An eclipse is a significant event in the world of astrology. It does happen a few times in a year and then, the potent energy of the eclipse stays for a few months.
It repeats or introduces new themes into our lives during those times. In the past, eclipses were considered a terrible omen. But if we look at it carefully, then you might see that eclipses are actually bringing a lot of changes in your life.
What are Eclipses?
Eclipses can happen either on a Full moon or a New moon. When an eclipse happens during a Full moon, it is called a Lunar eclipse. While it is taking place during a New Moon, it is called a Solar Eclipse. You can feel the power of an eclipse a month before it happens and a month after it ends. Eclipses zero in on some of the major points of our lives. If there are any turning point in our lives, then this is the time when it might enter our lives.
Fate Returns
Eclipses are known to bring fate back into our lives. Our lives have a purpose. We have already decided on a plan before we enter this realm. But this plan is hidden and we need to explore and find it out slowly as we move forward in life. That is what makes life an adventure. But often, we fail to see our purpose and stray away from our path. It is during these times that the eclipses come to our help. It can take us away from the path we have strayed on and drop us back in our intended path. While this route is what was ‘meant to be’, the change is huge and so, it might be a bit scary at first.
We are free too
However, we are not only controlled by fate. We also have free will and this makes us choose which path we want to go in. Thus, it is not necessary for anyone to learn more about their intended purpose, but a deeper understanding of the soul always helps us develop our own decisions. This is why turning within and taking a deep look into our soul can bring us to a deeper realisation as to the impact of our choices in our lives and the destiny that we seek. And that’s how eclipses help us to better align ourselves with our purpose.
We sometimes feel that once we become aware of the purpose of our soul, we can lead a happy and painless life. But nothing can be farther from the truth. The soul is here to learn the different shades of life and pain is a part of it. When we have entered this life, we cannot run away from the various shades that it presents. There will be hardships such as suffering and pain, but along with that, there will be moments of elation. Life is about growing, learning, and experiencing. We may not be aware of the beauty of it now, but the eclipse is there to help us understand the energy present all around us and perceive life as it is. It will bring us back to our soul’s path.
