An Eclipse of New Possibilities | By Eric Francis

Eric writes a special issue on the solar eclipse, “Friday’s is an eclipse on the South Node, representing a release from the past, in particular, a past concept of your identity. The nodes are points in space rather than objects, but they have the full power of any planet, whether there is an eclipse in the vicinity or not. In interpretation, they act like portals to other dimensions, typically one’s sense of what one has become and what one is becoming. They relate to how you feel, which can reflect who you are. Inevitably, with the act of letting go we open up to new possibilities.” Click here to read the full article in Daily Astrology and Adventure.

Leo Eclipse: From Self-Concept to Self | By Eric Francis

The Friday edition of Planet Waves Astrology News is now available to subscribers. It contains a special issue on the eclipse, an article on violence against women by Judith Gayle and, of course, the weekly horoscope. Below is the subscriber edition's horoscope for Scorpio:

I am inclined to say, "This may be the most interesting, productive time so far in the history of your career." Except that some of you, perhaps more than usual, will disagree, and in spades. This is because not all changes instigated by an eclipse are necessarily welcome or seem helpful. For you, time will tell. For people who are engrossed in the intrigue, intensity and sweeping changes that seem to have stormed into your professional life, enjoy not just your moment in the limelight but also your threshold to the future. What you are experiencing is not one of those transits that comes and goes; it is what I describe in my sessions as a gateway event. A door is opening; indeed, it is wide open. You have the option to go through, and to concern yourself some other time about the details, the consequences or whether you really feel confident doing all of this.
