Lunar Eclipse in Leo 2019
Lunar Eclipse in Leo 2019 “Strange Animal” Gowan
The Lunar Eclipse in Leo 2019 (January 20th and January 21st for some areas, viewable across North America) is a fiery shift from the previous earthy grounded Solar Eclipse in Capricorn to a perfect storm of hot fire, expressive, explosive, shot down in flames, ushering in energetic movement, change and disruption. Turn turn turn, burn burn burn, on fire, full on desire, out on a wire, not to tire, out of whack, not cutting any slack, risking heart attack, blowing a gasket, blowing a fuse with a plan to refuse, take what you can use, do as you choose, no care to lose
The Lunar Eclipse in Leo (Sun Aquarius oppose Moon Leo) sits on a razors edge square Uranus Aries just before Uranus makes its final ingress into Taurus (March 2019). This Lunar Eclipse in Leo also triggers the last separating Uranus square Pluto transit that is finally moving out of influence with an orb of degrees that still has a window of impact ( outer planet transits have a larger orb of degrees up to 10 degrees). This energy is still stirring up much potential for risky, accident prone, unpredictable complications.
The Lunar Eclipse in Leo is bustling with a mixed bag of the good, the bad, and the ugly with a sprinkled assortment of a few Thor’s Hammers, (otherwise known as God’s fists), a few motivating fire trines and a few tense squares making for energetic expression with potential irritation, splitting hairs ready to roar and get down to work. The energy is there to utilize, see to fruition, makes strides with any major change, major new projects or challenging matters.
The Lunar Eclipse in Leo is pushing toward a grand trine in fire, engaging Venus Jupiter Sagittarius and Mars Aries in very collaborative, creative, sparkling, jazzed up, fun, dramatic plans, adding some needed heat and excitement to the cold, calculated, contracted, controlled, calm Capricorn stellium.
Venus and Jupiter in Sagittarius (gregarious and open, generous and expansive relations) square to Neptune Pisces ( over promising, poor boundaries, uncertainty, overdoing, pushing limits, disorganized, chaos, disorder, intolerant, righteous, poor judgement) wanting growth, expansion seeing the far horizon, bigger picture but getting lost along the way, with blind optimism, clouded by opinions, perceptions and subjective bias.
Mars in Aries makes a hard angle to Saturn Pluto Capricorn, with the overkill of Mars Aries wanting to go gang busters while Saturn draws the line, puts the brakes on igniting temper tantrums, frustrated processes, impatience, aggravation, aggression, anger, requiring patience and tolerance.
