Monday has some big astrological treats in store for us! For those of you who aren’t up to date on the celestial bodies, there will be a lunar eclipse on August 7. Unfortunately, the eclipse won’t be visible in North and South America, but just because you might not have the chance to see its visual effects, it doesn’t mean that you will be able to escape its other effects on your life.
What does the lunar eclipse mean for your life? Well, eclipses usually represent the closing or beginning of a cycle. It’s a time for renewal and rebirth. This means letting go. Things that have been brewing in your life might be coming to an end. This could be the start of a new chapter for you.
Now is the time to take a look at your relationships and needs. What do you need right now? Try to tune in to your own needs and refrain from asking others for help. This lunar eclipse will help you find your own answer to your problems, because only you know what’s best for you.
This lunar eclipse is in the sign of Aquarius. Aquarius is the weirdo of the zodiac. Be prepared for some funky change in your life!
Remember that new business scheme you wanted to start with your best friend? Or that art project you’ve been meaning to create for years? What about that novel you never wrote? This lunar eclipse will give you the gumption you’ve been needing to finally buckle down and get to it! Get inspired!
Just remember not to get too caught up in your new endeavors, as you run the risk of neglecting loved ones.
Now is the time to start over! Leave your emotional baggage at the door.
Aries
This eclipse wants you to work as a team player. Remember that it’s not all about you. Be a little less selfish and work with your team and partners towards a common goal. You’re in this together and you need to look out for others too! This is also a good time to work on unresolved relationship issues, whether they be with friends, family or romantic partners.
