eclipses
This topic was created in the Astrology forum by purrrfect on Thursday, February 22, 2007 and has 26 replies.
We have a total lunar eclipse coming up on March 3rd in the sign of Virgo. At 15 degrees Virgo. For those who are interested find out where the 15 degree Virgo mark is in your chart to see which house this affects for you.
I've read that whatever house the lunar eclipse is in, the influence usually lasts for about 5 months after the actual event. There are so many different opinions about how eclipses affect us. Some say things end. Some say emotions surface that were previously ignored on the issue. These emotions can be drastic to the point of being life changing.
I am just reading up on them now so I can only quote what I've read.
I have noticed in the past that there are changes during these times, but not always as negative articles some make them sound.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Yours is in the 11th house, am I right?
Here's what I pulled up ...
Lunar eclipse in the 11th house ...
5th House?11th House.
If the eclipses occurred in your 5th house/11th house, the focus on the next five months will be on issues of individual expression and group participation.
The 5th house relates to the things that make us feel special and worthy as individuals. It's the house of our creative expression, and includes children, gambling, and love affairs. Eclipses in the 5th house can stir up the creative urge, or represent changes in our relationships with our children or with our casual romantic partners.
The 11th house is the house of friendships; this is the house of group participation and shared creativity. Eclipses in the 11th house can often indicate changes in our relationships with our peers and our friends.
I agree about emotional issues. Here is another good read I found off the internet:
If an eclipse falls within a degree or two of important points in your natal chart, you may feel some effects. The exact nature and duration of the effects will have to do with the strength or weakness of the natal points that the eclipse activates. Therefore, if your horoscope shows that you will win a lot of money in the national lottery, an eclipse triggering some sensitive point in your chart may well set that event in motion. On the other hand, if your horoscope shows a tendency toward violent mental illness, an eclipse may presage a serious attack. As a result, it is impossible to tell the exact effect of an eclipse on your chart without first having thoroughly analyzed the horoscope.
In the absence of a complete natal workup, one easy way to tell the general nature of a certain point in your horoscope is to examine how your life has been affected in the past when those points were contacted by transit or secondary progression. As an example, if you have noticed that every time your Sun is triggered, you receive some money, then we would assume that an eclipse contacting that same Sun would have a similar and powerful effect.

Well then it sounds like it doesn't get any more emotional for him that that right? He has more lunar activity going on there. Emotional upheavals with friends then maybe? Or just CHANGES in the way he feels about certain friends? I imagine yours is kinda similar since it will be right on top off your sun. Mine is in the 12th where my venus. According to what I read that means loads of alone time. For the next 5 months lol
Mine is in the 12th where my venus *is*
crappy typing lately sorry.
crappy typing lately sorry.
...if u remember my case...u will know what im talking bout...
his ahem 'friend'...the very good friend...happens to be my ex...that scorpio guy....
Yeah, I kinda catch glimpses of what's been going on. Do you sense any changes in this area bubbling up at the moment?
...so u think u will need to spend some...
Time alone? lol Yeah that's what this means anyway. Time to clear out the 12th house gutter. Which is how I see this house. The place where things get a little clogged.

Hi Shaka,
I think it may have more to do with how you are feeling that day. Pay attention to it and also who is affecting you maybe. Or the other way around. I don't think this is necessarily bad it just brings changes. Which can be good sometimes, right?

Check the 15 degree mark on your chart wheel. It sounds like you have Virgo in your 11th and 12th? Is that right? Count the bars on the outter rim from where Virgo begins (they look like ruler bars) Each bar is 5 degrees. When you count 15 degrees you should know which house is affected. I hope that made sense.
If it's in the 12th house this may very well help you do some work on yourself.

so it's in your 11th? Then read for ms. plutos muse
I don't think the libra description would apply. It's still in Virgo until it's officially out is the way I see it. Unless you like the idea of cusps.
Yes Pluto in the first. A very interesting placement. Changes in yourself don't get any more total than this.
Is yours in Libra or Scorpio?

I wish this retro period would END. It so sucks.
I could see how it would be hard on the Virgin people since you are mercury ruled and right now it's in it's fall (pisces). I'm having a communication meltdown with a Virgo right now.

You know, you and ms. muse seem to have similar house placements. I think she has saturn and pluto in the first too.
I'd rather see your chart wheel. Because I am assuming you're talking about how the planets are bundled on your chart, right? I have a meaning for something like that in one of my books I think I can dig up.
...How do you particularly experience the pluto?....
haha! So severely it may not even be appropriate to post lol! I can say though that I am far from the person I used to be about 10 years ago. A complete change took place. And being that it's in Libra it's usually my relationships that do this to me. As far as everyday things .... Yeah I've been accused of being a little too intense. I feel it too. When people first meet me they think I'm mad or they are intimidated or fascinated. Whatever it is I usually provoke strong feelings in someone IMMEDIATELY. Kinda a loner etc...
Having Saturn AND Pluto here has to be harsh. Saturn is like a prison. That's an awful lot of control over your personality. It looks like you have a couple of stells?

archer, it really does depend on the house placement. In a nutshell, he may behave a little too emotionally.
I have virgo rising at 19 degrees too archer 
Is that a proposal to ms. muse? :p
..(only a very small number of them are people I'd call friends)...
Same here. I can count them on one hand. Saturn in the 11th can do this too.
..and that Im someone hard to get to know..
ha! I've gotten this a lot. And I'm a friggon leo.
As far as the sex appeal. I'll leave that to those who see it. Pluto in the first is supposed to have that effect. The 'dark' effect lol
Send your info in email and I'll pull up your wheel myself.

I'll be back in a bit you guys.
Wow! That's a lot of info. I'm definitely coming back to this. Thanks!
lol I still haven't gotten through all of it I have to keep getting up.
BUT I found this part very interesting .....
....On this Full Moon, Uranus is conjunct the Sun in Pisces,....
More surprises, as if the eclipse was not enough. Do you think aspects that happen on days like these last as long as the eclipse effects do? You know, the five month period? It kinda seems as if it would since they coincide.

Even funnier is that it's all going to happen around the same degree. Uranus is at 14 degrees Pisces right now.
Eclipse: March 2007 for virgos::
1st March 2007 - 31st March 2007
What can you say about a month that has two eclipses in it, the first of which is not only a total lunar but conjunct lively Uranus, and the second, a partial solar, which squares Pluto? I'd say it's one of those periods in which matters that have been rumbling underground for some while erupt with the force of a minor volcano! March is a very cleansing month: think de-tox and de-clutter, whether in terms of our homes and our offices or in regard to our opinions and belief systems. The periods around the eclipses (3rd and 19th) are the most dynamic or disruptive, depending on your perspective, and the final ten days with its heavy concentration of Saturn are the most hard work. Could we have an announcement about a forthcoming wedding for Prince William and Kate Middleton? Very possibly. And will events in the Middle East be the cause of even greater consternation? Almost certainly.
The lunar eclipse of the 2nd/3rd is in your sign so the themes of closure and completion are writ large in this month's stars. And with Uranus in the picture the way chapters begin and end could be very sudden and surprising. The relationship axis bears the brunt of all this planetary activity so while some Virgos will be tempted to throw up a safe and secure life style in order to follow a dream - or the person of their dreams - others will be dealing with the effects of other people's actions and decisions, whether they be partners, friends, family or organizations. The period of the 8th -17th contains some golden moments, which may manifest as great opportunities, a celebration or a chance to regroup, reconsider and relaunch.
The solar eclipse of the 19th falls in the zone of relationships and with Pluto in tow the second half of March looks to be a time when all the aforementioned themes of de-cluttering and de-toxing are highly appropriate for you. You may come to understand that a person in your life has a negative effect on you so rather than continue being undermined you need to bring an end to the relationship. It seems that you are being tested and while it is your nature to analyse and act with discretion you may be surprised how good it feels to make a stand, to be uncompromising and unequivocal. March is going to be a seminal month for almost all Virgos: what happens sets in motion a chain of events that will alter the shape of your life or put you back on a path that you have strayed aw

...Also, I read that virgos have Uranus till 2011 in such a way in their sign that there is a possibility that virgoes can suddenly get married and then divorced etc. In short...
Actually that applies more to anyone who has Virgo rising since chances are Uranus is transiting their 7th.
And it's not always about marriage. Any kind of partnership or situations where documents are signed. ANNNND it's doesn't always have to be about on and off relationships. Uranus brings an urge for independence. And maybe even wanting to 'marry' someone who can appreciate independence (or a spiritual connection since in pisces) in a relationship. Or ending one because the urge for freedom was strong and there was no spiritual bond. But that's only if it was going downhill anyway I would imagine .... as with anything.
Uranus just brings the reasons why it would happen IF it did.
That article could scare the crap out of anyone married to a virgin lol Talk about the power of suggestion.

Ya- me too was scared. Never knew Uranus is supposed to be so powerful..

May be every one can post their eclipse experiences?
So far my emotions are under control :-). I just read the eclipse effect may start as early as 5 days prior to the eclipse and with the eclipse on Saturday, that means the effects can start may be today.!
I am observing behaviors of folks around me and also on my life to see what effects actually does the eclipse/astrology has on our lives?
