Eclipses Bring Radical Change
Eclipses are a phenomenon that has captivated the human imagination. These celestial events have been regarded with awe and reverence throughout history, and it is not difficult to see why. Eclipses are powerful cosmic events that can bring radical change to our lives.
Eclipses occur when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun or when the Earth moves between the Sun and Moon. During an eclipse, the light from one celestial body is blocked by another, creating a momentary darkness that can be seen from certain parts of the Earth. This darkening effect has long been associated with change, transformation, and even upheaval.
Throughout history, eclipses have coincided with major events in human. For example, in 585 BC, a total solar eclipse was observed during a battle between the Medians and Lydians in what is now modern-day Turkey. The sudden darkness caused by the eclipse was interpreted as a sign from the gods to stop fighting, leading to an end to hostilities.
In 1504 AD, Christopher Columbus used his knowledge of an upcoming lunar eclipse to his advantage while stranded on Jamaica by convincing locals he could make it stop if they did not provide him with food supplies.
But why do eclipses have such power? It is believed that these celestial events release large amounts of energy into our world that can affect us both physically and emotionally. Eclipses are also known for bringing sudden changes into our lives - sometimes positive but often challenging. This change can manifest in different ways depending on where the eclipse falls in our birth chart.
For example, a solar eclipse in the 10th house of career may bring changes or challenges related to our professional life. On the other hand, a lunar eclipse in the 4th house of home and family may bring changes or challenges related to our personal life.
It's important to remember that change is not always easy but it is necessary for growth and transformation. Even if the changes brought about by eclipses seem difficult at first glance, they may ultimately lead us towards greater joy and fulfillment in our lives. It's okay to feel overwhelmed or uncertain, but remember that you are not alone in this experience.
Eclipses bring radical new change into our lives but also offer opportunities for growth and transformation. By harnessing the energy released during these celestial events, setting intentions, paying attention to signs and synchronicities, embracing new experiences, and practicing self-care, we can navigate through challenging times with grace and emerge stronger on the other side.
How to Navigate Eclipses
While some may fear the unknown that comes with transformation, it's important to embrace change as an opportunity for growth and new beginnings. Shifting your mindset from one of resistance to one of acceptance and excitement will help greatly.
The first step in embracing transformation is accepting that change is a natural part of life. Without it, we would never evolve or progress. Think about the person you were five years ago versus who you are today. Chances are you've grown in ways you never thought possible. Change can be difficult and sometimes scary, but without it, we remain stagnant.
The next step is to embrace new opportunities that arise from transformation. When faced with a sudden change during eclipse season, it's important to remain open-minded and see each shift as a chance for something positive. This could mean taking on a new project at work or reconnecting with an old friend who brings joy into your life.
It's also important to remember that transformation doesn't happen overnight. It takes time and effort to adjust to new circumstances, so give yourself grace during the process. This could mean taking time for self-care practices such as meditation or journaling, or seeking out support from loved ones.
When navigating change during eclipse season, it's helpful to stay grounded and centered amidst challenging times. This could mean finding solace in nature by going for walks or practicing yoga regularly. It's also important to maintain healthy habits such as eating well-balanced meals and getting enough sleep.
But while embracing transformation may seem daunting at first glance, there are techniques for channeling the energy released during eclipses towards growth and personal development. For example, setting intentions before each eclipse can help clarify goals and focus energy towards desired outcomes.
In the end, embracing transformation requires both courage and vulnerability - two qualities that can be difficult to embody at times. But remember, change is a natural part of life that allows us to evolve and grow. By shifting your mindset towards one of acceptance and excitement, you'll be better equipped to navigate the ups and downs of eclipse season and beyond.
The good news is that these skills of courage and vulnerability are fine tuned during the New Moons & Full Moons. So if you've been working with the moons, you are in good shape.
So go forth with an open heart and mind, ready to embrace all the new beginnings that come your way. And always remember, transformation is not the end - but rather, a radical new beginning.
Now that we've covered the basics let's discuss practical tips for navigating Eclipse season.
1) Know Where the Eclipse Fall in Your Chart:

For example, making sure important documents are up-to-date and organized can help ease any stress that comes with sudden change.
2) Set Intentions but be Open:
Set intentions for what you want to achieve during eclipse season. Write down your goals in a journal or on a piece of paper, focusing on what you want to release from your life and what you want to manifest in its place. Keep these intentions in mind as you navigate through challenging times during eclipse season. That said, often the changes cannot be planned so develop the capacity to view change as an opportunity to for personal development.
3) Stay Grounded & Centered:
This means taking time for yourself each day, whether through meditation, journaling or spending time in nature. By tuning into your own needs and emotions, you can better manage your response to external events.
4)Pay Attention to Synchronicities:
It's also important to pay attention to the signs and synchronicities that occur during eclipses. These events may seem random at first, but they can hold clues about where we need to focus our attention or what changes we need to make in our lives. Keep a journal of any unusual occurrences or insights you receive during this time.
