The Solar Eclipse in Leo of August 11, 2018
On August 11, 2018, a partial Solar Eclipse takes place at 18º in the fiery kingdom of Leo. The Eclipses of 2018 are part of a long eclipse cycle on the Leo/Aquarius axis.
This cycle started in August 2016 and ends in January 2019 and is the second to last Leo/Aquarius Eclipse.
Solar and Lunar eclipses are the real conduits of change in our lives for the coming months and years to come.
The total Solar Eclipse of August 21, 2017 is still fresh in the memory of many.
Anyone with the Sun or Moon, Lunar nodes, ascendant or MC in or around 18º in Leo or Aquarius or 18º Taurus or Scorpio will have to deal with major changes!
Planets or Lights in Leo or Aquarius will be triggered during these Eclipses.
The Houses with Leo or Aquarius on the cusp show where you can expect in your life.
In a partial Solar Eclipse, the shadow of the Moon will cover only a small part of the Sun.
The conjunction of the Sun and the Moon with retrograde Mercury in Leo takes us back to the past.
This Solar Eclipse in Leo is actually the least fierce of the three Eclipses of 2018, because there are no cumbersome planetary influences involved.
The only annoying aspect can be the square of retrograde Mercury with Jupiter in Scorpio.
This could lead to excessive optimism, arrogance, impossible promises and exaggerated claims in business, but also in relationships.
Traveling and transport can be a real challenge.
Things seem too good to be true. It is advisable to check all information twice that comes to us. The path to true love or the right job is never easy.
The square between Mercury and Jupiter challenges us. Challenge someone else to fight for you, because only then will you really know if it’s for real or just an act or whenever because a romance, job or friendship is convenient.
Retrograde Mars is in the immediate vicinity of the asteroid Lilith.
So the theme of equal rights for women is clearly highlighted, so this Solar Eclipse can imply a revival of the MeToo movement.
Venus in her own sign Libra dances in harmony with the Lunar Node in Leo and this reinforces this female energy in the coming months.
The planetary Water Dance of Jupiter and Neptune increases awareness and perception to a higher level.
Saturn in Capricorn, the planet of karma, dances with the unpredictable Uranus in Taurus.
This earth dance will bring us stability and technological innovation in the long term.
Immediately after the partial Solar Eclipse in Leo of August 11, 2018, retrograde Mars returns to Capricorn.
So Mars will dwell in the same sign as Saturn and Pluto.
We will be dealing with the same intense dynamic from mid-March to mid-May 2018.
From August 27, 2018 Mars turns direct and will remain in Capricorn until September 11, 2018.
Everything in life is cyclical.
And so is this Solar Eclipse on your extraordinary cosmic journey!
