Full moon, north node, magnitude 0.93
Partial lunar eclipse, 28 August 2026
Greatest eclipse at 04:13 UTC, which is where you are. The Moon stands at 4°51′ Pisces, opposite the Sun in Virgo, near the north node.
A partial lunar eclipse reaches its greatest point at 04:13 UTC on 28 August 2026. The Moon sits at 4°51' Pisces, opposite the Sun in Virgo, and the eclipse has a magnitude of 0.93, so nearly all of the Moon's disk passes into the darker part of Earth's shadow. It falls near the north node and can be seen from wherever the Moon is above the horizon at that time.
The tradition treats lunar eclipses as full moons that bring matters to a head. With Pisces and Virgo on either side, astrologers read a pull between imagination, compassion and rest on one hand, and order, detail and daily routine on the other. A practical step: leave some unscheduled time in the days around the eclipse and see what surfaces when nothing is planned.
