GODDESS OF THE DAY - DEWI RATIH
FEMININE DIVINE LUNAR
BEAUTY OF THE ECLIPSE
✨
Radiant Goddess of the Moon,
Bearer of grace and eternal return,
You rise through shadows with a light unbroken.
Your face is the beauty of a total lunar eclipse
Your spirit glows in deep lunar beauty in shades of red.
Flowing from Tirta Amertha (Water of eternal life)
Dewi Ratih, we call to you…
Illuminate our hearts,
Guide our cycles,
And bless us with your gentle strength as the sky gifts us with a Blood Moon tonight
Hold us in your Moonlight essence ….
Oh beautiful celestial sight.
✨
Full Moon in Pisces on Sunday, September 7th. The illuminated surface of the moon is 100%. The lunar cycle is 14 days old. We have a total lunar eclipse, also known as a "Blood Moon," occurring on September 7-8, 2025, visible from Africa, Asia, Australia, and parts of Europe and the Indian Ocean. Nearly 7 billion people which is about 85% of the world population will witness a total lunar eclipse coinciding with a SuperMoon.
Under the Pisces Lunar Eclipse, the veils part and Dewi Ratih, luminous Goddess of the Moon, weaves her silver threads through the tapestry of our souls. She gathers the weight of karmic chapters and dissolves them into her celestial glow, freeing us from the bindings of old vows and worn-out destinies. The Blood Moon rises as her chalice, calling forth endings that are not ruin, but sacred purification—anointing the earth with what must fall away. In her light, we remember that death is never the end, but the alchemy of becoming. Each farewell is an initiation, a doorway into deeper love, greater wisdom, and the spiral of rebirth, where destiny evolves in harmony with the eternal dance of the Moon.
Dewi Ratih is the Goddess of the Moon and beauty. She is known for her grace and loveliness and is often associated with the myth of lunar eclipses. Dewi Ratih is also known as Sang Hyang Ratih or Sang Hyang Semara Ratih). As a revered Hindu goddess in the spiritual traditions of Java and Bali, she is celebrated for her elegance. Under each full moon (purnama), Balinese ritual honors Dewi Ratih’s radiant spirit. Offerings are made in gratitude for the Moon’s beauty and its guiding presence in the night sky.
When the rakshasa Kala Rau disguised himself and sought immortality by drinking the gods’ nectar, Dewi Ratih saw through his guise and warned Vishnu. Vishnu struck him down—but only his throat had tasted the elixir, granting him a cursed immortal existence. Thus, whenever the Moon rises, Kala Rau pursues her, swallowing her briefly in a cosmic gesture… only for her to emerge again—untainted and resplendent. This powerful myth is the Balinese explanation of a lunar eclipse.
Dewi Ratih is the soft brilliance of moonlight rising after darkness…. Pure, unyielding, and tender in her return. She teaches us that even when shadows fall, we emerge restored, luminous, and connected to the cycles of healing and grace.
The eclipse will last for about 1 hour and 22 minutes, with the Moon appearing red as it passes through Earth's shadow. Just as the Moon's gravitational dance affects the tides, so too does it stir the currents of our inner seas. Pisces, the ethereal water sign, opens portals to our intuitive depths and encourages us to flow with the tides of our emotions, embracing the art of surrender and change.
Close your eyes and imagine standing under the Balinese night sky. The full moon glows above you—soft, silver, alive. This is Dewi Ratih’s presence. Feel her light touching your skin, flowing into your body, filling your womb, heart, and mind with peace.
Notice that even when a shadow begins to pass across her face, her essence never fades. She is still whole, still radiant, still eternal. Let this truth settle into your being: Your light is never diminished by passing shadows.
Breathe this in, and when you open your eyes, carry her glow within you.
Sending love and Full Moon blessings,
Aradia
