Total Solar Eclipse/New Moon on July 21st at 10:35 PM EDT at 29 degrees 26 minutes Cancer.
The 29th degree is a karmic point, and it can bring out the heroes. People born with their suns or rising signs at the 29th degree of any sign often like to rescue people. This time, not only do we have a powerful eclipse at a karmic degree, it also going to be aspecting Uranus and Pluto. And, we have other planets doing their things at the same time. There is a good chance that relationships will breakup and investments will show major losses around this time. But, there is also a chance that some will "take the bull by the horns," and initiate major changes in their lives. Some of those changes will be absolutely brilliant, but some will be dealing with major losses. It’s not unusual that people who are ill and tired often pass over during eclipses.

The Moon's nodes are where the Sun and Moon orbits intersect, and they're now in Cancer-Capricorn. That means the next eclipses will be on that axis, with a solar eclipse/new Moon in Cancer set for July 21st. It's an intense series that jostles us out of the comfort zone (Cancer), as we adjust to the changing structures around us (Capricorn).

Cuspy Cancer/Leo's are going to be dealing with a lot of drama during this time. Any planets between 27 degrees and 1 degree on the cusps between Libra and Scorpio, and Aries and Taurus are not going to be happy at all. Be careful, there could be accidents. Planets or points between 27 degrees and 1 degree on the cusps between Capricorn and Aquarius, may find that they are doing the rescuing. The points and planets on the cusps between 27 degrees and 1 degree between Scorpio and Sagittarius and Pisces and Aries may actually see some positive changes from this eclipse. The effects of a Solar Eclipse can be seen up to a year.

The Sabian Symbol for Total Solar Eclipse is:
30* Cancer: A daughter of the American Revolution.

Dane Rudhyar describes this as a degree of consolidation and one which honors past tradition and family heritage. The last degree of Cancer carries the notion of one’s genetic or family inheritance. The emphasis of this eclipse is on the dismantling and rebuilding of family structures and patterns. Expect changes to unfold within domestic circumstances and living arrangements, for a powerful generational shift is underway.

Though called a “luminary”, the Moon has no light of her own; she only reflects the light of the Sun. The Moon is locked in her orbit around the Earth so that she always shows the same face to us. The other side of the Moon is hidden from us, but every New Moon the Sun fully illuminates this dark face of the Moon, potentially exposing what is hidden. Instinct and intuition are wide awake.

This solar eclipse is the second Cancerian New Moon in a row. Last month Vesta, wise goddess of the hearth aligned with the Moon and Sun while they opposed Pluto one day after the Cancer solstice. This decisive alignment helped us let go of the past and start fresh.

The Chiron-Jupiter-Neptune conjunction continues to bring opportunities for growth and healing. This is a profound time where issues of long standing can be resolved.

As the Sun moves from Cancer into Leo, and the Nodal axis shifts from Leo to Cancer, Mother Moon and Father Sun help us balance our inner yin and yang. This new marriage of the Sun and Moon is likely to bring people together to make fresh commitments which will stand the test of time.

This eclipse season is opening up new avenues to the future while in another sense we are at the end of a long road which started a generation or more ago.
