the Sun will be eclipsed by the New Moon
in the 21st degree of Leo.
Given that all eclipses entail
the involvement of the Lunar Nodes
(oft noted as points of profound karmic energy),
these transits have long been described
as major turning points,
as signaling twists of fate,
and carrying great potency.
The Solar Eclipse,
when the bright and life-giving Light
is obscured by the Moon,
tends to magnify the Lunar influence.
This Lunar essence
being decidedly Maternal,
of Origins and the Womb,
of the Past,
carries a South Node affinity.
Thus, the Solar Eclipse can spark
a glorification of the Past,
and stimulate Nostalgic Forces.
On the other hand,
the Lunar Eclipse features the Moon
obscured by the Earth's shadow,
suggesting an eagerness,
or perhaps even a foolhardy impulse,
toward the Future.
The upcoming Lunar Eclipse of the Full Moon
will occur in the 5th degree of Pisces
on Aug 27, 2026 at 11:18 pm CDT.
This window of Eclipses
between Aug 12 and Aug 28
(including buffer-days before and after)
is a potent time which may demand balance.
There is a powerful pull from the Past,
and a mighty beckoning toward the Future.
There is a tension between
the Force of Destiny
and the Volition of Individuals.
There is both a call to Surrender
and a call to boldly Act.
