Hi, Everyone,
If you like you're running around with your head spinning, you're probably sensing the busy energy of the upcoming eclipses. There is going to be a Solar Eclipse in Gemini on May 20th and a Lunar Eclipse on June 4th in Sagittarius. This Eclipse Season begins with a Solar Eclipse at 0 degree of Gemini on May 20th, 2012 at 7:47 pm EDT. Venus, which is the planet of love,relationships,and possessions, is also newly retrograde, as of May 14th.
Venus, planet of love and money, will be retrograde through June 27th, 2012. When a planet retrogrades, it makes us turn inwards and assess that area of our lives. With the Solar Eclipse in Gemini and Venus retrograde in the same sign of the eclipse, relationships are going to be under the magnifying glass.
Venus represents what we value, how we find beauty and love. For each of us, this eclipse is like a big strobe light, which sheds light on our partnerships, how we value others,and how we value ourselves. Geminis are going feel this energy intensely;however, this powerful eclipse energy is impacting everyone. Especially the mutable signs, i.e., Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo, and Pisces.
A Solar eclipse occurs when the Moon stands between the Sun and Earth, cutting off the light of the Sun. A Solar eclipse is always a new moon, and they tend to bring in new beginnings in people's lives. It is a great time to plant seeds literally and figuratively, launch new projects, and make new social contacts. Because the Solar Eclipse is in the sign of communicative Gemini, it is a wonderful time to initiate all sorts of communication, writing, phone calls, interviews, study, etc. It is also a great day to do the Law of Abundance, as it is a powerful new moon. I will enclose the instructions at the end.
I caution everyone to use this eclipse energy to evaluate partnerships. If something is toxic about the relationship, the person can be eclipsed from one's life. If there are unresolved issues in relationships, this is the time to face them fully, as the Eclipse energy will shed light on those matters now and reveal information, which up until now may have been hidden.
If you are trying to repair a relationship, do so with loving caution. Emotions will run high, and people could emotionally withdraw. Assess from within what you can do to improve, repair, and transform you relationship with self and others. Venus in retrograde is also a great time for reconnecting with friends, lovers, and clients from the past.
The Lunar Eclipse occurs on June 4th, 2012 at 14 degrees of Sagittarius. Lunar Eclipses are extra powerful full moons, and they can be extremely emotional. Again, if there are unresolved or painful issues, the Lunar Eclipse will help to bring resolution and closure. It can dig up some heavy painful memories, as the full moon energy can dig up the past, especially in tandem with Venus in retrograde. Again, it is important to assess these memories and emotions, in order to bring health and light to current relationships and circumstances.
Relationships are going to be under the radar during this eclipse season. Saturn. the planet that tests us and challenges us, is almost complete in its journey in the sign of Libra, which is the sign of partnerships. There will be many breakups, as well as reconciliations both in the media and in our own lives. Take things slowly and good luck.
"The Law of Abundance:" Take a blank check and print out the date of the Solar Eclipse, May 20th. Print out your name, where it says, "Pay to the order of," and then leave the small numeric box blank. On the next line, print PAID IN FULL, and at the bottom where you normally sign your name, print THE LAW OF ABUNDANCE. This is a way for the universe to bring you abundance and gifts.
