The 2025 Fall Equinox is the point that brings us into fall, when the days become shorter and leaves begin to turn. This month, the full moon blooms in Pisces a couple weeks before the Fall Equinox (and new moon in Virgo). Pisces is the dreamer of the zodiac. The full moon can bring big dreams to the surface this month, and a couple weeks later, the new moon in Virgo balances the energy with a reminder that big dreams require practical action and planning. The Fall Equinox balances the light and dark and falls in the center of the two full moons.
The sun and moon themes this month are all about balance. It’s a great time to look at the slices of our lives and where we desire more balance versus where we feel it. When something is relinquished, something else takes its place. To bring more of something in, we may need to release something else.
Join circle facilitators Nadine Calderon and Louisa Meyer to connect with yourself in a safe and sacredly held community alongside other inspiring women. Moonrose Circle offers an invitation to pause, love yourself, find a sense of calm, and give yourself permission to be who you truly are. Through meditation, creative activities, movement, and reflection, our circles help you reconnect and find sparks of peace, joy, renewal, and perhaps inspiration.
The Pisces full moon and Fall Equinox circle will be held at Rising Sol Yoga in Old Town Alexandria. We hope you'll join us!

What to expect: Circles are held in person. They offer time to share what's on your heart as you feel called, participate in a guided mindfulness practice (yoga, meditation, or sound healing), and a creative activity connected to the month's topic such as painting, embroidery, watercolor, and more: an invitation to honor yourself and practice self-love in a safe and fun environment.
What to bring and keep in mind:
Circles are sacred space. Respect, conscientiousness, and confidentiality are important tenets of keeping a space intentional, safe, and true to its purpose (held with integrity). We expect all attendees to uphold these tenets in holding a co-creative seat during circle participation.
Arrive 10-15 minutes early to allow time for parking, shoe removal, and settling in.
To drop deeper into presence, recommend limiting your phone use during circles if possible.
Bring: water, yoga mat, journal/pen, blanket optional, and yourself as you are.
Wear: comfortable clothes. The studio runs hot so layers may be ideal to remove if needed.
