Solar Eclipse: February 26, 2017


The solar eclipse of 2/26 has some interesting aspects. There is a stellium of Mercury, the eclipsed Sun and Moon, and Neptune, all in conjunction. Then there is a configuration of Mars conjunct Uranus, opposite Jupiter, square Pluto, and trine Saturn. This is a very malefic picture.

The eclipse was not visible in the northern hemisphere, so it acts more like a strong lunation. But, it was visible  across the southern part of South America, and across into Africa where it's effects will be more directly felt. There will probably be an earthquake in Argentina or Chile, as shown by the map of the eclipse path.

A solar eclipse in the 1st decanate of Pisces is unfortunate for the sea-coast. This one was at 8 degrees Pisces. It could point to danger of a tsunami.

The eclipse chart at Washington DC has Mercury, the Moon and Sun, and Neptune all in the 11th house in interception. There is something going on in Congress behind closed doors, in secrecy. This is confirmed by the ruler of the 11th house, Uranus in the 12th house, exactly conjunct Mars ruler of the 12th house in the 12th, opposite Jupiter in the 6th house, and square Pluto in the 9th house. The ruler of the 10th house is also Uranus. This involves the President as well as the Congress. Uranus, ruling both the 11th house and 10th house, is semisquare the eclipse in the 11th house. This denotes considerable friction between the two factions. Attempted reforms are being met with turbulence and danger of violence. An eclipse in the 11th house denotes a possible death in that house. Uranus and Mars in conjunction and afflicted in the 12th house denotes a rise in criminal activity, violent protests, and possibility of terrorism.
