The Solar Eclipse on September 1st 2016, will occur at 9 degrees and 21 minutes in Virgo sign. This is a type of Solar eclipse A, which means an annual “total”, but the Moon is to far from the Earth for the apex of its shadow to reach the Earth’s surface. Therefore, the Moon will not entirely hide the Sun so a narrow ring of light will surround the dark new Moon.
In other words, a Solar Eclipse occurs when the Moon stands between the Sun and Earth, cutting off the light of the Sun. Therefore, any eclipse is a significant event in the Heavens. Like any New Moon, a Solar Eclipse represents the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new cycle. The strongest and most important aspect in all of astrology is the Sun conjunct Moon.
Generalities About Eclipses:
Eclipses repeat in nearly the exact degree and sign every nineteen years.
With some exceptions, during one year we have 4 Eclipses, which will fall in the same degree, sign, and precise day as those that came nineteen years earlier.
Then, you should know that eclipses always arrive in pairs, coinciding with New Moon and Full Moon, respectively as Solar Eclipse and Lunar Eclipse. Also, they will occur on the same axis, respectively in opposite signs. For instance: the next Solar Eclipse on September 1st 2016 will be in Virgo sign, and on September 16 2016 will be the Lunar Eclipse in Pisces Sign (the opposite signs, but same axis).
Eclipse is a brilliant illuminator, revealing the truth about a condition that you never knew existed. Symbolically, it will bring up some truth, it will highlight some subject, and it will emphasize a specific zone of your life. Practically the Universe will open new perspective to see things; it will determine us to move forward, to evolve, to take a progressive step in order to develop our future in a positive way.
Actually, any Eclipse often brings a major change in our life, which may came suddenly, bringing something new to us, that may change our perception regarding to a specific aria. As result, it may mark a major turning point. Despite this, symbolically, Eclipses can help us to do things that we never thought you could do it. In other worlds, Solar Eclipses tend to create new beginnings and bring new opportunities, highlighting new possibilities you may never think about.
However, even if the Solar Eclipse is known as being powerful, it may symbolically affect just those who have natal planets in very close degree to the degree where the Eclipse will fall (I personally use just 2˚.5’’). Where does that fall in your chart? What type of news might you expect?
For this reason it will be crucial to know your natal chart, the position of your natal planets, or at least the Ascendant. (If you don’t know your natal chart you can search online for free natal chart, or you can sent me an email, and I will generate a natal chart for you).
Again, an Eclipse emphasizes a specific zone of our life, and for this reason we need to pay a lot of attention to that area of life. During the Eclipse, you will understand where you may need to change something. You will have a full picture of the situation and you will comprehend what means to you, and ultimately, you will know what to do next.
This change may come based of the truth that has been revealed to you during the Eclipse. No matter how the information comes to you, it can set off a chain of events that will force you to see things in a new light. Eclipse wants you to have a new experience.
Also, during the Eclipse you may feel that the life moves fast and you may like to act promptly, to accelerate things. Then, you may not feel the need keep things inside, even though you planned to do so. You may have temptation to reveal a secret relating to that subject, or that area of life.
Nevertheless, you may want to pay special attention to the sign of the eclipse and in what houses and degree it falls. This Eclipse will fall in Virgo sign. Symbolically affecting people born with personal planets and points at approximately 4 to 14 degrees of the Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces) most significantly. However, this Total Solar Eclipse wants us to become more realistic with the decisions we will take, more practical, more flexible, eventually to look for a constructive role in the material world.
