“Regardless of what we are ready to resolve and release, it is time to do so in order to be prepared to enter the next stage of our journey, feeling fulfilled and renewed. Another quantum leap forward in our personal and collective consciousness. What are you willing to do? What are you ready to leave behind to create more space for the reality you desire? Now is the time to ask yourself these questions and make the necessary adjustments to move forward in greater love.”
Emmanuel Dagher
Every person experiences recurring events in life, and most people do not understand how to break free from them. Eclipse energy provides just such an opportunity.
This is a favorable time for rapid change, when life can be turned 180 degrees.
Any eclipses carry the energy of innovation and give strength for renewal. This is a wonderful moment to lay the foundation for a happy life, an opportunity for a fresh start.
A time when some doors close and others open with new circumstances.
In this article, we will discuss how to navigate the challenging eclipse period beneficially, where to direct your energy if you have a desire for change.
Should You Fear Eclipses
Almost all astrologers, when speaking about eclipses, warn that this is a dangerous period. They advise caution, give recommendations on what can be done during eclipse days, and what absolutely should not be done.
I do not wish to refute or confirm astrological forecasts; I propose looking at such a natural phenomenon as an eclipse from a different angle — from the perspective of opportunities.
Emmanuel Daguerre said that an eclipse is one of the most powerful astrological phenomena, because they often herald the onset of major changes. I would only add that without your participation, these changes will not happen in your life.
The energy of an eclipse, as well as other astrological phenomena, is just a tool that you can learn to use.
It is like any other household tool: a hammer, a knife, scissors, an axe… As long as you have not learned to master them, they are dangerous for you; you can get hurt. But the ability to use them skillfully changes your life for the better.
With a hammer, you can drive nails, creating comfort in your home, or you can hit your fingers.
Would you then blame the hammer for being the cause of your pain? Would you be afraid of it if someone told you that this household item poses a threat to your health?
Note that this is not distorted information; a hammer can indeed be dangerous in unskilled hands. In any information, there are two sides to the coin, and both have the right to exist.
The only question is to see these sides and decide for yourself which one suits you. Do you prefer to sit in fear, or do you choose to create?
I also want to draw your attention to the fact that you will not deny the usefulness of a hammer, even if you do not use this tool in your life.
There are two options:
- Your life without using a hammer does not change; everything simply remains the same. It is up to you to choose whether you want change or if you are satisfied with everything.
- You replace the hammer with another tool. This is quite practical — everyone chooses what they like. There are no universal tools; there is only what suits you or does not suit you.
Use the energy of the eclipse as a tool, learn to direct it skillfully to achieve the desired result.
It depends only on you whether to fear this phenomenon or to use the magical time for your own benefit.
The constructive power of emotions during eclipses
For people, the time of an eclipse is always heightened emotionality; the energies act in such a way that unfolding events stir up a wave of emotions. But this is not accidental, as emotional impulses are capable of igniting the light of the soul.
At the moment when a person experiences a strong emotion, a flash occurs. Simultaneously with the emotional outburst, a person’s inner light “explodes” and breaks through as a source into the outer world.
It does not matter at all what quality of emotions you experienced, positive or negative. For the soul, it makes no difference which emotions manifested; the coloring of emotions is given by the personality, the human part of you.
When emotions are caused by unpleasant events, it is important to be able not to concentrate on that emotion, not to get stuck in a state of negativity.
Think that you are in the moment of manifesting your power. And then it depends on you where you direct this power, toward building your life or toward destruction.
Emotions are a resource of the unconscious, an unlimited opportunity to use the power of inner light to solve important life issues, to achieve desired results.
Thus, through emotions, the eclipse amplifies the likelihood for humanity to manifest its light as brightly as possible, to live through this period of time in light and love, thereby laying positive trends for the development of events in the near future after the eclipse.
If you want to change your life circumstances as effectively as possible, control what impulses you transmit to the outer world, where you direct your light, your energy.
Do not get emotionally involved in the aggressive moods of those around you; be cautious. Time has accelerated now, so everything you send out into the world returns to you almost instantly like a boomerang.
Your friendliness and goodwill towards others will very quickly return to you a hundredfold.
You can react to any situation in different ways; even standing up for yourself and your rights can be done without anger, wrath, irritation, or aggression. It is important to maintain inner calm.
Perform actions with love for yourself and care for those around you.
When you live through this cycle in a positive mood, with joy and enthusiasm, feeling interest in the ongoing processes, then any techniques, practices, rituals, and meditations you perform during the eclipse period will yield the best possible results for you.
You can learn which practices to perform during a solar eclipse and what the eclipse corridor is from the article “Practices and Rituals for the Solar Eclipse.”
Do not take external steps; work with your internal perception of unpleasant situations
The eclipse period is a rather unfavorable time for new beginnings, but it is very favorable for going within yourself to sort out your internal conflicts.
It is a time that provides an opportunity to get rid of patterns and illusions, and of a distorted perception of yourself.
Based on your ideas about the world around you, the events of real life are constructed. When you change internally, this is primarily reflected in everyday situations.
Set aside time for yourself, choose a convenient secluded place, and turn inward. Express a sincere, pure intention to communicate with your soul.
Listen to yourself and try to understand from the depths of your soul what you really want, what is true for you? What changes do you feel you need?
Which old behavior patterns are no longer viable for you?
Read about where desires of the mind can lead and how to understand your true desires in the article “3 signs that will help you identify a true desire.”
The energy of the eclipse promotes a rethinking of life values. By turning your gaze inward, look at life circumstances with a fresh perspective.
Realize what prevents you from moving forward with ease, and what gives you strength, motivating and inspiring you.
What to pay attention to during the eclipse period
The events that happen to you during this time are not random. View them as important messages from the Universe. In this way, you receive feedback from the outside world.
Unpleasant external events show where to look for a problem within yourself. Joyful circumstances indicate that you are moving in the right direction.
Exacerbation of situations
If troubles occur in your life during an eclipse, this is not a reason for disappointment. By highlighting certain events, you are shown that it is time to change your strategy, the time has come to rethink something within yourself.
During this period, pay close attention to what is happening around you, try to consciously interpret the situations you find yourself in. Think about which direction you need to move in to solve the problem that has arisen.
If relations with your immediate circle deteriorate — relatives, neighbors, friends, and especially personal partnerships — it means you need to find a fulcrum within yourself to free yourself from old patterns and beliefs.
Manifestation of old scenarios and people from the past
When during the influence of eclipse energy people or events from the past repeat in your life, it means you are being given the opportunity to evolutionarily transition to a new level.
Forward movement is impossible if you have not dealt with your past, as it still has an impact on your life.
As a rule, these are events and people that evoked strong emotions and experiences in you. These could be positive events — past love relationships, past successes in business and finances, or involvement in certain circumstances.
They could also be negative and difficult, when you went through pain and disappointment with someone or something.
Think about what within you from the past is pulling you back? What is the burden that has made you so stuck in the past that you cannot live in the present?
Where your thoughts are, there your energy is. Thoughts about the past drain a huge amount of energy that you could use to create positive events in the present.
By voluntarily pouring your energy into dwelling on thoughts of the past, you no longer have the strength to live in the present.
Staying in your comfort zone can also drain your energy; read about this in the article “What is the comfort zone and why is it dangerous to stay in it for too long.”
The eclipse gives you a chance to see the accumulation of past energies in your life.
Use this wonderful time to break the chains of attachment within yourself, in your own mind, regarding relationships with other people.
This is necessary to free up space within yourself and begin building quality relationships at a new level in the external world.
By freeing yourself from the shackles of the past, through rethinking, through awareness of internal processes, you allow the new to enter your life in the form of pleasant events.
And in the coming months after the eclipse, you will feel that you have moved from a dead point.

Diseases
Exacerbation of diseases of the physical body during this period has a psychosomatic nature.
They indicate that you have unmet needs, pointing out that your thoughts, beliefs, grievances, claims, and demands on other people are destroying you.
It is necessary to eliminate not the symptoms, but the causes of such problems. Your health directly depends on your internal state, your perception of external events, and your worldview as a whole.
Louise Hay’s book “The Healing Power of Thought” will help you free yourself from all accumulated negativity.
Universe’s Hints
The energy of the eclipse contributes to heightened intuition and premonition. Be attentive to your thoughts, actions, reactions, and states.
Pay attention to dreams, symbols, numbers, signs. Important insights, valuable revelations, and realizations may occur.
The hints will indicate which direction to move in and help you better understand yourself, to feel what your soul is asking for.
