Well, folks, the eclipses are eclipsing.
Between February 17 and March 3rd, we are in the throes of an eclipse corridor, when odds of the unexpected are high and shocking changes ride shotgun, think fated endings and sudden vacancies.
Gentle it ain’t, but necessary it is, and one astrologer says the potent power of eclipse season makes it an ideal time to give a static relationship the final kiss off.
“Traditionally, we wait for a Full Moon to end things, but this Solar Eclipse, taking place Feb 17 in Aquarius, is a necessary system upgrade,” astrologer Babs Cheung, aka The Astro Translator, told The Post.
“It’s not about a slow, tearful goodbye; it’s about an immediate ejection with Aquarius co-piloting the first half of this eclipse. For some, it’s a choice; for others, it’s long overdue. “
According to Cheung, four signs in particular will be hearing and heeding the call of the wild.
“It’s no surprise that you’re feeling the itch to reclaim independence as the solar eclipse illuminates your first house of identity, Aquarius,” shared Cheung.
“Simply put, the person you were when you entered this relationship has been deleted with no hope for recovery. If they feel like a stranger to you now, it’s because you’ve already moved on in the future.”
Cheung notes that for Leo folk, the Aquarius eclipse will hit their seventh house of trusted partnerships
“You might be trying to pretend that your relationship is not quicksand. But the Solar Eclipse is a harsh spotlight, and you’re being forced to realize that your usual ‘Main Character’ light is being dimmed by someone who has a non-recurring role. Time to say your goodbyes with a ‘cut to black’ finale,” Cheung said.
Lunar Eclipse in Virgo
When the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo rolls in on March 3rd, it’s a clean-up call for any lingering emotional carnage.
“After foundations have been rocked and tower moments pass, what we have is a house-flipping opportunity of a lifetime,” shared Cheung.
“Lunar eclipses act as cosmic trashmen, and with Virgo leading the refuse rally, the team is ready to rip away the old smelly carpet to reveal antique wooden floors.”
Down to the studs and ever onward, folks.
“You’re looking at the receipts and realizing the math simply doesn’t add up, and now there’s hell to pay, Virgo. It’s a period of deep release and physical scrubbing,” said Cheung.
“You’re not just done with cleaning up others’ messes; you’re detoxing your entire life. This is the final signature. Cry if you have to, but make any ending official.”
“With the Lunar Eclipse hitting your 7th house of partners — and Mercury Retrograde spinning through your sign simultaneously—you are Ground Zero for breakup drama, Pisces,” promised Cheung.
“This isn’t your run-of-the-mill breakup; revenge is best expressed by crashing out in poetry, songwriting, or taking to your socials. While I don’t completely condone airing out dirty laundry, the internet could use the wisdom and breakthroughs you’re about to receive.”
