The Solar Eclipse in Aries of April 20, 2023
When the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, the light from the Sun is overshadowed by the Moon, there is a Solar Eclipse.
A Solar Eclipse has a major impact on the world around us, but also in your own world.
The New Moon April 20, 2023 is a total hybrid Solar Eclipse in Aries.
A Hybrid Solar Eclipse is a total Eclipse, but it begins and ends as an annular Eclipse.
This Total Hybrid Solar Eclipse can be seen in Southeast Asia, the Pacific Ocean, Australia, Indian Ocean and Antarctica.
This Eclipse is extra special, because it is the second New Moon in Aries in a row.
The previous New Moon in Aries at 0º50 fell on March 21, 2023, the beginning of the Spring Equinox….
Each constellation is divided into 30 degrees. This rare hybrid Solar Eclipse occurs at 29º50 in Aries which is the anaretic degree.
This anaretic degree represents the end of a karmic cycle, in this case the first sign of Aries.
The first Solar Eclipse of 2023 at 29º50, in the 3rd decanate in the Vernal sign of Aries, is a new and powerful evolutionary beginning, but also marks the absolute end of what has already ended.
Collectively, this Solar Eclipse in Aries conjunct the Fixed Stars Alrisha and Acamar affects the breaking of karma regarding our authentic selves and destiny.
Do you live for yourself or is your life being lived?
Expect the unexpected ….
This Solar Eclipse in Aries is going to shake us up, because the ever-expanding universe has taught us that standing still means going backwards.
This is the first Solar Eclipse of the cycle on the Aries/Libra axis and is part of a series of eclipses on the Aries/Libra axis from April 2023 to March 2025:
The upcoming eclipses on the Aries/Libra axis are an annular Solar Eclipse on October 14, 2023 in 21º08 Libra, a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse on March 25, 2024 at 5º07 in Libra, a total Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024 at 19º24 in Aries, an annular Solar Eclipse in Libra on October 2, 2024 at 10º04 and a partial Solar Eclipse in Aries at 9º00 on March 29, 2025.
