A
Closer Look at the Solar
Eclipse....
Here is a brief outline of the effect of the Solar Eclipse and the
areas of life most likely affected….For more information on the
Lunar Eclipse, follow the link to
the relevant page or go to the
Aug-Sept Eclipse
overview page.
Partial
Solar eclipse in Virgo
Solar eclipses emphasise the masculine or yang aspect and is
therefore associated with males, father-figures, authority,
self-awareness and self-expression, the ego. The focus in energy
is generally outward and therefore more likely to manifest in
the form of external events.
Date:
11 September 2007
Sign:
Virgo
Virgo is a mutable earth sign and is associated with
practicality, detail, healing, body issues, craftmanship and
hard work. Negative Virgo characteristics include: anal
retentiveness, being overcritical, verbal carping or nagging,
lack of spontaneity, a tendency to avoid making decisions or
taking overall responsibility, fussiness and small mindedness.
Moon phase:
New Moon
Because an eclipse happens between the sun and the moon, there
will always be a moon phase involved! Solar eclipses always
occur at New Moon because this is when both luminaries are on
the same side of the earth. New Moon are linked to new
beginnings or a change in direction.
