Aries
This Solar Eclipse brings heightened awareness and sensitivity to your standing in society and your professional goals, dear Aries, as it happens in the professional or public sector of your solar chart. There can be feelings of excitement or uneasiness, depending on how you handle change, surrounding career, reputation, and life path matters now. There can be an initial feeling of being stuck, blocked, or uncertain of your next step. Going forward, it will be a good time for developing new business plans and goals. A sense of renewal and reinvigoration regarding your career goals is on the horizon. Changes in work, focus, life direction, bosses, authority figures, reputation, or your own authority and influence can occur now and in the coming few months. It’s a time to focus on the elements of your personality that you are projecting in your career or to society, with an eye for improvement. Significant shifts in how others see you can occur now. There can be recognition for your accomplishments.
You are more actively aware of the need to bring added structure or rules into your life, or you might decide you need to improve your performance and general practices so that you can better follow certain rules. This is a phase in which you are exceptionally busy with career or public responsibilities. However, it’s also a time for balancing home and career. Drama or commotion stirred now paves the way for new approaches and new beginnings. A fresh approach is encouraged. Goals for self-mastery and self-discipline should be made at this time. This is a phase when you will be busy with career and/or public responsibilities, and you may encounter some pressure to do so. This eclipse is part of a set occurring from mid-2018 to mid-2020 that encourages you to find a better work-home life balance.
Your goal now is to enter new beginnings with healthy confidence. You have more impact on others than usual, so use this time in the spotlight well, and avoid hasty moves. Making nice with people in high places, teachers, bosses, and parents can figure strongly, and there can be substantial changes in your life when it comes to your own influence or authority or with authority figures in your life. Eclipses often have an effect of wiping out our energy as the slate is cleaned, after which energy slowly rebuilds.
Transits occurring at the time of the eclipse have more staying power than usual since they are tied in with the eclipse energy. A Mercury-Mars square suggests impatience can be costly, particularly with words and methods, but a Sun-Neptune sextile suggests the consideration of spiritual goals can boost your business, or that you can benefit from past work and efforts now and in the coming months.
Taurus
This Solar Eclipse falls in the sector of your solar chart that rules your spirit to grow, explore, and expand beyond the “regular” experiences in your life, dear Taurus. This can bring invigorating events into your life that serve to nudge you out of your usual routine. You are making a break from the past in some manner, which will help clear the path for future growth and development. There may be opportunities to broaden your horizons through travel, education, life experience, or adventure. There can be emerging opportunities to publish or promote your work, share your ideas, and enjoy mind-expanding experiences. Meeting important people through these endeavors is possible.
Transportation issues can also be in focus, with new avenues opening up for getting out and about. This eclipse might also bring some of you into contact with lawyers, professors, or publicists. It’s a good time for exploring the world, or new perspectives, with friends.
The period ahead is excellent for discovering and expressing your need for exploration, travel, learning, new horizons, and spiritual food. This can be a time of a significant publishing, announcement, advancement, or new adventure, whether mental or physical. Events occurring now and in the coming weeks and months can serve to push you out of your routine. In some way, you are making a break from the past. This eclipse is part of a series of eclipses from mid-2018 to mid-2020.
Often enough, eclipses bring about a small crisis or shake-up that prompts a new direction or the need to venture beyond the usual routine. Eclipse days can be emotionally exhausting, after which energy and motivation slowly but surely rebuild.
Transits occurring at the time of the eclipse have more staying power than usual since they are tied in with the eclipse energy. Watch for impatience, particularly when communicating your plans. Rushing things will do you a disservice now. A Sun-Neptune influence helps pace you and encourages you to check in with your ideals. Friendships may be forged now. A Venus-Chiron transit active now is fabulous for your personal appeal, charm, and sincerity which comes shining through now.
Gemini
With a Solar Eclipse bringing powerful energy to your intimacy sector, the period ahead is one of empowerment and discovery, dear Gemini. This is a time for working on yourself from the inside out, for addressing dependencies and issues of support, and for improving an intimate relationship. If you’ve been too dependent on others, or the opposite, too proud to ask for help, then you’ll see and feel it acutely at this time, and you’ll want to make changes. The period ahead is outstanding for focusing on issues of intimacy and sharing, as well as for developing self-mastery skills. Goals to reduce debt, to get support, to quit a bad habit, or to understand your psychological workings better are favored now.
If you’ve been holding on too tightly to a relationship or a financial arrangement, then this is a time for coming to terms with the dependency. It can also be a time when you’re wanting/asking for more depth from a project, relationship, or endeavor. Use this eclipse’s positive blast of energy to sort out financial support issues or emotional entanglements as you go forward. If you’ve been going it alone, this can also be an essential cycle for reaching out and finding the support you need. On the other side of the coin, if dependencies have become burdensome or are limiting your growth, now is a great time to work on putting them behind you. Taking small, progressive steps makes the most sense.
When a Solar Eclipse occurs, it’s a time for turning over a new leaf in a particular area of your life defined in large part by where the eclipse falls in the chart. In your solar eighth house, you have a chance to see your inner workings in new, meaningful ways. It’s important to be patient so that things can unfold naturally. Don’t push for clarity, and it will come! Energy levels can be unusually low around an eclipse, and then they’re slowly but surely restored going forward.
Occurring at the time of, and imprinted into the energies of, this eclipse is a Mercury-Mars square, which can give you a sense of haste that may not be warranted. Watch for impatience, particularly with your communications. A Venus-Chiron trine and Sun-Neptune sextile also tie into this eclipse and boost your sense of support, calling, or mission as well as your connections with others now. Imagination and sincerity are important “ingredients” for success at this time.
Cancer
With a Solar Eclipse bringing powerful energy to your partnership sector, dear Cancer, you’re in a strong position for new beginnings regarding your close relationships. Negotiations and one-to-one relationships are highlighted now and in the coming weeks. It can be a time for beginning new relationships or redefining existing ones in significant ways. A stronger awareness of the role someone plays in your life or the need for support and companionship may be in focus now. If you’ve been holding on too tightly to a problematic relationship, then circumstances now might push the matter.
When a Solar Eclipse happens, we are still symbolically in the dark, so that today and the next few are suitable for paying attention to news coming in and feelings emerging, but taking new action should wait at least a few days. Energy levels can plummet initially, and then they’re likely to rebuild slowly but surely later. This eclipse is the second in a set of many eclipses that began in mid-2018 and will end in mid-2020.
Important decisions may be required of you in the coming weeks and months, particularly revolving around personal finances and business or personal possessions and valuables. For some, this can be about boundaries in a relationship or your sense of self-worth and how it affects your ability to support yourself or ask for what you want. For Moon-ruled Cancers, any eclipse can bring heightened sensitivity. Because it occurs in your opposite sign, it has more impact on you and possibly a significant other in your life. Changes are in the works.
The months ahead are important ones for exploring your need for partnership, whether this is about starting a significant relationship, committing to enhancing an existing one, or recognizing changing needs regarding relationships, dependence, and autonomy, in general. Take in now, and take action when it feels right. Making contacts or making something public can be themes for some of you in the weeks ahead.
Leo
This Solar Eclipse can prompt a refresh or new chapter in your life related to work, health, habits, and routines, dear Leo. It heralds a period when new diet regimes, healthy routines, and satisfying work schedules can be successfully initiated, and current ones improved or revamped. You’re in a strong position to take care of business, handle details, and increase your efficiency. Circumstances around you can force these matters or simply motivate and prompt you to want to make big changes. It’s a good time to recognize and honor your limits regarding how much you can give and do. It’s time to structure your life.
This period is marked by a desire to sort things out and to be useful. Over the coming weeks, it makes sense to take charge of your health, self-care initiatives, and work. If you’ve been holding on too tightly to a difficult work situation or job, then this is a time for letting go and starting anew.
Be sure to pace yourself and don’t jump into something without thinking. A new direction will come, and you don’t have to push for it. However, you’ll feel the motivation and courage build, and you’re likely to get to a point where you’re in charge and confident of what you’re doing. Self-improvement is in high focus. Clearing up the clutter is necessary and beneficial now. It’s common to feel drained around the time of an eclipse, after which your energy increases. Solar Eclipses often affect you more than others because Leos are ruled by the Sun, and it makes sense to take a light schedule. New plans and projects are on the horizon.
Virgo
This Solar Eclipse occurs in your sector of romance, creative self-expression, recreation, children, and hobbies, dear Virgo. Events happening now and in the coming weeks set you up for new beginnings in one or more of these areas of life. Romantic inclinations are highlighted, as are any kind of celebratory, playful, and just-for-fun endeavors. You will be especially aware of your need for approval and feedback from others during this period, deriving pleasure from the ways your creativity impact the world around you. This can be a passionate time for you and a time when you might feel bolder about sharing yourself or your creations than usual.
If you’ve been holding on too tightly to people or projects that have been keeping you from expressing your true self, this is a time for making necessary changes.
You are likely to attract positive attention from others, especially romantically or creatively speaking, in the weeks and even months ahead of you. You may be starting a new hobby, reviving an old pastime, or stepping up a current one. You are making big decisions about recreation, hobbies, love, and children now and in the coming months.
Even if your life seems crammed with things to do, you need to learn to make the most of the time you do have for enjoying yourself. Pace yourself, though, because rushing into something is not advised now. Allow the process to unfold. Eclipses can drain your energy temporarily.
Libra
This Solar Eclipse clears the way for new beginnings, dear Libra, particularly related to your personal life or living conditions and arrangements. It’s time to assess what may have been holding you back from thriving, mainly related to your career and home life. The coming weeks are powerful for taking charge of your home life, attention to matters of security and safety, connecting with family and your own emotions. This eclipse can serve as a cosmic nudge to find your roots, learn your worth, build your sense of security, and focus on building your support system or base of operations.

This eclipse is part of a set occurring from mid-2018 to mid-2020 that encourages you to find a better work-home life balance. For some of you, this can mean a new job or job focus and/or moving house. However, for many, it’s about balancing and reorganizing your duties so that you perform better.
You’re coming in touch with basic feelings and needs that you may have overlooked in the past. The Solar Eclipse is a cosmic nudge to pay special attention to your support system as well as the support and nurturance you give others. Improving living conditions and arrangements can be in strong focus. There can be some drama on the domestic front, but this ideally leads to a fresh perspective or a new beginning. Changes and improvements may be necessary as you reorganize your personal life, or shuffle around your priorities.
Scorpio
This Solar Eclipse launches a favorable cycle in which to turn over a new leaf with your studies, communications, and connections, dear Scorpio. It’s a great time to learn something new, make contacts, and use the power of communications to move your goals forward. In the coming weeks and even months, you are likely to find new opportunities for learning and communicating or avenues for self-expression. In some cases, this is about transportation and could be prompted by an event that forces the issue!
Developing mental rapport with others, sharing ideas, and reaching out or pouring energies into your interests and studies can be in current focus and favorable. The period ahead is excellent for taking care of daily tasks with increased and renewed energy, although you could experience an initial feeling of being overwhelmed since eclipses can wipe us out before restoring energy. News can come that steers you in a new direction. You might suddenly want to take a course or begin a new project, for example.
There can be new channels emerging for expressing yourself in new ways or for getting around town! New equipment or transportation options may open up different opportunities and experiences. There can be motivation to let go of outdated attitudes or conditions so that the path is clear for new beginnings. While the eclipse can overstimulate confidence, in the weeks ahead, you’ll get to an exceptional sense of what is truly valuable to you, and also of your own capabilities, aiding decision-making. Take your time on this.
Sagittarius
This Solar Eclipse happens in your resources sector, dear Sagittarius, and you may be making important decisions in the coming weeks related to personal finances, business, and practical affairs.
On another level, this is a time for establishing yourself and discovering and developing your natural talents and personal resources.

It’s a beautiful time for earthy, tactile, and comforting activities that help you to feel more grounded and connected. If you’ve been holding on too tightly to a lifestyle or financial habits that haven’t been serving you well, this is a time when changes become necessary. New beginnings are in order! This eclipse gives you a fantastic push towards taking better care of your money and resources. Issues of being treated well and with respect can also come into play. It’s undoubtedly a robust period for resolving problems with income, spending, and saving, and it’s part of a series of eclipses in which you explore these themes from mid-2018 to mid-2020.
Configurations occurring around the time of the eclipse influence and color the eclipse’s energies. Notable for this event are the Mercury-Mars square, which can point to haste or sharp words which should be avoided, and a Sun-Neptune sextile, which adds an imaginative or intuitive flair to your endeavors. Try not to succumb to the pressure to do it all right away and consider your ideals as you make plans.
Capricorn
The Solar Eclipse occurring today is in your sign, dear Capricorn, and it helps pave the way towards significant individual changes in the coming weeks and even months. This is a time for reinventing yourself in some personal way, such as with a new look or manner of expressing and presenting yourself. Think about how you present yourself to others and greet the world, focus on changing personal habits in such a way as to improve your confidence, and concentrate on putting your best foot forward, as this is a time when you will get noticed and make a powerful impression on others.
Circumstances can prompt a rethinking of your general attitude towards new beginnings, bravery, your role as a leader, your independence, and the ways you instinctively defend yourself. This is a time when you can be braver and enjoy new experiences. There can be a tendency to dig in your heels and display your independence now, which may be necessary for personal growth, but care should be taken to stay true to yourself in the process. Get in touch with what you genuinely want, envision it, and go for it, but wait for the dust to settle before going all in. Keep in mind that you can feel a little wiped out around the time of the eclipse before energy rebuilds. This is a critical time for personal goals, revisions, new beginnings, and makeovers (physical and otherwise).
You’ll be getting more attention now so be sure to wear your confidence well. Taking the high road is vital. Going forward, people build their faith in you, and this only serves to motivate you further to present the best version of yourself. You are working towards being more independent, a greater sense of freedom, and more authenticity in your presentation. Ease yourself into this dynamic phase of your life.
Aquarius
This Solar Eclipse launches a period of review, letting go, and recharging your spiritual or emotional batteries, dear Aquarius, as it occurs in your solar twelfth house. This is a time for releasing, purging, and healing. This eclipse encourages you to put certain outdated ventures or situations behind you. It may be a time of withdrawal and retreat in a social sense, of soul-searching, and the seeking out of emotional peace of mind. You’re due for extra time to yourself, or with yourself! If you’ve been neglecting your psychic, spiritual, or emotional needs, then circumstances can push you to pay attention to your inner world now.
There can be flooding of energies now which can be a little disorienting, but going forward, you’ll get a stronger sense of what changes need to be made. If you require solitude, then you’ll find ways to get it. If there have been toxic connections to your past, then you’ll be figuring out how to break ties. If you’ve been giving of yourself too much to your own detriment, this is a time for more dedicated attention to your emotional and spiritual needs.
Over the coming weeks, circumstances seem to conspire to take charge of your health, private affairs, and need to put emotional baggage behind you. This can also be a time for giving more time to a person in need or a major cause. Buried or neglected issues can demand your attention, and working on these can pave the road to future success and happiness. You may be serving, helping, and supporting others or it could be a time of retreat and withdrawal on some level as you work behind the scenes.
Pisces
This Solar Eclipse places a strong focus on making contacts and reaching out to others, dear Pisces, in both a social and professional sense, over the coming weeks and even months. Events and circumstances are such that they serve to clear the path for new beginnings, mainly related to how you fit in with friends and the community. You become more acutely aware of your position in life within the context of the group, rather than through self-centered focus. Goals that involve networking, making connections with others, joining or strengthening ties in a group project or activity, and nurturing goodwill are the focus during this cycle that begins today. Some level of drama may be present now, as the eclipse can serve to shake up your social life to pave the way for meaningful changes. In some cases, friends enter or leave your life during this period.
This is an excellent time to reflect on how you’d like to steer your life in the coming weeks, particularly concerning your “place” in the social side of your life. This period favors formulating goals that have to do with future, long-term happiness, or a sense of mission or purpose, aligning yourself with important causes. This can be a crucial time for delegating, collaborating or calling on a team/help so that you have more time to focus on honing your craft or getting time for yourself.
Developments related to friends, happiness goals, dreams, wishes, new ideas, technology, networking, and teamwork are likely to be significant with long-term effects, setting you on a path for personal changes and new beginnings. If existing friendships are in need of a new focus or a renewed bond, then the energy of this eclipse can help in the coming weeks and months. This is not a time for clarity, but one of faith in the process. Keep in mind that eclipses can feel draining before they build you up.
