I posted to you before about my Leo ex. He got back in touch around the Feb 9th eclipse and been in daily contact and seen me every week since. On the solar eclipse, 1 Aug was the LAST time he phoned me. We have had some contact, but on the Lunar eclipse 16th, for the first time he made an excuse not to see me and I havent since just before 1 Aug.

Whatever it was for the past 6 months it is over, right on the nail of the eclipses! His Sun and my Moon are conjunct at 28 Leo.

I wanted to ask you again about the nodes. My North Node is at 24 Aquarius, so the Lunar node hit that directly in the 1st (and my South Node by opposition in the 7th hey).

You said things to do with the Nodes are fated…”Whatever has come to a head feels almost destined. (The Nodes are like knots that tie people together.)” – is that why this eclipse has split us up?

Can I take solace in an eclipse on my North Node as being some kind of blessing, or was it a curse?

Thank you for any Node guidance !

Square my Moon and Pluto, sextile Venus (well, it’s in Aries)? Ah, and Scorpio (the other two)…so I’m screwed. XD

As for houses, my 2nd has 27 Aquarius on the cusp, the 8th 27 Leo. Hrm. But that doesn’t make anything does it? ^^; Don’t think so.

I always enjoy the column.

I will let you know how this eclipse goes for me, as a matter of astrological research.

I have a Leo Ascendant and the total solar eclipse on August 1 struck me right in the face EXACTLY on it. On that day I was given a key to the apartment of Mr. Aquarius and moved in for a temporary stay on Augsut 4. I am still here and life is interesting as Mr. Aqurius spend a lot of energy showing e how many friends he can have dinner with or spend the night with rather than spend time at home, LOL. I, of course, enjoy having the space when he is not here so I can do things like urn up the stero really loud and dance naked in front of the mirror, leisurely wash my hair, paint my nails, etc. Now, this Full Moon Lunar eclipse on August 16 will occur in MY 7th house, less than a degree from his Sun in Aquarius!

He will actually be away in another town that day and I am goign to be out providing leadership for an event I organized.

One interesting note is that 1) Mr. Aquarius has not fully committed to me..we are still only friendly (no sexual relationship) even though I am living with him temporarily and we are both very attracted; 2) since the August 1 eclipse two former men in my life have come out into the light: the guy I last lived with has come around and spent the evening with me talking and stayed the night until the next morning and I was open and told Mr. Aquarius; 3) my former fiance wants to talk to/meet with me and I am considering having him over for dinner on Saturnday night August 16…as Mr. Aquarius already told me yesterday that he thinks he may stay the night in the city where he will be at a one-day conference, and come home sometime on Sunday. Since he will be gone, I want to use that space and time to have dinner with the ex-fiance who has been in contact, and chat for a few hours (no interest there at all on my part). But I am going to be upfront with Mr. Aquarius and tell him that, as I hate even the appearance of secrets.

I get vague feelings of jealousy from cool, aloof and detached Mr. Aquarius, but this also seems weird since he does not appear to want to make a commitment to me and call me “girlfriend”. He’s a GREAT guy, though, and fun to do things with and interesting for chats. We are good friends, truly, although I could love him to pieces if he ever committed to me. With my Aquarius-cusped 7th house, being friends with a mate is very important to me and I would not want to lose his friendship. If he never commits I would be sad but I would always remain a friend to him, and hopefully him to me.

I will let you know what the eclipse brings this weekend.

Bf and I got back together in February after a separation last fall and I have been struggling to understand whether to break up or not for the last few months(Uranus transiting my 7th house)…but lately I’ve been feeling closer than ever.

The past 2 nights I’ve been dreaming of my shadow self…having to do with 2nd/8th house issues possession-ownership-money and ultimately, death.

This eclipse is going to be close to my 2nd house Mars in Aqua.

I really don’t know what to think because of all the tension lately…I am keeping an open mind and know no matter what happens, good or bad is necessary for my development as a soul.

I hope this brings about a new way for me to make money, a creative way that is fulfilling!

I will try and stay away from alcohol as well, or at least try not to fall asleep on my back if I am drinking.

LOL.
