SOLAR AND LUNAR ECLIPSES



We had a solar eclipse on September 13 and will have a lunar eclipse on September 27.  The upcoming lunar eclipse falls in the sign of Aries at 4 degrees and 40 minutes.  The recent solar eclipse was in the sign of Virgo at 20 degrees and 10 minutes.  These signs are significant because their energies and characteristics are what will be expressed. 

For example the recent solar eclipse in Virgo would affect the working environment, daily routines, health and diet and organization. 

The Lunar eclipse is in the sign of Aries suggesting inner confrontation, seeing the perceived you - both the thought positive and negative characteristics.  It will also initiate action into our view of self and help us to push forward in making changes so that we can move ahead in our spiritual journey.  The affects will be very personal
.
It is important to understand that these eclipses will initiate action.  Many believe that free choice is not always offered, although in some cases this may not be.  We may have control over the event but we will certainly have control over how we adapt to the changes which are often pushed into action during these periods. 

Eclipses often bring about unexpected change where we tend to break away from outdated or stagnant aspects of our lives.  The range of what this encompasses is very wide, but looking at what house the eclipse falls in within our natal chart (4 degrees Aries for the lunar eclipse) will provide us with information as to what area of our lives will be affected.

The timing of events to unfold will vary and can take up to six months before they are expressed in our life.  Once we understand the area of life is affected, we should not acted upon them for at least 1-2 weeks after the eclipse as this will allow the energies to settle somewhat. 

Carl Jung suggested that during these events we get a glimpse of what he termed “our shadow self”.  In other words we get glimpses of both the positive and negative traits of our personality and thereby we have an opportunity to rid ourselves of any unwanted traits.  It should be pointed out, however, that these traits that we have learned to identify with are ego generated so we have to view them from a non-ownership perspective.  This period could be termed as a moments of self-realization.

As mentioned, many fear the coming of eclipses, but once again we have to come to terms that fear is also ego generated.  Once we acknowledge ourselves or learn to identify points of self, we can make adjustments so that anything we view and term as negative can be understood, accepted and then converted into something positive.  Our inner guides will assist us during these times and will help us understand our true self, which in reality is our inner or higher self. 

Intuitively we know just what it is that we need.  If we learn to listen, we will hear.

This is a time of new beginnings, where flaws are revealed and a new chapter of life begins on some level of understanding, as well as possible changes taking hold in life.  Again, what no longer serves us, we need to let go of in order to assist our evolving story.  Re-evaluation of self will determine our next step to be taken.
