2025 astrological key dates: eclipses

Eclipses tend to bring power outages, power surges, and sometimes both. They occur when a New or Full Moon aligns with one of the nodes of the Moon, which are the two points in space where the Moon’s orbit around Earth intersects with the ecliptic (that is, the path the Sun traces in the sky from the perspective of us Earthlings). There is a North Node and a South Node, and each one has different astrological attributes: The North Node denotes increase and hunger, while the South Node represents release and letting go. To help you prepare for and reflect on these pivotal moments, we’ve compiled a list of all the eclipses in 2025, along with their key themes.
