Eclipse Season Survival Guide: Rituals, Tools & Tarot for Staying Grounded

By Divine Alchemist High Priestess


Eclipse Season Survival Guide

A Sacred Portal of Transformation

Eclipse season is not here to destroy you, it’s here to awaken you.

When the cosmos aligns to cast shadows over the Sun or Moon, it isn’t just an astronomical event, it’s a deeply spiritual gateway. Eclipses shake the Earth and stir the soul. They are divine interruptions that remove illusions, activate timelines, and accelerate your soul’s evolution. But let’s be honest: it doesn’t always feel graceful.


If you've been feeling anxious, off-balance, exhausted, or spiritually raw, you're not alone. Eclipse energy is wild, intense, and often unpredictable. That’s why having a grounded, spiritually aligned toolkit is essential, not only to survive eclipse season but to rise with intention.


This Eclipse Survival Guide will walk you through the rituals, tools, and tarot insights to help you stay rooted in your truth during one of the most alchemizing celestial cycles of the year.


Eclipse Season Survival Guide: Rituals, Tools & Tarot for Staying Grounded

🌑 What Is Eclipse Season

(And Why It Feels So Intense)?

Eclipse season occurs when a solar and lunar eclipse happen within the same 30–40 day window. These cosmic events come in pairs (sometimes triads), and they often bring rapid endings, profound beginnings, and sudden awakenings. They illuminate what has been hidden, within and without.

Key Themes of Eclipse Energy:

  • Karmic cycles ending and beginning

  • Accelerated growth and realignment

  • Emotional purges and energetic upgrades

  • Fated events, divine detours, and soul contracts shifting

During eclipse season, we often lose what no longer aligns with our purpose, even if our mind hasn't caught up with our spirit yet. But remember: every eclipse is a cosmic course correction. Trust that what leaves is creating space for what your soul actually needs.



🧘🏽‍♀️ How to Stay Grounded During Eclipse Season

Staying grounded Eclipse Season Survival Guidedoesn't mean resisting change, it means anchoring into your body, breath, and inner knowing while the Universe rearranges your outer world.

Here are spiritual tools and rituals that can help:

🌿 1. Eclipse Season Ritual: The Rooted Release & Renewal Ceremony

Best for: Lunar eclipses, endings, emotional detox

Timing: Within 3 days before or after the eclipse

🔥 You’ll Need:

  • 1 black candle (protection & release)

  • Bowl of salt water (cleansing)

  • 3 bay leaves (wishes or things to release)

  • Pen + paper

  • Grounding crystal (black tourmaline, hematite, or smoky quartz)

🌀 Steps:

  1. Cleanse your space with herbal smoke or sound.

  2. Sit with your grounding crystal and breathe deeply into your root chakra.

  3. Write down three things you're ready to release—patterns, relationships, fears.

  4. Burn each bay leaf safely in a fireproof dish, imagining the energy dissolving.

  5. Dip your fingers in the salt water and say:"I release what no longer serves. I stand firm in my truth. I trust the divine unfolding."

  6. Close with gratitude. Ground by eating something nourishing or placing your feet on the Earth.



🔮 2. Tarot for Eclipse Season:

A 4-Card Spread for Insight & Alignment

Use this spread anytime during eclipse season to receive messages from Spirit about what’s shifting and how to move with trust.

✨ The Eclipse Portal Spread:

  1. What is being eclipsed out of my life?

  2. What is trying to enter my field?

  3. What inner truth is being activated?

  4. How can I stay grounded in this transition?

Use your intuition as you pull. Let the cards be a mirror, not a prediction. Write your insights down and revisit them post-eclipse—you’ll be amazed by the divine alignment.


🔧 3. Spiritual Tools for Eclipse Season Support

When emotions are high and the veil is thin, these tools can help you stay rooted, calm, and energetically protected:

  • Mugwort or Blue Lotus Tea: Calms the nervous system and opens the third eye

  • Black Tourmaline: Dispels fear and electromagnetic chaos

  • Florida Water or Rose Water: Aura clearing and energetic refresh

  • Anointing oils (like frankincense or myrrh): For protection and crown chakra connection

  • Salt baths with lavender or rosemary: To cleanse auric debris and soothe overwhelm

  • Affirmations: Speak them aloud when you feel untethered:“I trust what’s unfolding.”“Everything I release creates space for alignment.”“My soul knows the way.”


What NOT to Do During Eclipse Season

While each soul’s journey is unique, some universal guidance applies during eclipses:

🚫 Don’t do intense manifestation rituals or new moon wishes, eclipses are too chaotic for setting intentions.

🚫 Don’t rush decisions. What feels urgent now may shift post-eclipse.

🚫 Don’t suppress emotions. Let the waves move through you.

🚫 Don’t ignore your body, eclipse energy can manifest physically. Rest, hydrate, and ground.



Remember: You’re Not Being Punished, You’re Being Realigned

Eclipses aren’t here to hurt you, they're sacred assignments from the Universe to get you back on track. Sometimes that means shaking up what feels comfortable to reveal what’s true. Sometimes that means letting go of what you thought you wanted to receive what you truly need.


Trust the divine detour. You’re not falling apart—you’re being re-formed by divine design.
