The truth of this moment is that it demands something brave and new and different from us. This year has pushed beyond limits, planting us firmly in our dissonance and discomfort. Setting the scene for rolling revolution and the kind of real change that takes root, so it may have a chance to bloom in our world.

Eclipses deliver a wild unruly change, blindsiding and reshuffling as devastatingly effective magic. Eclipses ripple and they echo, six months in either direction and nineteen years if you speak the bright lady's language. They demand, over and again, that we hear this ring through our lives and feel its agitation in our bodies. Discomfort is the pain that forces remedial action and sets new motion. Denial only delays its inevitable impact.

Our planetary players have taken their positions as we ratchet to the peak. Venus reborn incandescent in her fresh approach to what really matters. Mercury in Cancer linking our thoughts to our feelings and squaring Chiron in Aries. Pressing on old identity wounds and asking us who we are really are in this moment. Mars agitating and squaring the eclipse itself, as the sun and moon and earth align and the world feels its power.

The Sagg full moon eclipse is a truth bomb, a flare and a transformation by fire. It cannot be unseen nor denied any longer. Reframing finally won't work. This eclipse is the first in a series of seven, their impact designed on a fresh axis of learning and understanding. It lights up the entire landscape so we can all see what's going on and be changed by it.

This is how we eclipse ourselves.
