The eclipses of this series have drawn attention to your partnerships. What is your pattern in Significant Relationships? What needs to be repaired or improved? How might you contribute to a fuller, richer life for yourself as well as the important persons in your life? It is crucial to search out solutions that favor everyone concerned. Recapitulation of old habits will simply regenerate trauma.

For All Signs On Oct. 17 we will have a full moon eclipse in the sign of Aries at 8:14am. A lunar eclipse is essentially a strongly punctuated full moon. All those activities normally related to the full moons, such as increased traffic and potential for accidents, general hyperactivity, etc. are strongly accented. Often full moons bring fulfillment or consummation of important affairs in life. If an activity has a flaw or a foundation problem, its crack becomes visible near the full moons.

Aries Your personal identity is the subject under consideration. Who are you becoming and who do you need to be? How do you wish to define yourself before the world? How can you develop an individual identity that is workable while simultaneously maintaining a personally rewarding relationship?

Taurus The current eclipse series emphasizes your need for internal order and self-reflection. Remain true to your deepest self. Time will yield the secular opportunities that you need. Consider hypnosis or meditation, psychotherapy, dream work or journaling as resources to help you contemplate.

You may be more conscious than usual about existential matters related to life, death, and what is on "the other side" of normal, waking consciousness.

Honing your management systems in personal and work arenas is necessary to improve the efficiency of the daily work routine.

Sagittarius The eclipse pattern emphasizes your progeny. Intense experiences could come through your children or other personally creative births. The time is approaching to let go of friendships and associations that no longer serve you well. Romantic ventures are intensely emotional and self-revealing.

Capricorn Matters concerning your family are accented. Old problems in relationships, even with the deceased, are brought to consciousness for cleansing and healing. Bringing career into alignment with your true self is an important focus. That which doesn't genuinely fit must be rearranged or eliminated.

Aquarius The accent of this eclipse period is on travel, education, care of vehicles and relationships to siblings, roommates, neighbors, or others who daily traverse your life. Now is the time to focus on learning new and practical life skills. Let go of outmoded belief systems.

Pisces This eclipse series accents personal and financial resources. Debts need to be repaid. Income tax issues, they may surface over the next year.
