Does it affect you? Of course, it’s an eclipse! It affects everyone regardless of zodiac sign and decan.
The second eclipse in the current eclipse period takes place on March 29 at the 9° degree of Aries. This eclipse follows the lunar eclipse that occurred two weeks prior.
A powerful solar eclipse, which either culminates emotional responses that have already begun or brings new events that open a new chapter in your life while simultaneously closing the previous one.
This eclipse is the last to occur on the Aries-Libra axis—a cosmic axis related to how we express ourselves within relationships and where balance lies between our own desires and those of others.
As it occurs within a framework of mostly positive aspects but also retrogrades, this eclipse brings changes and new beginnings in relationships as a result of reevaluations that have already started and will be completed over the next two months.
In the sign of Aries—associated with beginnings, new starts, authenticity, drive, and courage—it is highly favorable for launching entrepreneurial plans, setting new goals, and taking leaps forward.
This is a North Node eclipse, meaning it represents the next evolutionary step in your journey toward self-actualization. Its purpose is to propel you forward and free you from situations and conditions that are holding you back.
During this eclipse, what you are called to do is listen to and follow the flame in your heart!
It’s a solar eclipse that activates relationship dynamics while simultaneously urging you, with the Nodes on the Virgo-Pisces axis, to act both practically, based on what benefits you, and inspiredly, keeping an eye on the bigger picture.
It promises new beginnings and developments not only in relationships but also in the area activated in your personal horoscope provided that you trust the flow.
These beginnings and developments come as a result of a series of reevaluations and realizations that have been happening and will continue to happen both mentally and emotionally, as Mercury and Venus are retrograde.
Mercury is retrograde at 0° Aries. The starting point of the entire zodiac, and is heading back into Pisces territory, connecting the future with the past.
What does this mean?
It means that with this eclipse, your decisions regarding your next steps are finalized. How you will lead and move forward. Now is when you understand what needs to close, what needs to be completed, changed, or ended so you can move forward.
What else does this mean?
It means that even if you decide to leave something behind, you’ll first give it a second chance. Mercury will pass through 0° Aries direct on April 16th. Then, you’ll be certain about your decisions. Then, you’ll know that even if something ends, you’ll be okay because this eclipse won’t take anything from you that you don’t want to let go of.
It also means that by then, you’ll clarify how you want to move forward in relationships and partnerships while simultaneously giving significant others a second chance to accept it and utilize it, so as they make the necessary changes so you can continue together into a new chapter.
You see… in every case, all transformations will happen for your own good.
It’s positive that this solar eclipse features a series of favorable aspects that contribute to resolving all these back-and-forth thoughts, emotions, and feelings of self-worth, in the best possible way.
Mercury is conjunct Venus and Neptune. Thoughts and words will be decisive yet filled with kindness and grace. Forgiveness -even if you’ve been hurt, is achievable.
Mercury, North Node, Venus, and Saturn conjunct provide the emotional and psychological maturity through which you’ll make reevaluations and choices with empathy and understanding.
This stellium in Pisces serves as an emotional springboard from which you’ll leap forward to take your next step. With this eclipse, new relationships will begin; existing relationships will deepen; decisions about commitments will be made.
This happens because Venus and Mercury began their retrograde journey in Aries but now return to Pisces, making communication heartfelt, making you empathetic, and making you giving and sharing in ways that touch both heart and soul.
Mercury and Venus are baptized in Neptune’s vision before forming conjunctions with the North Node (karma, destiny, fate aiming to move you forward) and Saturn (the planet that maintains the dreams through practicallity).
Set boundaries; feel from your heart; materialize what you desire.
Especially Venus will conjunct Saturn twice. Once during its retrograde phase and once again shortly after when it will turn direct. This is a prolonged Venus-Saturn conjunction bringing completion of reevaluations followed by forward progress where relationships are built; commitments made; and healthy boundaries full of emotion are established through shared dreams.
Uranus at 24° Taurus sextiles Saturn, North Node & Venus aiding the coming changes combining the old with the new, and pushing you to make the required next steps.
Mars, the eclipse ruler, in Cancer prioritizes intuition and emotion in shaping decisions.
In its trine to Venus it speaks of passion, love, creativity; In its trine to Saturn it adds practicality, intuition, and gives emotional maturity in your decisions.
The only challenging of the Eclipse is the Mars square aspect to Chiron in Aries. An aspect that reveals your deepest fear. That leaving behind the past, may hurt, like a thorn. Yet, be reminded of the wisdom of a quote by Anne Bronte:
“He who dares not grasp the Thorn, must never crave for the Rose.”
Wishing everyone a fruitful Eclipse!
