Solar & Lunar Eclipses 2011
Eclipses are lunations occurring near a lunar node. Type is estimated from the Moon's ecliptic latitude.
Understanding eclipses
Eclipses are supercharged lunations near the lunar nodes — cosmic turning points. Solar eclipses (at the New Moon) plant powerful new beginnings; lunar eclipses (at the Full Moon) bring culminations, revelations and endings. Their effects cluster around the eclipse degree and can unfold over the following six months. An eclipse touching a planet or angle in your birth chart marks an especially fated period of change.
