How the Summer Triple Eclipse Will Affect Us

Lunar and solar eclipses can cause a subtle energy shift or a more recognizable, intense surge of feelings.

This summer we are seeing three eclipses. We saw a partial solar eclipse on June 2 in the far north in Russia and next week, on June 15, we'll have a total eclipse of the moon.  Then again on July 1 we will experience another partial solar eclipse just off Antarctica.

Solar (sun) energy is masculine whereas lunar (moon) energy is feminine.  The more aggressive and hostile issues of the financial market, Wall Street, banks, deaths, controversy, political wars will be stronger during a solar eclipse whereas the lunatics, emotional attacks, back stabbing and relationship miscommunication, break ups, resentments and repair will occur more during a lunar eclipse.

As we enter into summer, the energy of eclipses is teaching us to not depend on others, but to turn toward ourselves. Of course, we have known this all of our lives, but in 2011, with the 2012 shift upon us, we are being forced to look within ourselves and trust our spirit now more than ever.

Spiritual forces are stronger and outer influences are confusing, conflicting and somewhat disappointing.

The signs of the universal messengers are speaking loudly this month. Trusting the process and allowing change within our souls and spirit are important as the shift is upon us.

No, we are not dying, ascending to heaven or growing wings. We are becoming more whole, creative and forced to help each other. Let go of material needs and priorities to bring the balance back to earth to help heal the planet and each other. That is the yin/yang pull going on here. The planet is screaming for help, love and soul revival as we are destroying it while technologically advancing faster than ever imagined.

The triple eclipses provide an androgynous opportunity to balance within oneself the masculine and feminine properties of intellect, creativity, love and wisdom. Bring your own concept of God into the equation and watch how by surrendering what you cannot control you can feel freer and release anger, resentment and fear. Replace those with forgiveness, harmony and acceptance.

Find your center. Stop being measured by other people's guidelines. The power here is about you, go within, listen, learn, release, absorb, embrace.  Allow the power of the eclipses to bring you home for summer and heal you.
