Starwatch : Celebrity Break-Ups and the Upcoming Eclipses
Cats: starwatch|Notice the sudden surge of celebrity break-ups lately? Kate Moss and her current creepy guy, A-rod and his wife, Madonna and Guy, Drew Barrymore and Apple Guy possibly Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner? In the land of real people, you probably know of some friends breaking up suddenly this month.
The reason? Eclipse madness. The weeks leading up to an eclipse are filled with scatty, intense energy which can push for sudden, inexplicable change. The Eclipses next month are a Solar eclipse in Leo on the 1st of August and a Lunar eclipse on the 16th in Aquarius. From now until then, we all may be blindsided by fast-moving events. A lot of couples break up at eclipse time. This is the first full eclipse pairing on the Leo – Aquarius axis (for the past few years we have been dealing with eclipses on the Virgo-Pisces axis). Leos, especially, may be in line for a break-up as the Lunar eclipse falls in their partnership house and Madonna, Ben Affleck, and A-rod (what is his name anyway?) are all Leos.
What’s the best advice for dealing with the crazy energy? If you get in a fight with your sweetie, and feel like chucking it all in, step back and try to look at things logically before you walk out the door. People we lose at eclipse times are normally gone for good, sometimes that can be a good thing, but just try to not get too caught up in emotions that you make bad decisions.
