September 2025 Eclipse Season
The Fool ushers us into the September eclipse season of 2025. A wild card with his association to Uranus, we can expect the unexpected with sudden shifts and changes. Some favorable, some disruptive, but all change is helping us align with truth. Although the world around us may be uncertain, the Fool wants us to remember life is always uncertain, and despite this, he wants us to have fun and embrace the possibilities of life through the eyes of our inner child.
The Fool is pure potential. As a bit of a wild card influenced by Uranus, he promises nothing, but lets us know that anything and everything is possible. While he may bring sudden insights, unexpected or radical changes, and disruptions, his message is clear: *something new is beginning in our lives. Instead of fearing change, worrying about judgment, or clinging to the past, it is time to embrace a new you and a new way of life with an open heart and an open mind, allowing the truest and most authentic version of you to emerge. *
The Fool represents our inner child who embodies joy, lightheartedness, and a love for exploration. Each day offers the potential for magic and adventure, and he serves as a reminder that, despite the world's imperfections, we should approach each day with as much enthusiasm and joy as possible. We should strive not only to let go of the burdens of the world but also to free ourselves from personal limitations, past wounds, and outdated versions of character and its story. In doing so, we open ourselves to new ways of thinking, new ideas, and inspirations, embracing fresh starts and brand-new beginnings, even without any guarantees of what lies ahead.
This Fool is us embracing truth and clarity. Some truth is the nature of who we have become, but some situations or developments bring forth truth that may come as a shock or surprise to jolt us into a new way of thinking and new direction. Although disruptive at first, with truth and clarity we open the door to invite our purest most authentic selves forward and can experience freedom as we liberate from long-term chains of our past.
The Fool disregards perceived and actual limitations as he sees life through the eyes of a child... full of possibility. He thinks outside of the box, so he is good at being innovative to navigate potential obstacles or dangers. He travels lightly and walks gently on the earth, he does not get involved, attached, or caught up in things that could distract him from his journey (translation = stay out of drama, conflict, and the chaos of others and in the world around us... hop over and around any landmines or traps).
Just carrying tools he will need for the journey ahead, he leaves behind the heavy baggage of the past (material, emotional, relational, and situational) which only kept him weighed him down, held back, or chained to an old story.
Following the World card, which shows that he has graduated and completed a phase or huge lesson, he can now turn the page of a very long chapter. The Fool is currently shedding the final layer of old skin. This shedding may still take some time; however, our new stories start as we finally say goodbye to the old. Regardless, the Fool’s focus is on the road ahead.
Reminding us it is okay to take chances; he ignores the opinions, warnings, and criticism of others. Despite the fact he is ready to walk off a cliff, he knows he will be okay. Truth be told, the Fool is no Fool. He just plays one.
THE FOOL IS NO FOOL...
The Fool knows the world can be a scary place. He knows life does not come with guarantees, and it will forever bring challenges, hardships, the potential for failure, or even danger; but he consciously chooses not to let this influence him. Instead, Fool embraces the opposite side of fear…
With an open heart and mind, he embraces joy, excitement, adventure, magic, and endless possibility... leaving behind and disregarding limitations that keep him stuck at the start/ finish line. The Fool is aware that for new things to begin, something usually ends. For us, this may be a situation in our real world, an unhealthy layer of ourselves, a negative way of thinking, or a fairytale we have told ourselves to keep ourselves safe or stuck in a repeating movie.
THE MOST IMPORTANT MESSAGE OF THE FOOL:
is to not let fear prevent us from living. Fool encourages us to embrace the child within and let him or her guide the way through the big changes that are taking place both personally and collectively. He tells us to be aware of the potential traps, setbacks, or dangers that could lurk ahead, but also reminds us to stop letting them scare us into stagnation.
This card reminds us to have faith that things will work out as they should, and even if they do not, the Fool with his Uranus energy can reinvent himself over and over again. His trust of this process makes him fear not, allowing him to enjoy, have fun, and embrace the journey ahead without worry or concern of the things that could possibly go wrong or limit him… including judgement of others.
KEYWORDS:
freedom/liberation from long-term challenges or situations, a new you, play, bold choices, healthy risks, inner child, fearless abandon, follow your intuition/heart, ignore the static around you, new beginnings, new ideas & inspirations, fresh starts, new opportunities, taking a chance, letting your hair down, embracing possibility and wonder, being unapologetically you, taking everything with a grain of salt, travel, open-heart, authentic you.
INSIGHTS PERSONAL:
✨-The last 3 years have been extremely rough. For those who embrace change, the next 3 years can be riddled with opportunity. Be mindful that not ALL opportunities are good ones. The Fool can sometimes leap before he looks, so let your intuition guide you.
✨Some of us will be taking huge leaps in a new direction with our future somehow. The fool encourages us to ignore the judgement of others and follow our hearts (career, relationships, living arrangements, way of life, etc).
✨Some of us are landing new careers and jobs while others are creating a path of their own and finding ways to be self-employed. I think the Fool suggests the trend of many freeing up from corporate and becoming self-employed or independent contractors will continue. If it feels right, the Fool supports taking a risk.
✨Some are breaking free from old relationships and enjoying the freedom that comes with it.
Singles could be opening their hearts and taking a chance on someone new that they meet unexpectedly, while others are focused on being non-committal and just having fun… doing their own thing. If in a healthy relationship, this could express the need to have fun together and individually.
✨Having a new lease on life, socializing, taking adventures, trying to have fun despite hardships in our lives and in the craziness in our world.
✨Freedom from a long-term challenge or situation, healing...with Virgo influence this could be a health matter for some.
✨The Fool tells us we are birthing a new version of ourselves and of our lives. Embrace change.
✨New life: pregnancies!! (Especially with Jupiter in Cancer until next June)
✨Embracing who we are authentically.
✨Sudden travel or moves
✨Children may be a focus
✨I love this reading for the potential for addiction and self-sabotage recovery. Alternatively, if we make poor choices by "acting the fool" or continuing to entertain the underside of this energy, there could be serious consequences.
INSIGHTS COLLECTIVE:
✨Because the Fool walks a path of his own, now is probably not the time to be following the majority or crowd. The fool is an individualist. He is a leader. He is not afraid to be different, and unafraid to go his own way. He is inviting you to follow your own heart and lead yourself…. even if there is no guarantee of success. Remember… following some “fools” will lead you off the cliff.
✨Freedom/personal freedom will be a huge theme. Could be in relation to movement/travel/transportation, or freedom of self-expression (think censorship of some kind).
✨Fast changes, innovation, technology: some of this is progress, some of this could be dangerous if we jump before we think things through.
✨Earthquakes, shake ups, shocks, truths revealed. Some shocks and shake ups could be related to finance, health, and illusions or secrets.
✨Because the Fool is walking, I am encouraged many will start new health regimens. I also question if this is not again indicating that there may some type of issues with travel. Maybe air travel with the Uranus (Air) influence.
✨Increase in pregnancies/babies and children's themes
✨Rebellion: could present as a disregard of regulations/law/or other people, or more healthy acts of rebellion as in finding new ways to do things against the norms or expectations of the system.
✨Breaking away: The Fool likes to go his own way. We may see parts of society, countries, groups break away to do their own thing.
WARNING: The shadow side of the Fool is well, being a Fool. It is carelessness and reckless abandon. Rebel without a cause, and idiocy. Use a grounded approach to the Fool’s invitation and make sure you are acting within reason, recognizing limitations or the consequences for your actions including safety.
