“Just remember that the influences of an event like a Total Solar Eclipse, like the one on April 8, 2024, can be both collective, and very personal, as with how it triggers your own Birth Chart.” – Michael O’Connor


Tip of the Week:

The so-called Great American Solar Eclipse occurs on Monday, April 8 at 2:31 pm EST. The exact degree is 19 Aries. As relevant as eclipses are and as significant as their impact can be, this one is gaining an inordinate amount of attention. There are several reasons why it has captured the attention and the imagination of people the world over.

Here is a breakdown of factors:

  • The path of this Total Solar Eclipse crosses that of the most recent one in the United States in late August 2017.
  • The exact cross point is located at the New Madrid fault line.
  • The path also encompasses a series of small cities with the same name with biblical references called ‘Nineveh’ which has stirred a lot of fear, especially among strongly devout Christians who are referring to it as a ‘bad omen’.
  • An unusual ‘horned’ comet dubbed ‘The Devil’ comet will be visible during the actual event, contributing to superstition-driven fears, also especially among religious types.
  • CERN it so happens will resume its next round of experiments with its large hadron collider on April 8, 2024, adding even more fuel to already ignited imaginations.
  • NASA will be conducting ‘tests’ by firing 3 rockets designed to illuminate the sky 45 minutes prior, during, and after the event.
  • Most schools, many businesses, and so on are canceled for the day with a ‘state of emergency’ being called with the National Guard on full alert.

These coinciding factors altogether are adding up to produce a lot of anxiety among large segments of the population. I wrote an article offering some more in-depth astrological insights which I posted last week, but just in case you did not see it, here again is the LINK to read that.

This week’s Horoscope will provide some insight into the possible influences you can expect in accordance with your Sun Sign.

Weekly Horoscope:

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

This now-famous Solar Eclipse in your sign is destined to activate a whole new level of assertive, self-expression. Your ambitions and drive will be triggered. However, you will be contending with feeling blocked, and discipline and determination will be required to offset inertia and apathy, especially in April.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)

Since this eclipse will occur in your solar 12th House, you might not feel or notice its effects as much as others. There are other possible factors to consider, however. Especially due to Jupiter and Uranus in your sign, the impulse to push through any restrictive barriers has been, and will continue to be strong. It could feel like your soul is pushing your ego aside.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 21)

Rediscovering who you are within the context of others and a rapidly changing outer dynamic, continues as a central theme and challenge. You may feel as though you are caught between worlds, between what once was and what will be. Accepting your role to contribute to the situation by surrendering to the flow and cooperating is perhaps your best choice.

Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

The call to assert versus the impulse to retreat continues. It does appear that the assertion factor will prevail however, and you will notice this shift this week. Ironically, the key is to surrender…, to the fact that you cannot deny, avoid, procrastinate, or escape any longer. The time for decisive action has arrived and you will soon feel its full force.

Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23)

A deep dive has been underway for many months. A regenerative process of some kind is implied. One way or another, the new is being born out of the old, and what has served its time needs to be replaced. Fortunately, this eclipse stands to inspire new visions and activate your energy levels. Yet, it may take until May for the momentum to build.

Virgo (Aug 24 – Sep 22)

This Aries Total Solar Eclipse stands to have quite a powerful, transformational effect on you. It occurs in your Solar 8th house, the domain of transformational Scorpio. So, you should expect one or even several processes of transformation to be activated. The signs of these are probably already there, but they will be extra clear soon.

Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Aries is your polar opposite sign and is directly associated with your relationship destiny. The hidden pearl of this understanding is that the primary relationship is always with your own body, mind, heart, and soul. That said, there are significant others in your life as well. Expect activations on both ends of this poll from this eclipse.

Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The quality and health of your lifestyle is a personal journey. No one can eat or exercise for anyone else, for example. So, it comes down to personal choice and responsibility. Any tendency to feel victimized or to blame others is a trick of your own mind, and you are also the one who is fooled by it. Personal power is anchored in choice and personal responsibility.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

What makes you special? This is an important question, and it should not be interpreted as ego-centric. We all have various gifts and talents and the purpose of this eclipse is to jumpstart a process of identifying, laying claim to, and affirming your unique qualities. Doing so within the context of your existing reality, unless it is blocking you, is probably wise.

Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are an independent warrior at your core. At worst, this could manifest as rugged individualism that is abrasive to others. This eclipse is destined to ignite your resolve to assert yourself. Doing so with conscientious integrity is the high road. While you can’t please all the people all the time, aim to proceed with authentic diplomacy.

Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

In the subtle reaches of this eclipse are seeds of change associated with your lifestyle and working life. Since the influence of an eclipse can linger for many months, this process may not occur suddenly, yet you should get a few clues over the next couple of weeks. Watch for the signs, both outwardly and as personal changes in how you think and feel.

Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)

This eclipse stands to activate the drive and determination to generate a more abundant flow. What kind of abundance you feel you want and need is for you to decide. Finances are the obvious focus, but perhaps it is increased energy levels, more inspiration, more attention, more fun, or adventure, or all of the above. Take time to reflect on what kind of flow you want to increase.
