The Solar Eclipse of January 25-26, 2009 in Aquarius

The coming Solar Eclipse will have a huge impact on everyone. All eclipses shut something down, taking away elements of our lives no longer true for us. Aquarius is the sign of collective expression, larger ideals. It is how Leo, the sign of personal love, exteriorizes. So a form of impersonal love will shut down, with the void sure to attract new forms of expressing this energy. The eclipse degree promises new forms emanating from Cosmos, and as it is conjunct Jupiter, we can expect major new openings.

n eclipse lore, where the Eclipse is visible will be where the greatest effects can be expected, lasting the number of years that the eclipse is long in hours. This one is 3 hours 46 minutes, thus making it a player in the events of 2012. Partial phases of this eclipse are visible primarily from southern Africa, Australia, Southeast Asia and Indonesia, so like last year's Solar Eclipse in February, also in Aquarius, this one promises to mainly impact the Southeastern Hemisphere.

This Eclipse is part of a grand lineup of points in Aquarius, including Moon, Sun, Jupiter, Chiron, Neptune, and North Node all in that sign, and so it will profoundly affect the Cancer, Leo, Sagittarius, Aquarius, and Pisces planets and houses in our charts through lessons learned in early and late Aquarius, calling us all to a higher self-expression, a great contribution, and new ways to manage our energies.

Saturn is important since it's the worldly ruler of the Eclipse, with Uranus the Spiritual ruler of the Eclipse. These two are in close forming opposition for the second time in recent months, indicative of the on-going polarization between the old and the new, the established and the innovative. This opposition in all our charts have yielded both realizations and polarizations in the houses in which they fall.
