Solar Eclipse - September 11, 2007
SOLAR ECLIPSE September 11, 2007
8:44am at 18 degrees 25' of Virgo
An eclipse occurs when the orbits of the Moon and the Earth align closely enough together with the Sun and the Moon to block the light of the Sun from the Earth (a Solar Eclipse), or the Moon (a Lunar Eclipse). Every month we have a New Moon, but only every six months do we have eclipses.
A Solar Eclipse is when the Moon is exactly between the Sun and the Earth and blocks the light of the Sun from the Earth. Solar Eclipses are very powerful New Moons and are known to herald significant endings and beginnings. The ancient rule is that the effects of a Solar Eclipse last as long in years as the eclipse lasts in hours. They represent special opportunities to break old patterns and to make major changes in our lives. Metamorphosis is the word associated with eclipse.
The Solar Eclipse on September 11, 2007 occurs at 8:44am at 18°25' degrees of Virgo.
All Virgo Sun Sign people will be most affected by this Solar Eclipse as will those with Virgo rising. If you are a Pisces or have Pisces rising you will feel this eclipse more strongly than most because in our sky the constellation of Pisces is opposite the constellation of Virgo and is in direct alignment with this powerful eclipse. You will find yourself redoing your life from your toes to the top of your head. Your appearance will be changed radically to reflect the massive changes going on within you!! Depending on the part of your chart that is activated we can determine exactly what part of your life will be most affected. Ultimately the changes in how you see yourself will affect how you are perceived by others thereby affecting all of your personal AND business relationships. Events that are triggered by this eclipse will take six months to unfold, so you can expect this process of change to continue as you begin to feel like a flower opening its’ petals. You will know that it is time to take bold but careful steps to refocus your life path and priorities. If you are a Virgo almost every part of your life will be affected, but all of us will feel a shift of some sort coming on. What is hidden will come to light and your secret desires may not be secret anymore. You may break away from a relationship that no longer suits your needs, or you may be faced with changes beyond your control. The six months ahead will give you the time to sort through your feelings and explore other options.
Remember: change is good! Change in thought, manner, speech, dress, lifestyle, career, health, family, expectations and goals are all part of the plan and the process of you creating a more fulfilled life. You may feel uncomfortable as you let go of what is familiar and you step way outside your boundaries to make room in your head and your heart for new ideas and ultimately a new lifestyle! Enjoy!!
How this Eclipse will affect each one of us:
Aries natives feel there are career changes brewing. This can be within your present company or with a new one. Health issues in general start to become more important as you take on a new exercise regime or discover a health issue that needs to be addressed.
Taurans
see this eclipse test a marriage, a love affair or a friendship. Children will be redefining their personalities and changing the way they dress. Flaws in your home will be revealed so you can make corrections as you are pushed into action. Be patient!
Geminis
need to develop stamina, endurance and courage as family relationships and communication of all sorts - including your equipment - is tested. Drama with family members brings you more responsibilities. Career freedom is also eclipsed at this time.
Cancers
are in the midst of dramatic family and neighborhood changes. Financial changes, though scarry, are good as events surrounding money lift a financial burden. Career opportunities will begin to seek you out; you don’t have to go after them. :-)
Leos
begin to redefine their personality and self-concept. Your look, your wardrobe and your image changes. If you haven’t been careful in dietary matters, you begin to cleanse your body. You change your diet and work-out routine as you consult health experts.
Virgos
see health being more of a priority than it has ever been. Since this eclipse is in your own sign keep a low profile, as your self-esteem is going to be ‘reality checked’. If it is unreasonably low, it will be raised as you gain insight into your position in life.
Libras
gain sudden powerful revelations as events show you some fallacy you’ve been holding on to. There are many possible scenarios here: job changes, your spouse’s health, dramas with friends. All of this leads to long-term change in your spiritual life.
Scorpios
don’t see much happening to them personally with this eclipse but do see their friends going through dramatic happenings. There can be a shake-up in the corporate hierarchy at work. This is a long-term trend having a longer than six-months impact.
Sagittarians
experience career changes as you are forced to accept new responsibilities. There are pay raises, too. Bosses, parents and parent figures seem very demanding. Try to go through this eclipse cycle in as spiritual state as possible. Don’t take any risks.
Capricorns
begin to explore the meaning of life as what you thought was once true is no longer valid. Psychological growth occurs as your dreams become vivid and your life experiences are more meaningful. Insurance or property matters take a dramtic turn.
Aquarians
see friendships tested as those around you (including spouses) experience events that affect their financial life. On a deeper level they are really testing their values and withdrawing to sort through what is really important to them. You can help by being there.
Pisceans
see foundations of a new social life being laid down now. Some of the changes can be difficult but in the end they are good. True and real friends, and true love relationships, will survive and flawed ones will be revealed and go out of your life. Be happy!!
