Focus on Feeling: The Cancer Solar Eclipse (Jul 21)


(10.35pm Eastern, 7:35pm Pacific, 6.35pm GMT.)

Welcome to another big chapter change in your life. And you've already felt it, haven't you. Another opportunity to ring the changes and start anew. A fresh possibility. A new way to do things differently. Especially if you're a Cancer born near Jul 21 or a Capricorn born around Dec 21 (then you'll notice it's a mega time of personal change and growth). But it's a great time for us all.

Here's how to navigate it.

Jul 21 brings us into contact with yet another Cancer New Moon (and a Solar Eclipse) (normally we just get one a year) in the final degree (29 Degrees) of the first water sign of Cancer the Crab bringing us a strong emphasis, in the months ahead on: Our Feelings, Our Habits, Our Past, Where we Live and What's Going On At Home, Family interactions and our Self Comfort.

Solar Eclipses turn out the light in key areas of our lives - to help us to re-member & re-vitalize those parts of us in need of re-awakening.


How often we forget to live as well-rounded souls, experiencing various facets of human existence! Anywhere you're stuck in the past is up for review. Anywhere you're stuck in outdated feelings, is up for change. Anywhere you're in need of shaking out of a rut, is spotlighted. Anything you're ignoring that's truly what need, begins to shout for your attention.

And those lagging areas in your life you now get to re-discover and re-explore at the time of the Solar Eclipse. This one is the longest in the 21st Century, lasting 6 minutes 39 seconds, (there won't be another one longer than this until June 13, 2132!) and is drawing major interest. You can watch an animation of the Eclipse path here.

The Sun is our life force, our sense of self, our reason for being, our illumination and light in the world. During an Eclipse we find a renewal, after a moment when our light is 'cast out' and overshadowed. Then when our light returns, we see things differently. Things we never saw before. We make decisions that affect our entire lives, our central reason for being.

So look for that feeling, and for everyone else around you feeling it too - major decisions are made, major changes arrive. People get divorced. Marry. They move out of town. They suddenly switch jobs. They decide to Totally Alter the landscape of their lives, or find that life forces a shift upon them that does the very same thing.

CHANGE is here in your life, knocking at the door asking you to go. How will this Eclipse be affecting you for the rest of this year and into next year?

Stay tuned for more. But for now, as my personal yoga instructor mentioned today during his class, Solar Eclipses are times when our energy may not be at full capacity. So if your sleep patterns or off, or you feel a lull, then it's just the 're-setting and re-charging of your solar batteries. And soon enough you'll be powered and amped up to continue building yourself a new chapter.

Exciting times. Look for that, then in the months ahead. And maybe, as usual, some strong weather shifts to reflect the Earth's changes also as she shakes things up for herself and all of us aboard her spaceship!
