I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name was greif.

The solar eclipse is on April 8th 2:20pm at 19 degrees of Aries.

This eclipse will be in a exact conjunction with Chiron, the asteroid of emotional and spiritual wounds. At the time of the eclipse, Venus will be making a supportive sextile to Pluto, and Saturn and Mars will be approaching their annual conjunction.

This eclipse will be the most impactful for cardinal signs and placements on and around 19 degrees of Aries, (give it a 5 degree orb so 14-24 degrees).

I will be doing this interpretation using whole sign houses, this means that the expression of Aries will be somewhere in your chart based on your ascendant sign. For example if you are a Capricorn rising this eclipse will be happening in your 4th house.

The sign of Aries is all about who you are as an individual, What you feel, how you feel it, and how you act. Aries values inspired action, that feels good in your body. The goal of the eclipse in Aries is to help you define who you are and what you stand for. Even if it means you have to fight for it. But becareful of acting impulsively on your actions. This Eclipse wants you to honor all of your emotions without being controlled by them.

Along for this eclipse activation is Chrion and Mercury.

We have been working with Mercury retrograde since April 1st. This is an opportunity to slow down, feel our feelings, and decide with a level head how we want to move forward. (if not we end up needing to review, reflect, and redo) with this particular retorgrade with mars conjunct neptune in Pisces, you might feel the urge to move forward for the sake of movement without a plan or goal. Try to avoid that.

If you have mercury direct in your natal/birth chart, be mindful of your energy. Are you quick to anger? take a step back and give yourself time to cool off. Do you feel like you need to get to a destination quickly? Is there really a need for immediacy, or is this some sort of manufactured urgency that doesn’t actually get you anywhere?

Mercury retrograde gives you the space to slow down and listen to the fire inside you. Now is the time to get in touch with what feels right and find a way to integrate it into your life.

For those of you with Mercury retrograde in your natal/birth chart. What has been causing energetic congestion in your life? What actions are you taking to clear the crap.

Mercury retorgrade gives you the green light to move forward to our destination. Don’t look back.

With Chiron there is a need to release guilt and shame that is associated with the way that you express youself. If your intentions are honest non-malicious you are supported in your acctions. If youre interested in reading more, check out my chiron in Aries article.
