Full Moon Penumbral Lunar Eclipse in Libra

We will be experiencing a Full Moon Penumbral Lunar Eclipse on March 25 at 5° in the sign of Libra at 3 a.m. EDT.  This is a precise alignment of the Sun, the Earth and the Moon in that order, where the earth obscures the Sun creating periods of darkness for those that are influenced by this alignment. 

Because it is in the sign of Libra, there is a degree of peace and a soothing energy which often surrounds us during this event.  This is a time to bring harmony and balance into anything that we have not yet brought to the surface in our lives. This can be emotional issues and it is time to look within even when what surfaces may not be overly pleasant. We must see things as they are and face these parts/issues to deal with them.  Some of this may stem from our past and anything that has been left behind and is currently unresolved will now surface into our conscious self.

We can become more self-aware of our lives and its circumstances, and this applies particularly to relationships, hopefully finding a balancing point where we can reflect on what has been unsaid and now needs to be spoken.  You must be honest but at the same time remember that others may not have that strength. 

This Eclipse may activate current transits or progressions that have been in place in our personal charts, and it will be important to find meaning behind what these charts indicate.  The house placement of the Eclipse will speak in terms of the area of life involved. If it activates any other significators in the chart, you will have to carefully evaluate what this might mean.  It is time to assess life’s conditions and reflect and then take action to eliminate any current issues left unresolved in order to move ahead in your life’s journey.

This can be an important period in life, and it would be wise to use these energies to advance and remove what no longer needs to be in place.  Always use the energies in their ultimate best expression and take into consideration the effect that your actions will have on others. Connect with the ones you love!

SOLAR ECLIPSE

On October 14, 2023, we will experience a Solar Eclipse at 21° in the sign of Libra.

 

Anyone with planets or angles within three degrees of this placement in their natal chart, either by conjunction or opposition or to a lesser degree by the other major aspects will be influenced by this eclipse. Check the placement of this eclipse along with the aspects it makes, and the natal configurations attached to this position in your chart. Natal potential will give a clear understanding of the energies in place and their potential in your specific case. Each chart will have different dynamics in place and although the energies of a Solar Eclipse often bring the same conditions into life, the areas of life will differ from person to person.

 

Solar Eclipses, although quite different from a Lunar Eclipse, often signify the likelihood of some form of stress or in some cases a crisis. With the Solar Eclipse, there is an indication of the initial stages or beginnings where there are opportunities, although we are often hard-pressed because what we feel comfortable with in our life, now has changes in place. These changes can be quite vast and will be defined by the placement of the solar eclipse in the chart. What is now in place (beginning phases of this transformation or alteration) will set the theme for the future, some six months ahead, although many Astrologers believe the influence of these solar energies lasts much longer than six months.

 

There is a sense of destiny in place often with karmic indictors and in this case related to relationships of significance because of the influence of Libra. As mentioned, this Solar Eclipse is at 21° Libra. This can be a time of balancing and creating harmony in the sphere of relationships. Harmonizing is especially essential, and it is important that we also check the opposite house (Aries) to see which other area of life will be affected. If there are planets in your chart at this position (21 degrees give or take 3 degrees of influence) this placement will also be affected by this event.

 

E.g. Someone with their Neptune in the tenth house conjoining this placement with the eclipse at close proximity, would have indications of spiritual evolution or psychic indicators that would pertain to the career path or goals and aspirations. Neptune would evoke something connected to the psychic realm or some spiritual offerings. This will also affect the home and family because of the fourth house location in opposition to the tenth house placement of this eclipse. The tenth house alignment would be where this Solar Eclipse makes its mark.

LIBRA FORECAST CONTINUED

We continue our look at aspects affecting Sun in Libra readers. See our previous post on Monday for more forecasting www.holmastrology.com/post/libra-forecast

 

Neptune and Jupiter are both currently (September 2023) in retrograde suggesting that they are not operating to their full potential. Neptune can make things feel unclear while Jupiter can influence you into thinking you could make anything happen. There are many more outlets for these energies, but it is safe to say that when they turn direct (December 2023) things will be clearer, more concise, and you will look at your objectives in a more reasonable light without overexaggerating the potential. The areas of life involved in these equations will be marked by their house positions and the house position of the Sun for those with their Sun in Libra.

 

The quincunx aspect is a 150° angle between two placements in your chart. You can allow an orb of 5° to see if these placements affect your Sun. A quincunx also known as the inconjunct is a challenging aspect which speaks of adjustments that need to be put in place. Once these adjustments have taken hold, things will flow more smoothly. As time passes you will recognize that the changes were essential to your goals and aspirations.

 

The Sun represents who we are and is connected to our path in life along with other indicators in the natal chart. The Sun speaks of inner personality and objectives available to us which we can either act upon or pass by. The Sun is our essential self and indicates our mission and who we are in personal terms. Not everyone sees certain Sun sign energies but with Libra, we are seen as someone who is seeking equilibrium, calm and also wanting fairness and justice to prevail. (See our previous post on Sun in Libra characteristics for more details www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-libra-september-23-2023).

 

Sun in quincunx to Neptune often suggests that things are not as clear as they could be although when this placement of Neptune moves into direct motions (in many cases and depending on the rest of the chart), things often clear up. This can relate to relationships, goals, occupation, plans and the general direction of life and in some cases in mystical or religious terms. Again, review the house placements.

 

Jupiter tends to expand on situations, and growth is often apparent even when it is in retrograde (not as prevalent as when in its direct motion). Jupiter often brings good luck, an ease in obtaining benefits and opportunities to advance. When not operating in optimal ways Jupiter can create feelings that nothing can go wrong. Even when we make mistakes we may feel that we did not do anything wrong, and that things will eventually turn out better. In many cases this is still true but for now make your objectives practical.

LIBRA FORECAST

As mentioned in our post September 20, the Sun moved into the Cardinal, Air sign of Libra on September 23, 2023.  See our posts at www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-libra-september-23-2023  Here is our Libra forecast (transits) for 2023

 

With transiting Uranus remaining in the sign of Taurus reaching its lowest point of 19° towards the end of 2023 and into 2024, those with their Libra Sun within orb of these degrees will experience a quincunx. The quincunx can be a bit of a challenging aspect as it speaks of the need for adjusting their life’s circumstances. This can relate to relationships or goals in life, and it may not be an easy alteration. Uranus acts in unexpected manners although it does provide a degree of warning of what needs to be done.

 

Uranus’ action is swift and can be erratic although the changes will be what is required at the time and the need for change has likely been in place for some time.

 

There is also an upcoming Solar Eclipse at 21° Libra which will certainly touch those within a 3° approach to this degree with their Sun or other placements of planets and angles within their chart. (We will be discussing the importance of this upcoming event in a future post).

 

Jupiter is also in early degrees of Taurus having an influence on what unfolds in the quincunx. T Neptune will play its part as well being in the final stages of Pisces also making a quincunx to those with their Sun in these degrees.

 

In general, this upcoming period certainly suggests that adjustments are necessary for those with important connections related to these positionings.

 

More will be written in upcoming posts about the influence of these positions in the natal chart, but for a personal analysis contact an experienced Astrologer.
