First I would like to remind everyone eclipses are a normal occurrence, usually happening at least four times a year. This one has gained an unusual amount of attention because it is a total solar eclipse sweeping across the USA . . . that’s all. That’s not to say it won’t be an awe inspiring event because having experienced one first hand many years ago, I can attest it will be amazing!

This is the second New Moon in Leo this year (the first was on July 23 at 0°44 Leo). The New Moon Solar Eclipse is at 28° 53 Leo on 21 August 2017, 11:30 AM PDT.

Like so many people, I am a paradox. I am a politically conservative vegetarian. I am from a Christian background, and still tend to like those values, but am a metaphysical astrologer trained in science who has an interest in the magic of ancient Egypt and a weird belief that some piece of our essence can live on a server. I live in Texas, but like chatting with my international Wordpress pals the best. I learn by teaching. Technically, I am a "Leo," but I am very, very Aquarian with a dose of Scorpio. I bitterly complain about Algol (and Algol personaliites), yet it is the one star that defines me most (other than Regulus). (Which, oddly, makes me an Algol personality.) I am a reclusive lover of peace and quiet who has the Ascendant in the Via Combusta (the most conflict ridden part of the zodiac). I am an incredibly private person with a blog with over 800 followers and 50 to 150 regular daily visitors. I could go on, but I think you get the picture.
