On June 21st, almost coinciding with the beginning of the Northern summer, we have an annular solar eclipse, it is an eclipse of great intensity at the astrological level despite total solar eclipses being the most striking.
An annular eclipse (of a ring or halo) occurs because the Moon is far from the earth; when it is close, the eclipse is total. The magnitude of the eclipse is measured by the power of the sun's occultation, although the symbolism of this eclipse is much more interesting as I will explain below.
This eclipse is an addition more in a special year of astrological and astronomical events, most of them indicate a breakdown of structures and creation of new ones. This eclipse, on the other hand, indicates something different; it occurs at the beginning of the solstice (Sun standing still), a moment of considerable power and influence, a sacred time for cultures as different as the indigenous American peoples (where it is the beginning of winter), Asian or European ones, a moment when the Sun stops and absorbs new power.
The total eclipse has always been considered nefarious for power, for kings or rulers. It is known that kings had astrologers dedicated to knowing when they would occur. The most probable cause is that the greatest power (the Sun) hidden by the Moon is a psychological assault against the king, and the way to destigmatize the phenomenon was to have the power to foresee it, a great power in the eyes of the people, "if they can control it, they can defeat it."
The annular eclipse, on the other hand, has different connotations. The ring and the ring finger represent commitment, a commitment that was tied to the middle finger because it was supposed to be connected to the heart and its feelings.
We have an eclipse that will mark the birth of children or events that will commit many people. Specifically, the birth will occur between India and Pakistan, but its influence will be marked throughout the area indicated by the graphic you will see attached to this post. In particular, it is striking that it touches part of China or Taiwan, although India will be the most affected. It is not a malevolent eclipse; rather, it is a sign of grouping, of union.
On a personal level, an eclipse shows a very personal influence because it depends on the aspect it makes over personal planets. If this eclipse makes a conjunction with the ascendant or the midheaven of a personal horoscope, this person will have public contact during the next 6 months that will depend on the rest of the horoscope.
If it occurs in conjunction with a personal planet or the Moon, the effect is evident, exacerbating the characteristics of the planet. If you want to know how it affects your personal horoscope, you can request a personal study here.
In summary, we have a very relevant eclipse because it will involve large masses of people, also because it is framed in an impressive period of transformation. However, this specific eclipse seems to bring forth a new power over the social masses, and possibly the birth of people and entities of great influence and social power.
