Sagittarius Eclipse
This morning at 4:30 a.m. I drove from my house with a friend to Lake Macintosh in town to meet up with friends to watch the eclipse moon set over the mountains. There is something magical in witnessing an eclipse, what a stunning site. It felt like a completion of sorts.
This eclipse is connected to the eclipses from June 5th 2020 (full moon lunar in Sagittarius) and December 14th 2020 (new moon solar in Sagittarius). Think back to around those dates, maybe there is a pattern or a cycle that comes to mind. Since a year ago, something may have ended to start something new. Now we are yet again at a time of deep release, sometimes loss, or an ending. What started around those dates that is coming to a possible end or completion now? How are you staying adaptable to change and shifting your perspective?
Last summer on June 5th 2020 I completed my 300 hr teacher training, now almost one year later at this eclipse, I reached my goal of teaching over 1,000 hours of yoga, offering continuing education credits to teachers for Yoga Alliance. My goal was to earn this milestone and be able to present at the Yoga Teacher Conf! I accomplished that last weekend and I can't wait to see what comes next. So for example, one this ended (my training) and I started on a path of reaching teaching hours to be able to offer credits to other yoga teachers (my astrology for yoga teachers - Sagittarius is the teaching of higher mind/perspective). This is just one example of how following eclipse cycles can play out in our lives.
This flower super blood moon total eclipse was visible to the Western US early early this morning. (so many moon names lol). A Full Moon Lunar Eclipse happens when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, causing the moon to turn red. This was at 5 degrees Sagittarius, so those with 5 degrees of this sign or any of the fire signs Leo and Aries are also feeling that impact. It affects everyone differently, find it in your chart and which house it falls into. If you don’t know, book a reading with me!
An eclipse is a pivotal point in our life path, whether we are consciously aware of it or not. Consider the themes and symbolism of this full moon eclipse release for you:
Full Moon seeks surrender to a higher path
Sagittarius rules the higher mind, learning, further studies/education
Writing, publishing, knowledge, wisdom
Adventure, life experience through international travel
Foreign cultures, foods, music, etc
Ruled by Jupiter, it is optimistic, opportunistic, and lucky
The Archer – Fire Sign
High Energy - we may not be able to sleep well
Eclipses come in pairs, in two weeks we will start a new cycle with the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Gemini. It will be conjunct retrograding Mercury - communication will be in the spotlight.
Take time this week to pay special attention to your hips, thighs (Sagittarius) and your shoulders down to your hands (Gemini). The sun and eclipses are taking their time in these areas of our bodies. Breathing exercises will come in handy for grounding yourself if feeling anxiety with this moon, plus the Gemini Air sign rules the lungs.
Deep breaths through the life changes you may be experiencing at this time.
In-Joy and Love,
Sirena
