Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces 2007

Eclipses of the moon (lunar eclipses) are traditionally seen as bad omens but really they are not. Women and family are more likely to be affected AND at the center of actions than are men. You see, the Moon governs the feminine, emotions and relationships. The effect is more personal.

Mutuable signs
If you are a Pisces, Virgo, Gemini or Sagittarius, this lunation will be very significant for you.

The Lady Vanishes
What I have observed over the years is that when there is a lunar eclipse, particularly during a Full Moon, a woman is eclipsed from someone’s life. If you are male you may likely find yourself putting and end to a relationship with a woman you know is not meant to be in your life anymore, whether she is a friend or a lover. If you are female, you will likely find yourself on the receiving end of a rather abrupt break in a relationship. Of course you could do the breaking, but the former is more likely.

Emotions and Egos
This total eclipse is at 4°46' Pisces. If you have Pisces planets within 3 degrees, or Virgo planets opposite this degree you will be feeling it rather heavily. Beware of letting the ego and emotions get tangled into an ugly mess! This lunation can prompt a significant change.

Health will be a prominent issue in this eclipse – as it will between now and June 2010. During this lunation – especially and in the week to follow, there will be a pervasive attempt to hide the pain you feel one feels in the ego - to dull the pain and escape from the reality of broken relationships and emotional sorrows through drugs and alcohol. Psychosomatic illnesses and hypochondria will rise. Physical illnesses with no obvious cause will be seen.

With the aspects of the Full Moon in Pisces, Venus retrograde in Leo, the Sun and Mercury in Virgo opposing Uranus in Pisces, it is not a good time to work on newsletters or other forms of communication nor to do anything with the finances of an organization. You will also want to lay low where it concerns group activities. However, if you will wait until the Solar Eclipse on September 11, you will then be able to make some significant headway. For now, just let what you have already planned take place.


Embracing the Eclipse
With Venus retrograde at this time, it is an even better time to recall the past, examine your part in it, forgive yourself and others and release it. Let the past be the past so you can have a present and a future. Instead of picking at the scab repeatedly, relax, allow yourself to heal and watch the transformation begin. While this is what we SHOULD do, it also needs to be said that many will not. There is temptation to be a martyr and sink into self-pity instead of accepting the reality and moving forward. Others may attempt to revive dead things such as broken relationships. Love affairs that have broken recently are just that, BROKEN. They will not fix. Trying to start a new relationship or revive one that has broken down will result in all kinds of trouble and horror in the weeks and months to come.

The Sun is in Virgo so a discriminating tone is in the air and may provoke feelings of distrust and anger. Mercury is also in Virgo, opposite Uranus and turmoil will abound. This is the time to take a philosophical approach to all matters in your life and learn to shrug your shoulders. Do not make any decisions. Listen to all sides and take notes.
