Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.
October Solar Eclipse

On October 2, 2024, we will be experiencing a Solar Eclipse in the sign of Libra at 10°. 

 

If you have natal planets either conjunct, opposition or square to this position, primarily the Conjunction and Opposition, you will be affected by these energies, and possibly in a powerful manner depending on other transits in place at the time when this eclipse is in effect.  You can allow a 3° orb of influence, so planets between 7° and 13° of this placement in the appropriate signs will be influenced.  All major aspects will have some effect on this placement. 

 

A few months leading up to this timing will begin to show what has potential to manifest.  This influence can be strong for about one year, but last as long in years as the eclipse lasts in hours.  According to www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2024-october-2 the first location to see the partial eclipse begins at approximately 11:43 a.m EDT and the last place to see the partial eclipse ends at approximately 5:47 EDT.

 

Since this eclipse is in the sign of Libra (you always must take into consideration the sign and the house placement of any eclipse), the main influence will have to do with relationships.  This may include your spouse or significant other, close friends or business associates.  It involves fairness, justice, balancing, harmonious yearnings and perhaps making things right. 

 

It often encompasses new beginnings or endings and opportunities for significant change.  There is often an important shift where we must let go of what was or the past and move ahead possibly in a new direction.  Important life events are often tied to when Eclipses’ energies take hold, and again the house position will define what area of life may be involved.  Transformation and change are key characteristics of eclipses.  Sometimes it can bring unexpected change when we least anticipate it, but this change is often just what is needed in the long haul.

 

Transiting Mercury is closely tied to the conjunction of the Sun and Moon during this eclipse, and this suggests that the mind is closely tied to what takes place.  You may have been thinking about things for some time and now is the time for action or when action takes place.  Sometimes destiny seems to prevail and much of what takes place is beyond our control.  Things change because they need to.  Intensions play a big part in what unfolds, and goals also come into play.

 

Along with Transiting Mercury, we also have a Grand Water Trine with Venus (love and affection), Mars (sexual energy and drive) and Saturn (a steadying effect which can solidify things and bring stability).  The Grand Water Trine suggests emotional connections have the potential of working well and moving along nicely.  You are self-sufficient at handling any events that may unfold, and you do not depend on others to do the work necessary or to move you in the intended direction.  The emotions may be kept under wraps at this time as you know you can handle anything that may surface, and things flow without obstruction.

 

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.

On Saturday, October 14, 2023, we will experience a Solar Eclipse at 21° in the sign of Libra.


Anyone with planets or angles within three degrees of this placement in their natal chart, either by conjunction or opposition or to a lesser degree by the other major aspects will be influenced by this eclipse. Check the placement of this eclipse along with the aspects it makes, and the natal configurations attached to this position in your chart. Natal potential will give a clear understanding of the energies in place and their potential in your specific case. Each chart will have different dynamics in place and although the energies of a Solar Eclipse often bring the same conditions into life, the areas of life will differ from person to person.


Solar Eclipses, although quite different from a Lunar Eclipse, often signify the likelihood of some form of stress or in some cases a crisis. With the Solar Eclipse, there is an indication of the initial stages or beginnings where there are opportunities, although we are often hard-pressed because what we feel comfortable with in our life, now has changes in place. These changes can be quite vast and will be defined by the placement of the solar eclipse in the chart. What is now in place (beginning phases of this transformation or alteration) will set the theme for the future, some six months ahead, although many Astrologers believe the influence of these solar energies lasts much longer than six months.


There is a sense of destiny in place often with karmic indictors and in this case related to relationships of significance because of the influence of Libra. As mentioned, this Solar Eclipse is at 21° Libra. This can be a time of balancing and creating harmony in the sphere of relationships. Harmonizing is especially essential, and it is important that we also check the opposite house (Aries) to see which other area of life will be affected. If there are planets in your chart at this position (21 degrees give or take 3 degrees of influence) this placement will also be affected by this event.


E.g. Someone with their Neptune in the tenth house conjoining this placement with the eclipse at close proximity, would have indications of spiritual evolution or psychic indicators that would pertain to the career path or goals and aspirations. Neptune would evoke something connected to the psychic realm or some spiritual offerings. This will also affect the home and family because of the fourth house location in opposition to the tenth house placement of this eclipse. The tenth house alignment would be where this Solar Eclipse makes its mark.
