For the Lunar Eclipse at 12º Virgo 51’ for your sign, also check out the house placement in your natal chart if you know it:
Aries
(6th House) We may think that if we fix everything in our lives, or everyone else, that if we keep ourselves busy, then this will allow us to have time for peace later on. But actually with Mercury now retrograde in Pisces, and the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, what you will come to understand, is the value of taking some time out of your busy life in order to slow down and go within. This won’t be easy, for we are coming into the week like gangbusters, jumping through hoops, with an overabundance of energy. Even if it’s only a matter of minutes out of your day, know that by connecting with yourself, and the things that bring greater meaning to you, you might find peace. And by finding peace everything else will then fall into place. And this is true even on the busiest of days, and the most unpredictable and cluttered of weeks. All that constant going, going will eventually become unsustainable. By contrast, retrograde Mercury and the North Node in Pisces are asking you to stop. Stop so that you can remind yourself of those things that feed your Soul. What is it that you have been ignoring for the sake of your to-do list? You may think that if you throw yourself on the altar of service and self-abnegation, that if you fix everyone and everything else, then your life will be in order. But it’s actually the other way around. When you take care of your own inner well-being, the rest will fall into place. Therefore ask yourself what might you need to release, let go of, or tweak concerning: Your work, your daily schedule, your job, overworking, your own health needs, those things you need to do to support your health and well-being, your diet, your routines, and not making enough time for yourself and your own mental health and well-being.
Taurus
(5th House) Lunar Eclipses, such as the one we are having on March 3rd, can be illuminating. Perhaps strikingly so! Surprises, twists and turns can sneak up on us in eclipse seasons. Like a super Full Moon, Lunar Eclipses are like a culmination, bringing things to a head, or to a final conclusion. They can even be tinged with sadness as we recall those that we had lost and loved so well. But it can also be about allowing yourself to let go of what once was or could have been, in order to see the possibilities that are getting ready to blossom. This Lunar Eclipse can be about something ending, and letting go. But it can also be about potential, and the ability to rise out of the ashes of what once was. And know that what you create from these ashes will be that much more beautiful and meaningful, because of how they are invested with all the tears and the reminiscences of your once cherished dreams and love stories. Connect with your joy. All the things that make your heart sing. Then take all those stories, and the wisdom gained from previous achievements and allow these to invest your hopes for a better future filled with new joys and new hopes for the future. Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Children; someone or some thing that you love; what it means to Love and be Loved; Romance; what you are needing to release in order to more freely express yourself; and Learning to embrace what is Special and Unique about yourself.
Gemini
(4th House) It would not be unusual along with the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo this week to find some sort of shift taking place in your personal life closer to home. Changes in the family? A family crisis? Thinking of moving? Could be that someone close to you, someone that you assumed would always be there, decides to move off in a different direction and is no longer available. You may have been rethinking where you are living and who you are living with. With South Node Eclipses such as this one is, there can even be some sadness, especially if there are any separations taking place, or a parting from what you were previously accustomed to. Whether that means leaving that great apartment, or saying goodbye to the family home, Eclipses are like turning points where endings and beginnings seem to meld into one another, leaving us wondering how this all happened. Know also that we can’t necessarily see the bigger picture. It can also happen that changes happening now, can open up doors for better opportunities in the future. Like mystical guides the Fates are conspiring to bring you where you need to be in order to fulfill your destiny. And sometimes they are not as straightforward as you might think. Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Home, Family, One of your Parents, Family members, matters pointing back to the early childhood, the Ancestors, your Homeland, your Supportive Community, and the End of a Matter.
Cancer
(3rd House) What you hear, what you learn, and what you see can have a transformational effect on your mind and perspective with this week’s Lunar Eclipse. This can be the result of something you read, something you are studying or wanting to learn more about. Even random conversations with the neighbors, or the people in your everyday life that you casually know can make you feel as if it is time to move on. The neighborhood and environment is changing, and old connections seem to fade. What was once so familiar, no longer is. You could even feel a bit like a stranger in your own neighborhood. Something is missing. Or you are just not connecting the way you used to, leaving a vacant lot and a void in your head and your heart. It can serve as a reminder of the ways that we take so much for granted. That can include that neighbor that you once knew so well, or your favorite hangout closing their doors. Or perhaps that Farmer’s Market or Community garden you kept meaning to join, is now no longer available. Or that healthcare center that you bring your children to is shuttering. Whether it’s the diner, the local hospital or the library. It’s the things that bring a sense of belonging and community. What are the ways that you might rekindle and better support those important connections to the people and things in your community? Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Your neighborhood and environment; the way you perceive things; What you have heard, What you have learned; certain communications; how well you get around, your neighbors, your siblings, the people that you meet each day in your everyday life..
Leo
(2nd House) The Lunar Eclipse on Tuesday is pointing you towards the natural ebb and flow of the cycle of reciprocity, of giving and receiving. These eclipses can impact income and your relationship to material self-worth. It can even change the way you feel about money, spending, wealth and ownership. And you might want to explore with this particular Eclipse those things that you are having a really hard time letting go of? What is that thing or things that you feel you just can’t survive without? Even though you know that you can. At some point you come to the realization that it’s not the stuff, it’s not the money, or the chocolate cake that is needed right now. No amount of retail therapy is going to fill whatever spaces are needing to be filled. Rather what is needed is faith. Faith that you already have so much more than you realize. And that you are already enough. You are talented enough, wise enough, educated enough, skillful enough. And no amount of spending, owning or having will fix that. Listen to your wallet, and make the distinction between what you really need, and what you are merely craving at the moment. Then see what you can do to further cultivate the confidence that what you have to offer the world is much more than you give yourself credit for. We all know those people who are rich in their hearts, and extend that sense of wealth and sustainability to all that they meet and come in contact with, no matter their net worth. Be that person. Some things that may come to the forefront with the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo might be about: Finances, Possessions, Investments, Sustainability, Self-worth, Self-esteem, your true priorities, and Survival.
Virgo
(1st House) The Total Lunar Eclipse on Tuesday is in the sign of Virgo, at 12º Virgo 51’. And if you happen to have any personal points in your natal chart, including your Sun, Ascendant or Rising sign, or your Moon at or around this degree of Virgo, or are born between the 3rd-7th of September, you will be especially sensitive to this Blood Red Moon this week. All Virgo-kind are bound to feel the shift that can occur when an eclipse falls in your own sign. For these are often years that stand out as significant turning points in our lives. Also note, that especially with South Node Eclipses, such as this one is, that you could be feeling like something important to you and your life is being eclipsed, or needing to end. Lunar Eclipses are like culminations in our lives, where endings and beginnings seem to merge, and where we are being shown things about ourselves from another perspective. What you experience or learn from this eclipse can have such an impact, that you will never be able to see things quite the same way again. Some sort of evolutionary portal is being opened up, and even though you don’t know what will be waiting for you on the other side, you are being asked to walk through. But in order to do so, you are being asked to leave some things behind: old habits, old patterns, anything or anyone that is holding you back and preventing you from growing, or being able to connect with others in a healthy and supportive way. Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Your sense of self, Your personal self-development; Your physical and mental health and well-being; How others see you.
Libra
(12th House) What are you still holding on to from the past, that is no longer serving your best interests, and may in fact be standing in the way of your own mental health and well-being? That includes anyone or anything that instead of sustaining you, is just exhausting and draining you. It can even feel with these South Node Eclipses, that you are needing to put some things to rest, once and for all. Just as you would if you were cleaning out an over-cluttered closet or basement. In this case you are being asked to clear out the old mental rubbish, ghosts and ancient relics that you are still holding on to from the past. Whether these are old dialogues that are no longer valid for who you are now, or old habits that you insist on feeding, it is time to create space for better things to come in and take their place. One way to get rid of an old habit that is undermining you, is by replacing it with a better habit or routine that feeds and sustains, rather than drains you. However, as you are cleaning out the cobwebs from the past, also pay attention to that box shoved in the back corner of your mind. That box filled with the dreams and the talents of a life well lived. These too can be found here. And like a box of old mementos, dare to open it without regret, judgment or remorse, knowing that this is the treasure that had been hidden beneath all the space junk in your mind. All that is required to find it again, is to get rid of some of that clutter taking up all that space in your mind. See what might be coming to the surface concerning: The Past; Secrets; the Forgotten; Endings; Partings; your Dreams and your subconscious Drives; What needs releasing? What needs revisiting?
Scorpio
(11th House) The Lunar Eclipse in Virgo on Tuesday is a time of culmination. Endings, completion, results unfold. It can tie things together, and show us what we were unable or ready to see before. This Total Eclipse in Virgo can show you the ways that your previous hopes and wishes are no longer serving the person that you are now. You could come to this conclusion through a series of realizations that let you know that what you previously yearned for, no longer suffices. Those activities and company that used to bring their own rewards, no long do, and may even make you feel diminished. As a result you could find yourself parting ways with others, maybe even leaving an old group or association, in order to find your own way in the world. As a result some of your aspirations could be shifting as this series of eclipses weaves their course through your life. And even if you are not entirely sure where you are heading yet, there will still be this feeling of having outgrown a former life, and therefore needing to leave some of your previous hopes and wishes behind that you have outgrown. Eclipses can close doors, but they also open doors that will help to support your evolutionary growth. And in order to facilitate that process sometimes we need to let go of something that we once strongly identified with. It’s time to venture in a new direction that supports your evolutionary growth. Doors will open. But first you have to let the previous door close behind you. Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Changing alliances and friendships; People or groups that you are connected to; Shared aspirations with others; Networks; Social Media; and shifts in your Aspirations, Hopes and Wishes for the Future.
Sagittarius
(10th House) It is not unusual in the years that the eclipses fall in Pisces or Virgo, such as this week's Lunar Eclipse is, that there will be significant shifts and changes in your goals, your status or reputation. Great beginnings, as well as endings can occur when the eclipses spin their webs and weave our destinies. The thing is that Eclipses can be so unpredictable from our perspective, as we cannot see the bigger picture. Therefore be willing to roll with this series of eclipses where both endings and beginnings seem to merge. This particular Eclipse could feel like something of a culmination, a conclusion of a chapter, or show you the ramifications of decisions made in the past. Also know that because we can’t see the bigger picture, what may feel like a loss or a defeat may turn out to be the very thing that can open the way for you to fulfill some greater purpose. Like having to pass through some sort of initiation, there is a process here that you are compelled to go through. And all you can do is to walk through the door that the eclipses are opening, even if it doesn’t look like it at the time. Walk through the door, and have the courage to see what is waiting for you on the other side. Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Your Public status; A particular Role that you are known for within your community; Your reputation; your Career; Goals, Your Boss, Authorities, the place your Work for, One of your parents, your Destiny.
Capricorn
(9th House) One thing we can become aware of with the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo on Tuesday, is that the truth is not necessarily found in some mysterious foreign land, or in a cave tucked into the side of a mountain. Often the truth can be found more close at hand, and in the more mundane quarters of our lives. Lunar Eclipses, such as the one we are having this week can even prove to be revelatory. They can show you things that you had not previously realized or known, and as a result significantly change your whole perspective and the way you view the world. And when Eclipses such as this one is accompanied by the South Node, we are also being given permission to change our mind, to change our position on things, to even change our beliefs. Any previous ideas or assumptions that are getting in the way of your internal growth are likely to be challenged when the eclipses fall in this area of the chart. And sometimes we have to be content with not having all the answers. When we are ready to humbly listen and be open to learning, that’s when true knowledge and understanding can be achieved. And never is that more possible than when the Sun, Moon and the Earth are in such perfect alignment as they are with this Total Lunar Eclipse in Virgo. Look for matters to come to the forefront concerning: Religious, Political or other Beliefs; Travel, Journeys, Education, Certifications, Courts of Law, Legal Decisions, Relatives and Places overseas or far away.
Aquarius
(8th House) One thing that can become evident when the eclipses fall in the area of the chart that the Lunar Eclipse is on Tuesday, are the karmic consequences and repercussions of choices, promises and decisions made in the past. Endings and beginnings intertwine with Lunar Eclipses, as they also do in this area of the natal or solar chart. Births, deaths, rebirths, renewals all reside here. As do obligations, debts and contracts. The Eclipse can reveal what you do have control over, as well as what you do not, as it shines a light into what had previously been hidden from view. Because of what you learn or come to realize in the wake of the Eclipse, you may decide to break old contracts, back out of promises or agreements that had become too burdensome, or free yourself up from that which had been holding you back and weighing you down. This is when we have had enough and say “No More” to that which instead of supporting you, and feeding you, is merely depleting you or preventing you from thriving. That can be financially, emotionally or psychologically. But in some way the books are needing to be rebalanced, in order to support your own sense of self-worth. Therefore ask yourself: What is feeding you and making you feel supported? And what is only diminishing your sense of self-worth? What needs to stay? And what needs to finally be released? Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Life and Death; Renewal and Rebirth; dips in the Market; Taxes, Loans and Debts; Wills, Inheritances, Surgery, Rehabilitation, and Planning for the Future. Also found here are the Pandora’s box of habits, obsessions, fears and dreads.
Pisces
(7th House) It is not unusual when the eclipses fall in Virgo or Pisces as this week’s Lunar Eclipse is, that there might be significant events concerning your closest relationships with others. Great beginnings and endings in your relationships can occur when the fates sit at the foot of the Tree of Life weaving our destinies. It could even feel as if they are colluding, in order to draw some people together while parting others. Whether separating or uniting, this is all in service to fulfilling your destiny in some way. The Lunar Eclipse on Tuesday could represent either an important change in a particular relationship, or a change in your partner’s life that also affects you. It could even feel as if the ‘time is well nigh due’, for some sort of revision, either in a particular relationship, or the way that you have been doing relationships in general. If endings occur, it’s usually in service to one or both of you needing to go in a different direction in order to fulfill that destiny. That includes opportunities for personal growth and a whole new way of being. As a result of what transpires in eclipse seasons can so affect your perception of things that you will never see things quite the same way again. Expect matters to come to the forefront concerning: Partners, Adversaries, the Competition, Allies, Close friends and mentors, Advisors, Clients, your Audience and the World at Large.
