Astrology of Eclipses: Solar Eclipse of March 19, 2007 in 28 Pisces

Mermaid

Solar Eclipse of March 19, 2007 will occur 28 Pisces

The solar eclipse of March 19, 2007 will occur at 28° Pisces, so the following areas traditionally ruled by Pisces may experience effects linked to the eclipse:

Alexandria (Egypt) and northern Egypt in general, Calabria (Italy), the Republic of Georgia, Compostella (Italy), Anatolia/Ankara (Turkey), Libya, Regensburg (Germany), Reims (France).

It is said that eclipses are the most noticeable in their effects when they are both visible in the place and that place is ruled by the sign in which the eclipse occurs. This eclipse will be partly visible in Asia (including China, Japan, Thailand, Cambodia, Mongolia, North and South Korea, and west from there), and the Arctic. We should see the eclipse as far west as the very edge of Saudi Arabia. So all of the countries where the eclipse will be visible are potentially affected as well. The effect of the eclipse will last for about three years and nine months.

As an example, below is the horoscope for the solar eclipse set for Kabul, Afghanistan, where the solar eclipse will be visible. The horoscope is set for March 19, 2007, 7:13 a.m. local time, Kabul, Afghanistan.

Solar Eclipse March 19, 2007 - Kabul Afghanistan

The effects of the eclipse on Kabul will begin by mid July, 2007, and the culmination or strongest effect will occur within the first 15 months after the eclipse, so by June, 2008, we would expect to see some effects.

For all of the locations affected by the eclipse, here are some of the characteristics associated with Pisces. According to Lilly and Ptolemy, eclipses in watery signs primarily affect fish, all bodies of water, and navigation. Pisces specifically is associated with floods. Because Pisces is a double bodied sign, it especially threatens the rulers of the affected countries, and the ruling classes in general.

Further, because the eclipse is occurring around the ascendant, we would expect it to affect matters newly begun, so to the extent that Afghanistan’s government can be considered a thing newly begun, it may be especially prone to the effects of this eclipse.

The ruler of the eclipse is Jupiter, which rules the sign of Pisces, where the solar eclipse is occurring. Jupiter causes everything, good and bad, to increase. According to Lilly (spelling and punctuation modernized by me): “[Jupiter] multiplies all living creatures which are behooveful for man, and portends destruction to such animals as are hurtful to man…Rivers swell with no immoderate floods, plenty of all manner of fruit appears, religious men increase in the church, many whereof attain to very high preferments, or have great honors conferred on them; ministers grow proud and haughty. The laws are executed and upright judges are employed by the states. New customs or privileges are conferred on the people…”

Overall, this doesn’t seem too bad, though I wonder whether this indicates a growing influence of religious figures on the politics of Afghanistan.

    Hi, Nina
    which method you use to atribute signs to the countries which the ancient didn´t know about, like japan, brasil and USA ?

    Hi Yuzuru,

    I don’t. This is something I really wish I had a good answer for, and I just don’t. I will use the Grand Conjunction chart preceding formation, however, which seems to do the trick.

    What do you do in these cases?

    Warmly,
    Nina

    Hi Nina,
    How is a solar eclipse read into a natal chart? Would the effects be seen according to the time frame listed above?

  4. gryphonastrology said,

    Hi S,

    Good question. From what I’ve observed, people respond to the eclipse a lot faster than countries do, but I haven’t noticed a particular timeframe. But I haven’t intensively looked at this, so perhaps someone else who has may speak up.

    Warmly,
    Nina

    Hi Nina,

    Doesn’t this eclipse immediately precede the Spring Equinox? What are your thoughts about the effect of that? Intuitively to me, it would seem like the two may dampen the effects of each other–or on the other hand, amplify. So obviously I have no real idea and lots of curiousity about this peculiar juxtaposition.

    Hi Cinmaya,

    I would think the two effects are amplified - thank you for pointing this out. When I investigate the Aries Ingress chart, it will be interesting to see where the eclipse falls in that and what it signifies.

    Warmly,
    Nina

    What does it mean if an eclipse falls on one’s birthday?

  8. Suzanne said,

    March 3rd, 2007 at 8:07 am

    But why would the effects happen in July and not immediately on the day of the eclipse?

  9. gryphonastrology said,

    March 3rd, 2007 at 3:37 pm

    Hi Suzanne,

    Because a solar eclipse is like a delivery of seeds, or a delivery of raw cosmic power, as it were. According to the duration of the eclipse, the seeds will grow into a full plant only at a later time. You may wish to take a look at Ptolemy’s Tetrabiblos for this very old approach to eclipses.

    I’m curious about the fixed star Scheat in Pisces at the time of the eclipse. Is that significant?

  12. Sha said,

    March 8th, 2007 at 9:02 am

    If this fixed stars nature is of mars and mercury, does it mean anything that mars is at 16 degree like the north node? Or that mercury has just moved into Pisces?

  13. gryphonastrology said,

    March 8th, 2007 at 9:20 am

    Hi Sha,

    I expect Scheat would not be benefic, but that is par for the course for an eclipse. In general, we would look at the nature of the star as Mars and Mercury “as such,” rather than specifically for this chart. But to the extent Mars and Mercury are important in this chart, we would look at their conditions as well.

    Warmly,
    Nina

    Hi Sara,

    Do you mean a solar return? It’s a chart for the moment when the Sun returns to the same location in the zodiac it occupied at your birth. It’s used to determine conditions in the year ahead.

    Warmly,
    Nina

    Hi Nina,

    I hope this is not too out of topic. What do you think about the effects of an eclipse on an unborn child, do you think they can be possible? Or is it just a myth?

    Thanks,

    I think Pluto square this eclipse throws in some unbalanced power to light. If you have something 28 degrees mutable, this could mean great change.
    This will be a second year for an solar eclipse on my birthday. Mine is the 16th. There have been themes of pluto good and bad effecting my sun or life force. In my second house means values or what I value will be challenged by acts of manipulation, coersive people, or even downright betrayal. I got married during a eclipse year several years ago. However, this eclipse has pluto in square so themes for the mutable signs are not so great. Most allready feel this eclispe.

    However, this is a separating square for me by four degrees. If applying or exact themes of pluto are even more apparent. rebirth.

    Bernette Brady has the saros series which begin in the 1500’s and this is the same one which happened in 1971 the last time. also an eclipse in 1969 had this same degree.

    I have read many different descriptions of this eclipse in particular. I would most concerned if it falls on a major angle. Eclipses have a way of bringing things off the back burner to give a shot of life if a solar eclipse. Lunar is more crisis oriented. This eclipse has the planetary squares to contend with.

    I have also feared eclipses, so you are not alone on this one.
