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.
