What the April 8th Solar Eclipse Means for Your Sun Sign

by Elizabeth Joyce


Here’s a glimpse of what’s in store for you after the April 8th eclipse. We are experiencing the “dance of the cosmos” and everything will change for everyone, worldwide. The sunrise and sunset memorizes you – catches your attention in a different, more intense way. We are all moving into the next stage of spirituality. Venus is exalted in Pisces, co-joins Saturn, and will hit your lower chakras. You will feel this very positive energy. Venus is the planet of love and is also responsible for your family life and how you learn and set your values in this lifetime. It’s responsible for your marriage, for your relationships and for how you enjoy this material plane. All this enjoyment and your experiences is deeply connected to the 7 Chakras and the new Spiritual Chakras. The Chakras bring you the internal spiritual energy you experience. If any of the 12 chakras are out of balance or disturbed, that aspect of your life is affected. As planets travel through your astrology chart – they bring energies that affect your life as well. If the 3 lower chakras and not in balance, they create imbalances with the relationships in your life. This energy creates fear, personal darkness, and negativity.

If the Heart Chakra stops receiving Light, you stop receiving love. If it weakens, you stop perceiving love. It closes off and you are unable to express. This fear, this negative energy can close your throat chakra. I am not a Master and certainly don’t know everything – but this new energy coming in from our galaxy – with Venus being exalted – takes us into a new world of existence. The energy arriving at this April 8th full eclipse in Aries - along with Venus and Saturn/Mars in Pisces – and the galactic energies – bring a strong, natural, healing energy. The Soul’s journey to transform completes. Everything is left behind and something new happens. Wealth is brought forth – this could be material wealth or spiritual wealth.

Venus is witnessing an eclipse of destiny right in front of her. The Sun co-joins the North Node in Aries, which is spiritually very powerful. It will affect your Chakras – especially the 9th Chakra at the back of the head between the 2 occipital bones that connect the brain to the spine. This can awaken your kundalini. If you are aligned with these energies – you will feel really good – and your 9th Chakra could begin to open for you. Otherwise there will be a bit of a disconnect. Why? Because these are spiritual forces and are coming in to put you on the path of ascension – into the new reality – the new existence – the new world. It doesn’t matter who you are. This is the opportune time to invest in your meditation practice. Don’t wait for Venus or the eclipse. Is it time to take chances with your money? Absolutely not.

Why - because on the 8th of April, Venus gets to watch her eclipse. On the 10th of April Mars collides with Saturn in Pisces. This puts Venus out on overwhelm. It’s too much for her to handle on the material plane – but on the spiritual plane – it will be the most beautiful, exciting and healing energy ever experienced on planet Earth.

What are the negatives? Substance abuse. Drink and smoking different stuff to reach that altered state. Mercury in Pisces in a natal chart is the sign of alcoholism and drug abuse in your past life. This is where you lose your consciousness – and is very dangerous. You could drop the body and leave the planet.

Why not achieve ascension naturally with music and meditation? This will be a beautiful transit for you. Naturally, you will move into the spiritual plane of the 4th dimension or the 5th dimension. Your mind is steady, you are in Alpha state – creating a constant wave vibration – any affliction in your body or mind can be corrected – healed – just by sheer willpower. Holding yourself in the State of Being is like being in samadhi or nirvana.

If you are in the material plane – traveling to see the eclipse with no awareness or meditation - it can be a negative experience. Mars behind Saturn and the Sun – negative, A debilitated Mercury retrograde and falling back into Pisces – negative. You can overspend your money in places where you don’t want to be. You can be scammed. You might feel that you are on the right road, and find that you are lost, or that something has gone wrong in your life.

The two powerful meditation days are April 8th – the eclipse – and April 10th – these can also be lucky lottery days.

People who are doing their meditation practice or spending eclipse day in quiet meditation – inside/indoors – will gain the maximum benefit from these energies.
