥 → This Pisces eclipse encourages you to release outdated patterns, close karmic cycles, and rewire your nervous system so it feels safe to let go.

5 Spiritual Meanings of the Pisces Blood Moon 🩸🌕

1. Karmic Cycles Come to Completion

Eclipses in Pisces often feel like a soft unraveling. You may notice old cycles rising to the surface — not to haunt you, but to be dissolved. Spiritually, this is a time to update Soul Contracts and release what no longer belongs in your field.

2. Emotional Healing Is Amplified

Pisces is a water sign, and water holds memory. Under this eclipse, emotions may surge, but they also carry the potential to wash away stored pain. Think of it as an emotional cleanse — a reset for your nervous system.

3. The Quantum Field Opens Wide

Eclipses are liminal spaces, and Pisces expands imagination. In meditation, this becomes a doorway into the quantum field — where multiple timelines exist, and you’re invited to choose differently.

4. Shadow and Light Are Revealed Together

A Blood Moon casts the Moon in both shadow and glow. Spiritually, it mirrors our inner process: acknowledging what’s been hidden, while allowing light to illuminate the truth.

5. A Reset for Your Soul’s Journey

Above all, this eclipse offers space for upcoming renewal. It’s a moment to pause, reset, and trust that endings are making way for extraordinary new beginnings.

How to Work with the Pisces Blood Moon

You don’t need to do anything elaborate. Eclipse energy is already powerful — but meeting it with intention changes everything. Here are a few simple ways:

• Journal about the cycles you’re ready to complete.
• Breathe and ground into your body; remind your nervous system it’s safe to release.
• Meditate to connect with your Higher Self and guides.

💖 A Personal Note

Eclipse seasons have always felt like Soul-quakes for me — tender, revealing, and sometimes uncomfortable. But I’ve also come to see them as some of the most sacred opportunities to let go of what’s heavy and step into more of who I truly am.

If you’re feeling that same intensity, please know you’re not alone in it. We’re walking through this together, and I’m honored to hold this space for you.

May this Blood Moon remind you of your strength, your softness, and your infinite capacity to begin again.

I LOVE YOU! - Crystal
