There will be an Epic Full Moon & Total Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius, on Friday, July 27th, 2018, exact at 4:20 p.m., eastern time.
The eclipse begins at 1:15 p.m. on Friday, but we have all been feeling it already. The physical phenomenon affects our lives unmistakably, and our souls undeniably. Try not to fight it. Let it in, because we all really have no choice. The eclipse may cause epic events in the universe, our earth, and of course our personal lives. My advice is to ride the wave and enjoy the wonder.
The sensational and mysterious physical process of the eclipse will cause dramatic results on earth, and of course, our physical bodies and minds. Because the alignment of the earth's shadow blocks the moon from receiving the sun's light, and the moon normally acts like a mirror reflecting this light, the gravitational anomaly could cause some unusual (or bizarre) occurrences. These strange happenings, as we have been familiar with all our lives, can be personal, physical, in the natural and metaphysical world. Depending on the planetary placements metaphysically, in this case Mars and Uranus are very strong, the results can be dramatically soul transforming.
The big star of this show is Mars retrograde. This little fireball, so close to the earth, is causing quite a stir with us humans. He (male energy) will have his glorious day on the cosmic stage during this lunar event, meant to last for many weeks. Mars is aggression, ambition, energy, leadership, egotistic, strong, will-power, stubborn, protective, forceful, passionate, and dynamic. These can be very, very positive traits. However, Mars, especially turned inward through a retrograde, can be hostile, violent, uncontrollable, abusive, threatening, explosive, and savage. The physical movement of this incredible ecliptic phenomenon can cause natural occurrences on earth. There can be news of wildfires, explosions, violence (all Mars traits). The touchy lunar eclipse energy in Aquarius can trigger protests, revolutions, uprisings, rebellions. The Moon, Mars, and Sun square to Uranus can cause all these potential events, including electrical, internet, sudden, shocking, astounding, and jaw-dropping natural, physical, and metaphysical happenings. In our personal lives, we may be so stunned by changes or happenings, it can leave us, at best, confused, at worst, in shock. Let us all, through the light of divine love and goodness, pray this potential harsh energy will dissipate. And it can. And it shall....
The drama is very intensified with the retrograde planets. Neptune, Pluto, Saturn, Mars, Mercury are ALL retrograde! Uranus is due to go back on August 7th. That's a lot of going back and re-living the past....talk about the past coming back to haunt you. It is now timely to dig deep into your soul and life's journey, and allow for the transformation to ascend...

.Also, the smaller planets of Mercury and Mars will make known the daily life, mundane, changes that will take place. As I always say, it is best to check your transit charts to know where and how these movements will occur. However...I think we all will know...beyond a shadow of a doubt, where these things are happening in our individual lives.
Spiritually speaking, Mars retrograde is tightly conjunct the moon in Aquarius. There is nowhere to run. There is nowhere to hide. You may face one of many things in your soul...your inner demons...your inner angst...your ultimate challenge...Although the full moon always whispers to let it go, you may feel that this is the impossible quest. Aquarius is a very detached, independent energy, although quite honest, fair, (all depending on the deserving), and very revolutionary. Coupled with Mars retrograde, auspicious energy is ripe for the taking. Although you may feel struggle and/or angst, and the struggle is very real, the positive aspects of this energy can propel you forward in your endeavors with the power of Mars and the vision of Aquarius and Uranus.

The transits that activate at the 100% mark of a moon, whether it's new, full, or ecliptic, indicate the trend of the weeks and/or months to come, regardless of how the transits, degrees, and signs may change (even though, yes, these do impact the energy as it moves and flows, secondarily).
Despite all the serious warnings, I am pleased to give you some fantastic news here! Neptune, Jupiter, and Pluto are making a strong creative, deeply mystical, profoundly spiritual, as well as very intense sensual configuration.Yaaayyy!!! This is for the artists, the musicians, the poets, the entertainers, the healers, the creators! This energy has been hovering in the background, secretly inviting us to be part of the euphoria. With Neptune in Pisces and Jupiter in Scorpio, the eclipse and the full moon, we have access to a portal (or rather many portals) to the spiritual world and other dimensions. Angels are near. Spirit guides are close by. The un-explainable souls of other worlds are here for us. Just relax into it...and be surprised.
The opposition of the Moon and Mars in Aquarius to the Sun in Leo is quite palpable right now. The ego may struggle with the pull between spirituality, compassion, love, and that of angst, self, obsession, aggression. This is all part of the big picture and underscores the movement in the cosmos, trickling down to the human psyche. We don't want to let go of what we don't want to, we don't want to embrace what we're unsure of, we don't want to give up on those well laid plans...do we? Do we??
If you find yourself questioning some things....or rather everything...don't be surprised. The events of the cosmos reminds us we don't live in a linear existence. Just when we think things are the same, or humming along, or comfortable....we get a jolt and an awakening. It's called expansion. Conversely, if we feel trapped, confused, alone, abandoned, have no fear...We are not meant to keep walking a line...without perspective. We need to visit the past (retrogrades) and accept the metamorphoses (eclipses) of the present and future. If you are true to your soul, and honor the souls of others, with honor, dignity, integrity, love, you will embrace these changes and be able to let go of what chains you, and welcome what awaits you.

Finally, for all my girl-friends and boy-friends, here is the forecast for Love, Love, Love!! Well....things can get very steamy indeed in the coming days and weeks. The sultry pull of the Venus and Pluto trine, along with all that lunar action, can make for some very sensual and carnal intimacy. I caution you to be careful. The Pluto and Venus combination can be very lethal, in good ways and not so good ways. Venus is also squaring the Moon, Neptune, and Uranus. If you find yourself in a precarious or unsettling situation, the best advice is to exit the scene. After all, what is best for your soul and ultimately your future, must be carefully guarded and protected.
As with all full moons, and especially lunar eclipses, it is a time to release your fears, your addictions, your obsessions, anything that is harmful to your mind, body, and soul. If you fear releasing these things, then just let it go, don't stress it, take it easy. This is not the time to fret or disturb your equilibrium. Besides, in the weeks and months to come, these things will happen naturally.
-This strong energy will last a good couple of months. Prepare yourself for change....
-Be sure to go out in the moonlight (how could you resist?) and feel the magic of the stars, the moon, the cosmos.
-Place things you want to energize and enlighten under the moonlight for a few days and nights. You can place photographs, jewelry, writings, special little things, crystals, stones, oils, water, whatever you want mystically energized for positive energy.
-The Moon in Aquarius is very socially conscious. Consider doing something for the greater good, however you feel compelled. Helping worthy causes is a good place to start. Be there for the abused, the abandoned, the sick, the elderly, the underdog, and the down-trodden.
-Connect with the spirit world in any way you feel compelled. Angels, earth angels, animal spirits, spirit guides, ancestors and relatives who have crossed over, faeries, nature spirits, are all very real and can be there for us....and us for them.
-Meditation, solitude, seclusion, reflection are very healthy at this potentially turbulent time.
-Prayer and gratitude help to ground us to our daily lives and also to our spiritual lives, providing stability and balance at what could be a shaky couple of weeks.
-Be creative!!! Write, sing, dance, play, create. These are the times for poetry and art, music and play. Tap into what creative energy can enlighten and transform you.
-Walk the earth barefoot, connect with nature, tend to your land.
-Very importantly, care for the animals, especially the helpless. Your pets and critters will feel this eclipse strongly. Do what you can, if you can, for abused, abandoned, sick animals.

Be careful out there.
Keep your eyes and ears open, especially for your loved ones.
Enjoy the spectacular energy.
Give thanks for your blessings.
Be happy.....
