The Eclipses Are Coming - A Triple Play - Summer 2011

June 1st, June 15th, and July 1st, 2011

This Summer's eclipses may just creep up and surprise us. Things could start off with some unexpected pleasures or opportunities, but before they are finished we may find ourselves struggling to get along. We can't really blame it all on the eclipses, because there will be outer planetary trouble brewing around the same time. But, each of the 3 eclipses will also become progressively more troublesome.

Usually eclipses come in pairs and mostly twice a year, but this summer, we've got three in a row -- bang, bang, boom! Eclipses bring changes, and where they occur in our natal chart determines what areas of our lives will be affected. Eclipses can be the best determiner in predictive astrology. What that means is, when you look at the year ahead, you check to see where the upcoming eclipses will land. Its the easiest way to get quick a look at someone's astrological future.

Our first eclipse will be a partial solar eclipse on June 1st at 3:50 AM EDT. It will be at 11 degrees 3 minutes in Gemini. Obviously this eclipse will impact Gemini and Sagittarius, but it will also impact all the air signs, Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius. That's because this eclipse will be at a very tight, very positive aspect to Saturn in Libra. This will help to bring patients and stamina to the scattered Gemini in our personalities. Because eclipses bring changes, and Saturn rules hard work, we may find that we receive some long overdue rewards for our past efforts. We may also be ready to begin working at making positive changes in our lives.

The next eclipse will be a total lunar eclipse on June 15th at 4:12 PM EDT at 24 degrees 22 minutes in Sagittarius. This eclipse will not be making any aspects to any major planets, and there won't be any other planetary influences going on. So, anything we feel out of the ordinary at that time can definitely be blamed on the eclipse. Total eclipses have more "umph" than partial, so there will changes happening. Often people find change difficult and uncomfortable, and we don't like it! With this eclipse happening in Sagittarius, we may be expected to learn something new, possibly for the job, or we may just notice that there is an air of pessimism about. There could also be problems with neighbors, computers, our vehicles, and travel, so try to stay flexible.

As I mentioned above, these eclipses will get progressively worse, and this last one will be the grand finale. It will be a partial solar eclipse on July 1st at 4:38 AM EDT at 9 degrees 12 minutes in Cancer. Obviously this eclipse will affect Cancer and Capricorn, but there will also be problems in Libra and Aries (all of the cardinal signs). This eclipse will be at a very negative aspect to Saturn in Libra, and 9 of the 10 major planets in our solar system will be at some aspect to one another. Thats a lot of commotion all at once. The eclipse itself could bring problems and changes in relationships and at home. There could be marriage an/or family issues, and there may also be financial or even health problems (especially stress related health issues). The other planetary problems may actually amplify the eclipse energy, and they may cause problems to emerge in other areas of our lives including criminal behavior and repressed anger. But, there will also be a potential for great windfall in business, gambling, and even love. Because of this positive potential, those who can rise under pressure may actually find this eclipse energy will reward them.

And, thats the end of our Summer trio. The eclipses will return in November and December to upset Geminis and Sagittarians once again. If you are wanting to know more about how these eclipses will affect you, contact your favorite astrologer. Even a few minutes with an astrologer can help you learn more about yourself and your chart than you may realize.
