Solar Eclipses
A Solar Eclipse occurs at the New Moon when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, temporarily blocking the Sun's light. Astrologically, Solar Eclipses represent new beginnings, fresh starts, and sudden opportunities.
Types:
- • Total The Moon completely covers the Sun. Most powerful astrologically.
- • Annular The Moon covers the Sun's center, leaving a 'ring of fire' visible.
- • Partial The Moon only partially covers the Sun.
Lunar Eclipses
A Lunar Eclipse occurs at the Full Moon when Earth passes between the Sun and Moon, casting Earth's shadow on the Moon. Astrologically, Lunar Eclipses represent endings, completions, and emotional revelations.
Types:
- • Total Earth's shadow completely covers the Moon, often creating a red 'Blood Moon.'
- • Partial Only part of the Moon enters Earth's shadow.
- • Penumbral The Moon passes through Earth's faint outer shadow. Subtle visual effect.
Astrological Significance
Eclipses are cosmic wild cards that accelerate change and bring fated events. They occur in pairs (a solar and lunar eclipse) roughly every 6 months, creating 'eclipse seasons' that shake up whatever area of your chart they activate.

FAQ
How often do eclipses occur?
Eclipses occur in pairs (or sometimes triplets) every 5-6 months. There are typically 4-6 eclipses per year total.
Do I need to see the eclipse for it to affect me?
No. Eclipses work astrologically whether visible from your location or not. However, if you can witness it, the experience can be personally powerful.
What should I do during an eclipse?
Traditional astrology advises avoiding major decisions during the eclipse window (±3 days). Instead, observe what emerges, reflect on changes, and wait a week before acting on eclipse revelations.
