Watch out! that Bloody bloody full Moon, the Lunar Eclipse will happen on 7th August 2017 at 18:10 (GMT), when the Moon at 15º25’ Aquarius opposite Sun at 15º25’ Leo. The high tension we are experiencing now and several important incidents happening in European countries makes me give this kind of warning for this Eclipse season. The astrological configuration of both the Solar and Lunar Eclipses are also suggesting aggressive and revolutionary qualities coming toward to us.
On the personal level, the Lunar Eclipse shows us the result of our work, it gives us a chance to see effort that we have put in before, or maybe you will realise and scream “what have I done!“
It also has an important impact in our relationship, the houses location of this Lunar Eclipse (Sun and Moon) in your chart can indicate what area you should pay attention to, in your relationship, for next 6 months. More important, if you have any planets or Angles located at 14-16º Leo-Aquarius, you may realise the huge impact that is going to affect your life. Understanding the meaning of the planet that is touched by the Eclipse in your chart can help you prepare and get ready to participate with this life changing point.
Fire! Fire!
The signs of this Lunar Eclipse can tell us some qualities of the events we will witness in the next six months. The elements of Eclipses are Air and Fire. Air signs suggest human society related events, political disputes, protests, important social movements. They also suggest natural disasters caused by powerful winds such as storms. Moon in Aquarius emphasises that revolution and social movement could be media focus of this eclipse season.
On another side, the Fire signs suggest aggressive actions such warfare and massacre, as well as bush fire, big fire, explosion, heat wave, drought and famine. Sun in Leo suggests: Royal family, country leaders, celebrities, children, entertainment and wildlife are the areas which will be affected most, especially as the Solar Eclipse will also happen in Leo.
While I am writing this article there are already few terrot attct, Mancherster attact, London bridge attact and London tower fire cause 12 death .
Mars conjunct the Sun
Jupiter trine the Moon
The planets aspect the Sun and Moon could add flavour to those events. Mars is conjunct the Sun at Lunar Eclipse. Traditional astrology gives both Sun and Mars hot and dry qualities. With both located in the Fire sign Leo and Mars as a planet of action and warfare, this is a double whammy of extreme hot weather and huge aggressive incidents. Those countries which have planets and angles near 6-20º’ Aquarius-Leo and those which have the Sun, Moon or Mars on the Angles of the Lunar Eclipse chart are more likely to be affected. (for example Mexico, Nigeria, Algeria Tunisia, Italy, Croatia,Poland and most East European country).
On another side, Jupiter is trine the Moon and sextile the Sun, bringing a happy feeling and blessing. During certain situations, wisdom and religion ( or anything you believe) can be helpful.
Important aspects during eclipse season
Saturn Chiron square
Saturn Chiron square are major outer planets aspect of 2017. Even if it doesn’t form a tight aspect during the eclipse season, I invite you to pay more attention to this aspect. It suggests the wounds come from the system, authorities, from political issues to private lives. The domestic issue could be conflict between parents and children, or realising those issues buried deep in the family history. On the Mundane level this could mean social injustice and those victims who have been sacrificed for political or economical reasons, people who have been ignored by society. For example, the change of healthcare in the U.S is going to make millions of people lose their medical insurance. However Chiron does not only bring feelings of hurt, it can also heal, protect from authority, create (or extend) protection towards minority groups through legislation. This is the positive side of the Saturn Chiron aspect but as this is a waning square which has inclined towards making people feel pain and fight to destroy injustice.
Jupiter sextile Saturn
Although this sextile looks happy, never forget this is the end of the Jupiter Saturn cycle. After the Jupiter Saturn square last year, they have come to sextile before stepping into a semi square. Keep an eye on economic and political situations during August and September, it will give you a clue as to how the global economy will develop and how our society will change.
Jupiter square Pluto
Watch out for this aspect, the financial markets usually decline when Jupiter forms a hard aspect with Pluto. It suggests the tension of international dispute, religious conflict, threats to social security systems, corruption and panic in financial markets. As Jupiter exact square Pluto in the end of November and early December last year and March-April 2017, it is worth reviewing what has happened during those times, the sequel of those events might be appearing this summer.
Mercury opposite Neptune
Mercury opposite Neptune suggests the challenge of truth, what is real and what is fantasy? Chaotic situations could appear in transport, information, communication and education. IT problems not only happen during Mercury retrograde, and Mercury will be retrograde from 10th August to 6th September and also opposite Neptune on the Solar Eclipse day. This means the influence of this aspect could last very long time even when they are no longer opposite. So back up your data and keep it safe and double check your itineraries when you travel.
Solar Eclipse of 21 August
Second solar Eclipse will happen right before the Sun moves into Virgo at 28 º 52’ Leo on 21st August (18:30 GMT). As this eclipse occurs in the fire sign Leo, the shocking events are related to warfare, massacre, bush fire, big fire, explosion,heat wave, drought and famine as we discussed before.
Those aspects we discussed in Lunar Eclipse are also appearing in the Solar Eclipse. Moreover, this New Moon trine Uranus could make suddenly cause the situation to be out of control. Uranus is related to Nuclear power and nuclear weapons, it would not be a surprise if there was an incident related to these. In another way, the New Moon trine Uranus also encourages people to make changes, from personal life to the political situation and economic system. As Venus square Jupiter, Uranus and Mars sextile Jupiter trine Saturn also happens on the Solar Eclipse day, it suggests that if we can deeply understand the core values of different social classes and of differences of political campaigns, we may be able to work together.
One last and most crucial thing is Mars, it conjunct North Node, widely conjunct the Sun in the Solar Eclipse chart. Any planet conjunct Moon Nodes will impose its quality in our society, people will act more bravely or more aggressively, fighting for their own rights, but this also suggest that the tension and conflicts could be very high.
Saros cycles
This Solar Eclipse is related to Saros cycle S.S 1 North, same Saros cycles were happened in 1999, 1981, 1963, 1945 and 1927, anything happening during those times (in both Mundane level or Personal level ) could have some developments after this summer.
Trump and Solar Eclipse
If a Personal Chart has any planet connecting touching by the Eclipse point this suggests a huge change in life for that year, therefore if you have any personal planet or your ascendant, descendent M.C I.C is on 14-16º Leo-Aquarius, or 27 Leo to 0 Virgo, you are coming to a turning point of your life. People usually ask about what is going to change. First we look at the meaning of that planet and think about what you want to change in that area of life. Even though we can not control everything in our life but if we can use this powerful eclipse energy to work, it can be very effective. U.S President Trump has his Ascendent on 29 degree Leo, also close to Mars in his chart, the Solar Eclipse is right on it and nevertheless he was born on the Lunar Eclipse day, this means the Eclipse has a very powerful influence on him. Ascendent is about his presence, outlook and relationship with this world. When the Eclipse happens on Angles usually suggesting a huge change of personal life, this could be very difficult for him.
