Cosmic Fuego: Navigating September's Dual Eclipses
Freebie: Full Moon Release Prayer
The cosmic forces of September are stirring, bringing us two powerful eclipses that serve as portals for profound transformation. This month isn't just about endings and beginnings—it's a sacred invitation to align your daily practices with your deepest healing and to trust the wisdom that already lives within you.
As we journey through the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces on September 7-8, we're called to release what's been weighing us down—the illusions, the emotional baggage, the patterns of self-sacrifice that drain our energy. This watery eclipse creates the perfect conditions for surrender, asking us to reflect on what began six months ago and how those seeds have grown into their full expression. Through ritual and intention, we can harness this eclipse energy to dissolve what no longer serves our highest good, making space for something more aligned with our authentic nature.
The Solar Eclipse in Virgo on September 21st shifts our focus to the practical aspects of healing—the daily rituals that ground us, the boundaries that protect our energy, and the mindful service that connects us to purpose. Virgo medicine reminds us that transformation happens through small, consistent actions rather than grand gestures. This eclipse opens pathways for establishing new routines that honor our bodies and set appropriate boundaries, teaching us that structure can be sacred when it supports our wellbeing.
The magic of September lies in finding balance between these seemingly opposite energies—having one foot firmly planted in Virgo's practical earth while allowing the other to dance in Pisces' mystical waters. Can you create structure without becoming rigid? Can you surrender without sacrificing yourself? This dance between earth and ocean is where true healing happens.
During this potent time, notice where your body is whispering (or shouting) messages about what needs attention. Pay attention to ancestral patterns around health, work, and self-sacrifice that may be influencing your choices. Remember that your worth is not measured by how much you do for others—this eclipse season asks you to reclaim your power by letting go of what's not yours to carry.
Join me in embracing these cosmic resets with ritual, reflection, and community support. Whether through cleansing practices like limpias, journaling to track your journey, or meditation to calm your nervous system, there are many ways to work consciously with this transformative energy. Together, we can release what no longer serves, realign with our authentic selves, and step more fully into our power and purpose.

Hi Ay Mijita. Este mes es Cosmic Fuego two eclipses back-to-back. September nos trae estos eclipses poderosos en Virgo. This month isn't just about endings and beginnings. It's about aligning your daily rituals, healing your nervous system and trusting your inner wisdom. First, a full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 7th through 8th. Then a solar eclipse in Virgo on September 21st. This month, we're invited to release, surrender and then realign our daily lives with healing and purpose, not to fear these eclipses, because they're portals realigning us with our destiny. So I decided to drop this bonus episode to gain clarity on where to focus your energy this month of September and some practical and spiritual guidance and ways to receive deeper support for you, on ways I can provide. So welcome on this journey for this eclipse, on what to release, what to embrace and how to ride these waves with ritual and intention. Now let's kick it off with the full moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 7th through 8th. The energy is nostalgic and a little bit yearning. Some of the common themes are endings, surrender, emotional release, compassion, illusions dissolving, and so this Pisces energy asks us to let go of escapism, martyrdom, confusion and embrace trust and faith. So I would ask you, because every six months, the lunar eclipse happens and eclipses happen, and so reflect back on six months ago, back on six months ago what began in March 2025. And that is probably coming full circle now.
Dora:I know, for me I was focused on, like my self-worth, my body. That's when I really started kicking off my health journey, and now I'm actually encountering a medical diagnosis. That it has been challenging for me, and so right now, it's really causing me to reprioritize myself and my health and surrender to this process of not knowing right, taking it step by step, taking the next doctor appointment and seeing what the results are, and it's really causing me to have compassion for myself, and I'm a very firm believer that God works in mysterious ways Y Dios sabe lo que hace. And so, for me, watching God work through me in this way, especially touching the lives of those around me, has been a very humbling experience, and so it does get me teary-eyed because I have very optimistic outlook on life, y siempre vivió la vida como quiero, right Like, hay que vivir el presente, hay que vivir el momento, and so all these illusions and delusions that I had for myself and my future is all like questioned right. It's all questionable right now, and so that's where just really reflecting right now, during this full moon, releasing everything that is not yours, and asking yourself where am I ready to release confusion or self-sacrifice? What illusions no longer serve me? How can I soften and trust, trust others? How can I soften and trust, trust others?
Dora:So this is where I encourage you to implement any of the rituals that I love and hold so close to my heart, which is the limpias, journaling, meditation, and especially like a good Epsom salt bath, like if you can. Like a good Epsom salt bath, like if you can. Those are the different things that prepare the body emotionally, spiritually, mentally, physically to release all the things that no longer serve you. Focus on releasing illusions, that old emotional baggage and that victim mentalities. Find that balance between your need for inner peace versus all your duties that you have. And so I'll leave you with these five questions. Number one have I been dreamy to the point of not getting enough done and making silly errors? Number two have I been overly sensitive and too easily hurt? Number three have I been acting like a martyr or too easily led? Number four have I been meditating every day? And if not, why not? And number five have I been in touch with my intuitive side, following my dreams and hunches, with my intuitive side, following my dreams and hunches.
Dora:Now the message with this full moon, lunar eclipse in Pisces, is it's a super mystical moon and this is connecting you with your inner psychic. Now, moving on to the solar eclipse in Virgo, which is later this month, in September 21st, and again, this is going to be a gut punch in September and there's going to be a lot of emotions running high. But some of the themes with Virgo, with this new moon, is new beginnings in health, healing, daily practices, boundaries and service. So Virga reminds us that healing is in the details. They're small, it's consistent action. And so you're planting these seeds in very practical ways by simplifying your routines, honoring the body, creating sacred structure, and I can definitely start to see some of that formulating within my body. And so this full moon I'm going to release. But then, when it comes and I'm looking forward to the new moon is what ways can I honor my body right, what ways can I go ahead and embrace these small, consistent actions that will get me to be in a better elevated spot, both body, physically, mentally, emotionally and in all ways? And this opens us up to new pathways around health, the boundaries, the service and our healing routines. So earlier in September we release and then we realign in September 21st with this new moon solar eclipse in Virgo.
Dora:So ask yourself, what new healing habit am I ready to begin? How can I create structure without burnout? Where do I need stronger boundaries and service? And so I've been testing these boundaries out a bit, especially here at home with my husband, and it's been working. It's been in the works and sometimes I need to be positive, right, but we all have our shitty days and I remember recently, like this week, I was like sobbing, going to sleep and my husband helped me and that's all I needed at that moment was to be held and just cry unconsolably because you have all these unknowns happening in your near future, and especially dealing with this emotional realm of things.
Dora:Right, when things shake you up to the point where you don't know what to expect in the future, what's the outlook going to be like. But then again, looking forward to things in the future is actually a positive thing, right, traveling, going places, doing various things you wanted to do. And that's when you start realizing, wow, what have I done with my life? So what's consistency and, especially, holding up the boundary and honoring yourself, on putting yourself first. Really honing in on what makes you happy, those are boundaries you can have with yourself. Honing in on what makes you happy, those are boundaries you can have with yourself. So, during the solar eclipse later this month, I invite you to take an inventory of your life and work on what is working, what is not working and discerning what are the things that you want to hone in, what do you want to focus on going forward? And then two, be of service. Consider what ways can you contribute to your immediate community or helping out someone and put a smile on that right, and it definitely creates this like karmatic, great reciprocal energy collectively.
Dora:The third thing is be healthy. Right now, it's a great time to think about how do you want to improve your health overall, such as diet, exercise, maybe get some mental assistance, you know, with that mental game of yours, and I encourage you to if you haven't tried meditation or some yoga practice and slowing down and going through those motions of really reflecting on what is important in your life. The next one is avoid being nitpicky, like being too picky, like one thing is being a picky eater, right, but the other thing, too, is being overly critical, analytical, about everything that goes on looking for the flaws right, and especially when you're so hard on yourself. So don't be that so, do your best, have grace for yourself and compassion and come from it and do things with love, right. And I think once you have a heartfelt way of doing things and going through the motions, that speaks volumes.
Dora:And the last one is get organized, like clean out the closet, clear out the schedule and find table time for yourself as well, but also pencil in things that are important to you, like if it's spending time with your family going to the get-togethers I know we're winding down on the carne asadas now in September it's been cold here in Chicago with a bit windy, but how, and especially as we look forward to the future, right, the holidays in that right now really like, reflect, realign with what is true to you, both physically in your spaces, like, such as a closet, the workspace, your car, and what things are you feeding your body, such as like what music are you listening to? What books are you digesting or audio booking or reading? What people do you have surrounding you? Are those people that are uplifting you in your corner or are they kind of bringing your energy down? So pay attention to those things and, again, get organized. So, overall, for this Virgo medicine, you want to focus on your health and body. It's time to pay attention to digestion nervous system and rest your daily rituals, creating consistency and simplifying routines, boundaries in the service. So giving without losing yourself, and implementing these healthy practices such as the limpias, the journaling, meditation, walking in nature, really connecting yourself to Pachamama. So how is your body whispering to you right now? What daily practice would bring you peace? So balancing Virgo and Pisces is going to be a dance right?
Dora:Virgo is structure, practicality and service, where Pisces is surrender, spirit and compassion, while caring for your body and boundaries in Virgo. So Virgo calls in order, position and Pisces calls in flow and intuition. So together, in this month, it asks us can you create structure without the rigidity? Can you surrender without the self-sacrifice? So I invite you to close your eyes for a moment and breathe in and breathe out, and imagine Virgo grounding one foot on Virgo's earth while you put your other foot in Pisces' ocean, where it's flowing, it's fluid, it's flowing through you and when you're ready you can open your eyes.
Dora:So it's a time to reflect like where in my life am I too rigid? Where am I too unboundaried? That's where, for me, in this season in my life, I've really started to think about what are the priorities of my life, how do I want to live by them? And it's important, when you set boundaries, to communicate those to those around you. And if you are being too rigid, that's where do you have flexibility? Is there room for negotiation or is that going to hinder you even more? So, collectively, there are some healing themes with both of the.
Dora:In September, with Pisces, we see the emotional health and the mental health. Where in Virgo, later this month, that's where we're going to see the physical health, the wellness systems and the nervous system support. And we're going to start to see collectively how some illusions are going to be revealed in a collective level. So it could be close to home or it could be on like a broader scale, such as globally, socially, like in the news and that. And then Virgo is going to bring that clarity and restructuring and this is all happening for us, for you, for us collectively, and it's not to fear because it's realigning. It's like throwing everything back into alignment and there might be some things that are very drastic, that are happening right now and I feel you, because I am going through it with and alongside you, just know that you are supported.
Dora:And that's where I've always said, like, and I keep telling my, my loved ones that you know I've spent my life planting seeds, that sometimes, when you need it the most, that's when you're reaping them, right, you're pulling the harvest, and that is definitely this season right now, right Like with a farmer. They're like I live in Illinois, so there's a bunch of corn and there's like pumpkins that are going to grow and all these things, because we're going to be approaching October, right Like the Halloween season, and into fall. And that's where it's just being grateful on all the seeds that you plant, because you will sprout, they will sprout and you will collect and you will receive. But we also need to be that vessel open to that receiving part, and that is healing in and of itself, is accepting that love, the compassion, the support, in whatever way it shows up.
Dora:Growing up, I always thought it was resources such as like the money or things of that nature, but as you grow up, you start to realize like health is a very important thing, and especially when you're given like this path right, that you know it's going to be treacherous. It's like having the optimism that everything's going to be okay, that you're being held, you're being supported, everything's going to be okay, that you're being held, you're being supported. Medicine and science has come a long way, so there are options. But still when you hear like these big terminologies and that you get scared, so just know that I'm holding you and whatever you're going through right now and just focus on your health, focus on your body, and that means focusing on the mental and emotional stability that you can do this. Anything, any challenge that you're going through, just sit with yourself, cry it out if you need to because God knows that I cry a lot, so you're not chillona and just be held right in that God's grace and that love. And if you have a partner, if you don't have a partner, just know that you have people that are loving and support you. And if you alone and I've had this happen too in the past where I was in a point where I was so depressed to the point where I had all these people around me but I felt so alone that's where just acknowledging that and knowing that you feel so alone is the first step, like having that awareness and just hugging yourself. That's one way you can support yourself. But you know you're never going to be alone. You always have this divine energy always cascading around you that is going to be so uplifting and so marvelous for you and you are a walking testimony of God's love. So just know that.
Dora:So on to some practical eclipse guidance where, right now, during this time in the month of September, and especially around these dates, like, don't make big sudden decisions on these exact dates. Let the energy settle for deep release rituals from September 7th through 8th. And I actually have a short full moon prayer that I'm going to share with you and you can repeat this when you're going through the motions on what feels best for you. But when you're releasing this in this full moon, like these next few days, that's where I want you to say this I invite you to close your eyes and place a hand over your corazón and repeat after me Bajo esta luna llena.
Dora:Under this full moon, I breathe in clarity and I exhale what no longer serves me in clarity and I exhale what no longer serves me. I forgive myself for the moments I carried too much, for believing I had to be perfect, for the guilt and shame that were never mine. I forgive others for what they could not give, for the wounds they passed on. I release their hold on my spirit. With this eclipse, I let go, I soften, I return to compassion, to grace, to my esencia, to my essence. So it is and so it shall be.
Dora:Now we're going to take three clearing, cleansing, deep breaths. We're going to inhale and exhale and exhale, inhale, exhale One more, inhale and exhale. Now, if you want an extended version of this prayer or full moon release guidance, you can send a message. You can click on it below where it says send a message or a voice memo and you can send me the word release. Or you can go ahead and email me at dora, at dorapraxadescom, and you can just email me that word release and I can send you that extended prayer for your full moon release. And so that is very key right now is to release anything that we can in these next few days. Some other rituals to try out is the egg limpia to clear this eclipse energy, anything that's coming up, journaling, especially to track any shifts that are happening, and our breath work, or meditation for that nervous system support and you can try any of these. Also with the solar eclipse when it's happening later this month in September, on September 21st, and that one you can.
Dora:Just that's when you want to call in a lot of you know what projects you have going on, especially when it comes to supporting your body, your health and being well in. In that, and that's going to be the main focus, is making sure that you're realigning and readjusting anything, especially as we go into this, you know, like hibernation mode and it's getting cold and windy and everything. That's where you really want to make sure you're harvesting all those new things and calling in what you want to envision for your life and going forward, especially as we approach these last few months of the year. It amazes me how fast time flies and I think after I turned 25, that's when it's like you kind of don't even remember your age, so I don't know, it's kind of odd. And then after 30, it's like you're starting things start to break down right.
Dora:So at my short age of 38, I am going through my set of challenges, but that's where, knowing that I can rely on these practices and these times and I'm going to be super emotional as fuck. Right now, especially given the circumstances, I still have that optimism that everything's happening for me right. So just hone in on the stuff that's working. Have gratitude also as a practice on a daily and just be grateful of where and how far you've come. If you haven't noticed any of these things, good for you. But I'm pretty sure there's going to be some unsettling things coming up with these eclipse energies. But just know that it is normal. Things may feel intense and uncertain, or even accelerated to some degree, and you might feel drained, emotional or sensitive, but that is natural. We are human beings. We're living in this human experience together.
Dora:So I invite you to work on in this month of September your inner child healing where guilt, shame or over-sacrifice is showing up, and trying to figure out where these patterns come from. Notice where the guilt or shame still directs choices. Right, you want to make sure you set boundaries on those things and do that inner work. The other thing to watch out for is ancestral patterns. What habits in your health, work or sacrifice run in your family? What things are you still conditioned to do? And for me it's been definitely the workaholic mode because I like to busy myself, so I can numb and I don't have to worry about all these other underlying things that are happening. And the last one here is energetic clearings. Like use the limpias, the breath and the sound to reset yourself. Like what works for you. What are the modalities that work for you that I've shared in the past few episodes?
Dora:So I encourage you to lean on your community, the comunidad, and if you're working with a coach or someone of a professional manner because you need it, go for it. Like do it. Don't sit on it. Like these are things that like are holding you back from doing the shit that you really want to do. So I know you're a badass, you're a baddie, so just go for it. Like sky's the limit. No hay limitaciones. Life is too short. Let's go for all our dreams and all our hopes and let's again. Consistency is the key right. No se construyó Roma en un día right. It took a while and I think there's still ruins there. So just go for the things that are really on your heart, like dig in honor them. Don't let them hold you back, because you're doing yourself a disservice and everybody else around you, because god knows, you have gifts and you got to share them and you're going to be open with them, but sometimes we like to live in our, in our closets, right like I lived in my spiritual closet for a very long time and as I'm recording this, I am looking around in my closet because this is where I'm recording and that's where. Just meet yourself. Where you're at.
Dora:I know you're afraid to do things because you feel like, oh, they're going to. You know I'm going to be a failure, I'm going to be a loser, I'm going to be this, but if you don't try, you got to keep going. You got to have that faith in yourself and that confidence, and by stepping into something, that's what you're going to have confidence in the more and more you do it. So one thing that I'm going to share with you is I'm really scared to do this five-day challenge, because this is the first time I'm actually hosting such a thing, but I'm thinking about inviting my friends, my family, and I know I got support and I got you too, so I expect to see you there.
Dora:Nihita, your worth is not in how much you do for others. This burger energy can get caught up in over serving. So this eclipse asks you to reclaim tu poder, your power. So this isn't about doing more. It's about letting go of what's not yours so you can finally feel free, and that's what I'm going to be talking about in my five-day challenge. So, definitely, the invitation is there Now.
Dora:If you're heading into this eclipse season and if you're feeling the pull of these eclipses, I want more guidance. Mijita, you don't have to do this sola, alone. This is the perfect time and moment to get support and reconnecting with your raices, clearing old cycles and stepping into your authentic self. Now these eclipses are stirring up old wounds and craving deeper guidance, and so, again, you don't have to move through this alone, and I love to support you through my intuitive coaching, limpias and tools to reconnect with those raices. So you connect with me at dorapaxadescom or you can click on the send a message or voice memo below, and I invite you to send me a message or a voice memo of what you've been going through, even if we don't work together, like I would love to hear from you, and that is definitely down below in the show notes. Now I'm definitely going to work on myself so I can be able to provide, like all these great things that I have lined up for y'alls and again, I am doing a five day challenge, which I have a link down below and I will be posting that on my Instagram. So I would love your support.
Dora:If you like, your, love it or look, have a look out for it. Now I'll leave you with this short closing affirmation and I want you to breathe in, take a deep breath in, hold it and breathe out. Now feel that, release and ground your feet and take in this affirmation. I release what no longer serves me. I open to aligned healing and grounded beginnings. I am grounded in my healing. I am free to realign.
Dora:Thank you for being part of this journey with me through the Cyclops Portal and especially if you're listening to this, in once it drops nine. Nine nine is such a significant number numerology. So we are, there's many, many things happening for you and I have faith that wherever you're at in your journey, there's a lot of stuff that's coming, blessings, even though they might not seem that way, they are reshap. Just want to recap that the month of september we're going to focus on health, daily routines, boundaries, the balance between service and surrender, and remember these dates September 7th through 8th it's the Pisces lunar eclipse, where we're releasing the illusions and the emotional baggage. And September 21st it's the Virgo solar eclipse, the new moon, which that's where the new healing practices happen structure and routines, and just make sure you focus on the body. Remember eclipses are cosmic resets and I really appreciate you.
