So with Neptune conjoined the Moon conjoined Chiron and the North Node of our collective destiny, this eclipse promises endings, healings and new breakthroughs in our personal and collective destiny. While we watch the Olympics, perhaps more of us will recognize the truth that we are all one and in this experiment called life together. It's time to balance the masculine mode of perception that insists on the “Survival of the fittest” with the feminine mode of perception that knows we can survive better if we help one another.
(a side note: Neptune relates to collapse and public scandal. We are at a critical turning point in the currency and banking markets and as Neptune rules oil and gas, the further collapse of banks or currencies will undoubtedly be related to the soaring costs of these fuels and to financial scandals. Don't let a few cents difference at the gas pumps fool you. The old companies are making bigger profits every quarter.)
This eclipse occurs at 25 Aquarius, in conjunction with the three fixed stars at 25 Leo, conjunct another.
1. Sadalsuud associated with: great fortune; astrology, psychic, visionary, originality; personal charm; temperance; aviation. It has the flavor of Saturn/ Mercury.
2. Deneb Algedi associated with: A wise leader; finding the joy inherent in sorrow – and vice versa; glory and fame if death is avoided; betrayal, loss of position if associated with Sun or Moon. It has the flavor of Saturn/ Jupiter.
3. Sador associated with: Glittering wings, figured by stars. Part of the Christian Cross. Words of command, gathering of wealth; a hidden god; love of water, swimming, the arts; communication with birds; aviation. It also has the flavor of Jupiter/Saturn.
The Sun in this eclipse is conjunct the fixed star Subra in Leo. Subra is full of swaggering strength, and is fond of battle and plunder. But it is not noted for guile. Perhaps we're redeeming the Viking warrior archetype.
So with these images in mind, let us hope that the eclipse will end the egotistical Leo power plays (by nations as well as individuals) and engage in a deeper understanding of the issues facing the whole world. And I would love to see our Artists step forward with vision and voice to lead the way. That's a better use of Leo's energy.
Anyone with prominent fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) in your chart will have some intense reactions to these eclipses. Separate out your ego desires from your soul's commitments. You want to deepen your emotional ties to your talents and gifts. Play, practice, write, create. Bless what you have and bless what you want to come to you.
