A New Moon TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE happens on APRIL 9, 2024 (2:20 AM, Philippine Time), at exactly 19°23 minutes in the realm of cardinal fire, ARIES, the sign of the warrior.
The SOLAR ECLIPSE in ARIES this month is conjunct the north node, indicating a time of significant forward momentum and growth opportunities. It encourages us to reach beyond our current limits and embrace the unknown with confidence. By embracing these opportunities, we forge ahead into a new chapter, illuminated by the vision of our potential future, and the wisdom to pursue it.
At the essence of Aries is the spark of initiation, the first impetus that propels us into being. Those aligned with the spirit of Aries are often seen as trailblazers, embarking on new ventures with zest and courage. Yet, Aries’ vibrant energy can sometimes conceal its depth and capacity for sensitivity and introspection. The upcoming solar eclipse offers a window to explore these lesser-seen qualities, especially in the domains of our lives touched by this lunation.
One important thing to know about this eclipse is that it is the second installment of a 3-part Aries Eclipse series, that started last April 2023. An energetic climax regarding the activated story arc is reached wherever this happens in our charts, so buckle up dear reader! The next 6 months will be quite a revelation, yes, but understanding the energies at play can help us navigate the twists and turns, so we can soldier through this period thriving and unscathed!
Eclipse Configuration
This Solar Eclipse gives us such a potent push forward, which may be unsettling on the onset, but rewarding if we take up the challenge. Aligning with the North Node, a mathematical point that represents goals that we need to conquer, this lunation motivates us to expand beyond our boundaries. The North Node guides us towards our potential for growth and evolution, taking us out of comfort zone, but allowing us to gain strength, wisdom and fulfilment in the long term.
This eclipse also forms a powerful conjunction with Chiron and Venus, adding to its marks as an event of deep significance. Chiron, the healer of profound wounds, illuminates our deepest hurts, offering a chance to turn vulnerabilities into strengths. Chiron’s role accentuates the transformative power of our wounds as sources of healing, suggesting that our most painful scars can become sources of empathy and connection for others. Venus, symbolizing our values and relationships, encourages a revisiting and necessary readjustment of how we relate with another. Venus’s influence highlights the importance of our values and relationships in defining ourselves. After all, there is no self without the existence of the other.
The overriding message of this eclipse is one of integration—melding the light and shadow within to create a cohesive self. This process is not about eliminating our fears or sidelining our less desirable traits but about recognizing and embracing them. This acknowledgment is the gateway to healing and self-evolution.
Embracing the Energy
This unique configuration of this Total Solar Eclipse challenges us to confront and reconcile the various aspects of ourselves—the visible and the hidden, the bold and the vulnerable. It teaches us to persevere through tough, seemingly insurmountable challenges, reminding us that true courage lies in the ability to press forward despite overwhelming fear. As we advance, facing inevitable setbacks and delays, the eclipse teaches us the importance of patience. After all, patience is not mere passivity, but a deliberate state of calm in the face of urgency and turmoil. This reveals that the true measure of virtue lies in our ability to maintain composure during moments that trigger our deepest provocations.
In a time when blending in appears to be the simplest path, this eclipse also encourages us to stand firm in our uniqueness! The essence of Aries, centered on self-affirmation, becomes a light guiding us to recognize our individuality. This journey of self-discovery is not an indulgence in ego but a quest to understand our place and identity within the broader fabric of life.
The eclipse acts as a driving force, dear reader, urging us to dive deep into our inner selves, to face our fears, and to express our desires and aspirations. It invites us to see our vulnerabilities not as shortcomings but as fountains of true strength and authenticity. By confronting our triggers and choosing to hold our ground, we truly capture the essence of Aries – endurance, indomitable will, and the unwavering bravery to forge our own path.
As we navigate this transformative period, let us remember that the journey towards self-integration and authenticity is the most profound adventure we can undertake. In doing so, we emerge, likely scarred, but empowered, ready to embrace the future with an open heart and a renewed sense of purpose. ❤
*IMPORTANT: Avoid making life-changing decisions about a couple of weeks before and after the eclipse date. Tensions are high, and energies are quite volatile, so it’s best to let things cool down first!
