Happy LEO TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE! – exact today at 1:36 pm EDT, 10:36 am PDT, 6:36 pm UT.

We are now officially in the midst of a momentous eclipse season hearkening visible, epic shifts – amazingly and fittingly, this first eclipse arrives on the heels of the ALREADY epic astrology transits in 2026!

  • This Leo Total Solar Eclipse is incredibly important – also because it takes place in the Sun’s OWN sign of LEO.

What is quite unusual is that the South Node is now in Leo, so this is a South Node Eclipse – signifying endings.

But it’s ALSO a total New Moon eclipse of new beginnings!

  • So you are both letting go of the past by shedding old ideas and releasing old patterns while also welcoming a new beautiful life…

In the process you are addressing any self-centered patterns (shadow side of Leo) that are impeding growth in order to tune to your inner heartstrings and courageously sing your joyful song of Light (high-vibrational expression of Leo).

This eclipse is all about how you choose to LEAD.

Your inner Sun wants to shine!

  • Be a leader who by shining the gifts of wisdom and joy uplifts and helps others.

Now, the South Node of the Moon at 29°, final degree of Leo, makes this a particular critical Total Solar Eclipse.

Master number 29/11 intensifies what we are to learn, magnifying the invitation to be courageous and strong and doing so by listening to our inner voice from moment to moment.

*If you are born in a fixed sign or have a strong emphasis in the fixed signs (Leo, Taurus, Scorpio, Aquarius) you are feeling this Leo Total Solar Eclipse especially strongly.

And that’s not all.

Sun and Moon are joined by Jupiter and Mercury, with Jupiter at 9° Leo just under 11° from the Total Solar Eclipse.

To be sure, Jupiter in Leo is magnifying the impact of the Leo eclipse.

Including the size of Earth events (geologic and weather-related). There is a great potential for truly major earthquakes, volcanic activity and storms from over the next sixth months – at least.

Since Leo is connected to royalty – i.e. leaders – leadership will be in the spotlight to a great degree across the globe.

Circling back to the South Node’s presence at 29° Leo, its impact on leaders whose time has come to release the reigns of power will be strong over the next six to twelve months.

The power theme is especially enhanced by the opposition of expansive Jupiter to Pluto, planet of power.

Pluto, modern ruler of Scorpio, also uncovers the truth, especially related to power dynamics.

Pluto’s presence in Aquarius opposite this powerful Total Solar Eclipse in Leo points to a greater storyline of powerful elite (secret) groups in oppositional energy to visible leaders.

This is very dynamic, catalyzing energy.

  • Plus, Mars has just arrived at 00° Cancer hours prior to the eclipse!

00° Cancer is one of four Aries points – the first degrees of each of the four cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) which begin new seasons.

This indicates the birth of a new leader. The beginning of a brand new kind of leadership.

Mars in this position now creates a square to Neptune (in Mars’ sign of Aries), which means it is important to check all “facts” to make sure that they are actually true.

Also, guard against taking any mind-altering substances.

The birthing energy of this epic eclipse is awakening and deepening your God-given gifts of leadership.

To ensure that you maintain your inner serenity this month and beyond, be sure to go outside and bask in the Sun, sights and sounds of nature whenever you have an opportunity to do wo.

Give gratitude for all that is good… and be open to receive liberating AHA moments.

During eclipse season it’s an especially good time to activate own personal Moon code.

  • For example, you were born during one of eight specific phases of the Moon.
  • This Moon PHASE you were born into is just ONE of your 7 Moon Zones!

Uncover the significance of each of your seven Moon zones, so you can take heart-centered manifestation to a new level!

You'll love knowing the significance of your Moon sign, Moon house, Moon phase, Moon degree number – plus all Moon aspects to your other planets and angles…and more.
