Solar Eclipse
Today will be the first Solar Eclipse of 2005. It will be a rare hybrid eclipse which will be seen partially in the USA and Northern hemisphere with the full eclipse being seen in New Zealand and the South Pacific, for less than a minute in total.
For the Pope, perhaps it is a galactical farewell with a total universal blackout of one minutes silence for his final voyage on to a celestial space? May he continue to shine brightly on this earth that he has so influenced with his peacemaking efforts.
For Charles and Camilla, perhaps a second chance at happiness for them both. Today was to be their official wedding day so who knows what their future will hold, given the new circumstances.
In looking around the astrology pages it seems, that in general, this eclipse signifies new beginnings and negotiations for the future. It seems there are to be major interruptions as far as communications, the media and IT are concerned. Major interruptions in electricity resulting in blackouts. Still others predict that secrecy and deception will be the order of the day. Others are predicting earth tremors with Italy being put on alert for eruptions by Mt. Etna and Vesuvius. Apparently documents should not be signed during this period either.
But it should not be all doom and gloom as Spring is a new beginning too and brings with it all sorts of wonderful connotations. New born spring lambs so cute and cuddly. Daffodils and bluebells, new growth both in the soil as well as in the soul of our understanding. Learning new things which brings with it excitement at the challenge, excitement at the achievement and excitement at self for the accomplishment. Learning negotiation with family friends and in the world at large at the same time learning how to keep that dreaded ego at bay. So many possibilities still exist to look forward to in the future, with the maturing of all these new things.
Therefore it should be a time of looking forward, getting rid of unwanted clutter, and living for the glorious moment we are in.
