Virgo Solar Eclipse: Brokenness, Healing, and Following the North Node

Just days before the Solar Eclipse in Virgo — the second Virgo new moon this year — I received a message. Cosmic timing never plays small. Virgo rules the details, the ways we hold ourselves accountable, the places we get tangled in criticism and perfection. And this eclipse doesn’t stand alone — it arrives with the South Node in Virgo, the North Node in Pisces.
For me, that axis runs through my 10th and 4th houses: the public face of my life and the private roots of my being. The message I received was less about him and more about me. A mirror. An invitation. A reminder of how I choose to respond — not just in words, but in energy. Because even when no reply is sent, the vibration we hold is a response.
The reel he sent spoke of brokenness.
“Broken people attract broken people.”
An easy phrase to toss, but one that erases the layers beneath. Because sometimes it’s not two souls equally fractured. Sometimes it’s an empath bending, a narcissist consuming, a heart seeing potential while reality hides in the shadows.
Yes, I’ve lost myself in relationships at times — bending into people-pleasing, caretaking, loving the dream of someone more than the truth of them. But I never abandoned myself. I see those patterns clearly now, and I own the part I played.
His words felt like a leveling, a way to draw us even. But we are not equal in this.
What unfolded between us was not healing, but distortion: insecurity that morphed into cruelty, fear that cloaked itself as control, self-sabotage disguised as love, and words sharpened not to connect, but to wound. His defensiveness was never about me, but about the war he carried inside himself. Still, I will not wear labels that are not mine. I am not broken. I am becoming.
And that’s why I refuse to let “brokenness” be thrown like a stone. Brokenness is not an excuse. Brokenness is not darkness. To me, it is the crack where light breaks through, the place where love remakes us. It is an opening — not a weapon.
I don’t need to defend who I am anymore. My silence is my answer, and my becoming speaks louder than any reply ever could. I wish him light on his path, but my path is no longer tangled with proving or explaining. I don’t need to be understood to be whole.
Eclipses crack open turning points. Have you felt it? A crossroads, a subtle nudge, a shadow rising to be seen. Not every message requires a reply. Sometimes the most powerful response is simply standing in the truth of who you are becoming.
So I ask you: What would it look like to respond this time from the North Node — your own North Star — instead of the old South Node pattern? The choice you make now may ripple far beyond this moment.
If any part of this touched something inside you, I’d love to know.
