A New Moon PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE happens on March 29, 2024 (2:49 AM, Philippine Time), at exactly 10°03 minutes in the realm of cardinal air, LIBRA, the sign of the justice.
Solar eclipses are associated with beginnings, shifts in direction, and developments that can influence the months ahead. Like a New Moon in steroids, a Solar Eclipse tends to highlight areas of life where new cycles are forming, sometimes requiring an adjustment in perspective, priorities, or focus. These moments can bring clarity or introduce circumstances that may lead to new, but seemingly fated paths.
The grand finale of the ARIES-LIBRA eclipse cycle is finally here, dear reader. After a long, arduous process that began in April 2023, we now reach the final leg of this journey—with chipped armor, bent swords, bruised egos, and a myriad of other afflictions we’re finally ready to leave behind and heal from. In this battle, victory isn’t the goal—it’s a given. We need only to make it through the next six months, and we’ll be rewarded with a lifetime of lessons, earned through our own blood, sweat, and tears.
ARIES, the sign of the warrior, is relentless. It doesn’t fall into the trap of overthinking, strategizing, doubting, or ruminating. Instead, it rushes forward—headfirst—guided only by impulse and intuition. The unknown is met with urgency. Fear is loud, and crisis is daunting. But instead of cowering, Aries uses it all as fuel. The more afraid it feels, the more compelled it is to charge ahead.
You’re scared? Do it scared.
You’re tired? Do it tired.
You’re nervous? Do it nervous.
Such is the archetype of the Ram. As the first sign of the zodiac, it exudes action and movement. And from this raw energy of newness, things come into being.
This particular solar eclipse closes a three-year saga, dear reader, offering and truly, completely jumpstarting long overdue beginnings wherever it lands in our charts. Filtered through the energy of ARIES, the very first sign of the zodiac, the universe pushes us—boldly, unapologetically—toward the places we fear to tread. We are compelled—catapulted, even—to punch through repetitive circumstances that have caused stagnation in our growth.
Wherever this lunation falls in your chart, the pressure may feel intense. At times, it might seem as though the universe is forcing your hand—and when frustration, resentment, or even helplessness begins to surface, remember this: this exertion is not asked of you out of cruelty, but out of necessity.
Emerging on the other side allows us to finally meet the most authentic version of ourselves we’ve been forging and sculpting all along—through impulsive adventures, heartaches, and realizations that have filled us almost to the brim. This is where we stop bleeding and start blazing!
To embrace this eclipse energy is to trust the forward motion, even if you don’t yet know where it leads. It is to walk away from what keeps you small, even if it once felt like home. It is to choose growth over comfort, truth over illusion, and courage over compromise.
The next 6 months may feel like a breaking point, dear reader – tempers flare, frustration builds. But like a phoenix rising from the ashes, it is also a birth point, with the abrasive emotions corresponding to birth pains. Whatever you’re releasing, you’re not losing—you’re liberating. And whatever it is that you’re stepping into may feel uncertain now, but trust that it holds the seeds of peace, purpose, empowerment, and authentic alignment.
Let the Ram inspire you to charge forward.
Let the Scales guide you back to your center.
And let the closing of this eclipse cycle remind you:
you are no longer who you were—you’re becoming who you’re meant to be!
The sky is shifting, dear reader.
So must you!

*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!
