Endings & Beginnings
Have you recently been feeling something in your life is coming to an end but not knowing what is coming? On 20 April 2023, the Hybrid Solar Eclipse at 29 Degrees in Aries I wrote about here, will trigger these endings and beginnings in the area of your life that almost feel fated. It has to happen and it depends on how you deal with it. This is an unusual eclipse where out of the 224 solar eclipses in the 21st century, only 7 are hybrid (a mixture of total in some places and annular ‘ring-like’ shape in others).
Below are the generalized insights applicable to your Rising signs. Of course, how it plays out depends on the interactions and aspects to each unique natal chart which can be analyzed further by a professional astrologer. You may wonder why is everyone saying eclipses are powerful but you don’t get it because there wasn’t much impact on you over the years. This question has been on my mind before I became an astrologer as I am a very skeptical person :) The greatest impact of an eclipse is when it forms hard aspects (conjunction, square or opposition) to your natal planets. The effect can last up to 2 years, especially when Mars crosses the same point after the eclipse date or the Sun making its first square to the eclipse point about 3 months later.
Aries: This is a total new beginning for your overall self. Appearance, body, health, mindset. Might be a change in your social circle that will trigger you for an overhaul. You might let go of some old friends and make new ones. A whole new you, Aries!
Taurus: This eclipse is more internal and hidden. You will have this inner desire and drive to start something new. It might trigger a change in your career path. Trust your intuition if its asking you to let go of certain things because a new door is opening up for you.
Gemini: Do you have a sudden urge to start a project relating to technology? Perhaps work together with your friends on this project? There could be a chance for you to travel abroad to gain some inspirations and new ideas or further your studies overseas and make new friends. Changing your belief system will invite new like-minded people to join you.

Perhaps some unexpected money from insurance, new loan, inheritance, lottery winning is finally giving you the courage to pursue your dream career without having to worry about surviving on paycheck to paycheck every month.

A healthy daily regime, taking good care of your overall wellbeing and health will help you.
