Cancer Solar Eclipse - July 1, 2011

This Solar Eclipse chart is brimming full of activity. As an original saros eclipse, this chart will weigh heavily on future eclipses of this series. The Sun and Moon Cancer conjunction is in a Cardinal Grand Square with Saturn (Libra), Uranus (Aries), and Pluto retrograde (Capricorn). Another term for the grand square is the grand cross. We will definitely feel the emotional weight of this chart. We will be grappling with the obstacles that seem to force us to think about our situations, environments and family matters. Staying at home may not feel so "comfy" during this New Moon.

The other strong aspect in this Solar Eclipse Chart is the Half-Hexagon, also known as a Cradle.  We are likely to feel as though we are being sucked into a vortex of conflicting messages. The Cradle's positive aspects can help to soften some of the harsh impacts of the squares, but definitely won't be strong enough to eliminate destructive behaviors or maladaptive traits that could arise.  To read more about this Solar Eclipse, visit our website at http://www.lunarliving.org/ 

It's our tenth anniversary online. Come by and celebrate with us. 

Watch Eclipse Live from North America - June 15 2011

Update: The live showing of the lunar eclipse over the span of about 3 hours on slooh.com was GREAT!  The best camera angle was out of Cyprus.  At times the camera from Dubai was clear, but gradually become blurry and almost foggy. I hope everyone got the chance to watch it.  If not, I think you can find a copy of it through youtube via the google recording. Here is one link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hw_gG3pNd14  - Yes it really is approximately 4 hours long. Some key "times" that you can zone in to on the bar is 0:30 *beginning to show the shadow; 1:05 dark shadow; 1:20-1:22 red hue begins; 1:52-2:17 total; and 3:17 changing back from the red hue to white. This view on the recording was from Dubai. Another way to scan through the recording is by pressing the keys 1 through 9 to quickly flip through the eclipse, for example, once it starts playing, press the number "5" to see the total eclipse section.
Previously: Check this out :)  The Lunar Eclipse is being presented LIVE at slooh ( http://eclipse.slooh.com/ )  and also on Google.com [as in "Right Now!"]

Sagittarius Lunar Eclipse - June 15, 2011

Happy almost Solstice! But, before that is the Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius, which should sprinkle a variety of changes into our lives. Almost like that rice cereal that talks to us, so will this Lunar Eclipse, with a "snap, crackle and pop." This eclipse will be viewable from a large sector of the Eastern Hemisphere, but also from some areas of South America.

With each eclipse, we grow. To tell you all the truth, I am stunned that Lunar Living is still going strong after almost 10 years of weaving in and out of online lunar life! As I look back, I'm actually amazed. I hope that it has been as much fun for you (my inspiring friends) as it has been for me. I hope you enjoy the current article at http://www.lunarliving.org/

Note! The summer solstice image in the announcement today comes from a great collection of prints by Glennie Kindred.  Please pay her site a visit for the all the wonderful prints and features she has to offer.
