Stop forcing it (the eclipse will handle it) ✨

Sat Nam Loves, Myrah here.

I'm writing this as we're in the final countdown to Saturday's Virgo Solar Eclipse, and I can feel the energy building like a gentle but unstoppable tide.

If you've been pushing, striving, and trying to make things happen lately - this email is your cosmic permission slip to stop forcing it.

Because here's what I'm learning from this eclipse energy: The universe has a much better plan than the one you're trying to control.

The Week That Changes Everything (Sept 16-21)

Monday, September 16th - The energy starts shifting as we move toward eclipse season's finale. You might notice yourself naturally wanting to slow down, go within, or say no to things that felt important last week.

Tuesday-Wednesday - Venus squares Uranus while moving through Virgo. This is breakthrough energy around your values, your worth, and what you're no longer willing to tolerate. Trust the "no's" that come up.

Thursday, September 19th - Mercury creates a powerful Grand Air Trine with Pluto and Uranus. Your intuition is dialed up to 11. The conversations, ideas, and downloads coming through are pure gold.

Friday, September 20th - The Sun opposes Saturn. This is your final reality check before the eclipse. What needs to be faced? What responsibility are you ready to own? This isn't punishment - it's preparation for your graduation.

Saturday, September 21st - Virgo Solar Eclipse at 29°. Your cosmic commencement ceremony.

What We Didn't Tell You About This Eclipse

Here's the piece that's been coming through so clearly: This eclipse is happening with Mars at 29° Libra - also at a critical degree, also ready to graduate.

Mars has been in Libra since August, trying to be diplomatic, trying to keep everyone happy, sitting on the fence about what you really want. But right after this eclipse, Mars moves into Scorpio and everything changes.

Translation: You're about to stop people-pleasing and start truth-telling.

The eclipse is also creating what astrologers call a "world point" activation. When planets hit 0° of cardinal signs (which happens right after this eclipse when the Sun moves into Libra), it affects the collective consciousness.

Your personal transformation is part of a global awakening.

The Spiritual Responsibility You're Ready For

Saturn retrograde at 28° Pisces is opposing this eclipse, and here's what that really means:

You're being asked to take spiritual responsibility for your life. Not in a heavy, burdensome way - but in an empowered, "I'm the creator of my reality" way.

This eclipse is saying: "You've learned the lessons. You've done the healing work. Now it's time to own your power and step into your mastery."

The beautiful thing about spiritual responsibility is that it's actually liberating. When you stop blaming circumstances, other people, or "bad luck" for your experience, you realize you have the power to change everything.

Stop Forcing It: The David Bayer Revolution

Here's where everything clicks into place. Spiritual teacher David Bayer teaches something that perfectly aligns with this eclipse energy:

You don't create anything. You align with and participate in the creative force.

Think about it - you didn't create the internet, but you can participate in it. You didn't create the laws of physics, but you can work with them. You didn't create the universe, but you can align with its creative power.

This eclipse is asking you to stop trying to be the sole creator of your life and start collaborating with the universe.

The Force vs. Forcing It

When you're forcing it, you're operating from this "me against the world" mentality:

• "I have to make this happen"
• "If I don't control every detail, it won't work"
• "I need to outwork everyone else"
• "It's all up to me"

When you're aligned with the force, you're collaborating with creation:

• "I'm reporting for duty to my higher power"
• "I'll do my part and trust the universe to do its part"
• "The help, resources, and synchronicities will come"
• "I'm part of something much bigger than myself"

Your Eclipse Reframe

Instead of asking: "How do I make my dreams happen?"

Ask: "How do I align with what wants to be created through me?"

Instead of: "Why isn't this working yet?"

Ask: "What is this contrast showing me about what I actually desire?"

Instead of: "I need to figure this out."

Ask: "What wants to emerge naturally if I stop controlling it?"

The Virgo Perfectionist's Dilemma

Here's the beautiful irony of this Virgo eclipse: Virgo energy wants everything to be perfect, controlled, and precisely executed. But this eclipse is happening at the last degree of Virgo - meaning you're graduating from the need to have it all figured out.

You're moving from:

• Perfectionism → Excellence with ease
• Control → Trust in divine timing
• Doing it all yourself → Collaborative creation
• Forcing outcomes → Allowing solutions to emerge

Your Stop Forcing It Action Plan

Monday-Tuesday: Notice where you're pushing too hard. What would happen if you stepped back from trying to control that situation?

Wednesday-Thursday: Practice the "cosmic pause." Before taking action on anything, ask: "Is this inspired action or desperate action?"

Friday: Do a releasing ritual. Write down everything you've been trying to force and burn it. Literally let it go.

Saturday (Eclipse Day): Set intentions not for what you want to manifest, but for how you want to collaborate with the universe. Ask: "How can I be of service to what wants to be created?"

The Downstream Life

Loves, remember that you're not swimming upstream to your goals - you're flowing downstream because your future is pulling you into it.

This eclipse is that downstream current. You don't have to fight your way to your next chapter. You just have to stop resisting the flow that's already carrying you there.

Your dreams aren't delayed - they're being perfected behind the scenes.

What's Trying to Emerge

Beautiful soul, there's something trying to be born through you. A version of yourself that's more authentic, more powerful, more aligned with your soul's purpose.

But it can't emerge while you're gripping so tightly to how you think it should happen.

This eclipse is asking you to:

• Release the timeline you think it should follow
• Trust the process even when you can't see the whole staircase
• Collaborate with the universe instead of trying to do it all alone
• Allow your gifts to be shared in ways you haven't imagined yet

The Sacred Pause

Between now and Saturday, practice what I call "the sacred pause." Before making any decision, taking any action, or trying to solve any problem, pause and ask:

"Am I forcing this, or am I flowing with this?"

If it feels like forcing, step back. If it feels like flowing, move forward.

Your body knows the difference. Your soul knows the difference.

Your Graduation Gift

Here's what you're graduating into after this eclipse:

• Effortless manifestation because you're aligned with what wants to be created
• Synchronicities and "coincidences" that support your path
• The right people showing up at exactly the right time
• Solutions appearing without you having to figure them out
• A deep trust in your own intuition and divine timing

This isn't about becoming passive or lazy. It's about becoming strategically aligned with the creative force of the universe.

The Truth About This Eclipse

You're not going through this transformation to become someone new. You're going through it to remember who you've always been underneath all the trying, forcing, and controlling.

Your authentic self doesn't need to be forced into existence. It just needs space to emerge.

This eclipse is creating that space.

Are you ready to stop forcing it and start flowing with it?

All my love,
Myrah 

P.S. I'm hosting a special "Stop Forcing It Eclipse Workshop" this Friday evening where we'll practice the art of collaborative creation, release what you've been trying to control, and set intentions for flowing downstream into your next chapter.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is stop doing and start being. If you're ready to learn the art of effortless manifestation, join us. Link in bio or reply to this email.

Your breakthrough is in the letting go.
