The Eclipse is conjunct my natal moon and ascendant.

[skater314159]

My moon is conjunct the ascendant at 1 Virgo 53 in my natal chart.

What do you guys think this means for me in terms of this eclipse?

I don't want to have a biased view, since this obviously affects me... what are your interpretations/input/impressions?

Thanks,

1. I'd like to hear too

I had a solar eclipse conjunct my ascendant a few years ago. I'm wondering whether I'm still feeling its effects.

2. How is it aspected?

And can you make any connection between what's going on now and the last lunar eclipse very near to it at 5 degrees Virgo at the end of last August?

BTW, I love the Sabian Symbol for your Virgo Asc./Moon and the eclipse -

A Large White Cross Dominates The Landscape :
About the cruxifiction of the ego-centered emotional life.

3. You have Pluto in trine and Jupiter in near trine

Both those planets are transitting.

You might want to google "transitting Jupiter" and "natal moon"

Jupiter is the planet of excess and of abundance. Beware of too many desserts! Be open to receiving good fortune.

Pluto has to do with slinky and appealing strangers that cast a spell over you. Or the slinky exotic side of your inner self.

Saturn (transitting Saturn) is sitting on your natal moon. So you feel some restrictions and phobias.

But Jupiter can offset many of those, if you let it.

4. I really think this is a wonderful opportunity for emotional healing, release,

and further self realization.

If you meditate at all I'm sure you would get some amazing revelations about identity issues and perhaps awareness of any masks you may or may be carrying that are aspects of yourself that are no longer appropriate for applicable to your current circumstances, as well as clarification of issues around nourishment, both physical and emotional.

I've posted this in this forum a brazilian times before but you may not have seen it before but it's recommended for lunations and especially and even more so for eclipses. It was the 12th of "19 tricks or Weapons of Massive Creation for Global Amelioration" that I crafted and sent out widely a couple of years ago.

"Take baths. If you have no bathtub available, then bathe around. Aaaand
don't tell me that you have no extra time for baths, as baths take about
15 minutes, showers take 5-10. No one is really that busy or all too
important to not be able to do so.

Edgar Cayce recommended adding 1 part baking soda to 2 parts Epsom Salts
for baths. That stuff is really cheap. and readily available. I add
my fave oil (lavender). You can add yours. Ritual full immersion is
an age old, time & tried tradition for more than just physical
purification. It is especially so for more sensitive sorts. It is great
to do during lunations. That would mean, once every two weeks or so.
It is alleged to release all sorts of accumulated psychic effluvia
from bodies and auric fields . I just know that when I take one, I
invariably feel reborn, and am reminded that I too have a life, instead
of contemplating the troubles of others all the time as is my
ridiculously inherent proclivity.

Addendum from ccpup's grammy: dunk under at least three times."

I wouldn't be at all surprised if some karmic memories would be triggered during this eclipse for you.

Happy Eclipse

5. Skater, I don't think there's any such thing as an objective experience

if everything is connected anyway. That kind of objectivity is part of the illusion we are unveiling now.

Your affinity with Moon energy (which you follow on your website) is strongly represented in your natal chart placement of the Moon/Ascendent.

That very personal natal position permits an even closer experience of the affects of this eclipse. Any new wisdom to add about lunar eclipses in retrospect of your recent experience?
