Solar Eclipse & New Moon in Aires – Ashwini Nakshatra - PowerGame of Freewill V/S Destiny

A very special new moon & second last Solar eclipse @ 5° of Aries in Ashwini Nakshatra on 20th April…

With a Total solar eclipse… Sun, Moon & Earth are perfectly aligned.

The moon covers the Earth where the sunlight does not touch the earth & will create a shadow on earth…

This Solar Eclipse can be visible in the countries of Southeast Asia, the South Pacific Ocean, Australia, the Philippines, New Zealand & Indonesia

It will start at 1 o’clock 34 min on the midnight of 20th April to 6 o’clock & 59 min in the morning…

The maximum eclipse will be at 4.15…

This eclipse is happening in the Aries sign & the Aries-Libra axis will be activated on your chart.

Apart from Rahu … we also have Mercury & Uranus in Aries…

We can expect some visible results of this eclipse…when this eclipsed Moon will conjuncts Mercury & Uranus in Aries. ?

Or more when the Sun will conjunct both around the 1st week of May … close to the Lunar eclipse of 5th May… Pluto

In the 1st couple of days, the Aries sign is surrounded by major benefics…Venus & Jupiter….

But Aries & this eclipse Sun-Moon has a tight aspect of Saturn & Jupiter is in deep gandanta…

But the strongest point in this eclipse… is dignified Venus in Taurus….

Venus is trine to Pluto & we have Uranus, and Mercury in Bharani- Venus’s Nakshatra…

Be very optimistic about Venus & getting out of any chaos… if we use the balanced and diplomatic approach to Venus…

Stay in good books with everyone…

Expect the push & a pulling impact with everything….

Mercury will be retrograde on the 21st & 22nd Jupiter will be in Aries….

See the back-to-back transit …

& not ordinary ones….It is impacting the ascendent, 1st sign of natural zodiac ?Aires…& Fire element our dharma trine, triggering our moral responsibilities….

Aries is all about you as a person, your personality, especially your head part…

& Libra is all about your social life, your status, close relations & partnerships.

So, this eclipse is going to impact your personality on a public platform…. how people see you…your image in society.

It signals …your duties towards self and others…

The New Moon & Solar Eclipse in Aries can carry an opportunity… for a new beginning…

This opportunity can further feed our obsession, & desires… as the new moon involves Rahu…

& Rahu connects us with the materialistic side of life... & our future…

The new moon & eclipse can certainly open new gateways… But some doors can be permanently shut for us…

The solar eclipse is likely to shake our foundations…to bring that… much-needed change…

This is why eclipses are feared…. Eclipse can create upheaval in our life with those new opportunities…

We need to close some old chapters that no longer serve us, so we can make space for the new…

There is no way that we can say… for sure… whether this new chapter will be easy or challenging.

Eclipse simply brings the promise of change to come.

Certainly, it’s a forced change…. gets us out of our comfort zone…. shakes our ground to awaken us…

But it’s the long pending one…. Some of the most important events in our life… happen when we have an eclipse.

At least something new starts at some level…mentally, emotionally, or actually in physical form…

It can be tough if we are not aware of the impact … nearly everyone will be going through the same…

Eclipse is one type of transit-only … which happens every 6 months…& this total solar eclipse repeats every 18 years...

In astronomy, this repetition of eclipses, every 18 years… is governed by the?Saros (Say-Rows) cycle.

This hybrid (highbred) solar eclipse is rare & is the 52nd eclipse in the Solar Eclipse series…of Saros 129.

If we observe the surrounding eclipses of this Saros series then they happen with a progression of 10°...

So, the next eclipse will be in 2041 – Bharani Nakshatra @ 16° of Aries

& The previous was in 2005 before.. 18 years but @ 25° of Pisces…

If you can recollect your previous time then…there must have been some important event within a couple of months plus or minus…

We can expect the same theme or the follow-up of the same event, with its progression… during this eclipse…

This time we are close to the gandant degree but… by the October eclipse...Rahu will be exactly at gandant point….

This indicates the most transformative time for that event…where Rahu will cross Aries & enters Pisces…

Everyone can experience some shift with an ending & a fresh beginning …

These events just happen … without our wish or control…we just have to best respond to them…

Astrology helps us to be aware and react appropriately…

Make sure there is complete acceptance & you are doing your best to take things forward in a progressive way…

For a deeper understanding, check the eclipse degree and sign placement in your chart…

If any planet or a cusp is close to 5° in your chart...then that is the area of focus … & guarantees some event…

Secondly, the eclipse is in Ashwini Nakshatra…where Rahu, Sun & Moon are all in Ashwini …Ketu’s nakshatra & Ketu has nakshatra exchange with Rahu...

Both can signify each other’s quality…& their result-giving capacity increases with nakshatra exchange…

When they connect with each other somehow... then the past is connecting the future to bring an end…& complete certain chapters of our life…

Ashwini nakshatra is a star of initiation & whatever we start with this nakshatra, completes in a speedy way…

Ashwini is a healing star and is Dev gan nakshatra…Sun is exalted here…

The deity is Ashwini Kumaras, known to be a doctor… healer…& provides cures.

They give solutions…. to our problems.

Ashwini can give good health, clears confusion & can solve any puzzle…

If you think deeply like Ketu, look inward, paying attention to your intuition…then you will certainly find your answers…

Ashwini is capable to heal naturally…

Where ever we are stuck in our life… Ketu has the power to release & give freedom from any block…. mental, physical, or emotional….

Presently Ketu is in Libra, the 7th sign from Aries…

It can bring a sudden change in our social life, and relations & can change our world permanently…

It can cut off the attachments that are not helping us grow…

Most importantly, it cut short our fears to lose things…

The purpose of this 1–7 axis of the natural zodiac is to bring balance to both the significance of Aries & Libra…

With the eclipse, there can be confusion or misunderstanding in relations which can come out in open…

It’s best to harmonize our needs.. with the need of our partner or whatever is in front of us.

This solar eclipse will help us to achieve balance in our relations…

Aries-Libra both are movable & odd signs…. Conflict in relation is obvious… & you may have to struggle.

There can be challenges but the movable nature of signs can give the flexibility to go through them in a speedy way…

Eclipses put us where we need to be…. We do not have control... & it can be tough or challenging to handle…

But it can be a blessing in disguise… There is some higher plan or purpose for those events to happen…

Observe your past year or so and what was your focus...where you were working hard or was trying hard to achieve something….

What was happening in your life 18 years ago…the same theme is likely to be repeated now with this eclipse… in an upgraded manner…

It becomes more prominent when this eclipse is making a connection with the natal planets or touches a house cusp…

These are some most common significations of each planet which can help you figure out what can you expect when this eclipse point touches your natal planet….

Planets are doers… the raw energy & represents what energy needs to be expressed.

They answer our ‘what’ question… what will happen or the influence can be determined by the nature of planets….

So, check if your natal planets are making any connection then it can be eventful for the signification & lordship of that planet….

For example…if this eclipse connects with your natal Sun, then matters related to authorities, your father, your health & your confidence will be impacted….

Again...do not categorize it as, good or bad…. just respond properly…

This solar eclipse can show you some hidden paths and can bring new things to your attention…

There can be some revelation… as Rahu is known for showing, exposing things…which were hidden…

You can best use that to your advantage…

Even if you find out something, that is not very pleasant, it is good that now the truth is in front of you.

You just have to figure out what should be your next step with this changing situation….

If you come across new information or have some fresh ideas then find ways to integrate it in the best possible way.

The eclipse is happening in the fire sign of Aries so the other fire signs Leo, and Sagittarius…will be equally impacted along with Libra the most.

Even their signification like business, partnerships, relations, marriage… creativity, confidence, expression, and anything related to travel, finance, and family may have an impact.

There can be some shake-ups for you in your health or image…In short, expect a change in the present scenario… in these significations.

Being trine to eclipse, you can hope for benefic changes.

The other movable signs which are square to Aries like Cancer, Libra & Capricorn may have some power struggles to get things done.

Pluto – the biggest modifier is in Capricorn...

It can challenge you in the area of your strength…or create obstacles…

Other signs like Taurus, Gemini, and Aquarius may gain in their possessions, improve their communication & widen their network...

Pisces, Virgo & Scorpio may experience the most challenging change or impact of this eclipse being 6,8,12 to this eclipse.

But being aware is like half work done….be cautious and alert in your approach and you will be able to pass this well.

Mostly with Solar eclipse, there is fear, a threat on our existence represented by the Aires sign…& people or relations connected to Aires…

So, this eclipse threatens the power, status, and even authority of elders, father figures, & bosses…They can either gain greatly or lose abruptly….

Positive or negative will depend on the placement of the Aries sign, also the functional nature of Mars & Venus in your chart…along with their placement…

Also, this eclipse is happening with Rahu who is obsessed with power and greed.

In Aries it increases the desire to control & also wishes for independence… so do control your senses…

& We are not done here with the Aries sign…There can be an ongoing struggle for the next 6 months as there is one more last eclipse in Aires, around the end of April…

That’s where Rahu will cross Aries gandanta and enter Pisces to give you a fresh beginning….

Also, now slowly the planets will get retrograde….

This can have our focus on any loose ends or some rework on anything that is missed earlier….

Let us see, the probable impact of this eclipse on each ascendent …what you have to focus on…& make the necessary modifications….

Check the sign Aries in your chart along with your work for the past year or so.

& yes, if you can remember your previous eclipse experience of 2005 or 1987…You may experience some progression of those previous events…

With the eclipse, there are always life-changing events & nothing ordinary…

However, it looks like a small or casual event but it has deep roots & impacts our souls….

But for everyone, this eclipse can bring change in their social image, their brand, personality, and the way others perceive them….
