ECLIPSE!
“To the moon and back, Alice.”
—Honeymooners
On March 14, all of North America will experience a full lunar eclipse. Then on March 29, a partial solar eclipse will complete a month of spectacular astronomical events. Perhaps best of all, astrologically speaking, this is a month of far more blessings than challenges and if you are spiritually inclined, even more blessings. We want to take advantage of the high, positive energy factor. The energy of an eclipse occurs for a week or two before and after the actual eclipse, therefore this entire month should be highly energized for whatever you choose to focus on in positive ways. Whatever you do around an eclipse can take on greater importance.
At the time of the lunar eclipse, the Sun is in Pisces while Earth and Moon are in Virgo. The Pisces–Virgo opposition is a very powerful one regarding the Christ Consciousness. This is the axis of the Mother and Son, Virgo being the archetype of the Virgin Mary while Pisces rules the idea of Christ Consciousness. This applies to all of us, not just church-going Christians, since the message of the Christ was love of thy neighbor and the peace of God, ideas we all hope to carry forward into the Age of Aquarius. Focus on these ideas leading up to and during this eclipse. Then for the partial solar eclipse, the Sun and Moon will be in Aries while the Earth is in Libra. Now the focus—still carrying forward the thoughts of the lunar eclipse—can become, “Who am I?” and, “Who am I in relationship?” and at this time in the evolution of humanity, “Who am I in relationship with everyone? With humanity? With my home planet?”
Everyone: Saturn is catching up to Neptune for the first time in 35 or 36 years; the pair will be within 10 x 50 binocular view from March 21 onwards.
