As we approach the final three Eclipses of the year—the Lunar Eclipse on September 18th, the Solar Eclipse on October 2nd, and the Partial Lunar Eclipse on October 16th—their effects are already rippling across the globe. The days leading up to the Eclipse season may evoke a sense of restlessness in many, sparking a deep urge to shift habits, let go of old attachments, and embrace change. It signals a period of closure—a preparation for the fresh start that comes with the Solar Eclipse on October 2nd, 2024.
Eclipses are powerful astrological events that occur a few times a year, each symbolizing pivotal endings and new beginnings. A Lunar Eclipse happens when the Earth moves between the Sun and the Moon. In astrology, this is observed through the alignment of the Sun, Moon, and Lunar Nodes. Specifically, a Lunar Eclipse occurs during a Full Moon when the Sun and Moon are in opposition and aligned with the Lunar Nodes. Meanwhile, a Solar Eclipse happens during a New Moon when the Sun and Moon are together near one of the Nodes.
But how does this Eclipse season specifically affect you? Let’s look at what you can focus on to benefit the most from this time based on your rising sign and the houses in which the Eclipses are happening.
