There is another eclipse in August 2017

There is another eclipse in August
Mercury goes retrograde August 12

The news is all about the Great American Solar Eclipse of 2017, which is a new Moon eclipse on August 21 that can be seen in a swath across the United States. The solar eclipse is at 28̊ Leo 52'.

However, there is a full Moon eclipse on August 7. This full Moon eclipse is at 15̊ Aquarius 25'. This means the Moon will be in Aquarius with the Sun in Leo. Both Aquarius and Leo will feel it, with Taurus and Scorpio being drawn into control issues. The opposition reveals tension and control issues with or about group.  It could be personal control issues between friends. The areas of the body of this full Moon are the heart, blood pressure, and calves of the legs. It seems someone told me that heart-bypass surgery uses the veins or arteries of the calves for the heart.

There are no direct aspects to the eclipse, meaning it would be rather benign. Mars will come to 15̊ Leo August 12, possibly triggering your chart if you have that degree. Mercury goes retrograde in the sign of Virgo on August 12, too, so it could be a crazy day.

You all know a full Moon is crazy. Eclipses are triggers if you already have an aspect or relationship with a transiting planet to your natal chart. Look at your chart to see if you have any planet, your ascendent or midheaven at 14, 15, or 16 degrees. It will be set off by the full Moon eclipse. If you want your personal interpretation, contact Patty, either via email or her phone at 302-378-0579..

The United States ends a dangerous transit between August 9 and September 9 that had its first focus date December 31, 2016. Neither eclipse is at the exact degree of this transit, but the fact that the full Moon is a few days prior, and the solar eclipse in the middle of the transit could trigger the event. This could be a strong opposition to an enemy. I had written previously it could be opposition from a deadly and ancient foreign power. However, it could be the opposite: USA reaction to that power in self defense.

You know how a retrograde Mercury is. Since it is in Virgo, be vigilant with any details, especially financial and for travel. Virgo is the sign of details, with Mercury the patron planet of contracts, agreements and communication. Triple-check everything, expect minor changes and you will be okay. I tell the story of flying on a Mercury retrograde date, and there were changes to the airline, but I arrived an hour early. Since I like adventures, it was fun for me. Mercury goes direct September 5 at the degree of the solar eclipse, which is 28̊ Leo 25', indicating a trigger of that eclipse.

If you would like a short interpretation of either or both eclipses to your chart, please contact me, either via email or my personal phone 302-378-0579. Your interpretation can be over the phone or via email.
