Aries

(11th House) There could be a few twists and turns with the Solar Eclipse on Tuesday the 17th. Don’t be surprised if you have to change plans, rearrange your schedule, or recalibrate in other ways. The weather this week is very changeable, and things could move quickly and unexpectedly. Eclipses occur when the Sun, Moon and the Earth are in such perfect alignment that the Moon casts a shadow on the Sun, temporarily blocking its life-giving force. And like a reboot, when the eclipse is over, the Sun is restored in all its glory. In can also facilitate bringing our hearts and minds into a more perfect alignment with our hopes and wishes for the future. And this will be especially so for the next 18 months that a majority of the eclipses will be falling in the signs of Aquarius and Leo. This is the first in this series of eclipses in these signs. As a result you could find yourself suddenly inspired; your life even transformed as a result of either a wish being fulfilled; connecting with others who share the same vision for the future that you have; or feeling like you a making some important connection with a particular group or network of friends. The impact that these eclipses can have could even change the very direction of your life by readjusting your hopes and wishes for the future. Making connections with others will become increasingly important, as you come to realize that so much more can be accomplished when you join forces with those who share the same aspirations, than you possibly could do on your own.

And the eclipses can be just the tipping point that is needed in order to get you there. It is not unusual in the years that the eclipses are in Leo and Aquarius, as they will be for the next 18 months, that there can be significant shifts and changes in your goals for the future. This is the first of this series of eclipses. And because the North Node of the Moon is still in Pisces, this feels more like a transition from one order to another.

(9th House) Mercury has now entered its shadow for the upcoming retrograde phase at the end of February. But as it does so it aims to point your attention within, to the very heart of the matter. In order to do this well you will eventually need to turn down the noise and the distractions in your life. Which you will be hard pressed to do as we enter eclipse season. The Solar Eclipse on Tuesday is attempting to open you up to the idea of having greater confidence in your innermost impressions and perceptions. There is that part of you that just knows, and senses without even knowing why. One thing that can become apparent is that there is so much more to the mind than we actually really know. And when you can tap into even a bit of that, it can be downright illuminating, inspiring and fascinating. This Eclipse can even act as a portal, bringing in all of this information, and as you take in any and all of this outside data, you are also being asked to trust not only what you are seeing and hearing, but perhaps more importantly, what you are sensing. Doing this good work could even open a door to an even higher awareness and understanding. The truth is, you’ve been working on perfecting your inner vision for years. Now you are being asked to put aside some of your skepticism and put it into practice.

Cancer

(8th House)  The Solar Eclipse this week is pointing you towards the natural cycles of life, including, birth, death, rebirth and the ebb and flow of the cycle of reciprocity, of giving and receiving. When a pond receives enough fresh water, it is better able to thrive and grow. But if there isn’t a continuous flow of fresh clean water coming in, the pond can become stagnant, and dry up. The creatures that live within it will no longer flourish, and the pond will fail to thrive. Too much water and not enough drainage and the pond will become flooded and overflow its banks. So it is in our lives when this cycle becomes imbalanced. Either you find yourself drained and under-appreciated, or over-compensating by taking on too much and feeling overwhelmed, to your own detriment. Where might you need to make some adjustments in order to restore the natural balance in your life between what you are giving, and what you are receiving? Between thriving and diminishing? Over all you might see the ways that you relate to concepts of ownership, shared resources, agreements with others, as they affect the delicate balance of the cycle of reciprocity. Not unusual to experience some sort of large sale or purchase, such as the purchase of sale of property or a house. Over the next 18 months you may also consider what needs to end in order to step into the life that is waiting for you. You can expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Life, Death, Rebirth, Renewal, Receiving, Marketing, Shared resources, Mortgages, Debts, Loans, Taxes, Investments, Inheritances, Wills, Sexuality, Surgery, Rehabilitation, Old Contracts, Habits, Addictions and Attachments.

This could be sudden, unexpected and surprising at times. But it would be hard to avoid the sorts of changes that can occur when the eclipses fall in Leo and Aquarius. Like you didn’t even see this coming. Shocking even. Like strategic and mystical matchmakers, the fates collude to bring certain individuals together while separating others. Those that are brought into your life will have a significant bearing on your destiny and the choices you will be making. As a result it would not be unusual when the eclipses are in these signs as they now will be for the next 18 months, that significant connections can be made. Great beginnings as well as Great endings can occur in your major relationships when the eclipses are in these signs. However with the North Node in Aquarius, something may need to end in order to embrace the new beginning that is waiting for you.

Capricorn

(2nd House) This year the eclipses are shifting to the signs of Leo and Aquarius. The Solar Eclipse at the end of Aquarius on February 17th is the 1st of this series of eclipses as we make the transition on to the Leo/Aquarius axis. For you this places an emphasis on that which belongs to you, vs. that which belongs to others. That which you value, vs. what others value. There is also something here about the idea of being open to receiving, and the ways that you do or do not feel that you deserve to receive. What needs to be released in order for you to feel as if you are worthy to receive? Shame? Guilt? Fear? Feelings of inadequacy? That there will never be enough? What needs to be enforced? Self-confidence? self-worth? How well you value what you have to offer to others? As a result this series of Eclipses in Aquarius and Leo over the next few years could impact your income and sense of self-worth. It could even change the way you feel about money, possessions, spending and ownership in general. But not without addressing any issues surrounding deserving and receiving. You can expect matters to come to the forefront with the Solar Eclipse concerning: Balancing your needs with the needs of others; valuing what you have to offer to others; how well you feel valued by others, what is or is not sustainable, and getting in touch with your most important Priorities.

Solar Eclipses are about New Beginnings. And when accompanied by the North Node, as this one is, it can even be a shift in a whole new direction. It is not unusual for people to feel Eclipsed, or drained in these Eclipse seasons, which may compel you to have to make some significant changes in your life. Changes that can have such an impact, that your life will never feel quite the same again. Some sort of evolutionary portal is being opened up, and beckoning you to walk through. If there are certain changes that you’ve been wanting to make, these eclipses are capable of opening up avenues of escape that allow you to do so.
