Eclipses are dramatic events in life. Eclipses always indicate some change in life where they fall in the house in the birth chart. They help us to pull out some of our difficulties in life although it is very tough to do and get us out of situations where we are not needed. They bring some unpleasant, shocking, unbelievable and mind boggling experiences and help in to evolve our soul. Eclipse works very fast and they are asking for us to change.
Each year, you should pay attention to the sign and house of the eclipses that fall in your birth chart and indicate some adjustment or changes in your life and move forward in your life.
The nakshatra is also very important in which an eclipse falls. It will also give some clue how it will affect you. Generally, the nakshatra, and its meaning, will be spoiled before and after for the next few months of the eclipse. For this reason, various remedial measures have been recommended by priests in order to counteract the negative effect of an eclipse in each nakshatra.
In India, it is common for people to fast for 10 hours before an eclipse and then perform a havan (fire ritual) and chanting of a mantra for the particular nakshatra in which the eclipse is happening. Meditation is also recommended on this day to calm down the mind.
Now Ketu is the South Node of the Moon in Scorpio and Rahu is the North Node of the Moon in the sign of Taurus. Ketu exalted in Scorpio and Rahu exalted in Taurus. On May 26th there is a total lunar eclipse in the sign of Scorpio in the nakshatra of Anuradha at 11 degree. So the total eclipse in Scorpio will impact more on the spiritual side because Ketu is there.
Every sign has negative and positive attributes. On a negative side Scorpio is the sign of jealousy, manipulation, control, revenge and possessiveness. On the positive side Scorpio is the sign of mysticism, spirituality, devotion, freedom and detachment. It totally depends on how much the individual evolves.
Anuradha nakshatra is symbolized by a lotus flower, reflecting the ability to blossom in any adverse condition of life. The deity of Anuradha nakshstra is Mitra, the God of Friendship and Partnership. Anuradha individuals have the great ability to gather people together for social and spiritual activities. The shakti is “the power of worship”.
The eclipse here helps you come out from the negative quality of Scorpio. Ketu, the South Node of the Moon concentrating and focusing energy compels you to look into your own negative behaviour and help to look beyond what is the true essence of life.
Exactly opposite of the eclipse point, the Sun is in Rohini along with Rahu and Venus in the sign of Taurus. Sometimes too much attachment to another person could be unhealthy. It can create too emotional problems if the other person is not responding or if not understanding to you.
This is a good time for looking at your unhealthy attachments with others and asking yourself if the attachment is healthy and balanced. Giving to someone too much and ignoring your own needs can be a sign of an unhealthy relationship. It's a great time for introspection of your own value and your own needs and be sure that you aren’t losing yourself to some unhealthy relationship. You just need to nurture yourself and take care of your emotions. Don’t hold onto unnecessary baggage. Don’t force anything unnecessary. This eclipse all about change and growth. Release and let go of the emotional burden of life and give importance to your value.
The deity that rules Anuradha nakshatra is Mitra, the god of friendship, so the mantra for this eclipse is Om Namo MitrasyaVarunasya Chakshse Maho Devaay, Tadrit Gwwam SaprYat DooramDrishe Dev Jaataay, Ketve DivSputraay SooryoYash Gwwam Sat.
Om Mitraay Namah..
