Astrological Eclipses

On the evening news, you'll only hear about eclipses when they occur someplace interesting, usually in your own back yard about once every twenty years. In fact, solar and lunar eclipses occur in pairs every six months or so in what we call "Eclipse Seasons". Sometimes you get a bonus: two lunars and a solar, or two solars and a lunar in the space of a single month. Solar eclipses can range in intensity from the moon's just clipping the sun to the dramatic total eclipse. A Lunar eclipse can range from an imperceptible darkening of the lunar disk, to complete disappearance. Unlike solar eclipses, a lunar eclipse is generally visible to half the planet. The importance of eclipses in astrology has long been known, but is still not clearly understood.

Comment: The result of years of patient study & observation. The author started by studying Ptolemy & other ancient texts. The degree of an eclipse is an sensitive point. The eclipse plays out according to the sign it is in, its planetary ruler, and the sign & house of the ruler. Other planets in hard aspect also play a part (remember to check directions & progressions). It's generally agreed that the effects of a solar eclipse last as long in years as the eclipse lasted in hours, but Teal had a problem with lunar eclipses. They seemed to last far longer than the month per hour laid down by the ancients. She concluded that lunars last as long as solars, but that their effects are primarily psychological & social, in contrast to solars, where the effect is outward & political.
What kind of effect depends on various factors. North node eclipses bring a rush of new energies, which is often disruptive. South node eclipses suck energy away, destabilizing existing structures. The effects of eclipses last, on average, three and a half years. If, during this time, Saturn makes a hard aspect to the degree, effects can be felt.
Much more in this fascinating book.
