I am a huge fan of astrologer Leah Whitehorse. She has a brilliant way of articulating the astrological energies and this particular article on the coming Lunar Eclipse is particularly enlightening and more specific than some other analyses I have read. Just sharing this for the benefit of followers with an interest in astrology. I had not realised the Full Moon’s connection to asteroid Black Moon Lilith at this eclipse but if you have been feeling isolated or unaccepted or struggling with feelings of rejection/abandonment its important to note this is part of the archetypal journey of Lilith and may be highlighted leading up to the Full Moon on Thursday. There is also a big chance that this eclipse will bring an encounter with what is buried deep within the emotional shadow of ourselves and others over this period. The New Moon Solar Eclipse of the 13th was in lunar/moon ruled Cancer and will have highlighted emotional needs frustrated or denied or buried (Mars has been retrograde during this eclipse period and will stay so for another five weeks). Sun opposes Mars with the Moon and South Node on Thursday shedding light on how we may act in ways that make us become our own worst enemies, defences that may need to be surrendered, launching us on a search for better ways to go about expressing our true vulnerabilities and getting our emotional needs met.
