Solar Eclipse & New Moon in Virgo ?– Chitra Nak | Final Resetting & A New Goal

One of the key transits of the year - will be Annular Solar Eclipse & new moon on October, 14, in Virgo sign, Chitra Nakshatra @ 26.54°

A solar eclipse happens on a New Moon Day,?a very special new moon.

Here, the Moon is in-between the Earth & Sun, blocking the Sun rays from reaching us on Earth & creating shadow, turning a day into darkness….

& Sunlight is our lifeline….so when the sunlight is not reaching the earth, it impacts strongly, even for few minutes. With the long duration of the eclipse, the impact can be long-lasting.

It is like you are holding your breath till that long and how you feel…. that’s the impact of solar eclipse…

This solar eclipse is 5 min 17 sec long & the maximum eclipse can be of 7.5 min long. So, this one is on the longer side.

It is also, one of the great eclipses of America and, will be visible in North America, Central & South America, along with the Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic & West of Africa.

Bharat will not see this Eclipse, but everyone will have some impact of it.

It will start UTC time, at 15 hours 3 min in the afternoon of 14th Oct till 20 hours 55 min in the night.

The maximum eclipse will be at 17 hours & 59 min.

As you can see,… the eclipse will start with a Partial one…

But it will progress as an Annular Eclipse at the mid-point when the Moon aligns exactly with the Sun but appears to be slightly smaller than the sun.

This creates a ring of light around the edge of the eclipse & it is 5 min 17 seconds long… which is longer than normal…

Even the impact of this eclipse can be felt for a long time, giving some lasting impact.

Eclipses have a way to bring significant events into our lives, that lead to gradual transformations…

Not necessarily on the same day but over the period of the next 6 months, till the next eclipse…

The impact of an eclipse on our lives can be unavoidable. But still, we have some control over what we choose to do.

Eventually, there will be a new beginning at some level which can change things and shake up the parts of our lives connected to the sign & houses of the eclipse…

So, be prepared for some development where you have been working for since past couple of years, since the entry of Rahu – Ketu in Aries-Libra.

This is the final eclipse of Aries – Libra sign…. & now the eclipses are shifting to Pisces – Virgo signs. The energies are shifting from Fire - Air to Water & Earth…element

It's time for a great reset, as now Rahu will cross Aires gandanta & enter Pisces…which happens once in 18 yrs.

This is a new cycle for Rahu-Ketu through the zodiac.

And this Annular Solar eclipse repeats every 18 years – to be precise – 18 years, 11 days & 8 hours.

In astronomy, this return of eclipses, every 18 years is governed by the Saros cycle.

The eclipse belongs to Saros 134 series and it is number 44 of 71 eclipses in the series.

Interestingly, all eclipses in this series occur when Moon and Sun are with Ketu…

So, using the significance of Ketu & staying on the spiritual path can be helpful to handle the energies of this Eclipse…

Ketu in Libra, at its ending point - is a great opportunity to reset any unhealthy relationship patterns and start from a clear state.

If we check the past series, the previous eclipse was on 3rd Oct 2005 in Virgo, Hasta Nakshatra.

Also check, previous to that & recollect your time, & experiences back then. Any important event that happened…

Expect …some similar type of impact.

Any major shift or change happening during this eclipse can be the extended version of the same event.

Or, something related which must have happened during the previous eclipse around October 2005, anything within a 3-4 months time span...

It can be an important turning point.

When we have an eclipse…., chances are high of major resetting. Solar eclipse impacts at soul level, brings a new beginning with great awareness…

That awareness creates hope & optimism to make tough decisions in life…to bring change.

Certainly, there can be strong pressure on us to make hard choices, there can be a threat to our existence & fear of loss which can make us feel insecure, unsettled, or frustrated…

We can get some clue of the probable impact of this eclipse…when this eclipsed Moon will touch Mars, the nak lord on the next day – 15th Oct.

More so when Sun will, conjuncts Mars in Scorpio on 18th November, then will gradually move ahead of Mars.

& Till that Mars & Sun are moving parallel to each other. The king & the commander in chief of the zodiac are together, making important strategy.

Expect major discussions with authorities, elders & bosses during this time.

The Virgo sign, 6-12 axis of the natural zodiac & Virgo – Pisces signs will be activated.

There is no direct influence on this eclipse, & no benefic aspect.

Rather we have key planets placed in 6-8-12 – Saturn in Aquarius - 6th, Rahu, Jupiter, Uranus in Aries 8th & Venus in 12th in Leo…

Here, Jupiter & Uranus are close to the eclipse degree of 27 which assures the upcoming change.

The strength of this eclipse is dignified dispositor & exalted Mercury close to eclipse point @ 22°.

So, the impact of this eclipse can influence the signification of Mercury like relations, education, business, communication, financial matters, and travel, as well as health-related… any conflicts, or legal battles that we are involved in.

Secondly, the eclipse is in the auspicious - Chitra Nakshatra - a nakshatra of creator…

Chitra is the divine architect of the Universe and governor of “construction” for deities.

So, expect matters related to house construction, reconstruction, or planning any new formation….

We can certainly have some new creation with this eclipse…where Virgo & Libra is placed in our chart.

& Mars, the nakshatra lord of this new Moon is placed 2nd to the eclipse point, in the house of resources & gains.

It is ruled by Vishwakarma, the Cosmic craftsman, architect & is the “star of opportunity & prosperity”

It’s female, soft, movable but rakshasa gana nakshatra… It has high spiritual energy…which can easily defeat enemies.

Chitra falls at the end degrees of Virgo & the starting degrees of Libra which is the exact descendant point of the natural zodiac…

So, it signifies change & adaptability.

Chitra creates a new image…a new brand & gives us a new direction, and path to walk on….

The symbol of Chitra is a precious gem on the serpent’s apex.

The power of Chitra is to gain the fruit of our good karma that comes through justice, truthfulness

We are entitled to have those fruits by the law of karma….

There is extraordinary intelligence, higher education, a strong urge for knowledge, and expertise in politics…

Chitra has great creative power, confidence, leadership, & abundance. Focus just on constructing new things…

& Mars represents our skills & our capacity to act on those talents passionately….

Expect visible results when Ketu touches this point of 26.54° & that is by the end of December, when Stationary Jupiter will touch the Lunar Eclipse point at 11° of Aries...on 27th December

Interestingly, Jupiter is in Ashwini nakshatra – Ketu’s nakshatra.

Expect some development around the end of December. The most happening time will be Jan 2024 as by this time all planets are in direct motion also.

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…

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

If any planet or a cusp is close to 26° in your chart...then that is the area of focus … & guarantees some event…

Let us see for each ascendant which area of your life can transform and have some new start.
