Had a big meetup again where I work, people who havent seen others in a long time happy to see each other. Yet others have had axes to grind and saved it all up to unload. It has been interesting. Thought this was a good video for the upcoming week and the eclipse.

Your thoughts and your situation? Any changes already underway? Does it seem like a calm before the storm? Does it feel normal?

I recently ended a long term relationship and that has brought about some major changes for me. But I am not stopping there. I wanna restart everything. Want to just uproot and start all over somewhere! Dislike my job, so wanna get rid of that too.. Now I just feel like I am cleaning my closet out of trash.. wanna get rid of everything in my life that makes me unhappy.

I am sorry about that - you seem to be doing ok, I would of course be a wreck - wishing you well - I feel like that too but no matter how much I try, I still can't push but so far forward and so even though I want to I seem to be stuck and that sucks big- time ... the most I can do is to try to stay calm knowing I am working hard toward my goal and once I reach that goal, then the changes will start to happen -

Work and art are going better than expected, creativity is at an all time high, but I have major problems on the home front this week. I hope by Fri. Things will have worked themselves out. Relationships are fine.

Do you know about the Saros cycles?

Dont know about those, what are they?

Just something that seems incredibly insane for me to even figure out. Every eclipse is part of a series of eclipses, where each series takes place over 18 years.

They are not sequential, so it takes time to figure out which eclipse belongs to what series... if that makes sense. It's not just chronologically one after the other in the sky.

That's why I find it very hard to assign meaning to an eclipse (not that I'm disparaging the idea). It takes work and I don't know how people do it. So far, the only person I read online who acknowledges the cycles is the Astrology King guy down in Australia.

Here is an explanation on predicting the saros cycles (two videos):

Sorry I didnt make it clickable, didnt want the video to clog up the screen.

This is all astronomy point of view. Not sure but I think this guy is saying they are sequential, which would make it easier to figure out, unless from an astrology point of view they cant be because you have to take the sign into account.

From an astrology point of view, I can gather this:

In astrology, the first and initial eclipse of a Saros series bears a founding meaning or promise that is carried on throughout the eclipse series.

It would be interesting to look at how this has played out in the saros series for each of us. I know that astrologers like to link eclipses together in terms of themes.

Unfortunately due to my crazy workload I cant look into this more until after this eclipse... lol.
