The Eclipses are Coming! August 28 and September 11, 2007
Eclipses mean changes, good and bad. Where they happen in your chart determines what part of your life they will affect. Eclipses bring significant events into our lives -- marriage, divorce, death, birth, career change, etc. Solar eclipses usually mean new beginnings, and lunar eclipses represent finishing things. They are the universe's way of cleaning house, and bringing us in line with life's energy. Even "bad" events bring us to better places. If an eclipse falls near your birthday, the following year will be eventful for you. Also, if it is near your birthday or your rising sign, watch out for health issues. Be sure to eat healthy, get enough rest, etc. Eclipses can be felt a few weeks prior to or up to 30 days past the actual event.
The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on August 28 will be a total eclipse and will be visible in the US, but not in Europe or Africa. The western coastal states of the US will be able to see the complete eclipse, but the rest of us will be able to view the eclipse as the moon sets. The eclipse will begin at 3:53 AM eastern time (12:53 AM pacific), and will end at 9:21 AM eastern time (6:21 AM pacific). The greatest part of the Eclipse will be visible at 6:37 AM eastern time (3:37 AM pacific). Mercury and Uranus will also be at an opposition on the same day. We may be feeling rather irritated to say the least, and some of us will be looking to our addictions for a crutch. If you can get past the irritation and maintain your sobriety, this could be an extremely spiritual Full Moon. This would be an excellent time to "Let go, and Let God." Our connections with our higher power on this day could be tremendous.
The Solar Eclipse in Virgo on September 11 will be a partial eclipse and will be visible from parts of South America, Antarctica and the South Atlantic, and the greatest part of the eclipse will occur at 8:31 AM eastern time. This eclipse will be at an opposition to Uranus and a square to Mars, and this could leaving us feeling tense, to say the least. There is a potential for hysterics, especially in females, and males could be losing their tempers. We may go extremes on this day, or we may experience some sudden outbursts. Those of us who can direct this energy into a positive outlet may find that we are ready for a new project, and we will be ready to look at all of the details. Any projects that seem different from the norm will probably succeed.
The Lunar Eclipse on August 28 will be at 5 degrees Virgo and Pisces. If you have any planets at between 3 and 7 degrees in Gemini or Sagittarius, this eclipse could be especially difficult for you. The Solar Eclipse on September 11 will be at 18 degrees Virgo. If you have any planets between 16 and 20 degrees Pisces, Gemini or Sagittarius this eclipse may cause extra stress. Also, where these eclipses land in your houses determine what areas of your life that will be affected. If you are interested in knowing more, you can also Order a Transit Report.
