Degree: 21°07′ Libra

South Node Eclipse

Type of Eclipse: Annular

Eclipse Time: 15:55:06 UTC

 

On October 14th , an important Solar Eclipse takes place in the sign of Libra. A New Moon will eclipse the Sun for five minutes, bringing a temporary void, a change of consciousness and a cosmic reboot to our lives.

Solar Eclipses always act as powerful catalysts and bring events that are always transformative and transforming. Sometimes they are a cosmic leap forward, a cosmic push, while other times they are sharp turns in the path that fate has laid out for us, ending one chapter of our lives , and opening a new one at the same time. Solar Eclipses have a profound impact on our lives and always manifest in the form of events.

This Solar Eclipse in the sign of Libra will definitely change our relationships and our approach to them until now.

 

The Moon’s Nodes rotate on the Aries – Libra axis highlighting karmic choices and events that are meant to bring balance and justice in the area of “us” versus “them”.

An evolutionary lesson they bring is on the one hand to develop a healthy sense of individuality, and on the other to be able to foster and nurture relationships with significant others.

Another lesson is to stop needing others when it is of no benefit to us and to be able to be independent and self-reliant.

This Libra Eclipse is a mirror.

Each of you will look at yourself in the mirror and depending on the state of balance within yourselves or your relationships you will see a different reflection.

Those of you who compromise and tend to always please others will realize that this may be good in the short term, but in the long term it is something that creates problems in your relationships.

You deserve to be yourself and not let others have their way with you.

Those of you who have a strong need to be with someone else, you may now realize that romantic daydreams and the need to belong somewhere, are only hindering your growth.

Light your inner flame first and get comfortable with being alone.

If you are already in a balanced relationship, this eclipse will bring unexpected events that can be disappointing and require adjustments to be made. This eclipse will be a test for both of you. But it has the potential for healing that will ultimately strengthen the bonds between you.

Something big is happening…

 

Uranus forms a quincunx aspect with the Sun and Moon. A sudden impulse, a bump in our safety zone, the need for renewal, or the perfect opportunity to get rid of unhealthy relationship patterns and start over.

The events that this eclipse brings will lead to difficult decisions. Should we break up or continue to compromise? Do we break up or discuss ways to regain balance?

Mercury in Libra and in close conjunction with the Eclipse, brings unexpected news, requires an adjustment in the way we perceive things and a need for original or even radical ideas. Diplomacy for diplomacy’s sake is NOT a solution. It will only perpetuate the vicious circle. The necessary discussions will therefore take place.

Negotiate the issues, but be neither indecisive or too soft.

Determination, boldness and taking action are essential with this eclipse. As Mars in the sign of Scorpio forms a trine aspect with Saturn in Pisces, it is important to delve into your feelings and act based on them.

But expression and actions must have responsibility and maturity so that a way forward can eventually be found. A path that, yes, aligns with the shared relationship dream, but does not rob you of your own identity.

This eclipse is a karmic test.

 

Venus is still in a sextile aspect to Mars. Two planets ruling respectively the South and North Node of the Moon, and aiding in our evolutionary path.

There is love or the longing to share love. There are tender feelings to share, or sadness because we don’t have someone to share them with. There is a dream that is disturbed or a disappointment that comes and we must overcome it.

Whether alone or in a relationship with this eclipse we will have to take a little second look at reality. To do a reality check.

A difficult reality check because Chiron in Aries is in opposition to the Sun and Moon.

This Eclipse will be a little pinprick, like that of a needle. A little pain, a more or less painful turn inward, a temporary numbness that will wake you up, you and others alike, taking you out of your comfort zone.

To see reality. To act. To confront traumas of the past. To face the wound.

With courage.

To see yourself for who you are.

To see the other for who they are.

Whether single and alone, or in a relationship, the point is to find a balance of needs, and to do the necessary healing.

If you are in a relationship and this eclipse brings something unexpected then it is important to stand together and overcome the situation together.

This eclipse is a karmic test.

 

Pluto has turned direct four days before this bittersweet eclipse.

The necessary introspection has been completed. The dark elements are slowly being removed. We are rediscovering our psychic power after a process of digging into the depths of the psyche. Soul cleansing. Removal of what is not needed. Transformation. Chrysalis to Butterfly.

What this Solar Eclipse in Libra does is that it creates space for new life to grow. There may be some pain, but that is exactly the key. Transformational healing and change for the better is on the way.

For the universe is wise and knows best.

What may seem like pain now will only seem like a little pinprick later.

Whether you’re in a relationship or not.

Tame Your Dragons!

And here we are again in eclipse season.

The time of change…

The season of transformation…

 

The time to step forward. Dynamic beginnings but also difficult closings.

The first of the two, the Solar Eclipse, takes place on April 20, at 29°50° of the Sign of Aries. It is both a New Moon and a Solar Eclipse which is linked to the New Moon which has preceded and occurred on the day of the Spring Equinox at 0° Aries. The Beginning of the Beginnings!

 

The Universe wise and provident has plans for you!

First, it plants the Archetypal seed in you with the New Moon at 0° and now, from the anaeretic degree at 29° it returns to complete the process.

The New Moon was the Beginning of the Beginning and this Solar Eclipse at the last degree of Aries is the Completion of the Beginning or… the Undoing of the Beginning! You will decide!

 

It’s like you took 30 steps in the past month. 1 step, 1 degree, each and every day. Steps of courage. Full of bravery, individualization.

You’ve seen who you are, measured what others are. And now it’s the final test.

Events will come with this eclipse.

Its results will be seen.

Its influence will be experienced.

 

You will learn, you will see, you will realize aspects of your SELF.

It’s the test of YOUR potential. Of the dynamic you have as a personality. In how you relate. In how you cooperate. In how you work, in how you try, and in what you do, because it is about your momentum to begin to lift you up based on the foundations you laid with the New Moon.

If you are bold, you will have victories. If you have brashness, you will be met with stubbornness. If you have anger and tempers, you will see everything you started come crashing down and be undone…

There is no room for selfishness with this eclipse. None!

 

What it asks of you is to move forward. Just one more step. At 0° Taurus.

That’s where you have to go.

That’s where the North Node is also pointing. You need to be patient and persistent, to show reliability. You have to take away every impulse, every rush, every selfish tendency to fight and quarrel.

And Pluto in Aquarius brings you the ultimate test, that of how you manage your own Power.

Your will shall be tested, your patience will be tested.

You will see your Shadow straight in the face as it will be impossible for you to function in a team, collectively, but instead you shall want everybody to see and acknowledge your new sense of identity.

You ask… You deserve… And you find your Power! But your new self is still being born. You are still coming out of the cocoon and the pains of your transformation should not make you pushy.

You will not overcome obstacles if you are obsessed.

 

You’re in conflict between who you really are and what others expect of you… Because they still haven’t seen your change! They still don’t understand the tremendous power you’ve gathered in the process of moving forward!

Let go of all attempts at control, in relationships, partnerships and within the family. Be patient.

Paternal and maternal figures are causing you tension, you yourself is the tension. This is your test. Otherwise the explosive force that is born within you, unbridled and abrupt will come out and everything will come crashing down!

This Eclipse wants to evolve you. Away from the South Node in Scorpio, away from anything that causes you complicated and extreme emotions.

It wants to take you to the North Node. Towards peace, tranquility and achieving what you have the power to accomplish to find your emotional security and worth!

 

It has Jupiter conjunct the Sun and Moon. There is tremendous potential for you to grow.

You are YOUR only obstacle. Lower your tone. Reign in your anger even though you are boiling inside. Jupiter will give you the favour you deserve and the prospects you desire once you can control the dichotomy of your emotions.

 

It has Mars in Cancer, thankfully a somewhat gentler and yin energy as your will power that is in sextile to Uranus and Mercury in Taurus in this Eclipse.

Claim gently. Show concern before you ask others to do the same to you and to care about what you need. Be a mother to the paternal and maternal figures that you feel pressing on you.

Move and think slow and steady.

 

Only you are the judge of yourself and not anyone else. See your repressed desires and overcome them so that you do not hinder YOUR evolution. Let go of emotional outbursts and self-centered demands.

Saturn in a trine to the South Node and in a sextile to the North Node promises that you can succeed. You can overcome any obstacle and win victory not by exercising control but by maintaining control of your own SHADOW.

Focus. With confidence. Determination. Direction.

 

You will experience a powerful, dynamic, transformative, debilitating, debilitating, pressing, rebirthing, ground-breaking, evolutionary, karmic, and uplifting eclipse!

 

It is the test of your strength. It is the test of your will.

But it is also the culmination of a Universal process whose only purpose is to grow your Shadow for a while before you are finally empowered and freed from your own weaknesses, which will come into the Light, just as the Sun, will shine again at the end of the eclipse!

 

Wishing a wonderful Eclipse to all of you!

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN SCORPIO 25 OCTOBER 2022

A powerful, Solar Eclipse takes place on October 25 at 2°00′ of Scorpio.

It affects us all regardless of the Zodiac sign we are.

It will be strongly experienced by Scorpios, Taurus, Leos and Aquarians born in the first five days of their Zodiac Sign or those of you who have personal planets or points in your horoscope at degrees 00°- 05° of the above Zodiac Signs.

 

Each eclipse is a gateway through which, once we pass through, nothing is the same as before, and brings events that transcend us, thus leading us, willingly or unwillingly, to a new evolutionary path.

This particular Solar Eclipse is transformative and invites us to confront our obsessions. It has a strong existential character and on a psychological level it is the catalyst that will bring events that will make us question our value, our relationships, but will also help us find our strength.

 

Hidden in the Scorpio sign is the philosophical stone itself. This is the possibility of Alchemizing our own dark side and our capacity to be reborn from our ashes, emerging again with a consciousness that is brighter, and deeper than it was before.

The “capacity” I write… so the above is neither inevitable nor fated, neither unrelated to our choices and our will.

This Eclipse gives us the opportunity to move forward, but it requires that we do the necessary psychological work to detach ourselves from past obsessions and dark attitudes.

Our very own… but also those of others, since this eclipse is a New Moon, so it brings something new, and it is happening with Venus conjunct the two Lights (Sun and Moon). In other words, it emphasizes our relationships and how much value and importance we place on ourselves, both in them and out of them.

Her message is clear.

With the two lights near the South Node and Venus nearby, it emphasizes issues of emotions, self-confidence, self-esteem, how much we value the people around us, and how generous we can be.

And it’s all measured and weighed in the Karmic Scales created by Saturn squaring the North and South Nodes.

And in order to have a positive edge on the weighing of all of the above, what we are called to do is to face our own controlling or obsessive behaviors and stop them, or to finally stop tolerating and get rid of the toxic behaviors of others. Those with whom we are intimately connected, emotionally, symbiotically, and codependently, in relationships that are intense, complex, and deep.

 

Oh yes, this unbearable complexity of emotions is what this eclipse is calling us to transcend and follow the path of the North Node ruled by Venus, which is in the sign of Taurus. In other words, to shift to more simple, harmonious and peaceful relationships, rather than staying in the dark emotional waters of pressing emotions, created by our own inability to find our strength.

To move away from obsessions and toxicity is the theme of this eclipse which is also in an open square with Pluto in Capricorn (so we have once again the Scorpionic element emphasized), and for those who are ready, the Universe will help them to do it by bringing them events with from which they will begin a new journey of self-evaluation and understanding of their self-worth!

Unfortunately for those who are not ready, the Solar Eclipse in Scorpio will work completely the other way round and confront them with relationships, issues within relationships, and situations that will play out against them in an obsessive, vampiric, abusive manner, only to force them to do the necessary cleansing.

 

The only way to transcend negativity is through Pure Clean Love.

This is the second message of this Solar Eclipse in Scorpio conjunct Venus.

Love yourself first. Accept all the dark and negative emotions you are feeling. Only through fully accepting that you have them, and not beating up on yourself for having them, will you be able to view them, burn them, transmute them, and transform them into higher qualities.

Temporarily tune into whatever negative things you feel on an emotional level so you can move past them.

Love yourself. Let go of those who don’t treat you as you deserve. Sail towards the Light away from relationships that are causing you suffering.

Learn to value yourself first.

Every single thing, and every single person that makes you feel negative, is a blessing in disguise as it points the way to the exact opposite side. It’s calling out to you, go that way…not this way. Go to where the Light is.

So let’s go on our own to where our heart is telling us otherwise we will either go suddenly and swiftly through unanticipated and instantaneous changes in our relationships, at the best, or we will remain obsessively attached to the past or to the wrong people and the wrong relationships.

Some will get emotionally “stuck” with certain people with this eclipse in an attempt to find their worth through the acceptance of others.

Some will get some attention and interest that will fascinate them, but which they should be wary of since it will only bring them complicated situations, and vampirism of their energy.

Stay away from toxicities in relationships. Stay strong in what your heart loves, and don’t listen to the Sirens that the Dark Scorpionic passions of others, or your own, have placed in your path to Serenity.

Some lucky and fortunate ones will fall in love since such a Venus conjunction with an eclipse is indeed Karmic and Cosmic in character.

Depending on how your personal chart is, and since Mars will turn retrograde a few days after the eclipse, it could, for women, reintroduce a man from their past again. In this case it needs special attention since the idea, as we have said, is to get rid of baggage and fixations and to move forward and not backward.

In all cases, remain alert for twists and shifts in your romantic life in the coming period and give emphasis to your own personal harmony and balance while developments and events are unfolding.

 

Wishing a wonderful Eclipse to all of you!

The eclipse season is here and it starts with a powerful Solar Eclipse that takes place at 10°28’ of Taurus.

This is the first eclipse for 2022 and also the first eclipse that takes place with the nodes on the Taurus – Scorpio axis.

There will be a total of six eclipses on this axis on through to the first half of 2023 and this means that starting with this one, all eclipses till the 5th of May 2023 will highlight the same themes in relationships.

Themes that have to do with our sense of security, our tranquillity, and peace of mind and soul. Building more trust, getting past power plays, and how to cater to more emotional stable and fulfilling relationships will be at the fore front.

Yes, the path of evolution that the eclipses pave for us is filled with lessons on how we share and connect on a deeper level.

 

With the Solar Eclipse in Taurus on the 30th of April you should expect the unexpected. Things are going to move fast in the next months and change is coming.

What was once stable no longer is. Change is coming throwing, routine, laziness, stubbornness and unwillingness to move on, out of the window. The time is now for a radical new beginning in areas of life that have been stagnant or moved at a slow pace.

This eclipse will mark a change or a disruption. It will either be a refreshing beginning or a cataclysmic shake-up to finally shed our old skin and this depends on how well prepared we are to embrace the stirring of the old roots that the Universe is causing to get us out of our rut.

This is the mixed influence of this eclipse. For some bringing unexpected changes for the better, while for others it brings a cleansing crisis so that they can face their core truths and move forward.

But for most of you this eclipse is going to work in a very positive way, bringing even small miracles.

With the exception of Uranus in conjunction with the Eclipse, and the ever present square that Saturn is making to the nodes -meaning that the period is critical and requires responsible actions, all other aspects are positive.

 

The eclipse occurs on the same day as Venus’ wonderful conjunction with Jupiter in Pisces, on the degree where Venus, the planet of love, is in exaltation. This in no mere coincidence.

Venus rules Taurus and thus the eclipse itself, and is also the planet that disposes Uranus. So, Venus in a way contributes to making Uranus’ influence more harmonious.

Venus is powerful in this degree, and is between Neptune and Jupiter.

An extremely rare conjunction of the three planets in Pisces, which can bring vision and hope. The feeling that the Universe has our back, which fills us with positive emotions and the FAITH that the coming change is for our benefit.

Venus blends the eclipse’s energy of a refreshing start with both Value and Essence. It helps us on our path to growth. We appreciate ourselves more and by feeling in tune with ourselves, we can open up to others.

Venus is also in a sextile aspect to Pluto in an aspect that intensifies desire and helps existing relationships evolve to an even deeper level.

All of these energies have the potential to bring sweetness, romance, inspiration or even love out of the blue!

 

Why am I so optimistic?

Because this is a SOLAR ECLIPSE and solar eclipses always bring events!

Furthermore, because this is a Solar Eclipse that occurs near the North Node, and North Node eclipses push us out of the familiar, and thrust us toward our destiny.

 

One more reason?

The eclipse is conjunct ASTEROID EROS!

Eros represents the immense desire for MANIFESTATION. It represents dynamic energy, passion and will-to-power, including sexual passion and attraction. 

Eros’s symbolism includes the idea of ‘passion’ as suffering that is transformed to hope and creation. It is the force that creates (gives birth to) Cosmos out of the primordial Chaos.

These qualities of Asteroid Eros fit perfectly with the creative manifestations symbolized by the archetypes of Neptune, Venus and Jupiter in Pisces.

They also match the sextile aspect that the planet Mars makes to Uranus in this eclipse. An action aspect full of excitement, but an aspect that also brings desire and stimulation.

That’s why I’m optimistic.

 

Jupiter and Neptune are also sextile Pluto, which has just turned retrograde.

An aspect that invites us to dream and visualize, because transformation and manifestation are now possible.

They begin with the inner work of subduing our demons, and end with regaining our psychic power and leading to a renewal of ourselves and our relationships.

 

Powerful aspects, and as you can see this is a very POTENT eclipse!

So, surrender in faith to the rapid changes it brings your way. Feel your worth. Pursue your desires with passion.

For those of you that the eclipse will bring destabilization, know that it will be only temporary, and will ultimately work towards your future harmony.

SOLAR ECLIPSE 4 DECEMBER 2021

By astrologer, Andrew Ifandis

The Solar Eclipse takes place in the sign of Sagittarius, and is of particular importance for those of you who belong to the signs of the Mutable Cross (Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo and Pisces), born in the calendar periods from March 1 to 5, from June 1 to 5, from September 3 to 7, and from December 2 to 6.

Also to those of you who have personal planets or horoscope angles near degrees 11° – 15° of the above Zodiac signs.

It works positively for Aries born from March 31 to April 3 and for and Leos born from August 3 to August 7.

Watch out for tensions Scorpios, Leos, Taurus, Aquarians, those born around the end of the first decanate or born at the beginning of the third decanate of their Zodiac sign.

The Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius takes place on 4 December 2021 at 12°22′ of the Sign.

It is the last one that takes place on the Gemini – Sagittarius axis, and so it draws the curtain on a series of eclipses that for the past year and a half have been dealing with the dipoles: information and knowledge, between sterile knowledge and wisdom-filled truth.

Eclipses that have made us search for meaning and truth, as the non-stop stimuli of reality around us and a plethora of information (Gemini), we have been challenged to understand what is really going on and what the big picture is (Sagittarius).

All of this has created a huge confusion about what the “Truth” ultimately is, and a huge confusion in general.

 

The world is changing…

and with this Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius, it is now time to clearly discern and discover what is OUR personal Truth. The one that is within us, buried by the buzz and din around us.

Yes… “The wheat is separated from the chaff… The world is sifted” (*)

and this eclipse marks a whole new understanding and perception of things. A new perception and understanding for the issues relating to the house it affects on our horoscope, but also a new shift in our general ethics and philosophy.

Over the next six months, de facto, we will form a new value system and change mindsets.

This is the time wherein, whether we belong “here” or “there” finally locks, and where the contradictory dynamics we have experienced up to now, finally crystallize into an attitude of life. It is in the coming weeks, months that we will decide where we stand among the multi-prismatic kaleidoscope of division and many contradictory views.

But why is it that this happens now, why won’t it happen later, or why hasn’t it happened before? You probably wonder.

But the answer is very simple.

Because this is the LAST eclipse taking place on the axis of reception, understanding, analysis, perception, worldview, mentality, philosophy and ethics, and it will be 9 years before something similar.

This eclipse completes the processes and themes of all these previous eclipses.

It creates something new, and at its best, this eclipse is the seeding of a new understanding that makes us choose Wisely and see Clearly.

For some of you it may bring Faith, a broader understanding, or a different understanding of situations and things in the area of the horoscope that is involved.

To others it may bring fanaticism, ideological rigidity, and a tendency towards self-justification through a “I know it all” mindset. It may bring frivolity, irresponsible optimism or even blind faith that all is well and right.

In any case, what the eclipse does is that it brings the dynamics of the Saturn square Uranus right on our perceptive center!!.

The Saturn-Uranus square falls directly on the two Lights of the eclipse, since Saturn is sextile to the Lights, while Uranus is inconjunct, and thus a Grand Learning Triangle.

Grand Learning Triangle is an astrological formation that attempts to resolve the conflict between two opposing forces in a third way. Adopting a different look look at the problem.

That’s why I say this eclipse makes us see things differently.

It brings the Saturn-Uranus conflict and the conflict between truth and lies upon us. Within us. In our consciousness (Sun) and our Soul (Moon). It is a perceptual renewal and we will all understand this in the coming months.

For some the eclipse brings temporary and simplistic solutions to how they perceive the situation (sextile), but it will not resolve their inner doubts (cross), as eventually their desires (New Moon) will be eliminated (Eclipse) by the pressure (Square) of reality.

For others however, this eclipse will mean a renewal of their Faith and Hope (Jupiter ruler of the eclipse). The Third Eye will open… they will see the Truth. (Sagittarius).

Exaggerations? Not at all…

In the last eclipse of the year, the last eclipse on this axis, and happens near the last exact square of Saturn to Uranus which occurs on December 24th 2021. We all take our test these critical days….

After all, Sagittarius is the Path of Discipleship…

that either leads to the Tower of Wisdom, or to God…

 

The World is sifting (*) …   (*) Elder Monk, Simon Arvanitis

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN CAPRICORN - DECEMBER 2019

The Total Solar Eclipse in Capricorn is especially important for those who belong to the Signs of the Cardinal Cross (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn), and especially those who are born between March 23 – 27, June 24 – 28, September 26 – 30, and December 24 – 28. Also to those having personal planets or their Ascendant near the 02° – 06° degrees of these Signs.

A total solar eclipse, takes place on the 25th or 26th of December, depending on where on the globe you will be on Christmas night.

This is not only the last eclipse of the year but also the last eclipse of the decade. An eclipse that I call “The Gift Unwrapping for the Upcoming Year 2020”.

Fittingly with the Christmas and festive spirit of the holidays season, it is an eclipse that brings Jupiterian gifts and surprised smiles to many. But please keep in mind, that the fact that something is wrapped in a glossy or luxury paper, does not necessarily mean that when we open the package, the gift revealed is always liked, well – suited, or really needed. Some presents may be, some others… are not.

 

This eclipse belongs to a series of eclipses on the Cancer – Capricorn axis. The series began with the Solar Eclipse in Cancer, on July 13th 2018, continued throughout 2019, and concludes in the summer of 2020.

This cycle of eclipses in the Cancer – Capricorn axis coincides with the gradual approach of Saturn towards Pluto and their conjunction in the Sign of Capricorn on the 12th of January 2020.

It is a cycle which for the past 18 months has already brought, and for the most part of the next year will continue to bring, significant changes and events to Capricorn, Cancer, Libra and Aries Signs, since the effect of the eclipses combined with the conjunction of the two planets is stronger for them.

Let us remember though, that eclipses are important Astrological events and affect all of us without exception, some less and some more, and depending on the aspects they make on our personal natal chart.

The Solar Eclipse in Capricorn occurs at 04° 06’ of the Sign, and it has an exuberant, positive and accomplishing energy.

The Sun and the Moon are in a tight conjunction with Jupiter. This is the joy of the unwrapping of the gift. We smile and we feel good. We are optimistic, we have enthusiasm, the hopes are high. Ready to conquer the world as we unwrap the package.

There is excitement in the eyes of the small girl as she is holding the gift in her hands, standing by the Christmas tree.

 

All this positive energy is manifested from within the practical and earthy Sign of Capricorn, and that is why this eclipse has the potential to bring luck and success in matters that have to do with professional accomplishments. It is an eclipse that can boost our small business or to present opportunities for career advancement.

There is a Stellium in Capricorn.

Pluto, Saturn, Jupiter, the South Node, and the two Lights, all are in the Sign of Capricorn.

It is like the meeting of the executive board of the big company. Pluto is the representative of the main share-holders. He has the most influencing power. Saturn is the executive officer, the person with the responsibility for results. The South Node is the know – how of the company and the reliability its products have. Jupiter is the high spirits on the table, since the results of the year are very good and can support the company’s strategy and the goals for the New Year. The eclipse is the timing and the formulation of these goals.

Yes. This eclipse has a pivotal role for our future and advancement. It places an important seed. It is also an eclipse that happens just four days after the Winter Solstice, and it is in a sense linked with the energy of the solstice chart that describes the unfolding of events for the next three months.

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN CAPRICORN - DECEMBER 2019

The powerful Mars

Another aspect in the eclipse chart, is the sextile between Mars in Scorpio and the Saturn – Pluto conjunction. Mars in Scorpio is extremely strategic and the sextiles with the conjunction represent tremendous opportunities for empowerment.

In business words:

  • decision making can be acute,
  • perception is heightened
  • and strategy is aligned with the goals.

In simple words… this eclipse supports very positively the setting of new goals and the taking of decisions.

 

The surprise element

There is excitement in the energy of this eclipse.

The Sun and the Moon are trine to the planet Uranus. This eclipse will bring awakenings that will be of crucial importance to new beginnings and new endeavors. It will bring surprises also.

Jupiter is also trine to the Planet Uranus. This is a separating aspect that culminated nearly two weeks before the eclipse. This aspect brings luck, favors expansion and allows for positive change.

Can you now see the excitement in the eyes of the girl by the Christmas tree?

 

There is also a Venus square Uranus aspect in the chart of the eclipse that mainly affects those that have personal planets or angles between 6° and 8° degrees of the Fixed Signs. This is an aspect of squandering.

Outflow of money.

So… the executive board meeting has to be more realistic with projecting the figures for 2020 because future plans may cost more than anticipated.

Those of us that are near the above degrees, we have to be cautious with our finances for the next 3 months.

While this eclipse will give an immediate boost in the financial markets, gains will be short-termed, so be aware of investments.

Be prudent and do not take risks. Invest on new plans but keep some money aside.

Do not waste love, also. It’s the most valuable currency.

 

The opening of the gift – What is inside?

Eclipses do not work alone. They work in pairs. This particular total Solar Eclipse is linked to the Lunar Eclipse that takes place on the 10th of January 2020.

That is why this eclipse is like the gift unwrapping and the next one is the actual opening of the box that contains the “presents” of 2020.

This is why, as we shall begin to feel the energy of this eclipse, we shall expect positive things and we shall feel optimistic. Yes, this is a very positive eclipse but there is a small catch that we have to be aware of.

As we open the tall box of the gift, what is inside might be what we wanted! Ski boards of the most expensive brand… The gift is perfect.

But we have to be cautious as we slide with these swift new boards that we haven’t yet mastered, because we do not want to fall and break a leg.

Or what if in the following months we get a promotion and move to the south and sunny?  The boards will be put to the closet.

What I am saying, is that the Jupiterian influence has to be moderated. Do not take high risks because the following 6 months, and the next eclipses are more difficult. 2020 has many surprises, some of them good and some of them difficult.

Epilogue

This is a positive eclipse, that helps many of us with our plans and professional advancement. It works favorably for career, for general recognition and for accomplishing new things that are planted now.

All these will not come easily and will not come free. From within Capricorn all Jupiterian favor goes hand in hand with hard work, ethics and responsibility.

Be optimistic, start new things, take decisive actions, make these changes you have in mind and set goals. But be cautious and be prudent.

I wish everyone to enjoy the benefits of this eclipse.

Have a Merry Christmas and most importantly have a positive, rewarding and evolving New Year, 2020!

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN CANCER 2 JULY 2019

SOLAR ECLIPSE – 2 JULY 2019: The Past Is A Strange Place

Posted on by Andrew Ifandis
Sharing is caring:

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN CANCER 2 JULY 2019

This particular eclipse is especially important for those who belong to the Signs of the Cardinal Cross (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn), and who are born between June 30 – July 4, October 2 – 6, December 30 –  January 3, and March 28 – April 1. Also to those having personal planets or their Ascendant near the 08° – 12° degrees of these Signs.

We have now entered the eclipse season.

This is a period of significance.

 

1. The motions in the sky

In July the planetary movements peak with two eclipses, one important retrogradation and one electrically-charged square.

July starts with a Total Solar Eclipse that takes place on the 2nd of the month.

This eclipse is part of the series of eclipses on the Cancer – Capricorn axis. These eclipses began with the Solar Eclipse in Cancer on July 13 2018, and shall continue throughout 2019, up until the summer of 2020, when they will be completed.

This cycle of eclipses in the Cancer – Capricorn axis coincides with the gradual approach of Saturn towards Pluto and their conjunction in the Sign of Capricorn in January 2020, two parallel astrological events that signal a period of 18 months that brings significant changes to Capricorn, Cancer, Aries and Libra Signs, since for them, the effect of the eclipses combined with the conjunction will be more strong.

Remember though, that eclipses are potent Astrological events and affect all of us, more or less, without exception.

Each eclipse’s effect always depends on the aspects it makes and on the houses it activates, in our personal horoscope.

2. The Eclipse

The Total Solar Eclipse of July the 2nd takes place at 10°37′ of the Sign of Cancer and is an eclipse that has a strong resonance to the past while at the same time it opens a window towards the future.

Behind its plain appearance, it conceals rather intricate themes, and besides its main effect on the Cardinal Signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) it also plays an important role for those born on the first days of the Fixed Signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius).

 

3. The darkening of the Sun

A Solar Eclipse is the Moon coming in front of the Sun.

It is a momentary lapse of reason and consciousness, and a plunge deep into the unconscious. Needs are felt deeply and come to the fore. The mind stops, the heart beats, dark lingers for a while, until finally the sun comes out again, bringing something new for our lives, something for which most of the times, we are not prepared.

Under this Total Solar Eclipse in Cancer, issues that have to do with our sense of security, our home, parenting concerns or motherhood, as well as other personal issues that relate to the area of life that the Moon rules in our personal chart, will most likely concern us within the first days after the eclipse.

These same issues will culminate gradually as we approach the following Lunar Eclipse that will take place two weeks afterwards.

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN CANCER 2 JULY 2019

 

4. The North Node beacon

What is important, it is that the Sun and the Moon are near the North Node in this eclipse.

This means that the effect that the eclipse will have, regardless of how we may initially feel it, aims to move us forward. In the Sign of Cancer, “forward” may means among other things:

  • We become more aware and responsive to the needs of others in the area denoted by the house the eclipse falls.
  • After the initial shaking of the eclipse, we become more intuitive or emotionally intelligent.
  • Responsibilities that have to do with family or children may burden us more, but it is through this path that our fulfillment lies in the long run and we come to realize it.

 

5. A resonance to the past

I wrote some lines above that this Total Solar Eclipse in Cancer has a strong resonance to the past.

The very essence of Cancer, a Sign that is ruled by Moon, is a clinging to the familiar. In this Eclipse both our conscious (Sun) and our desire (Moon) are positioned in this Watery Sign, steeped with nostalgia and memory.

But as you may know, the past is a strange place…

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN CANCER 2 JULY 2019

In this particular eclipse the past, the memory of the past, or the nostalgia for it, may appear unexpectedly and overwhelmingly.

There are two important astrological facts that tie Time with Karma upon the axis of this eclipse.

The first one is the very tight applying conjunction of Saturn to the South Node of the Eclipse, a conjunction almost exact but for 0°06’ minutes!

It is as if Saturn tests us, trying to drag us back to the past, or to past habits, resisting our moving forward towards the North Node and our development.

Discipline, integrity and mastery over habits that have served their purpose needs to be applied.

Karmic cleansing must be applied. Release any fear rooted in the past, leave behind anxiety and pessimism rooted in the need for material security.

Stop testing yourself and your emotions trying to please authoritative persons, seeking career achievements, or trying to adjust to situations or relationships that have been proven rigid.

Care for those that care for you and start tuning to circumstances and relationships that provide not only material but emotional security also.

 

6. Re-prise

The second astrological factor is the fact that planet Mercury is going to turn retrograde on the 7th of July, just five days after the eclipse.

On the eclipse chart, Mercury is conjunct Mars that is situated at 0°31’ of Leo. From this degree Mars is activating once more the Total Lunar Eclipse of the 21st of January 2019.

Think of it for a moment… An eclipse in Cancer is activating a past eclipse that took place in Leo, some days before Mercury turns retrograde in Leo.

Not only this, but Mercury will be also passing retrograde over the previous eclipse’s degree.

It seems that Karmic are the ties that have to be dissolved for Leo, Scorpio, Taurus and Aquarius Signs born on the very first days or for those with personal planets or angles near the 0°-2° degrees of the Fixed Signs.

Persons or past lovers may re-appear, issues that those Signs felt with the previous eclipse are now being re-visited.

It is as if the universe is shouting,

“Re-visit, re-think and let go of the past. Re-cycle it in the dustbin and move on”.

“Release the Karmic burden”.

“Forgive and forget”.

This will not easily happen because both Mars and Mercury are close together and make a conjunction on the 9th of July, in between the two eclipses.

Right on this Mercury – Mars conjunction the planet Uranus is making a square that comes exact to planet Mars on July the 11th.

This is a power-charged square that electrifies the conjunction and may bring impulsive reactions, nervousness, restlessness and to make our tongue sharp.

It amplifies the tension, fuels anger, results in arguments and conflict.

SOLAR ECLIPSE IN CANCER 2 JULY 2019

Release, release, release…

This is the only constructive approach to the tension that builds up with this eclipse and to the demand for a Karmic cleansing.

A cleansing and moving forward that will most possibly happen only after the second eclipse that follows on the 16th of July, when the emotional climax will peak.

7. The eclipse effect for the Signs

(applies for rising sign also or natal placements of personal planets near the degree of the eclipse)

 

The eclipse is difficult highlighting issues relative to the houses and the planets it falls on in the natal chart, for Aries, Cancer, Libra Signs, especially those born on the last days of the first decan and the first days of the second decan.

It is empowerment through increased pressure and responsibilities for Capricorn Signs, because they tend to respond better to the Saturnine Energy, even if it’s oppressive.

It is a revisiting of the past or the past re – appearing in the form of persons or situations mostly for Leo and Scorpios and to a lesser extent for Aquarius.

It mostly works positive for Taurus, Virgos, Pisces, Gemini and Sagittarius Signs.

SOLAR ECLIPSE 5,6 JANUARY 2019

This particular eclipse is especially important for those who belong to the Signs of the Cardinal Cross (Cancer and Capricorn mainly, as well as Aries, and Libra) and who are born between January 3 – 9, July 4 – 11, April 2 – 8 and October 6 – 12.  Also to those having personal planets or their Ascendant near the 12° – 18° degrees of these Signs.

The partial Solar Eclipse on January the 5th or 6th, depending on your place in the globe, is the first of five in total, eclipses, three solar and two lunar, which will occur in 2019.

This eclipse is also part of the series of eclipses on the Cancer – Capricorn axis. These eclipses began with the Solar Eclipse in Cancer on July 13 2018, and shall continue throughout 2019, up until the summer of 2020, when they will be completed.

This cycle of eclipses in the Cancer – Capricorn axis coincides with the gradual approach of Saturn towards Pluto and their conjunction in Capricorn in January 2020, thus signaling a period of 18 months that will bring significant changes to Capricorn and Cancer Signs, and also to Aries and Libra Signs, since for them, the effect of the eclipses is stronger.

Remember though, that eclipses are strong Astrological events and affect us all, some less and some more, without exception, and depending on what aspects they make on our personal natal chart.

Request your Astrology Reading by Andrew Ifandis

The solar eclipse of January the 5th / 6th takes place at 15 ° 25′ of the zodiac Sign of Capricorn and is a “multidimensional” and complex eclipse with a variety of expressions, at cosmic and individual level.

Cosmic Level – A photo of the next six months

Focus: Saturn and Pluto

The Sun-Moon conjunction in the Capricorn Sign gives at a cosmic level a semester marked by significant changes in matters of how power is managed and administered world-wide.

The two Lights are in conjunction to Saturn and Pluto and also lie on the midpoint of the two planets. Saturn and Pluto is a combination capable of enhancing the ambitions, goals, and the control that exert, various governmental, corporate, or other hierarchical structures.

Saturn also forms a sextile aspect to with Neptune, an aspect that helps such designs and power visions to be realized, and be at the same time accompanied by a series of necessary reality checks, before they are put into effect.

Background: Jupiter and Neptune

At the same time, however, on the chart of this eclipse, and throughout the year, the square of Jupiter and Neptune is an aspect that undermines these plans, since it speaks of a social disappointment that will be diffused.

A disappointment that stems from the fact that people’s common sense of just (Jupiter in Sagittarius), and a yet unspecified but full of dynamism (square aspect) social vision (Neptune in Pisces), are not represented within the corridors of power.

Jupiter – Neptune in a square of extreme idealism and disillusion, which combined with the great influence that the planet Uranus plays in the general planetary setting, may bring massive mobilizations.

Depth of Field: Uranus and the Moon’s Nodes

The planet Uranus began to form a square to the Moon’s Nodes during the summer eclipses, an aspect that came to a precision in November 2018, and which continues in this and the next eclipse, as also in every New Moon and Full Moon up until mid-March 2019.

The continuous square of Uranus with the Moon’s Nodes brings the energy of the planet into the heart of the events for the period that follows.

Uranus was also the last planet to go retrograde in the dance of the many retrograde planets of the previous summer, and its liberating and disrupting energy will once more start to express when it returns to a direct motion.

When does this happen?

But on January 6 2019, from 28 ° 36 Aries

the same day with the eclipse!

All the sparkling electricity, and revolutionary or subversive action, that lay hidden, now finds an outlet, and the fact that this begins in the same day as the Partial Solar Eclipse, shows us emphatically that at the cosmic level we will see protests and upoars in the coming months.

 

Click Flash – Mercury, Mars and Uranus

Mercury from 1 ° 21 ‘of Capricorn is at the same time in two aspects, a harmonic and a dynamic one, which give even more evidence of how the tension will be expressed.

Mercury in trine to Uranus brings to the power holders strategic thinking and technocratic control, (preserving prestige through control of knowledge, of science and of innovation).

On a square aspect to Mars (who is powerful in the sign of his rulership) brings controversy and juxtaposition of ideas. Angry voices and action that conflicts with what the technocratic power communicates and concedes.

We see how a militant scenario is formed, as the same planet, Mercury, simultaneously stirs strategic changes for the status quo on one hand, and gives voice to protesting and defending the independence of the individual, on the other.

Two other equally important astrological elements that point to the eruptive nature of this eclipse are, the fact that the eclipse is on the Mars/Uranus midpoint and that Mars, already at 3 ° 20’ of Aries, will activate the eclipse soon, on January the 23rd.

That is shortly after the accompanying Lunar Eclipse that will take place on the 21st of the month.

Individual level

Imagine, now that we have analysed the eclipse elements, how all this multidimensional dynamics hidden in the eclipse chart could be expressed in our personal horoscope, giving the tone for the events of the next half-year.

Depending on how the chart of eclipse falls on our personal horoscope and the positive or negative aspects that it forms, possible manifestations may be:

Request your Astrology Reading by Andrew Ifandis

  • Circumstances force us to reformulate our strategy and set goals for issues that have to do with our business or professional plans.
  • We accept more responsibilities, but we also operate with a sense of integrity in the are where the eclipse relates to our personal horoscope.
  • It becomes important to check and calm down reactions and boiling disagreements with close persons.
  • The need comes to speak with vigour and seriousness so as to clarify situations that create cloudy landscapes.
  • We are recognized for our efforts in the professional field and we strengthen our position in the hierarchy.
  • We feel kind of oppressed and a weight in our relationship and this triggers a complete recapitulation of the how and the why with the other person.
  • Issues that have to do with our father or with persons of status and authority bring troubles and difficulties.
  • We become restrained in our working environment and searching for the “ideal job” needs our attention as we are not having realistic ambitions.

Part of the January Solar Eclipse hides pressure and eruptiveness, but at the same time hides the possibilities of empowerment, development and strengthening.

However it plays out, its effect will be possibly felt within a short time, since it will be activated soon, right after the Lunar Eclipse that is to follow.

LEO SOLAR ECLIPSE – 11 AUGUST 2018

LEO SOLAR ECLIPSE – 11 AUGUST 2018: Long Hot Summer – Part Three

Posted on by Andrew Ifandis
Sharing is caring:

LEO SOLAR ECLIPSE - 11 AUGUST 2018This summer is marked by three eclipses and many planets being retrograde during the eclipse season. The combination of these astrological factors is something that is relatively rare and it shapes an unpredictable, dynamic and hot landscape.

This eclipse is especially important for those who belong to the Signs of the Fixed Cross (Leo, Aquarius, Taurus, and Scorpio) and who are born between August 9 – 13, November 9 – 13, February 5 – 9 and May 7 – 11.  Also to those having personal planets or their Ascendant near the 16° – 20° degrees of these Signs.

PERSONAL ECLIPSE READING

 

Long Hot Summer – Part Three

The Solar Eclipse of August 11th is the final of the three eclipses of this long, hot summer’s eclipse season. It occurs in the Sign of Leo and succeeds the Solar Eclipse in Cancer and the Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius.

This eclipse functions as the aftermath of the highly dynamic period that preceded it. In a sense, it is a new beginning that follows after the realizations and the emotional peaks that we have experienced under the influence of the previous eclipses. Two powerful eclipses that have raised the volume both on personal and mundane level.

The first eclipse challenged our sense of security (Solar Eclipse in Cancer) and made us aware of power plays and pressures at home or in relationships.

The second eclipse, in its mundane expression, has resulted in unpredictable collective drama (Mars retrograde square Uranus and conjunct the South Node in Aquarius). With Mars, the planet of fire, dominant in this second and most difficult eclipse, we have unfortunately witnessed a July that was marked by wild forest fires, high temperatures that made new records and deadly heatwaves, across the globe.

The personal drama (Leo) has been brought into the collective (Aquarius) and the repercussions create political and collective re-action (Mars Retrograde in Aquarius) and re- thinking (Mercury Retrograde).

On a personal level, for many of us this second eclipse was realizations made and most possibly emotional outbursts that we were not able to control.

Now with this third eclipse, that is a New Moon, we will be pushed to make a re-start.

 

Potential to moving forward

LEO SOLAR ECLIPSE - 11 AUGUST 2018

The Solar Eclipse on the 11th of August takes place in Leo and is conjunct the North Node.

This is an aspect that has the potential of bringing intuitive awareness that will move us forward.

In the creative sign of Leo, this aspect with the North Node can work its best provided that we tune into our most noble and self-expressive qualities, detached from ego twists, and conceited mannerisms.

On the personal level we can work relationships with magnanimity and courtesy and bring about closure of past issues or crises which manifested under the influence of the previous Solar Eclipse.

On a mundane level, recent events make it all the more obvious that strong leadership qualities (Leo) and innovative coaching (Uranus ruling Aquarius) is needed in all forms of social and political interactions (Mars in Aquarius). Decisions and solutions are paramount. The times seem to be critical and the repercussions of this summer will be felt in the coming years.

However, both our personal adjustment as well as the integration of the eclipse’s energy into the social collective is a slow process.

LEO SOLAR ECLIPSE - 11 AUGUST 2018

Mercury squares Jupiter

The major aspect of the eclipse is the square of  the retrograde Mercury in Leo to planet Jupiter in Scorpio. This is an aspect that may express with exaggerations in communication, misjudgments and information overload.

On a personal level we have to be aware not to be obsessed or over passionate in debates and talks, to stay focused and to avoid misunderstandings.

On a mundane level it is a period that can lead to risky or misinformed decisions in senior ranks and to high volatility in stock exchanges.

 

LEO SOLAR ECLIPSE - 11 AUGUST 2018

 

The retrograde planets are dancing

Uranus has turned retrograde just four days prior to the eclipse and will continue to move backwards in apparent motion as seen from the Earth until January the 6th 2019 when it will reach 28° of Aries.

This is something very important because Uranus becomes the sixth consecutive planet that turns retrograde adding to the retro feeling of this summer.

The process of creating something out of this eclipses’ energy is slow.

Something new will come to be ONLY AFTER we have done our work with each and every one of the retrograde planets.

ONLY AFTER we have redefined where we stand.

With Uranus retrograde we have to look at things from a fresh perspective and re-define our personal truths. To embrace the new we have first to understand what holds us back whether this be a person, a job or ideas that no longer serve us.

Uranus retrograde process to shape our personal truth works very well with Neptune being retrograde also, because Neptune retrograde helps us to see with clarity and without idealizations. BUT in order to do so we have to first get rid of our personal delusions.

Saturn is also retrograde and we need to redefine our limits and to learn well the evolutionary or karmic lessons that it poses.

Pluto continues to be retrograde and the excavation of our soul is well underway. Pluto’s retrograde period is usually felt as a psychological process that seeks regeneration, purification and results in a healthy urge for survival.

Mars is retrograde and in a high energy state being out-of-bounds during all the eclipses, with his out-of-bounds movement peaking between 14th August and 19th of August, when Mars will reach an astounding declination of 26°29’ South of the ecliptic. Delays and frustration, anger management and redefining of actions is needed.

Mercury is retrograde since the previous eclipse in Aquarius and is also a key player in this eclipse since it is conjunct the two lights. How to form our personal truth and understand our best course of action when Mercury complicates things?

How will to reach to conclusions and make decisions or find solutions within this slow-moving bog of retrograde energy?

 

Uranus links this eclipse to the next one!

LEO SOLAR ECLIPSE - 11 AUGUST 2018

We astrologers see the big picture and understand the cycles.

Uranus has a major role in this summer eclipses, being in a square with Mars and making a 3 degree orb T-square with all the three eclipses Nodal Axis.

Uranus is the last planet in this dance of the retrogrades and its liberating energy will not be felt until it is direct again.

When it is that?

January the 6th 2019,

the very same day that the next eclipse occurs!

It is then, that this cycle of awakening will come to fruition with ideas, insights, liberating energy and manifestation of truth.

Additionally important to the fact that Uranus turns direct on the same day with the next eclipse, is the fact that the planet will once more tightly square the Nodal Axis of both of the winter eclipses .

It is as if these summer eclipses prepare us. They give us lessons and demand us to work with the retrograde planets so as we can be ready for the real changes (Uranus) that are about to come.

That is why this Solar Eclipse in Leo is pivotal.

Because it plays out as the last dress rehearsal with all of us the actors absorbing the script to its last detail prior to coming forth on the scene.

 

A trine aspect reaches its precision with this eclipse

Saturn in Capricorn, has been in an applying trine to Uranus in Taurus throughout the last weeks, and this aspect, with its liberating and grounding energy, comes to a precision of 0° 31’ in this last eclipse of the summer period.

This is the most helpful of all the aspects, since it allows us to manage the changes and the sudden events that resulted from the eclipses, in a responsible manner.

It gives a relative stability within the slow and demanding landscape.

 

A second trine aspect reaches its precision with this eclipse

Jupiter in Scorpio is trine to Neptune in Pisces, an aspect that gradually comes to a very close precision with this last eclipse, culminating on August the 19th.

This is a most benevolent aspect. A divide gift of hope and compassion. It is an aspect that can work as a “Deus ex Machina”, saving us at the last moment, granting hope, bringing gifts, spiritual awareness and increased Faith.

 

Sun drenched days are here again

This is the last eclipse of this long, hot summer and demands introspective work and re-evaluation to all areas pertaining to the retrograde planets.

Its energy is pivotal and has repercussions.

In the short-term, the Solar Eclipse in Leo of the 11th of August is slowly but firmly pushing us out of the bog and slowly builds on hope and a positive vision.

More importantly, it is a critical eclipse. It has a long-term effect and it prepares and grounds us for the shifting changes of the winter eclipses that hold a Uranian promise.

 

I wish you all ,to enjoy the last days of the summer drenched in Sun,

and the best to come,  from the marvelous Jupiter trine Neptune aspect.
