If you don’t know your rising sign, read from the POV of your Sun Sign if born during the day, or from the POV of your Moon Sign if born during the night. The themes of this partial Solar Eclipse may carry on for the next year and a half, as the Capricorn-Cancer axis in your chart is activated by the transiting nodes.
Aries: Big one for you Aries. Happening in your angular 10th house of career and status, this eclipse can bring about monumental change in the work you do in the world and how you are seen, received and praised for it. It may have the power to catapult you into success, so long as you have the Capricorn work ethic and integrity to back it up and don’t stop short to start something else. Otherwise, an eclipse here may teach you to be a bit more methodical about your work in the world, going about it with backbreaking diligence, and learning to find success through the accomplishments of smaller goals that accumulate over time. It will call for an organization of your efforts and an attention to the details of your dreams. In some cases, you may experience a breakthrough or breakdown with a boss/mentor/father-like figure. Or even a sudden change wherein you are the boss or have the final say. But do not despair, anything that seems to fall apart here is creating space for something better to take its place. With transit Saturn and Pluto already here, this eclipse will give you the energy to eliminate or make you aware of useless endeavors. And to move forward onto the world stage with the part you’re meant to play, and the power of conviction to know you’re making the right choices.
Taurus: The eclipse in your 9th house, dear Taurus, represents a new vantage point through which to view your beliefs and your ingrained ideologies. Perhaps a gateway will open up, allowing those things foreign to you and your experience to settle in and teach you new ways. Movement in the 9th house always confronts what you believe to be true. Where you are rigid in your spiritual or religious pursuits, the eclipse may ask for flexibility. Where you lack follow-through in these areas, then discipline. Where can the altars of your mind be dusted off, where can new magic seep in? It may be that your worldview needs more scope, so that it can expand and change as you grow. This may be done, perhaps, through travel or committing to higher education. But whether your trips are internal or external, this eclipse dusts off your proverbial suitcase, asking what deserves to travel with and inform you on this journey of life. Bon voyage!
Gemini: The Capricorn partial Solar Eclipse will be happening in your 8th house of joint resources, shared belongings, intimacy and occult matters. This eclipse will enlighten within you new ways to ask for what you need, share what you have and start confronting any financial issues (debt, inheritances, scholarships, savings, deeds, loans, etc.) that are stopping you from living comfortably. The eclipse will ask you to set new goals and intentions in these areas, and commit to correcting them with dutiful action. Issues of worth don’t only pertain to our physical or monetary possessions, but also the worth of our stories, our pain, our trauma, and how when shared, they become transformed. Our most intimate bonds are those in which we reveal layers of ourselves with others, transmuting vulnerability into a super power. The eclipse here may bring to the forefront intimacy issues you have with others (or yourself), where you may have one foot out of the door instead of fully committing to being seen. In Capricorn, this is practical. We share our stories with those who deserve to hear them, and over time, strengthen our trust in these areas. 8th house is also said to be rich with mystery, sometimes a conduit to otherworldly matters. Set up a shrine, hold a crystal, meditate on a thought or intention, and open yourself up to communication from your cosmic companions.
Cancer: This partial Solar Eclipse will place emphasis on your 7th house of relationships with others. Relationships can be business, romantic, or platonic in nature. With Saturn and Pluto already firmly planted here, you may have found your relationships challenging or requiring that you grow beyond ingrained patterns. You may have even found that you’ve been attracted to powerful and consequential people who irritate your more soft sensibilities. This eclipse is a New Moon, and in your relationship house, opens up a portal through which you can experience your relationships differently, out from power struggles and into feeling empowered. New Moons can also bring in new things, so you may even expect to attract alliances that are more in line with the power you are coming into now and the person you want to be. It is very influential to have an eclipse happening in an angular house, so you more than most signs can expect to feel this eclipse more strongly. Commit to building powerful and productive relationships, and sweeping away the old and tired dynamics tying you to any drama in this area.
Leo: In your 6th house, the Solar Eclipse wants you to think about your routines, your service, and your health. What perfunctory actions are you taking out of blind duty? Do they actually add to your life? Does your service actually serve you? Where are the lapses in your health? To be of service to the world, you must be in service to yourself, and tweak the ways you relate to your body. Build a routine where all aspects of your life and body are served and respected for the jobs they do and the jobs they help you get done. Eliminate the wasteful, non intentional action. Stop going through the motions, and live instead with intention and focus on health in all areas. Where you may tip toe into doing more for others or be in anxiety about how much needs to be done (which transit Pluto and Saturn can trigger) this eclipse brings back into perspective the need for self-care. Associated with perfection, the eclipse in your 6th wants you to define what perfect is to you. A job well done, and a body well tended for, no matter how it looks, is perfection enough. Build these muscles over time and you can style your life into a more fitting lifestyle.
Virgo: Your 5th house of pleasure, children, sex, creativity and joy will be getting the cosmic vibrations of this Solar Eclipse. You may have been hard on yourself here, restricting the flow of joy, finding it hard to be uniquely who you are, or facing stumbling blocks on the way to expressing yourself or your creativity. The eclipse can open up wellsprings within you, wherein words, ideas, or indulgent activities come pouring forth. Nothing in Capricorn is superfluous, so you can expect that your brilliant ideas here will have ramifications in other areas of your life, truly taking hold and helping you redefine who you thought you were. The call here is to build fun and flow into your daily life and into your identity. In time, these changes and creations could even make you popular in groups, communities and the world at large. But start first with the audience that really matters: yourself.
Libra: You are another sign that will be feeling this Solar Eclipse a bit more strongly than others. In your 4th house, this eclipse is all about revamping your domestic structures, be them your actual home, or the people and places that you call home. You may feel changes opening up for you in terms of where you live, or may experience changes through the happenings of others in your family unit. The eclipse may want you to build better roots and foundations, and the places and people therein, that truly support you. Are there members in your family that bring you down? Or ones you need to let in more? Or is there a living situation with a roommate or friend that could be better or changed? You may literally move, or set your sights on a move later, or else energetically move to find the roots in your life—the people, things, places, activities that hold you down and anchor you. Time to find and be selective about your tribe. Your resting place is your nesting place—and this eclipse wants a solid place to hatch.
Scorpio: In your 3rd house, this Solar Eclipse can bring about news, information and communication from others/siblings that will be vital to your progress. Whether you experience a sudden insight, or you hear truths coming from others, this eclipse wants you to adjust how you communicate and how you express your ideas. You may even find yourself changing long-held ideas, or endeavoring upon new ways to learn about subjects that interest you. New perceptions and new ways of seeing things are paramount, so keep your mind open—they may inform your way forward. The eclipse wants to further build upon these new mental machinations, making sure what you think and say (and therefore feel) are in alignment with your beliefs about life and yourself. You may even need strength to communicate things to others that you’ve otherwise held in (Saturn). The eclipse gives you this opening, asking that you be more rigorous with your truth-telling and with the information you allow to settle in your mind. This eclipse may also throw a wrench in your every day environments, asking you to strengthen your adaptability, and behold new ways of maneuvering your communities.
Sagittarius: Mind on your money and money on your mind. This eclipse is highlighting 2nd house issues of material possessions and concepts of security and worth. Your relationship to you bank account or the way you define material success is up for scrutiny here. Where you feel insufficient or insecure are the places that most need your attention. This eclipse asks you to make strong where you feel weak, so that you have a solid ground on which to accumulate, collect, enjoy and behold. You may change how you are making money, either through different income streams or through budgeting. You may even come into financial gain, one that asks you to nourish and take care of it so that it may multiply. Any lack you feel here becomes the empty space on which to intentionally call in more. Our immaterial worlds also need enriching. Where are your under-valuing yourself? Where can your self-esteem use a boost? This isn’t a quick pick me up, but an invitation to construct a formidable dignity and love of self. In Capricorn, this confidence comes with work, but stands to serve you for the rest of your life.
Capricorn: Of course you know this Solar Eclipse is a big one in terms of your identity and how you wish to come off to the world. In your 1st house, this eclipse is inviting you to overhaul old identities which no longer serve you and step into ones more in alignment with your path. No one gets to stay the same forever, and you more than most signs are acutely aware of the passing of time. Have you outgrown the skin you’re in? Are you ready for a new vessel through which to experience life? The first house is also known as a house of health, so match your evolving identity, to yourself and to the world, with a physical forms that can support it. With Pluto and Saturn already here, you have been in a period of excavation, reforming and rebuilding your personality, how you interface with the world. Over the next year and a half, and starting with this eclipse, mold this mask with grace and intention, no matter how rough the going gets or how painful it is to say goodbye to who and what you were. Steadfast, goat. Rome wasn’t built in a day. But it ruled the world.
Aquarius: Happening in your 12th house, this eclipse may begin one of many spiritual insights or awakenings for you. In this house, lunar and solar properties are hidden from our awareness, making this eclipse more fundamental to your psyche and unconscious processes. Any psychic muck or deeply entrenched emotions will be activated, so that they may be acknowledged, so that they may be healed. You may also find yourself deeply sensitive to the needs, emotions and motivations of others, as the wellsprings here are lined with the unconscious undulations that connect all of humanity. 12 housers can be some of our most profound teachers and artists, so you may expect to feel wiser after this series of eclipses, more in tune with the world around you. There could be urges towards isolation, research, or other rabbit holes of your making, even travels to faraway lands. The goal is not to lose yourself here, but to become more yourself through the consolidation of your ethereal worlds with your material ones.
Pisces: In your 11th house, opportunities are abound for building your social networks in ways that work for your future. It is also a ripe time to evaluate those friends and communities that serve your goals and hopes. If there has been a hard fought road to be recognized in your career or social circles, now may begin the admiration or awards for your work and talents. For some, there may be a revaluation of your long-term dreams, and the people you are choosing to be a part of that. This eclipse may open up for you new groups of people to commune with. There is momentum in numbers, so you may join new clubs, associations, or otherwise surround yourself with the likeminded people who will feed your passions and respect your skills. New friends, new allies. This is a public and social time, perhaps catapulting you into positions of relative fame or prominence. You may have to learn how to work a room, and present yourself and your accomplishments in ways the world can take seriously. But either way, so begins the reaping of rewards from the company you keep.
