On March 03 there will be a Lunar Eclipse at 12 degrees of Virgo. Eclipses occur in pairs twice a year, with each eclipse being two weeks apart of the other. For example, on February 17 we had a Solar Eclipse in Aquarius, and now we will have a Lunar Eclipse as part of that pair. The next pair of eclipses will be in August and September later this year. Lunar Eclipses occur when the shadow of the Earth falls over the Moon, giving it a red appearance, which is why it is sometimes also called a "blood moon". Although eclipses are only visible over certain places on Earth at any given time, the eclipse can still affects us, especially if it touches points in our birth chart.

Eclipses are times when shifts and changes happen, a time of big beginnings and endings. The changes don't always happen right on the date but can be within two weeks of either eclipse. Lunar eclipses tend to reveal hidden information. Secrets and things done in the shadows are now exposed. This particular Lunar Eclipse is in Virgo, a sign that has to do with health care, employment, food and young women. There could be scandals around health issues, working conditions or food production. We also may hear more information from the Epstein files or other similar abuses. We also just had a Mercury retrograde start in Virgo's opposite sign, Pisces. Mercury retrogrades can also bring secrets light which will add to this energy of exposing hidden matters.
This eclipse has some very helpful aspects as it is trine Uranus in Taurus and sextile Jupiter in Cancer. Jupiter is about expansion and luck and in Cancer it is about protecting and nurturing what is important to us. This shows that whatever information is being revealed will help us to expand protections for the vulnerable and for what we want to protect and nurture. Uranus is the planet of chaos and sudden change. The trine with the Lunar Eclipse points to there being shocking news or events that shake things up. However this will ultimately be helpful. It encourages us that whatever upsets and changes are going on now will lead to beneficial changes and that it is important that the truth comes out.
The Sabian Symbol for this Lunar Eclipse is "A Strong Hand Supplanting Political Hysteria". This shows that there may be chaos and confusion surrounding events during this eclipse. It is important that we keep a clear head and rise above fear and misinformation. This is a time when we must set the example and lead the way. It also says that there may be leaders with a vision who will emerge to help us. We must be careful and not fall for those who would look to seize power during a time of chaos for their own gain, but look to those with values and morals that are in the highest interest of all.
