THE ARIES-LIBRA ECLIPSES CYCLE
The Lunar Node changes every 18 months. On April 20.2023, we started a new Lunar Node cycle- Aries and Libra. They repeat and return to the same signs every 9 and 18 years. If you want to know what to expect, go back 9 or 18 years and think what happen during this time, you can have some clue, you can expect to have similar experience or some kind of connection with the events of that time.
Aries is associated with leadership, assertiveness and courage and the eclipse in Aries is about opportunities to take a leadership role or take charge of a new project. It is time to take risk, to be bold, to assert yourself in a new, pioneering way. Eclipses in Aries are fast-acting. We might start feeling their effects a few weeks before the eclipse.
During Aries/ Libra eclipses leaders might rise or fall. New leaders can unexpectedly come to power, as eclipses brings fast action and surprises. Eclipses in Aries can bring extended stretches of dry, hot weather, resulting in fires. Be especially careful with fire hazards around the time of the eclipse and watch out for speeding drivers! And don’t speed yourself.
Libra is the sign of partnerships, diplomacy, justice, harmony, beauty, love and family. It brings opportunities to work on our relationship’s issues, to find balance in personal and professional life, to improve our communication with others, especially significant ones. Eclipses in Libra can bring some surprises around legislation, laws and elections.
Aries eclipses are a fantastic time to redefine our identity, especially if we feel like we need to take more charge of our life! With Aries and Libra, it’s about balancing the need for assertiveness and compromise. Finding the optimal balance between our needs and the needs of our partner. Eclipses can disrupt the delicate balance in your relationship, so if your relationship is on the rocks, tread carefully during Libra eclipses. Relationship issues might come to a head. It can shake up your life a month earlier, if you are cardinal sign. It depends on your sign and ascendant, eclipses will effect more powerfully the cardinal signs, with Sun or rising sign in Aries and Libra, Capricorn and Cancer.
Full Moon in Aries, followed by New Moon in Libra
By September 29, we witness the Full Moon in the sign of the brave fairy Aries. This is the end of a project that leads to the so-called harvesting of the seeds we planted on the around the New moon in Aries on March 21.2023. A new venture or project that we started then is at its conclusion now. The Full Moon means to free ourselves from obligations or from unpleasant people or events, to clear our way to move forward freely and happily. It is not easy to take decision, because we are emotional (it is full moon), still it is necessary to move on, to succeed. Remember, when one door closes, another opens soon.
This new door is the New Moon and Solar Eclipse on October 14.2023 at 21 degrees in the sign of Libra. It is associated with a new partnership, a new beginning, in personal or professional aspect. The Sun is a male figure, a new job, a new boss, a new project or process, a new direction in terms of partnerships and relationships. Although with many difficulties, this is a new lunar cycle and we will see the fruits of the seeds we sow now in the next 6 months or even within a year.
Today, I am asking you: Follow your heart and soul and write down what you really want to change or to create, what you will going to work on for the next 6 months, even during a year, as the Eclipses in Libra and Aries continue until March 24. 2025.
The key words for Libra New moon: Open and honest communication with others. Clarity and justice. Restoring harmony, peace and balance within the family or in the office. Where the Aries, the opposite sign calls to be brave, authentic and to think: “If I am happy, everyone around will be happy”.
During the eclipses and years ahead, follow your heart and be brave!
