How is eclipse season determined and what happens to us during this period?
Eclipses are an astronomical event when the light from one object is completely or partially blocked from us by another object.
During a Solar Eclipse, the Earth, Moon, and Sun align in a straight line, with the Moon completely or partially obscuring the Sun. This occurs during a new moon, near the Lunar Nodes.
Solar eclipses cannot be seen from all parts of the Earth, only from within the projection of the Moon's shadow.
An annular solar eclipse will occur on October 14, 2023. Residents of Central and South America will be able to witness it from Earth.
When the Moon enters the Earth's shadow and is therefore not illuminated by the sun's rays, a Lunar Eclipse occurs. At this moment, the Earth blocks the Moon from the Sun and prevents sunlight from reaching its satellite.
On October 28, 2023, at the moment of the full moon, when the Moon forms an opposition with the Sun near the Lunar Nodes, a Lunar Eclipse will occur.
The Eclipse Corridor (from October 14 to 28) is the period between the closest solar and lunar eclipses.
Eclipse season helps highlight issues and events whose consequences we may feel over the next six months or for 18.5 years until the next eclipse of this cycle. Recall what events happened to you in 2005 between October 3rd and 17th, and perhaps this will help you embark on a new phase of development.
One of the biggest problems in analyzing eclipses is that even knowing the time and place they will occur, it is very difficult to predict their intensity.
They can reveal a hidden problem, but how it plays out (tense or favorable) depends on your natal chart: analysis of the house and planetary aspects interacting with the new moon.
🌍 Eclipses indicate that past compromises are no longer relevant and radical actions are needed to solve current problems.
🌍 The October 28 eclipse marks the end of a two-year period that significantly changed attitudes towards resources, their consumption, ownership, and stability.
🌍 The struggle for power and the balance of forces will intensify during this transitional period, leading to potential radical changes in relationships and governance.
As a rule, solar eclipses have a brighter manifestation on the external event plane, while lunar eclipses have a brighter manifestation on the internal one.
Each eclipse belongs to a specific family – the Saros cycle, which has its own characteristics. These cycles, which have a beginning, middle, and end, were discovered in Babylon. By 747 BC, they could already predict the time of eclipses, and in the 10th century AD, the Greek lexicographer Suidas named these series "Saros cycles." Saros series repeat every 18 years (plus 9-11 days).
The autumn eclipses belong to Saros series 7S:
On October 14, a Solar Eclipse will occur at 20:55 (+3 GMT) at 22° Libra near the South Node.
In conjunction with the South Node, the Moon becomes a passive factor, as it is receptive to the Sun's energy, which activates events formed in the past. The Sun in conjunction with the South Node will point to events whose passing will resolve distortions and intractable problems. Any loss during this period may be accompanied by an emotional outburst and an unpredictable reaction.
Acting on an unconscious level, feeling a decline in strength and defenselessness, we tend to manifest ourselves quite aggressively, guided by the principle "Attack is the best form of defense." As a result, we can create many problems that will linger until the next eclipse.
On October 28, a Lunar Eclipse will occur at 6° Taurus, with the Moon near the North Node.
The Moon, being in an eclipse, will highlight themes that will cause distorted emotional reactions in us. During this period, it is very important not to succumb to the temptation of negative emotions, as Mars and Mercury in conjunction in Scorpio will only increase the emotional load and impulsivity.
Mars in opposition to Jupiter contributes to the squandering of other people's money, which increases the risk of adventurous deals and the desire to make quick money.
The transit Lunar axis Aries-Libra actualizes themes of relationships and determining who is right and who is wrong, which can lead to conflicts in partnerships and with colleagues at work.
The main rule of this period: do not get involved in disputes and do not overestimate your partners. Let go and allow the situation to pass through you.

If your birthday falls during an eclipse period, then, as a rule, this year is marked by difficult events in life.
