Sabian Symbol: ♎︎ 22° A child giving birds a drink at a fountain - Keyword: Solicitude

Affirm: I avoid being taken advantage of, and find self-fulfilment in discovery that the fruits of the everyday justify selfhood, and responsibilities consummate the ideals of my inner nature.

Solar eclipses can be highly fated energy and bring either endings or simply breakthroughs as we finally figure out something important and align with a better way. This can be a Phoenix rising energy, or a fiery crash, depending on how we choose to work with what we experience. The challenge will be finding diplomacy and balance when energies may suddenly shift rapidly.

This is a South Node☋ eclipse, meaning we deal with past-life (and past of this life) partnerships of all types, codependence, indecision, and other forms of toxicity which have been holding us back. This is not an energy where we can go back; we’re pulled into forward moving energy whether we think we’re ready or not. As solar eclipses have more of an external energy than internal, we can experience moments of illumination, knowing what we have to do to continue on the path which is for our Highest Good. We can begin to actualize that path now.

This is a powerful opportunity to let go of old stagnant energy, or if we can’t decide which way to proceed, we may be presented with a new option.

Opposition☍ with Chiron (while Mercury☿ also opposes Chiron and conjuncts the ☽ and ☉) brings close attention to healing messages which are wanting to come in. This is a beginning of letting go, though it’s not a time to create sudden moves, despite the urge.

Mercury☿ in Libra♎︎ opposition☍ Chiron in Aries♈︎ - affirm: I resist any urge to voice negativity towards those who I feel have hurt me, as I know that it could easily backfire into lack of clarity, leading to further misery. I work to own and heal out the pain I’ve been holding within.

We have a quincunx⊼ with Uranus⛢ retrograde℞ in Taurus♉︎ which ramps up the intense, uncomfortable energies with dissonance - yet we’re forced to make some level of peace and integrate these energies.

□ With Pluto♇ in Capricorn♑︎ challenges us in areas we were already finding difficult; we may have to compromise where we don’t want to, or transform in ways we think we’re not ready to. As painful as this can be, keep in mind that if we surrender to the process, this can ultimately be for our Highest Good.

Chiron Can help us go as deep as necessary, and ♇, if not struggled against, can keep us responsible.

Remember that as ♎︎ is a sign of peace, we have access to that energy as an option (though sometimes not right away), to some extent.

Those with personal placements which meet one of the following criteria are most affected: between 16°-26° (especially if they’re Ascendant / Rising, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus or Mars), or in ♎︎, ♈︎, Cancer♋︎ & ♑︎.
