OCTOBER SOLAR ECLIPSE

October Solar Eclipse

On October 2, 2024, we will be experiencing a Solar Eclipse in the sign of Libra at 10°. 

If you have natal planets either conjunct, opposition or square to this position, primarily the Conjunction and Opposition, you will be affected by these energies, and possibly in a powerful manner depending on other transits in place at the time when this eclipse is in effect.  You can allow a 3° orb of influence, so planets between 7° and 13° of this placement in the appropriate signs will be influenced.  All major aspects will have some effect on this placement. 

A few months leading up to this timing will begin to show what has potential to manifest.  This influence can be strong for about one year, but last as long in years as the eclipse lasts in hours.  According to www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2024-october-2 the first location to see the partial eclipse begins at approximately 11:43 a.m EDT and the last place to see the partial eclipse ends at approximately 5:47 EDT.

Since this eclipse is in the sign of Libra (you always must take into consideration the sign and the house placement of any eclipse), the main influence will have to do with relationships.  This may include your spouse or significant other, close friends or business associates.  It involves fairness, justice, balancing, harmonious yearnings and perhaps making things right. 

It often encompasses new beginnings or endings and opportunities for significant change.  There is often an important shift where we must let go of what was or the past and move ahead possibly in a new direction.  Important life events are often tied to when Eclipses’ energies take hold, and again the house position will define what area of life may be involved.  Transformation and change are key characteristics of eclipses.  Sometimes it can bring unexpected change when we least anticipate it, but this change is often just what is needed in the long haul.

Transiting Mercury is closely tied to the conjunction of the Sun and Moon during this eclipse, and this suggests that the mind is closely tied to what takes place.  You may have been thinking about things for some time and now is the time for action or when action takes place.  Sometimes destiny seems to prevail and much of what takes place is beyond our control.  Things change because they need to.  Intensions play a big part in what unfolds, and goals also come into play.

Along with Transiting Mercury, we also have a Grand Water Trine with Venus (love and affection), Mars (sexual energy and drive) and Saturn (a steadying effect which can solidify things and bring stability).  The Grand Water Trine suggests emotional connections have the potential of working well and moving along nicely.  You are self-sufficient at handling any events that may unfold, and you do not depend on others to do the work necessary or to move you in the intended direction.  The emotions may be kept under wraps at this time as you know you can handle anything that may surface, and things flow without obstruction.

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.

SUN, MERCURY AND VENUS ARE MOVING INTO CANCER

Sun, Mercury & Venus Move into Cancer

The Sun, Mercury and Venus are moving into Cancer soon.

Just prior to the Sun, Mercury and Venus moving into Cancer, they will be making a square to Transiting Neptune which is at 29° in the sign of Pisces.  The Sun, Mercury and Venus will be at 29° Gemini just past mid-June, 2024.  For a few days this energy will be in flux, and although vague and uncertain due to the energies of Neptune, things will begin to clear and make a trine to Neptune as time passes.  By the beginning of July, 2024, Mercury will make a Trine to Neptune as will Venus (around July 11) and then the Sun will make a Trine too around July 21/22.

The difference between the Square and the Trine energies will be quite noticeable.  The Square in this case makes things uncertain and ambiguous when it comes to understanding what way to go and what is real or not real with love and affection. 

The Trine on the other hand opens the door to much clearer perception and understanding of these matters.  So, it will be important to wait until the air clears for those that are being impacted by these two very different energies entering their lives.

Check your chart to see if you have any planets that make direct contact with this degree.  You can use up to a 5° orb of influence and the strongest connection will be the Conjunction, followed by the Square and then the Opposition aspects.

Mercury always speaks of the mind and communication and deals with everyday activities.  Venus can speak of love and affection, social interaction, finances and when connected to Mercury speaks in volumes of our connectedness when it comes to open conversation, especially about our inner most communications and interchanges.  Neptune can make this time magical and inspirational, and for those so inclined, can line up with intuitive insight and imagination.  Waiting out this period before acting is advised, as mentioned. You will notice that things become much clearer as time passes.  You will then have a better idea of what route you should be taking.

When these planets and the Sun move into Cancer, you can expect a period of emotional interaction especially with those that matter in your life.  This can include family but also extend out further to the family of friends.  Caring and nurturing will likely be part of this process.  Healing where necessary and an understanding of how compassion influences can bring about desired results.

Our inner core, our minds and our relationships or finances will likely be affected by the square and the trine to Neptune if they make contact in our chart. Neptune tends to make things vague but this will pass.

GEMINI NEW MOON

Gemini New Moon

The New Moon on June 6, 2024, will be in the sign of Gemini at 16°.  This New Moon falls in the second decant suggesting that not only is there the influence of Gemini but it also has something to do with Libra (may have something to do with relationships).  The placement of the New Moon in your natal chart will help clarify this. 

A new Moon’s energies speak of new beginnings, the start of something and action taking to promote the best possible outcome as it matures.  Those that put forth the required effort into this energy will reap the rewards as time passes and reach the pinnacle in approximately six months when we experience the Full Moon in Gemini.

With the Gemini influence, this suggests that there will be at least two paths that can be pursued.  Gemini often speaks of duality and different avenues to follow.  If this is a relationship, perhaps there are two suitors or two different options available.  There may be some struggles in making up your mind as to which path to take because transiting Saturn in Pisces is square to this position of the New Moon. 

Perhaps there are two people that are of interest especially so because of the conjunction of Venus, which often speaks of a young female.  Venus can also speak of finances and perhaps finances are involved as well.  Venus is about socializing and often is tied in with love and affection. In square to Saturn suggests that this might feel like a testing period where things do not move along as planned and feel as though they are moving far too slow.  Advancement may be hindered in some way.

The Gemini New Moon can make you subject to variable circumstances.  You will likely find that you can adapt to situations somewhat easier than normal depending on what the rest of the natal chart is indicating.  Those that do not willingly bend with life situations may find that they can adapt more easily under this Gemini and that although not customary may now be able to change with the flow of life.  Those that are adaptable and changeable may find this time even more so and may also have a difficult time settling into the situation although they are usually adaptable. 

With a Gemini new Moon with Libra overtones, you may set new goals for a relationship. Saturn will have its influence and what you might want is stability but this may be subject to change and adapting is what needs to take place.
