Eclipses appear often in the mythology of
different cultures most often as symbols of obliteration, fear, and the
overthrow of the natural order of things. Eclipses were the great omens
of fated, large-scale events. The word eclipse comes from a Greek word
meaning "abandonment." Quite literally, an eclipse was seen as the Sun
abandoning the earth.
Every six months, eclipses show the
turning points in our lives. They indicate what we are to accomplish for
the following year to 3 years. They bring in news and events that are
sometimes "out of the blue". Time seems to speed up. In a positive
sense, eclipses can clear what may obscure the way forward. Remember
that the key words for eclipses are emphasis and crisis. Eclipses are
contrary to the status quo. If impacted by one of these eclipses, your
life will not run on the same track it has been on. But that can be a
good thing.
The ancients believed that eclipses that
align with the Dragon’s Head (North Node of the Moon) are beneficial and
bring a rush of energy and things into your life. Eclipses that align
with the Dragon’s Tail (South Node of the Moon), show loss or where
sacrifice or service to others is required. It is about giving back and
practicing compassion.
This is a time of letting go of old
emotional habit patterns and letting go of the people that you have
become dependent on. This Eclipse affects two signs; Gemini and
Sagittarius. The sign of Gemini rules writing, teaching, lectures, the
media and all forms of communications. We may see the death of a
renowned writer or professor. There will be more news about who owns
information. Sagittarius rules foreign countries, the law and higher
education. This eclipse could bring up more news items about how we
communicate with foreign countries. What laws we have to put in place to
protect information.
This eclipse is in a square to Mars at
13 Virgo. This eclipse could increase the sabre rattling that is going
on in the world. This eclipse also conjuncts Mars in the US chart in
the 7th house of open enemies. It could be our sabre that is rattling.
This eclipse affects Silvio Berlusconi, the Prime Minister of Italy. His Jupiter in the 3rd
house is exactly in the same degree as this eclipse. Those who don’t
know astrology really well think that Jupiter only brings good things.
Jupiter is expansive and excessive and it can cause you to expand right
out of where you are, in this case, his job. The eclipse in the 3rd and 9th house could mean that the news media (3rd) and other countries (9) were the cause of his downfall.
The Lunar Eclipse gives us
opportunities to break out of our current cycles and move on to a
different level. A Lunar Eclipse can make us more aware of our cycles
and patterns, and our unconscious motivations. Lunar Eclipses can bring
up old memories and feelings. As a full Moon, a Lunar Eclipse tends to
bring completion or endings. On a Lunar Eclipse something will end and
on a Solar Eclipse something will begin. A Lunar Eclipse is an
opportunity to break habits or eliminate socially conditioned patterns
of thought and behavior that stand in the way of self realization.
Full moon eclipses can bring things to
completion that you have been working on. You can finally make decisions
about issues that you have been thinking about. The Sun opposite the
Moon, lights up the Moon and brings previously unexamined areas of your
life into awareness.
Lunar Eclipses are more emotional than
Solar Eclipses. Because a Lunar Eclipse only happens on a full moon,
two houses in your natal chart will be affected.
An eclipse tends to emphasize matters
related to the house it falls in on your natal chart or what planets it
conjuncts, or opposes. The areas ruled by the houses or planets will
demand more attention, thought, energy, and time from you, at least
until the next Eclipse. Eclipses open doors and invite us to come in,
illuminating and stimulating areas of our lives that need our
attention.
Look for the houses in your chart that
contains 0 to 4 degrees of Sagittarius or Gemini for the impact of the
Solar Eclipse of November 25, look for the house containing 15 to 21
degrees of Gemini and Sagittarius for the impact of the Lunar Eclipse of
Dec 10. To see a brief list of items covered by the different houses
in your birth chart click here
Look for a planet(s) in your natal
chart located at 2 degrees of Sagittarius or Gemini for the Solar
Eclipse impact of Nov 25, and a planet(s) at 18 degrees of Gemini and/or
Sagittarius for the Lunar Eclipse impact of Dec 10. To see a list of
keywords for the planets, click here.
