I dedicate this post, as well as the next one, to the way in which we are expected to incorporate the energies of the eclipses on the basis of our zodiac sign. Following the tradition of my blog related to starting from Pisces and moving clockwise in the zodiac, this post will cover Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Libra, whereas the next one will cover Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus and Aries. I remind you that the effects of the eclipses are most strongly felt a month before and after the actual dates of the eclipses, that is, November 25th for the solar eclipse, and December 10th for the lunar eclipse.
If, as I suspect, you’re only interested to read about your personal zodiac sign (or the sign of your loves ones), please scroll down until you find it. Each paragraph is devoted to a different sign, Pisces coming first, Aquarius second, Capricorn third, and so on. If you’re not quite sure under which zodiac sign you were born, you will notice the start and end dates of each sign being depicted in brackets next to the name of the corresponding sign. Please also note the following two things: a) If you’re born on the cusp between two adjacent zodiac signs (e.g., April 20th, which would be the end of Aries and the beginning of Taurus), you might find it useful to read both signs and b) you might find it equally useful to read the sign of your Ascendant as well. For example, someone who was born on May 21st and has Scorpio ascending (like me!) would get more out of reading the signs of Taurus, Gemini and Scorpio.
Pisces (February 19 – March 19)
The eclipses will stimulate your 4th-10th natural house axis, the axis of private and public life. More specifically, the solar eclipse on November 25th will take place in your tenth natural house, which has to do with parents (usually the mother), job, career, public life and image, and relationships with bosses, employers and authority figures. Therefore, the solar eclipse will bring important endings and new beginnings, as well as important communications and new ways of expanding your horizons, in relation to any of the issues or people mentioned above. For instance, you may be motivated to hold important communications with family members, and the mother in particular. It may also be that family members or the mother are the ones who need to communicate something of importance to you. A further possibility is that you hear something critical regarding your job, while it may also be that you set new goals related to your career, public image and reputation. Your job or career may require an important long-distance journey, while holding important negotiations for professional reasons is a further possibility. On a more psychological level, it appears that you will focus on finding new ways of feeling regarded as important.
However, with the lunar eclipse on December 10th taking place in your fourth natural house, which has to do with parents (usually the father), family, private life and the past, you will be reminded that you need to strike a balance between home and career; private and public life; inner security and reputation; parents and employers. For instance, you may experience heightened emotions and stress levels regarding your home or family. Perhaps, important communications with family members or some short-distance travel for family reasons will stress you out, challenging relationships with your family and father in particular. You may suddenly realise that you want or lack inner peace and security in your home and family life, which may urge you to withdraw from the world, often at the expense of job-related affairs. It may even be that one of your parents is responsible for some emotional drama, while past issues related to your family or career are coming to light and forcing you to make a choice. On a more psychological level, you may find inner peace and security in sharing your emotions. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury in retrograde and Mars in harsh aspect to the Sun and Moon will probably bring delays, setbacks, heat and anger in relation to any of the matters mentioned above.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
The eclipses will stimulate your 5th-11th natural house axis, the axis of personal recognition and social life. More specifically, the solar eclipse on November 25th will take place in your eleventh natural house, which has to do with friends and social life, groups and organisations, community involvement and volunteerism. Therefore, the solar eclipse will bring important endings and new beginnings, as well as important communications and new ways of expanding your horizons, in relation to any of the issues or people mentioned above. For instance, you may be motivated to hold important communications with or about friends and fellow members of a group you are part of. It may also be that it is them the ones who need to communicate something of importance to you, while setting new goals related to your social life is a strong possibility. Further possibilities include friends asking you to make an important long-distance journey with them or important negotiations taking place regarding a potential promotion of yours by recommendation of others. On a more psychological level, it appears that you will consider important to find new ways of achieving a sense of belongingness.
However, with the lunar eclipse on December 10th taking place in your fifth natural house, which has to do with children, love affairs, sports, risk-taking, gambling and any creative or other joyful pursuit, you will be reminded that you need to strike a balance between individual recognition and social life; personal good and common good; self and society. For instance, you may experience heightened emotions and stress levels regarding your children, love partners or gambling and risk-taking activities. Perhaps, important communications with or about children and love partners or some short-distance leisure travel with them will stress you out, challenging your relationships with them. A further possibility is that you suddenly realise that you want or lack children or a romantic affair, which may urge you to spend more time with children and love partners, often at the expense of your friends and social life. It may even be that a child, love partner or friend is responsible for some emotional drama. On a more psychological level, you may want to be personally recognised for sharing your emotions. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury in retrograde and Mars in harsh aspect to the Sun and Moon will probably bring delays, setbacks, heat and anger in relation to any of the matters mentioned above.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
The eclipses will stimulate your 6th-12th natural house axis, the axis of daily routine and escape. More specifically, the solar eclipse on November 25th will take place in your twelfth natural house, which has to do with compassion, behind the scenes activity, hospitals, retreats, as well as with taking days off, resting and escaping daily routines. Therefore, the solar eclipse will bring important endings and new beginnings, as well as important communications and new ways of expanding your horizons, in relation to any of the issues mentioned above. For instance, you may be motivated to hold important communications with people who work in hospitals, retreats or charity organizations. It may also be that it is them who need to communicate something of importance to you. Perhaps, important negotiations and procedures are taking place behind the scenes, which may affect you only indirectly. A further possibility is that you set new goals related to your need to relax and to escape daily life, thus deciding to take a much-needed holiday, quite possibly abroad. On a more psychological level, you may consider it important to relinquish control by placing your faith in the universe and trusting that whatever happens contributes to your spiritual awareness and progress.
However, with the lunar eclipse on December 10th taking place in your sixth natural house, which has to do with work, health, duties, daily routines, colleagues, employers and practical caretakers, you will be reminded that you need to strike a balance between reality and dreams; routines and escape; duty and compassion; control and trust. For instance, you may experience heightened emotions and stress levels regarding your work, health or daily routines. You may suddenly realise that your health is faltering or that your work and daily routines are disrupted, which may urge you to take care of your body and diet or to put some order in your daily life, at the expense of course of your possibility to rest and take days off. Perhaps, past issues related to your colleagues, employers and your need to take time off are coming to light, forcing you to make a choice. On a more psychological level, you may experience a deep urge to achieve body-mind connection. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury in retrograde and Mars in harsh aspect to the Sun and Moon will probably bring delays, setbacks, heat and anger in relation to any of the matters mentioned above.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
The eclipses will stimulate your 1st-7th natural house axis, the axis of autonomy and compromise. More specifically, the solar eclipse on November 25th will take place in your first natural house, which has to do with one’s self, body, vitality, health, self-image, outer appearance, self-development, autonomy, independence and personal desires and needs. Therefore, the solar eclipse will bring important endings and new beginnings, as well as important communications and new ways to expand your horizons, in relation to any of the issues mentioned above. For instance, you may be motivated to hold important communications about your body, health, outer appearance and self-development, while you may also set new goals regarding these issues. You may find that exploring yourself and satisfying your personal needs and desires become highly motivating issues for you. A major change of personal direction or a new look is a strong possibility. A further possibility is that you make an important long-distance journey on your own or that you decide to become more independent by expanding your horizons, perhaps by moving to a different city or even abroad. On a more psychological level, it appears that you will consider important to find new ways of achieving autonomy in your life.
However, with the lunar eclipse on December 10th taking place in your seventh natural house, which has to do with one-to-one relationships, husbands and wives, partnerships, marriage, litigations, divorce, open enemies, clients and the public, you will be reminded that you need to strike a balance between autonomy and compromise; self-assertion and cooperation; personal desire and acceptance of other people’s needs. For instance, you may experience heightened emotions and stress levels regarding love partners, spouses, business partners or clients, as well as lawyers and judges. Perhaps, important negotiations or some short-distance travel that tests your capacity to compromise will stress you out, challenging relationships with significant others in your life. You may suddenly realise that you want or lack a romantic or business partner, which may urge you to find one and satisfy their needs and desires, often at the expense of your own. It may even be that you or a significant other in your life is responsible for some emotional drama. On a more psychological level, you may consider that sharing your emotions helps to strengthen or to sever relationships. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury in retrograde and Mars in harsh aspect to the Sun and Moon will probably bring delays, setbacks, heat and anger in relation to any of the matters mentioned above.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
The eclipses will stimulate your 2nd-8th natural house axis, the axis of material and emotional security. More specifically, the solar eclipse on November 25th will take place in your second natural house, which is related to material security, personal resources and sense of personal worth. Therefore, the solar eclipse will bring important endings and new beginnings, as well as important communications and new ways of expanding your horizons, in relation to any of the issues mentioned above. For instance, you may be motivated to hold important communications regarding your personal income, possessions and belongings, while you may hear something critical concerning your salary and personal income. It may also be that you set new goals with regard to your personal resources and possessions, such as opening a new bank account or starting to save money. A further possibility is that you find new ways of making money or spending it, perhaps on important long-distance journeys. It may thus be a time where your personal resources and material security take a wholly new direction in life. On a more psychological level, it appears that you will consider important to find new ways of valuing yourself and your body, thus increasing your self-esteem and sense of personal worth.
However, with the lunar eclipse on December 10th taking place in your eighth natural house, which is related to intimate relationships, shared resources and joint finances or money belonging to others, such as taxes, loans, debts, inheritances, joint bank accounts and insurance policies, you will be reminded that you need to strike a balance between material security and emotional security; depending on your own resources and those of others; valuing yourself as well as significant others. For instance, you may experience heightened emotions and stress levels regarding intimate partners, bankers, tax officers, stock brokers or insurance people. Perhaps, some short-distance travel or important negotiations concerning joint finances and possessions will stress you out, challenging relationships with people with whom you share resources in life. You may suddenly realise that you want or lack an intimate partner, while it may also be that you or an intimate partner is responsible for some emotional drama. On a more psychological level, you may start to share your emotions as a way of looking deep within yourself, as well as of valuing significant others in your life. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury in retrograde and Mars in harsh aspect to the Sun and Moon will probably bring delays, setbacks, heat and anger in relation to any of the matters mentioned above.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
The eclipses will stimulate your 3rd-9th natural house axis, the axis of mental exploration. More specifically, the solar eclipse on November 25th will take place in your third natural house, which has to do with learning, schooling, communicating and relating with neighbours and close relatives, such as siblings, cousins, uncles and nephews. Therefore, the solar eclipse will bring important endings and new beginnings, as well as important communications and new ways of expanding your horizons, in relation to any of the issues or people mentioned above. For instance, you may be motivated to hold important communications with neighbours, teachers, schoolmates or close relatives. It may also be that these people are the ones who need to communicate something of importance to you. A further possibility is that you hear something critical concerning some course you currently attend, while it may also be that you set new goals related to commercial and learning activities or means of communication and transportation. For instance, learning something new and buying a new computer, phone or even a car are all strong possibilities. On a more psychological level, it appears that you will consider important to find new ways of using and applying your mind and mental skills.
However, with the lunar eclipse on December 10th taking place in your ninth natural house, which has to do with higher learning and education, universities and professors, foreign people and countries, long journeys and in-laws, you will be reminded that you need to strike a balance between learning and sharing knowledge; exploring your immediate environment and venturing beyond; thinking rationally and believing. For instance, you may experience heightened emotions and stress levels regarding in-laws, foreigners, lawyers, professors and students. Perhaps, some short-distance travel or important negotiations you need to undertake regarding a university course will stress you out, challenging relationships with professors, students and foreigners. You may suddenly realise that you want or lack ways to share your knowledge or to travel long distances, which may urge you to teach, disseminate your ideas or make a journey, perhaps abroad. It may even be that a professor, student or in-law is responsible for some emotional drama. On a more psychological level, you may look for wisdom and meaning in sharing your emotions. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury in retrograde and Mars in harsh aspect to the Sun and Moon will probably bring delays, setbacks, heat and anger in relation to any of the matters mentioned above.
