If you’re familiar with astrology at all, you’ve probably heard that Eclipse Season is chaotic. Eclipses can surprise us and shake up our routine. Eclipses try to get us to pay attention to areas we need to change in our lives and they change us whether we like it or not.
A Solar Eclipse occurs around two weeks before or after a Lunar Eclipse. Typically, there are two Eclipses in a row, but sometimes, there are more during the same Eclipse Season. Years with multiple Eclipses can be difficult!
Scientifically speaking, this is what an Eclipse is:
A Solar Eclipse is when the Moon stands between the Sun and Earth, blocking the Sun’s light. A Solar Eclipse always happens on a New Moon.
A Lunar Eclipse is when the Earth stands between the Sun and Moon. The Moon reflects light from the Sun. During a Lunar Eclipse, the Earth cuts off the light from the Sun. The Moon disappears. A Lunar Eclipse always happens on a Full Moon.
Astrologically speaking, there is a lot to learn about Eclipses.
What can happen during the Eclipse Season?
Oftentimes, Eclipses bring news of a huge life event. For example, the start of a business, a job promotion, business contract, or new business partner. It could be a time of graduations or new paths of study. It could bring a baby’s birth, a marriage, an engagement, break-up or divorce. It could bring the sale or purchase of a new home or rental contract. You could get a pet, or have the loss of one. Even events like a vacation or work travel, parties, meetings, or dates can become monumental. The things that happen around an Eclipse could be a major turning point in your life. Things may seem fated to happen, for better or worse.
You could also be given an important piece of information accidentally. For example, you could overhear something you weren’t meant to from a coworker or friend. You might accidentally see a text on your lover’s phone. No matter how you get the information, it will set off a domino effect that will force you to see things in a new light. It can be hard to believe that things are happening that you know nothing about or out of your control that could change the course of your life! Big or small, it will change things.
Sometimes, an important person will be removed from your life or your relationships could change. If your big change has to do with a person, Solar Eclipses tend to point toward masculine energy and Lunar Eclipses tend to point toward feminine energy.
Flaws in important systems in our life might be revealed, prompting us for a redo or a restart. Something ends in order for us to start new. We might be called on to give up something to move on to a new chapter in our lives. You may receive the offer of a lifetime. Eclipses may open a door that was shut. During this time it could feel like life is moving quickly.
Eclipse time can be emotional, especially Lunar Eclipses, since the Moon represents our emotions. Eclipses can bring on sudden news, and it might take weeks to really understand the meaning. They can show that you are much more capable than you assumed.
The news or event from the Eclipse might come within the week of the Eclipse, not directly during the day the Eclipse happens. Think back to what happened within the month. You may find that your Eclipse news came early.
If nothing happens to you, it could be something that affects a close friend or family member.
How can you prepare for Eclipses?
Pay attention to what sign the Eclipse falls in and what house.
Eclipses in the same element as your birth sign are typically friendly and helpful. The closer the Eclipse matches your Sun Sign, the better and more important.
But an Eclipse does not have to fall in your Sun Sign or Rising Sign to affect you. If you have a planet, or the Moon, at the same or in close degree to the Eclipse, pay attention to that planet, its placement in the chart, and the House that it rules.
Look for Patterns
It might be worth looking back at what happened the last time there was an Eclipse in the sign it falls in. Find themes that surrounded your life then to get a better understanding of what the Eclipse might mean for you.
Final advice for Eclipses
You should take news and signals, even gossip seriously during this time. Eclipse news can be delivered in a dramatic way, whether it’s obvious or subtle. Learn, investigate, and don’t ignore it. Sometimes you’re able to prepare yourself for difficult situations by paying attention to signs from the universe.
We cannot go back to the former situation after an Eclipse. This is the only way for us to make progress. Most of the time these changes happen instantly, but they can occur like a domino effect over the months with each Eclipse. Still, it’s often shocking news. Take any messages, whether they are big or small, that you get from an Eclipse as non-negotiable and firm. You must accept it and move on. The Eclipse wants you to have a new experience, so keep your eyes open!
If you suffer under an Eclipse, be patient and open-minded. If you don’t like where you end up, you can make changes, but they cannot be backtracking changes! Eclipses are there to illuminate something in your life. It is there to protect and help you. Always be grateful for the truth, even when it’s hard.
A great question to ask yourself during Eclipse Season is:
How am I welcoming change today?
