If you have
natal planets either conjunct, opposition or square to this position, primarily
the Conjunction and Opposition, you will be affected by these energies, and
possibly in a powerful manner depending on other transits in place at the time
when this eclipse is in effect. You can
allow a 3° orb of influence, so planets between 7° and 13° of this placement in
the appropriate signs will be influenced.
All major aspects will have some effect on this placement.
A few
months leading up to this timing will begin to show what has potential to
manifest. This influence can be strong
for about one year, but last as long in years as the eclipse lasts in hours. According to www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2024-october-2 the first location to see the
partial eclipse begins at approximately 11:43 a.m EDT and the last place to see
the partial eclipse ends at approximately 5:47 EDT.
Since this
eclipse is in the sign of Libra (you always must take into consideration the
sign and the house placement of any eclipse), the main influence will have to
do with relationships. This may include
your spouse or significant other, close friends or business associates. It involves fairness, justice, balancing,
harmonious yearnings and perhaps making things right.
It often
encompasses new beginnings or endings and opportunities for significant
change. There is often an important
shift where we must let go of what was or the past and move ahead possibly in a
new direction. Important life events are
often tied to when Eclipses’ energies take hold, and again the house position
will define what area of life may be involved.
Transformation and change are key characteristics of eclipses. Sometimes it can bring unexpected change when
we least anticipate it, but this change is often just what is needed in the
long haul.
Transiting
Mercury is closely tied to the conjunction of the Sun and Moon during this
eclipse, and this suggests that the mind is closely tied to what takes
place. You may have been thinking about
things for some time and now is the time for action or when action takes
place. Sometimes destiny seems to
prevail and much of what takes place is beyond our control. Things change because they need to. Intensions play a big part in what unfolds,
and goals also come into play.
Along with
Transiting Mercury, we also have a Grand Water Trine with Venus (love and
affection), Mars (sexual energy and drive) and Saturn (a steadying effect which
can solidify things and bring stability).
The Grand Water Trine suggests emotional connections have the potential
of working well and moving along nicely.
You are self-sufficient at handling any events that may unfold, and you
do not depend on others to do the work necessary or to move you in the intended
direction. The emotions may be kept
under wraps at this time as you know you can handle anything that may surface,
and things flow without obstruction.
Embrace the
energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies
of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.
