We have experienced a Full Moon, Lunar Eclipse today, Wednesday, May 26, 2021, Penumbral began at 4:47 am, full eclipse began at 7:11 a.m., full eclipse ended at 7:25 a.m. and Penumbral ends at 9:45 a.m. EST. In the Toronto area, the actual full eclipse will be below the horizon but the Penumbral beginning was visible. It is found in the sign of Sagittarius at 5 degrees and 26 minutes. This eclipse lasts a total of 5 hours and 2 minutes but the full eclipse will last 14 minutes.
For this eclipse to have an effect in your chart, you will need to have
planets within 3 degrees of 5 degrees Sagittarius (2 degrees to 8 degrees). The
conjunction, opposition and square will have the strongest impact, while the
trine and sextile will have an influence but not as profound.
The position of natal planets or angles to this degree and within three
degrees and how they tie in with other planetary aspects or angles will tell
the story regarding your personal life and the influence you will experience.
Lunar eclipses are said to last in months the duration of the eclipse in
hours (some individuals, however, say the effects of this event can last as
long as one year). This eclipse, being in the sign of Sagittarius, a
fire sign and its ruling planet being Jupiter, suggests that this will be a
time of opportunity for expansion and growth unless poorly aspected in the
natal chart by Saturn which makes this a little more challenging. Jupiter offers up opportunities for travel,
enlightenment in many levels and often good luck. The area of life is determined by the house
under its influence by this eclipse degree.
The lunar eclipses always have deeper influences. On a social
level regarding the masses, it shows the mindset due to information coming
through at that time. If any planets cross the degree especially by
conjunction, they will stir the energies connected to the
eclipse. Mars by conjunction or opposition and the Sun will
particularly add to these energies while Saturn will often end situations, if
Saturn is in play that is. Mars will often spur major happenings if
making contact. This speaks primarily of
the duration of this eclipse which lasts about one month.
Eclipses bring change. A Full Moon Lunar eclipse is a time to
purge and let go of things that no longer suit life’s
circumstances. It is a culmination point when we begin to take note
of what has been in place and move to the next level. We often reap
what we have sown. Careful consideration should be taken before we
plunge into action or on the contrary, consideration of the actions we need to
take as we may in the past been avoiding deciding and therefore no steps have
been taken. Do not forget we are speaking of the energies of Sagittarius
and the planet Jupiter.
Some individuals fear eclipses. In many cases, eclipses
foster change, but these changes are needed and should be considered essential.
Enjoy the energies at hand, and unless you have other mitigating factors
in your natal chart connected to this positioning, you may find it has little
impact on your life. Each individual chart will vary.
