Lunar corridor. Solar and lunar eclipses

The eclipse corridor is the period between eclipses, as well as the time before and after, which is at least a week. So it is worth considering the period from July 6 to August 18 as a time for the opportunity to become more aware, exploring your inner world.

Solar and lunar eclipses, according to Vedic Astrology, is the simultaneous conjunction of the shadow (demonic) planets Rahu and Ketu with the Sun and Moon.

At such moments, these malefic planets obscure the star bodies and prevent their light (energy) from penetrating the Earth. This means that during solar eclipses we receive not the Light of the Sun - i.e. not the Light of Life, but the radiation of darkness emanating from Rahu. The eclipse reduces or completely nullifies the solar energy (Life-giving Force) for the entire Earth, therefore both people and all creatures of Nature suffer.

In a general sense, eclipses of the Sun and Moon create an unfavorable effect on society, increase tension in it and destructive tendencies. During an eclipse, the consciousness of people and other living beings is darkened, their mind is poorly oriented in events. Often people during eclipses do not behave sensibly, make the wrong decisions, which entail consequences that affect their future life for several years to come.

Therefore, on such days you should be as careful as possible. Both solar and lunar eclipses can adversely affect health, especially for those who already have some kind of problem.

Solar eclipse, to a greater extent, has an impact on men's health, lunar - on women's. Therefore, during the period of eclipses and the negative energy that accompanies them (two weeks before and after the eclipse), it is recommended that you especially carefully monitor your health and be careful in all matters - sensibly think through your actions in solving important issues to the smallest detail.

Doctors even noticed and published information that on the day of the eclipse it is better not to engage in vigorous activity - actions will be inadequate with a high probability of errors (especially in production and transport). They advise to sit out this day at home or spend it in Nature. To avoid discomfort with health, doctors recommend taking a contrast shower on this day.

From the point of view of the Vedic Worldview, eclipses of the Sun and Moon are an unfavorable time, especially for responsible actions and any undertakings. But if a person's actions are connected with the spiritual life of a person, with serving God, then the time of the eclipse is not only possible, but also necessary to use for spiritual practice.

So, we draw the right conclusion: there is no need to be afraid of the time of the eclipse, you just need to behave carefully and correctly.

On the one hand, this is a critical, stressful time. On the other hand, it is a great opportunity to free your soul from everything that is unnecessary, obsolete, that prevents you from going along the path of self-development.

Eclipses push us to look into our inner world, at the wounds and problems inside of us, from which we are constantly running, transferring our attention to work or other activities, that is, redirecting our main attention from our inner world to the outside. Eclipses bring us face to face with ourselves, make us look honestly at reality, expose our true problems. Eclipses are favorable for bringing out blocked and unlived emotions, awareness of one's limitations, work with blocks in the body that can make a difference in our lives for the better.

This time is also favorable for cleansing the space of your home from everything negative and undesirable.

Recommendations provided by the Tradition on the correct behavior of a person during an eclipse.

look at the eclipse itself, leave the house 4 hours before and after the eclipse;

start any important business and take any serious action;

drive a car (but if you really need to, then do it very carefully);

conduct financial transactions;

contact with the crowd;

cook food (directly at the very moment of the eclipse);

After the eclipse, be sure to wash the floor in all your premises.

I wish you to use the eclipse time for the benefit of your spiritual growth.

2018 is full of eclipses. On Friday, July 13, there will be a new moon and a second partial eclipse of the Sun. It will open an eclipse corridor. These phenomena are considered by many to be mystical and dangerous. A total solar eclipse happens very rarely, and in 2018 it will not be possible to observe this fascinating action. There are three partial solar eclipses in 2018: February 15, 2018, July 13, 2018, August 11, 2018.

eclipse corridor- this is the period between eclipses, the dates of which are close to each other. July 13 is a solar eclipse in Cancer, July 27 will be the longest lunar eclipse of the 21st century, and August 11 is a solar eclipse in Leo. Hence the corridor itself from July 13 to August 12.

It should be noted that solar eclipses occur in almost the same number as lunar ones (if we take a long period of time), and are an astronomical phenomenon in which the Moon completely or partially covers the solar disk. This happens when the Sun, Moon and Earth line up in one straight line, which gives the impression that the natural satellite of our planet outshines the Sun. It is noteworthy that the eclipse is not observed in all points of the planet simultaneously and equally. It all depends on the viewing angle, because in reality the Moon is much smaller than the Sun and closes it only due to the fact that the observer is on Earth, a point more distant at that time. Despite the fact that the ancient times of primitive fears are long gone, still some people continue to believe in the oppressive influence of solar and lunar eclipses. The effect on the human body has been proven by science.

The main feature of eclipses is that they are visible from certain points on the planet. In Russia, only the solar eclipse will be visible on August 11, 2018. In addition to residents of the Russian Federation, people who are in Scandinavia, Iceland and Canada will be able to observe the natural phenomenon.

Do not miss the opportunity to watch the eclipse of the Sun in 2018, the next time this phenomenon can be seen only in 2026. All eclipses occur with a certain cyclicity, scientists have long established all their exact dates for many years to come.

A solar eclipse has an impact on a person, regardless of whether you saw it or not.

Some phases of the eclipse can be observed in South Australia, including in Adelaide and Melbourne, as well as in North Antarctica.

The events that occur during this period can have a fateful impact on the next 18.5 years of life. It is advisable during this period to get rid of everything that bothers you.

During this period, there is an increase in conflicts, legal disputes become more frequent. It is not recommended to make life-changing decisions: get married, move to another country or change jobs (except in emergency cases)!

Crime is increasing, the number of deaths is increasing, the risk of cataclysms, car and plane crashes is increasing.

Also, many people experience an exacerbation of chronic diseases.

The partial solar eclipse on July 13, 2018 will be in the sign of Cancer, so all the cardinal signs - Aries, Cancers, Capricorns and Libra will feel its influence, serious changes await them during this period. An eclipse in Cancer accentuates the features of this zodiac sign - emotionality, empathy, caring for others, focusing on family and relatives, as well as the desire for security, including financial security.

On July 13, the Moon will cover the third part of the star. The eclipse will begin at 04:48 (Moscow time) at sunrise in the southwestern Indian Ocean, and end at 07:14 between New Zealand and Antarctica. The Sun and Moon will be in Cancer. An unusual phenomenon can be seen from the territory of Australia (near Melbourne and on the island of Tasmania), as well as Antarctica (near the coast of Adélie Land). But it will not be available to residents of the Northern Hemisphere.

The beginning of the eclipse: July 13 at 01:48 UTC (GMT) or at 04:48 Moscow time (Moscow time);
Maximum phase: July 13 at 00:01 UTC or 06:01 UTC;
End: July 13 at 04:13 UTC or 07:13 Moscow time.

A solar eclipse is essentially a new moon as the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun. However, its impact is much stronger, because the Moon overshadows the Sun, symbolizing the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one, opening up opportunities for the implementation of new plans.

The impact of the eclipse will affect all signs of the Zodiac, but representatives of the cardinal signs will most of all feel: Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn, as well as those who have the Sun, Moon, Ascendant or personal planets located at 1-25 degrees of these signs in the natal chart.

It's a good time to start over, so write down your goals on a piece of paper. The best time for new beginnings is from the solar eclipse on July 13 to the lunar eclipse on July 27, 2018. However, there are two solar eclipses in this series of eclipses, the next one will be on August 11, 2018, which also needs to be taken into account.

The Sun and Moon in Cancer form opposition with Pluto Retrograde in Capricorn, indicating a crisis in a relationship or an event with far-reaching consequences. Deeply buried subconscious fears can rise to the surface, causing anxiety and uncertainty about the future. You may find yourself being manipulated. If there are people in your environment who manipulate you, then now is the time to let them go. If you have too much control over others or situations, try to loosen control.

The eclipse of the Sun in opposition to Pluto stimulates transformation in order to develop yourself, live a better life and experience more satisfaction. Recurring themes will show which habits, beliefs, and addictions to give up in order to increase your spiritual power.

Pluto encourages a direct and proactive approach to problem solving. Unleash your inner warrior and confidently stand up for your rights if you feel slighted in some way. Determination, willpower and fighting spirit will help you overcome adversity, and then a personal crisis will turn into a success story.

There are favorable astrological indicators in the eclipse chart - a large trine in the signs of Water connects the Sun and Moon in Cancer, Jupiter in Scorpio and Neptune in Pisces. Another trine in the signs of the Earth unites Uranus in Taurus, Venus in Virgo and Saturn in Capricorn. These planetary aspects represent a balanced and harmonious combination of planetary energies, containing great potential for positive change. This is a good time for change to transform something in your life that is holding you back from happiness and success. Changes can affect love, finances, creative work, but not only.
The positive aspect of Venus and Saturn gives support to those who are interested in creating and strengthening long-term relationships. A reasonable approach will help to form stable relationships. A new love that began during this period may be with someone older in age, and there are high chances that it will be a long-term union of kindred spirits. If the relationship was strained, there will be chances to change it for the better.
Venus trine Uranus invites you to try something new that can be applied to all areas of life, from hobbies to romance. Love at first sight is quite possible. If you already have a lover, you will discover new facets of relationships.
Trine Saturn Uranus supports Pluto's transformative role. Be calm and patient, plan each step methodically. This aspect is favorable for experiments and creative self-expression. You can find new ways to do old things without turning your life upside down.

The July eclipse in Cancer activates powerful forces, it contains huge potential, but in order to make dreams come true, purposeful efforts are needed.

An eclipse in Cancer accentuates the features of this zodiac sign - emotionality, empathy, caring for others, focusing on family and relatives, as well as the desire for security, including financial security.

Total lunar eclipse July 27, 2018 will last 103 minutes, making it the longest in the 21st century. It is visible in most of Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, South America, Antarctica. In Russia, it can also be observed, including in Moscow. This celestial phenomenon is interesting because Mars is very close to the Moon and can be easily seen with the naked eye.

Lunar eclipses always occur on a full moon, when the Sun and Moon are opposite each other, and the Earth, passing between them, casts a shadow on the Moon, i.e. overshadows her. A total lunar eclipse is also called a "blood moon" because of the reddish color that our night star acquires.

The beginning of the eclipse: July 27 at 19:30 UTC (GMT) or at 22:30 Moscow time (Moscow time);
Maximum phase: July 27 at 20:21 UTC or 23:21 Moscow time;
End: July 27 at 21:13 UTC or July 28 at 00:13 UTC.

The lunar eclipse on July 27, 2018 will affect all the signs of the Zodiac, but most of all the representatives of the fixed signs: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius. If your natal chart has personal planets and important points (Acs, MC, IC) at 0-9 degrees of fixed signs, the following months can be decisive.

The lunar eclipse of July 27, 2018 occurs at 4 degrees Aquarius when the full moon opposes the sun in Leo. Its main themes are personal relationships, creativity, as well as home and family.
The negative aspects of the Moon and Mars with Uranus in Taurus emphasize the instability of the current moment. Many of us have a strong desire to break free from limitations and rebel against the established order of things. There is a tendency to act recklessly, not paying attention to the consequences, which can create big problems.
The influence of the Moon in conjunction with Mars gives rise to complex emotions, and they are not easy to control. As a result, tension in relationships is not ruled out, as well as anxiety caused by fears hidden in the subconscious. Mars is retrograde so think twice before doing anything. It is better to postpone radical changes for another time, since the July lunar eclipse does not support drastic changes, especially in relationships with loved ones. In general, the eclipse is not easy, but it also contains a positive impulse. As a counterbalance to the excesses of Mars and Uranus, there is a semi-sextile with Saturn in Capricorn to soften negative tendencies. Strict and cold Saturn gives patience and wisdom, helps to sensibly assess situations.

Uranic influences excite consciousness, give a feeling of something new that is ready to come into our lives. Awareness of this dynamic energy will lead to creative breakthroughs and revitalization in your personal life. Fateful events and recurring themes will show which of your desires are ready to be realized in reality.

Full Moon and Mars can push for reckless action due to the tense aspect with Uranus, which is also the dispositor of the eclipse. Staying calm is especially important. If you feel irritable, this is a signal that you need to step back and try to relax. Otherwise, you will lose your temper and act irrationally. If you can't calm down, try to fulfill yourself in some kind of vigorous activity, for example, cleaning the house or going for a walk.

It is not recommended to plan anything important (negotiations, important events, trips, etc.), it is better to do ordinary things. It is good to devote time to meditation in order to comprehend the events of the past and determine plans for the future.

A partial solar eclipse will occur on August 11, 2018 at 09:46 UTC or 12:46 Moscow time at 18° Leo. It will be seen in Northern Europe, Northeast Asia, northern North America and Antarctica. On the territory of Russia, including in Moscow, it can also be seen. However, the solar eclipse is partial, and the moon's shadow will cover only a small part of the sun.

The Sun and Moon in conjunction with retrograde Mercury - this indicates that some past circumstances will remind of themselves. The charge of creative energy that the fiery Leo carries will help overcome uncertainty and step forward. However, one should act with discretion, as the square of the Sun and Moon in Leo with Jupiter in Scorpio can be expressed in excessive optimism and indiscretion. It is recommended to be careful, there may be problems with travel or transport.

The 2018 eclipses are part of a long cycle that began in 2016. They will bring important changes that will determine how our lives will unfold in the coming months and years.

Deterioration of well-being will be felt by people with weather dependence. Retrograde Mars in Aquarius contributes to exacerbations of mental illness. Solar eclipse exacerbates chronic diseases. The work of the nervous and circulatory system worsens. The period is extremely traumatic. Be careful while driving. In the week leading up to the eclipse corridor, the number of accidents increased.

Doctors recommend taking a contrast shower at this time, dousing for 20-30 seconds. Cool or cold water, hot - 2-4 minutes. A solar eclipse is the perfect time to get rid of bad habits.

During the week after the solar eclipse, the effect of this phenomenon on health will continue. In order to normalize your well-being, you should not burden the body with heavy food, give preference to water rather than alcoholic beverages, regularly visit the fresh air, and hypertensive patients should not give up their usual medicines.

On the day of a solar eclipse, it is better to do routine work, not to take on new projects. Try to be as concentrated as possible while driving a car and doing any work.

The week after the eclipse, as well as after the new moon, is a time of activity and creativity.

Avoid daytime naps, banking, and adrenaline-fuelled and stressful experiences. Do not start new business, especially spontaneous ones, i.e. if those were not planned in advance. It is not advisable to carry out serious medical procedures: the probability of error is high. Refrain from participating in mass events.

Postpone for a few days important decisions that affect your future: job change, marriage proposal, relocation, major financial transactions. Track your emotions.

The effect of a lunar eclipse on health begins three days before and continues for another three days after the eclipse itself. These days, capriciousness (especially in children), irritability, vulnerability increase, a desire to argue, dissatisfaction with oneself and others is manifested. There is also a high risk of relapse of mental illness and manifestations of emotional instability. An eclipse can negatively affect the well-being of even a practically healthy person; mentally unstable and meteorologically dependent people will especially suffer.

During solar and lunar eclipses (three hours before and after the moment of the eclipse itself), be careful in travel, trips, avoid business and commercial activities, large purchases, as well as large crowds.

On the day of the lunar eclipse, you should get rid of bad habits: smoking, drinking alcohol and drugs, gambling, psychological addictions. This is the perfect time in 2018 when you can effectively reset your negative programs, change scripts.

If you are busy looking for someone or something, then maybe find it during a lunar eclipse. There should be few desires - the most relevant for you, convert it into an intention. Give yourself permission to have what you want in your life. Move towards what you want, enjoy the process, calmly.

Move in one rhythm with the cosmic energies, and not against them.

Anything that "leaves", let go. This is a time of great change.

Often events occur in the eclipse corridor that upset a person. He thinks that he is losing something valuable that he is not ready to part with. Or something is given during this period that he is not ready to accept in his life. But this is only at first glance. In reality, in the corridor of eclipses, everything happens exactly as it is necessary for the person himself for his development and a better and better life. You just need to be able to see it. During the eclipse corridor, it would be appropriate to take care of the body and emotional state. Try not to overload yourself.

In the eclipse corridor, everything intensifies, both positive and negative. Watch your thoughts, keep a low profile, and be considerate of those around you. Do not enter into disputes and heated discussions, do not make global decisions and do not do any important things. All your thoughts and actions during this period will influence your future destiny and have consequences. To get out of the corridor of eclipses into a new space in a new quality, conduct an audit and put all spheres of life in order.

The influence of the eclipse corridor on all signs of the zodiac

Aries during the eclipse corridor, you should be more patient and act constructively. You should not start something new without considering the situation from different angles. For this sign, there is also a high probability of selling / buying property, moving to another place or even a country in the next 2 years.

Taurus the home planet Venus is well aspected in the sign of the Earth, so Taurus will feel solid ground under their feet, and will learn to build material gain on their own suffering. Many of you will receive interesting offers in terms of earnings. There will be an opportunity to postpone or invest profitably finances. You will feel more confident. The eclipse period will pass under the sign of learning. If you have been planning to gain new knowledge or skills for a long time, now is the best time for this. You may change the circle of acquaintances associated with frequent trips.

Gemini from July 13, the financial situation will change, many of them will become financially independent, a new source of income will appear. An increase in income can be associated with a new job, as well as payments or inheritance. It is better not to spend money in the next 3 months, but to invest in your development or save it for a major purchase (when it is better to do this, see the calendar of retrograde planets).

Many Cancers think about moving, starting a business, changing marital status, having a child.

Lviv waiting for a reassessment of values and internal changes. For you, this will be the cycle of the completion of the past. There is also a high probability of a change of residence in the next 1.5 years.

It is worth learning to restrain your impulses and strengthen self-control in order to avoid trouble and improve your financial situation. Also, you are waiting for a change in relationships with friends. Get rid of outdated communication. Listen to yourself.

Scales. The Eclipse opens up new prospects for you in your career, business. You can be promoted, raise your salary. During the eclipse corridor, if you have debts, try to start the process of paying them off, so you will speed up the payment process for the next 12 months, and there will be opportunities for additional earnings. You will find many temptations and difficulties in love affairs. Let go of old patterns of behavior in relationships. Track down your mistakes. Couples that do not pass the test will part during the eclipse.

Scorpion. In the period after the eclipse, you can start a new profitable business, gain new knowledge or find a job abroad. A court case may also get off the ground, the decision on which you have been waiting for a long time. In the next two years, you will travel more.

Sagittarius. The eclipse will primarily affect finances. A high probability of receiving an inheritance or successfully investing money. In the next two years, the probability of having a child is also high. New things and projects can successfully shoot and change your life.

Capricorn at work, the time to take off will begin, perhaps the emergence of new financial partners. 2018 brings many changes in the life of Capricorns. During the eclipse corridor, you will be visited by new creative ideas. Relationships with family, friends and colleagues will come to the fore. The likelihood of conflict situations is high. You will make an important decision - about getting married or divorced, changing a business partner, etc. Make decisions with a cold mind. You should be careful in everything, because you will have to make important life choices. Capricorns will be very successful if they introduce something new into their work, create new ideas, go beyond comfort.

Aquarius it is recommended to pay attention to your organization and learn how to plan your time correctly, as they are waiting for the money period from the end of September. Get ready for it. During eclipses, you want more freedom. You will discover new knowledge. You will reconsider the circle of your communication, be prepared to meet with old acquaintances. Many of you decide to change jobs or activities. This is a good period to get rid of bad habits, go in for sports and start leading a healthy lifestyle. Otherwise, in the summer there will be an exacerbation of diseases.

Fish. You will finally be able to devote yourself to a hobby, which later can become the main source of income. However, there is a risk of being deceived by new partners. Be careful! Pay attention to home, family. Refill your energy while relaxing in nature near the water.

Eclipses of the Sun and Moon from the origins of the development of civilization attract human attention. Scientists, thanks to the observation of them, study the solar corona and prominences, as well as the processes occurring with the natural satellite of the Earth. People on all continents admire the mystical beauty of these phenomena - a bloody crimson moon or a magnificent solar ring. Well, astrologers of various directions since the beginning of time consider eclipses to be unfavorable omens in the life of people and states.

Indeed, in our science, eclipses of the Sun and Moon are the most destructive factors from the entire astrological arsenal. It is believed that they bring not only negative, but also fatal events, though only if their position touches important points in the horoscope of a person or country. I recall an episode from The Tale of Igor's Campaign, the creation of which, according to some serious scholars, was inspired by the reverence of the ancestors for the majestic picture of the eclipse. The fact is that when Igor in May 1185 gathered an army for the battle with the Polovtsy, and the squad was fully armed on the banks of the Donets, the prince and his warriors were witnesses of a solar eclipse. Night fell in the middle of the day, and the Sun became like a crescent moon. Frightened boyars dissuaded Igor from the campaign, but he did not agree with their arguments. The result of the inglorious undertaking is well known: the army was defeated, and the prince was captured.

There are more solar eclipses, but more often we can observe lunar ones. This is because solar eclipses are visible only in a specific region of the Earth, while lunar eclipses affect the entire night hemisphere. Any eclipse occurs when three celestial bodies: the Earth, the Moon and the Sun line up from the point of view of an earthly observer on one conditional straight line. If the Moon is located between the Earth and the Sun, then the eclipse is called solar, but if, on the contrary, the shadow of the Earth closes direct sunlight from the Moon, then this is a lunar eclipse. In other words, a solar eclipse always coincides with a new moon, and a lunar eclipse always coincides with a full moon. New moon and full moon happen every month with a time difference of 14.75 days, but not always during these periods there is an eclipse, it is also necessary that all three celestial bodies line up. If the space line between the three bodies is exact, then this is a total eclipse; if it is curved, then the eclipse is partial.

What is eclipse corridor? This is the period between eclipses, the dates of which are close to each other. July 13 this year there was a solar eclipse in Cancer, July 27 will be the longest lunar eclipse in the 21st century, and 11th August- solar eclipse in Leo. The events that take place during this period can have a decisive impact on the next 18.5 years of the life of the entire planet. It is advisable during this period to get rid of everything that bothers you.

During the eclipse corridor, emotions come to the fore. They overshadow critical and rational thinking and easily defeat a person. Eclipse Corridor always strikes. If it starts with a solar eclipse (as it is now), then the blow falls on health, plans and deeds. We will be plunged into our own past, where unfinished moments remain - relationships, connections, situations, people, illusions. There is a narrow loophole for their closure. The eclipse corridor is a time of acceptance and letting go. If you forgive and release a person now, then be sure: this is for good.

The eclipse corridor will amplify all our actions like an echo. At this time, the essence of long-past events is revealed. There is an opportunity to correct your past mistakes and failures, a chance to take a fresh look at difficult moments in life. But again, this will require a lot of human awareness. During this period, conflicts and legal disputes are possible. It is not recommended at this time to make fateful decisions: to get married, move to another country or change jobs. Crime is increasing, the number of deaths is increasing, the risk of cataclysms, car and plane crashes is increasing. Health problems, exacerbation of chronic diseases are also possible. Headaches, pressure surges, heart pains, exacerbations of chronic diseases are possible. It is better not to build plans and intentions. The corridor is a time to “cleanse” the past and get rid of what is trailing behind you. An effective solution would be to work through some difficult moments with a psychologist, especially if you have been going to see him for a long time. Take care of yourself these days.

July 20 and August 4- tough days. This is a period of unpredictable events, phenomena, processes. Get ready for the most unexpected gifts of fate. The main astrological recommendation is don't start important things And not make big decisions. They can turn out in the most unpredictable way. Don't plan these days and any trips This is a time of confusion, confusion and chaos.

Moon eclipse will take place July 27th. On this day, serious shocks are possible, breaks in relations, financial turmoil are not ruled out. Avoid impulsive actions, they can develop into protracted conflicts. Where possible, compromise. This eclipse is associated with the masculine theme, with the yang active principle. And on this day you need to thank and forgive all the men in your life.

While new moons bring renewal and new beginnings, the eclipse brings many releases and completions. The obsolete leaves, but immediately a new door opens and a new beginning arises. This is a great time to “clean up” in life. We do this through transformational work. A great time to replace the old with the new, fix the broken, find new ways. If you wanted to change something, but did not dare, this eclipse can help you do it.

Be very careful these days in relationships with loved ones. Look at the unfolding dynamics around. Change is already here, so work on how to integrate it into your life. There is a renewal of energy, our task is to dive deep into ourselves and discover those parts in ourselves that need awakening or revitalization.

We need to dive deeper into ourselves and work on what we really want from our lives. And at this depth ask yourself - who am I? Inside you will find the answers. This eclipse can make us feel uncomfortable, inviting us to go within and face our darker soul parts. This is a challenge, but also a shortcut to higher levels of consciousness for awareness and purification. We just need to stay open and let the universe guide us. No need to worry about setting intentions or thinking about the future direction of movement. Just be and allow yourself to receive higher guidance. Allow yourself to surrender to the flow of the universe. Simply raise your hands, palms up, and say, “I am ready. I am open. I want guidance and I want my Higher Destiny to guide me." By opening up to the cosmos and practicing acceptance, self-love, and self-care, you allow this eclipse to open the right doors at the right time and give yourself the chance to move through them correctly and effectively.

11th August the summer eclipse corridor closes. Remind yourself of some past circumstances. Creative energy will boil in you, and it will help you overcome self-doubt and step forward. However, you should act deliberately, problems may arise during travel. Be careful!

What awaits the signs of the zodiac

During the eclipse corridor, four signs of the zodiac are at risk: Cancer, Aquarius, Leo, and Capricorn.

Aquarius waiting for big changes in life. And therein lies the complexity of this period. If you pass this difficult period with dignity, new prospects will open before you.

Lviv expects a large-scale event, a fateful meeting that will change their lives. Something will leave your life forever. During this period, you need to think more and act less, trips will not bring the desired result.

Capricorn it is worth being careful in everything, because you will have to make important life choices. Capricorns will be very successful if they introduce something new into their work, create new ideas, go beyond comfort.

The rest of the signs of the zodiac during this period are waiting for a calmer period.

For scorpions the period of eclipses is a time of changes in family life. Scorpios should be bolder and not be afraid to go beyond the usual. There is a risk of conflicts related to money.

Sagittarius Opportunities for career growth and increased profits will open up. New cases and projects can successfully take off and change your life.

Pisces waiting for financial success and new prospects. However, there is a risk of being deceived by new partners. Be careful!

Now let's talk about the principles of life and behavior of people during periods associated with the action of solar and lunar eclipses.

I have already written about the fact that unfavorable situations during eclipses are associated with the activation of various magnetic fields surrounding the Earth's noosphere (including those unknown to modern science). Hence the increase in the number of suicides and alcohol excesses, as well as a noticeable increase in acute cardiovascular diseases, as well as general mortality from other causes.

And now some specific recommendations. Let's talk about general rules. Firstly, under the eclipses, on their day, and a few days after (a week after the solar and 3 days after the lunar eclipse), you cannot start new business. For example, a contract concluded on the day of an eclipse not only risks failing, but can also bring serious trouble to both parties. Do not buy expensive things, do not start a trip or marry. I do not want to say that you will inevitably fail, it all depends on the specific horoscope, but the risk will be an order of magnitude higher than on ordinary days. Pay attention to new acquaintances that develop during this period. Most likely, they will bring you sensitive negativity. At the very moment of the eclipse, it is good to take a contrast shower and do meditation (thinking) or just lie down for an hour. For those who know how, it is good to pray and ask for a better fate. I will add that during periods of eclipses, you can do all the current and everyday activities, but some precautions still do not hurt. You probably know that these days road injuries and injuries in general are increasing, mental problems are aggravating, the number of ambulance calls is increasing, there is an increase in heart attacks, strokes and alcohol problems. Draw your own conclusions. The point here is not even in astrology, but in the fact that eclipses, when the three most important celestial bodies for us are located on the same straight line, are in themselves a negative geocosmic factor. Magnetic fields are activated, the person experiences increased levels of anxiety and stress, and some areas of the brain may be blocked. You should remember this and insure yourself.

Therefore, the main recommendation for all of us is extremely simple: we need to take care of ourselves and avoid extreme or potentially threatening situations whenever possible. There is a kind of magical practice of working out the negative and reducing fatality. This is meditation, or quiet reflection and planning during the hours of the maximum phase of the eclipse (usually half an hour before and after). In these moments, it is necessary to forgive people for insults, as well as create in your imagination the ideal that you want to achieve. On a lunar eclipse, you should also give up bad habits and throw unnecessary trash out of your home. The ancients said: "During eclipses, the heavenly gates open." If you think about it, this phrase carries a deep meaning, it reminds you that the straight line between heaven and earth is a two-way street.

In 2018 there will be 5 eclipses - 3 solar and 2 lunar. We saw the first pair of eclipses in the winter period, and the remaining three will occur in the summer of 2018.

Solar eclipse July 13, 2018. Exact time: 06 hours 02 minutes Moscow time. It was possible to follow the phenomenon while being on the territory of Tasmania, Australia (southern part), Antarctica (eastern part). In addition to these points on the globe, those who were in the waters of the Indian Ocean (between Australia and Antarctica) could enjoy the beauty of the eclipse.

Lunar eclipse July 27, 2018. At 23:22 Moscow time, a total lunar eclipse will be observed in Africa (southern and eastern parts), the Urals, Russia (southern part), the Middle East, Asia (southern and central parts). At the same time, a penumbral lunar eclipse will be visible from all points of the Earth, except for North America, Kamchatka and Chukotka.

Solar eclipse on August 11, 2018. Another partial solar eclipse can be observed at 12:47 Moscow time. The phenomenon will be noticeable in Northeast China, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, the Far East and Siberia. People located in Russia (central part), Scandinavia, Greenland and Canada (northern part) will also be able to see the phenomenon.

Eclipse corridor, features

In general, the eclipse corridor will be characterized by the fact that it will “reveal reality”: situations will be created around us, as a result of which we will have to get rid of our illusions and look at how the situation (relationships, people or ourselves) looks like in reality. deed. Figuratively speaking, we will have to “go down to earth”, see reality as it is, and not as it was convenient for us to see it before. Many people will feel as if their eyes have been “opened” - past illusions will disappear, it will become clear what is really important and what is not, much will become clear, understanding will appear in old questions that seemed unsolvable before.

This "grounding" will give us the opportunity to see everything around us from a more practical point of view. At this time, it is recommended to review all your plans for the future and check them for realism - and then we can get rid of the superfluous, unnecessary, illusory and understand what is missing for the successful implementation of truly valuable and important tasks. We have the opportunity to really see what is happening in life, where we are, where we are striving and where we can go.

Changes during this eclipse will be very significant, will have a serious impact on the entire subsequent life of a person, moreover, these changes will be irreversible, they cannot be avoided or delayed, since they are long overdue and were just waiting for the moment to come into our lives and give us the opportunity for a better future.

But the eclipse period itself and the process of “implementing” changes (this is about 1 week before the eclipse, the next 2 weeks of the eclipse corridor and a week after it, that is, from about July 6 to August 18) will not be easy, and for many it will take place in a rather tough form.

But as they say, he who is forewarned is forearmed! Therefore, knowing all this, we can spend this time for the benefit of ourselves - get rid of everything unnecessary and move to a new level of spiritual development.

This period requires attentiveness to everything we say and do. The periods of the eclipse corridor have always been special, and the opportunities they provide are unique. This is the time when a person can really change and influence the next period of his life. It is important that at this time not only a person, his Family and his children, but also the World around can change.

An eclipse makes any human thought amplified several hundred times. Merits from practices at this time increase disproportionately to normal time. Therefore, spiritual and tribal practices are very favorable in the corridor of eclipses.

Eclipse Corridor Do's and Don'ts in Jyotish

In Jyotish Vedic astrology, it is believed that the day of the eclipse itself is not the right time to start material affairs. The days before the eclipse (about a week) and after it (another week) are also not suitable for these purposes, but their unfavorability is somewhat less. The closer to the peak of the eclipse, the greater the chance that material issues will not be resolved in the best way.

There is always about two weeks between two neighboring eclipses, so any eclipse corridor (whether short or long) is a bad period for actions related to objects and money, as well as agreements that ultimately should give material results.

But the adverse effect of eclipses extends not only to the time between eclipses, but also to the time before the first eclipse, as well as to the time after the last eclipse.

So it turns out that:

The eclipse corridor can be two weeks long, but its negative impact increases to four weeks (two weeks between eclipses and one week before and after the corridor),
The eclipse corridor can be a month long, but its negative impact increases to one and a half months (a month between eclipses and one week before and after the corridor).

However, there is no need to be afraid of either the eclipses themselves or their corridors! Negative consequences are possible only in material life, and in non-material, on the contrary, eclipses can bring good results.

If you have planned important negotiations that you have been waiting for several months and which should give you some monetary or material benefit, then it is better to spend them outside the eclipse corridor. The same goes for investing money and other activities from which you expect benefits.

But for self-development, education, spiritual practices, eclipse corridors are good. You just need to correctly make your plans for life, and then even the corridors of eclipses will bring pleasant results.

During periods of eclipses, at all times there was a kind of “cleansing” on the planet Earth. Cataclysms, wars, epidemics, unexplained circumstances that claimed the lives of people and much more .... And when eclipses take place in fiery signs, as it will be in August of this year (in the sign of Leo), they automatically affect the cardiovascular and nervous systems of a person. According to astrological forecasts and analysis of past events, fiery eclipses claim the lives of famous people, fires and wars flare up during this period.

This year, the planet Mars, which oversees human activity and the aggressive beginning, is not in the retrograde stage, which is not good for a person. Mars can persistently and actively influence each of us, forcing us to use our energy potential not always in a positive direction. If this potential is not directed in the right direction and not spent, subconscious aggression can grow to a critical level, torn by conflicts with others.

Dangers of the eclipse corridor

A combination of a total solar eclipse and a partial lunar eclipse can bring a lot of trouble:

in the social sphere - negative changes and failures of new projects;
natural disasters are possible, which may lead to political adjustments;
there is a danger of total economic chaos on the planet, associated with a change in the general management model;
it is possible to test the astral-karmic cleansing of people's life programs, and the cleaning and liberation from them, most likely, will take place far from being in comfortable conditions for a person, but with pain and losses;
there is a risk of taking rash steps and making rash decisions, which can lead to serious consequences in the future;
one should also be wary of overexcitation of the nervous system and various kinds of physical ailments. This is a period of a general energy decline, you will feel a weakening of vitality and a deterioration in well-being. Therefore, during this period (in the corridor of eclipses), physical overload should be excluded, and also - it is recommended to postpone the adoption of serious decisions on ultra-important issues to a more favorable time;
Astrologers call the period from August 10 to 13 especially dangerous in the eclipse corridor. These days you will be subjected to increased nervousness, restlessness, irritability and aggressiveness. Therefore, it is best to postpone all the affairs scheduled for these days to another time, and when communicating with others, be extremely restrained and patient. Otherwise, your unstable mental state can cause unwanted conflicts.

Keep common sense in the corridor of eclipses, do not make particularly important decisions and smooth out conflicts as much as possible. Only in this case you will be able to more or less easily overcome this period.

You will feel relief already from August 23, although the influence of the eclipse corridor will be felt until September 6. But already from August 23, you can return to the usual course of business and everyday life, more strength and opportunities will appear. You can plan business and leisure trips for the end of the month and devote time to rest.

small digression

Observing the processes in various human groups, we can say that regardless of the fact that each person has many opportunities for the smooth and loyal passage of evolutionary transitions, few people use them. Therefore, for most people, life in the eclipse corridor and after it resembles a nightmare that you would not wish on your enemy.

It is during this period that each of us gets the opportunity not to spoil our future life, and even to make adjustments to it that will become fatal for 18.5 years. It is in the corridor of eclipses that you can cleanse your soul from the sins of past years and karmic debts from past lives. Do not miss this opportunity, this is your chance to make your existence on planet Earth even more beautiful.

What should be done before the eclipse corridor?

Postpone the decision of important matters, planned operations, business and tourist trips.
Think over your behavior and emotions for at least a period of two weeks.
Postpone marriage and planning for the conception of children.
And since this is the most favorable time to change your life, promote intractable issues, get rid of bad habits and obsolete relationships, take the following steps:
Think carefully about what or with whom it is time for you to part.
Make a list of habits, situations and people you don't like - during the period of meditation on the Lunar Eclipse, you will need to thank them for the experience.
Think carefully about what is missing in your life for complete happiness and what you would like to achieve in order to create a positive intention before the solar eclipse and directly on it and form a program for the next 18.5 years.

By the way, this corridor of eclipses is the best time to work out generic programs, cut off past connections, forgive deep offenses. At this time, the deep layers of karma are revealed, so take time to read prayers, meditations, mantras, visit temples, and help those in need.

And in order to maintain your emotional state in a stable state and soften the energy of two eclipses, you should perform rituals of cleansing the body and living space, rituals of washing with cool water.

And what is the result?

Second week of August

begins with a lunar eclipse (August 7), this is an ideal time to carry out activities that cleanse the body, soul and living space and release old problems and everything that has already become obsolete. Lunar energies are closely related to the element of water, which should be used. Moreover, the moon will be in a waning phase, which provides an opportunity to increase the effectiveness of cleansing procedures.

Third week of August

it is best to devote to planning, choosing the most important aspects in your life that you would like to correct. So that directly on the new moon, when the Total Solar Eclipse will occur, launch all plans into the Universe, make a positive energy message for the next 18.5 years.
