In this episode, we step into the energy of the Virgo Full Moon Eclipse, a portal of powerful purification, and quiet revelation. Rather than approaching Virgo through the lens of mere discipline and details, we channel its Buddhic essence—the energy of refined awareness, sacred service, and the devotion to embodying wisdom in the smallest of earthly acts.

This eclipse asks: How does mindfulness translate into tangible reality? Where does sacred order arise within the seeming chaos of life? How do we surrender not to perfection, but to the flow of intelligent design already at play?

Through Phi’s channeled perspective, we explore Virgo as a vessel for enlightened action, where spirituality isn’t separate from daily life but infused into love and choices. Expect insights on:

The Buddhic mind – cultivating a spacious awareness amidst the shifting tides of this eclipse.
Releasing over-identification – detaching from the illusion of control while still honouring deep devotion to your path.

The current energy in March 2025: Venus Retrograde, Virgo Full Moon and Eclipse

Hello my love,

Welcome back to the Grow Through it Podcast. If the cosmic games haven’t already started for you with Venus Retrograde and all things love, money and relationships at the end of this week on the 14th we have the Virgo full moon which happens to also be a lunar eclipse too. If you’re keep tracking since my energy update for March 2025 you’ll know this is the week before the official new astrological year in Aries kicking off on the 20th.

It’s very much the energy of letting go to do with Virgo, the collective karma at the moment. Virgo is associated with perfectionism, structure, routine, service, and discernment, this eclipse highlights areas where you may need to let go of rigid control, over-analysis or self-criticism.

Virgo Full Moon Eclipse - Channelled Intuitive Message

It makes a lot of sense when I channeled the upcoming energy I saw the taming of the mind – as if you were training your dog or puppy you know? Off the back of it what comes through is energy of a buddhic nature.

One of my good friends recently got a puppy so I don’t know if that’s why it’s connected but I’m going to roll with it. Taming the mind is much like training a puppy. At first, it wanders freely, chasing every impulse, barking at shadows and reacting instinctively to every noise. It pulls you in different directions, darting between excitement, fear, distraction and restlessness. But just as a dog learns discipline through patience and consistency, so too can the mind be gently guided toward stillness and focus.

Imagine your thoughts as an unruly puppy—full of energy, curious, and easily led astray. You wouldn’t scold it harshly for its nature, but instead, you would redirect it with kindness and clarity. When it gets distracted, you bring it back. When it tugs toward anxiety, you soothe it. Over time, with repetition, it learns to stay present, to trust in the steady rhythm of your breath, and to sit in quiet without needing constant movement.

Like a well-trained pet, a tamed mind becomes an ally rather than an obstacle. It no longer jumps at every passing thought or reacts to every external trigger. Instead, it learns to wait, observe, and act only when truly necessary. This is not about suppression or control, but about cultivating a relationship built on trust. The mind, when guided with patience and care, can become a source of peace rather than chaos—loyal, steady, and always by your side.

Buddhist Perspective Taming the Mind - Monkey Mind

From a Buddhist mindfulness perspective, taming the mind is a lifelong practice of awareness, discipline, and compassion. The mind, like a wild animal, is naturally restless, seeking pleasure, avoiding pain and constantly wandering between past regrets and future anxieties. The goal is not to forcefully control or suppress it but to gently train it, much like a monk might train an ox or a horse—with patience, consistency, and wisdom.

One of the most well-known Buddhist metaphors for the untamed mind is the “monkey mind”—a mind that leaps from thought to thought, restless and easily distracted. Through meditation and mindfulness, one learns to observe this monkey without attachment, neither chasing after pleasant thoughts nor resisting unpleasant ones. Instead of reacting impulsively, a trained mind is all for equality, recognising thoughts as passing clouds rather than ultimate truths. Thus one of my favourite sayings: not my monkeys, not my circus.

The mind and discpline

The Buddha taught that the mind, when left unchecked, creates suffering through craving, aversion, and ignorance. However when tamed through right effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration, it becomes a tool for liberation. A disciplined mind can remain steady amidst life’s challenges, free from reactivity and rooted in deep inner peace. In this way, taming the mind is not just about control but about cultivating wisdom, compassion, and a profound sense of freedom.

Devotion as love

I love how things connect and weave because I recently posted on Instagram – What if discipline was an act of devotion – that reframe. Discipline has often been framed as something harsh, something that requires relentless willpower, restriction and forcing yourself to do things even when you don’t want to.This mindset creates burnout, resentment and a disconnection from your deeper why… your purpose.

The Unlearning: True consistency comes from love, not rigid self-punishment. When you shift from force to devotion, everything changes.

Devotion is fuelled by purpose, by the deep knowing that you want to show up—not because you have to, but because you get to. The most sustainable discipline is the kind that honours your rhythms and is rooted in care rather than control. Discipline, at its core, is an act of devotion. It is the daily return to what matters, the quiet commitment to something greater than fleeting comfort or passing moods. When you shift your perspective from seeing discipline as restriction to viewing it as devotion, it transforms from a burden into a sacred practice.

When discipline is rooted in love, it stops feeling like a chore and starts feeling like a sacred commitment to your own well being. And that shift changes everything.

Eclipses 2025 and mutable astrology signs

The eclipses heavily affect those with well of course Virgo in their sign, Pisces being the north node and the other two mutable signs of astrology: Sagittarius and Gemini the shape shifters, these signs are fluid in their expression – in your natural highest nature you’re able to adapt easily, of with the flow, roll with the punches.

March 2025 Worm Full Moon Eclipse

This particular full moon and eclipse in Virgo is known as the Worm Moon the traditional name for the full moon that occurs in March, marking the transition from winter to spring in the Northern Hemisphere.

The Worm Moon signifies the time when the ground begins to thaw, and earthworms reappear, bringing fertile soil and attracting birds like robins—a clear sign of spring’s arrival. It symbolises renewal, awakening, and preparation for new growth.

Worms are nature’s quiet alchemists—transforming decay into nourishment, breaking down what is no longer needed, and returning it to the earth to create fertile ground for new life. As a metaphor, worms beautifully illustrate the process of letting go, releasing karma, and embracing rebirth.

Just as worms break down fallen leaves and old roots, you, too, are invited to decompose what no longer serves you—old beliefs, past regrets, emotional burdens. This isn’t destruction but transformation. Letting go doesn’t mean erasing the past; it means allowing it to be repurposed, integrated, and returned to the soil of your being so that something new can grow.

March 2025 Eclipse Karma

Karma, like organic matter, is not wasted—it is recycled, reworked, and reborn in different forms. Every experience, every lesson, every challenge digests into wisdom, becoming the rich foundation for your next chapter. Just as the earthworms quietly work beneath the surface, your inner evolution is happening even when you don’t see it. Trust in the process. The old is not lost; it is simply becoming the nourishment for your rebirth.

Virgo high and shadow expression

Virgo, in its highest expression, brings discernment, organisation, and devotion to service, but when unbalanced, it can lead to self-criticism, rigidity, and an endless striving for “better.” To surrender these patterns is not to abandon structure, but to soften the edges—to allow room for flow, trust, and enoughness.

For example, you might notice how your mind fixates on details, endlessly tweaking a project or replaying conversations, searching for the “right” way to have done things. Or perhaps you hold yourself to impossibly high standards, feeling like you must always be improving, always doing more. Letting go of these Virgo tendencies doesn’t mean becoming careless; it means embracing the idea that things can be good enough—that you, as you are right now, are good enough.

Letting go also means releasing the need to fix—whether it’s yourself, others, or situations outside your control. Virgo energy often expresses itself in wanting to be helpful, but this can slip into over-functioning or taking on responsibilities that aren’t yours. What would it feel like to step back and trust that things will unfold without your constant intervention?

Virgo health, wellness and routines

Moreover Virgo is associated with health and wellness too. How you care for your body and structure your days directly impacts your ability to create abundance, maintain energy, and sustain long-term success. Virgo teaches that small, consistent habits shape the bigger picture—your financial health, physical well-being, and overall stability are a reflection of the systems you uphold daily.

Venus Retrograde Virgo Full Moon Eclipse

Being Venus Retrograde I may add, so in love with this energy and eclipse; Virgo energy is known for its devotion, care, and attention to detail, but in its shadow, it can manifest as overanalysis, hyper-criticism, and impossible standards—both for yourself and for others.

Themes and things to consider with this Virgo Full Moon Eclipse during Venus Retrograde:
– Perfection in relationships

– Standards in relationships
– Control in relationships

Are your standards coming from a place of self-love and clarity, or are they a shield against vulnerability? Virgo energy calls for reflection on where these standards come from—are they rooted in personal growth and healthy boundaries, or are they a way of protecting yourself from emotional risk?
