August brings a period of eclipses that is especially intense. After the Leo solar eclipse on August 12, the partial lunar eclipse in Pisces arrives, which will occur during the night of August 27 and the early hours of August 28.
For astrologer Mariángeles Palacios, this period acts as an accelerator of processes and can mobilize issues related to identity, emotions and what needs to be transformed.
Partial Lunar Eclipse in Pisces: What Energy It Brings
The solar eclipse in Leo on August 12 mobilized themes linked to identity, authenticity, creativity, and personal value.
According to Nageles, it also questioned how much we depend on external approval versus what we feel internally or consider fair.
The partial lunar eclipse in Pisces on August 27-28 will mark the closing of this portal and shift the focus elsewhere: intuition, sensitivity, forgiveness, and emotional cleansing.
But there is an especially important point for the astrologer: forgiveness will be connected, mainly, with forgiving ourselves.
A Period That Accelerates Processes
For Mariángeles Palacios, eclipses function as an acceleration of destiny. They demand gradual changes, force definitions, and can bring to light truths that had remained hidden for a long time.
In this case, the Leo-Pisces axis implies a movement between two energies: on the one hand, self-imposed demands and the search for recognition associated with Leo; on the other, the surrender, mental rest, and the spiritual healing proposed by Pisces.
“Pisces will ask us most to forgive ourselves as well,” explains the astrologer.
That forgiveness may be related to past mistakes or decisions, whether with ourselves or with others. But, especially, to the need to stop punishing ourselves for what has already happened.
That is why Nageles recommends not forcing decisions during this eclipse.
The Yeses of the Pisces Lunar Eclipse
According to astrologer Mariángeles Palacios, this energy invites lowering the level of control and allowing the processes to run their course.
- Letting go of control
The main recommendation is to let things flow. Accept the changes that appear without opposing too much resistance and allow things to find their own path.
- Rest and sleep more
The Pisces energy can generate fatigue, so mental rest becomes fundamental.
Sleeping more, resting, and giving the body the chance to recover energy are some of the keys Nageles proposes to get through this period.
- Write down your emotions
Another recommended tool is to put in writing what we feel.
Fears, frustrations, and dreams can be poured onto a page to release emotions that often remain hidden. For the astrologer, doing so can help ease internal pains.
- Seek moments of solitude
Treating yourself to moments alone can also be positive during this stage. The aim is to listen to your own intuition and better understand your feelings.
Mariángeles also recommends lighting sandalwood incense and handing that negative energy over to God, for those who believe in Him, as a way to accompany healing processes and the mending of pains that may come from a long time ago.
- Drink plenty of water
Among her recommendations there is also a very concrete one: drinking a lot of water.
The Don’ts: What to Avoid During the Eclipse
Just as there are actions that can accompany this period, Nageles also marks a few things that would be better to avoid while this energy lasts.
- Do not make impulsive decisions
The astrologer recommends not acting from the intensity of the moment. In particular, she discourages making drastic decisions such as quitting a job or generating unnecessary conflicts.
The suggestion is to wait until the intensity of this astral tendency subsides before making important decisions.
- Avoid starting major projects
She also recommends waiting before starting big projects, launching businesses, or signing contracts under this energy.
The key, again, is not to force timing and to let situations unfold.
- Avoid getting into arguments
During this period there may be heightened sensitivity. Therefore, Nageles advises avoiding debates and confrontations.
“A withdrawal is better than a frontal clash,” states the astrologer, as the outcome of a confrontation could be negative.
The Key: Let It Flow
For Mariángeles Palacios, the concept that sums up this eclipse is clear: let it flow.
Not trying to control or direct an energy that can feel unpredictable, but lowering the pace, resting, listening to what happens inside, and allowing the processes to settle.
The lunar eclipse in Pisces thus arrives as a moment to look inward, let go of what cannot be modified and, above all, begin practicing something that may be much harder than it seems: forgiving ourselves.
