Vedic AstroPerspective on the Eclipse

[Guest guest]

Hey Folks,

let me know what you think of this,... make sure to

look for the prediction at the end.

 

We will have the first lunar eclipse of 2007 on March

3 at approximately 1120 GMT. This eclipse will not be

visible in most of the United States. On the East

Coast of the United States the penumbra will be

visible.In this eclipse the sun will be in Aquarius

and the moon in Leo. The sun (ego / Atman) is in place

of self-doubt, leading to humility (Aquarius). The

moon (Heart / emotions), is in place of

self-confidence and projection (Leo). Yet both of

these energies are eclipsed by the luminaries. We are

being challenged to universalize our personal power,

and orient our consistent actions toward a goal that

is beneficial to all. Maintaining our self-esteem and

a healthy emotional outlook while willingly

subjugating our personal desires is being tested.This

brings many possibilities in romantic relationships,

because much of the time it is our selfish nature that

eclipses our partner’s needs, and the relationship

itself.In this eclipse, the ego is being eclipsed in

the sign where we doubt our personal power, seeking

humility. The nurturing and tender heart is being

eclipsed in the sign where we generally assert our

individual power.

 

Culturally, this eclipse is a foreshadowing of the

next six months, where we will be tested to subjugate

our personal needs for more progressive causes and

humanistic ones. Perhaps we will finally decided not

to eat animals simply because they taste good —

perhaps we will decide that we can actually ride our

bike or walk somewhere rather than waste gasoline.

Perhaps we will become more efficient in recycling.

Perhaps we will decide the only turn the water on when

we need to wash off the toothbrush, rather than leave

it running needlessly, mindlessly. Perhaps will turn

the light off after we leave the room, etc.

Bringing complexity to this mix is a retrograde

Mercury joined the sun. There are some real

possibilities for communication mishaps that force

these personal and social compromises. In fact, we may

be seeing the effects of this placement already.

Generally the entire month of an eclipse cycle begins

a foreshadowing of the major themes. Notice the stock

market “corrected” itself last week and most shocking

of all, Brittany Spears finally checked into rehab.

(Then checked out again, or at least that’s according

to “People”, “Entertainment Tonight” had a different

story — and yes does this mean K-Fed gets the kids

now?) oh yes, perhaps we will stop paying attention to

silly celebrities and there lives and start paying

attention to our own life, spiritual progress and

problems.

 

This eclipse is happening with two exulted planets,

Mars and Venus which also foretells in importance on

personal issues for the next six months — in

particular, strengthening both our masculine and

feminine natures. Having the courage to know what to

fight for and when (Mars) and how to fight and why

(Venus) will also be issues on the table.

 

Natural Disasters

 

This particular eclipse also has the ominous

possibility of some natural disasters. As with all

full moons especially, earthquakes and seismic

activity increases around these times. Notice on the

south Indian chart to the right, retrograde Saturn and

Mars are both very close to the eclipse axis, right

next to it. If you visualize the earth in the middle

of this chart, you’ll see every planet except Jupiter

and Venus are either joined the sun and moon or in the

adjacent sign.

 

In this case there are three planets on one side of

the earth and four planets on the other side of the

earth. Each of them asserting their gravitational

force in opposite directions. This gravitational force

tends to open the tectonic plates in the earth’s

crust, which leads to seismic activity.

 

This weekend we could see some major seismic activity:

earthquakes, volcanoes, etc.

Today is March 6 as I am reading your post with great interest. As for the

earthquake prediction, you were right on the money with Indonesia. I found

your post fascinating, different from things I have read. Thanks
