We’re coming to the peak of the 2020 mid-year eclipse season – but don’t, not even for a moment, think it gets easier from this point on.

From 18 June till 12 July, Mercury, planetary ruler of technology, travel, and communication, retrogrades in the Cardinal Water sign of Cancer. During these seasons, we are encouraged to be careful with contracts, back up our devices, and think before we speak. However, this Mercury retrograde is a relatively mild one; it doesn’t form any aspects with major celestial bodies. Just be careful and you’ll be fine.

Now let’s talk about the eclipse.

On Sunday 21 June, the sun will be eclipsed from 3:04 pm till 4:54 pm Singapore time (it will be visible in Singapore, but just barely). This eclipse occurs in the first degree of Cardinal Water sign, Cancer. It also forms a quincunx with stern Saturn, Lord of restrictions and Karma, which is ruling strongly in its home turf of Aquarius.

This eclipse illuminates tensions with houses and homes, exposing unresolved issues between personal freedom and a larger sense of responsibility. Some of you could be offered opportunities where you’ll have to choose between domestic stability and career progress. Others will discover that a sacrifice of self needs to be made for a greater good to be achieved (possibly on behalf of either a family member or a boss); this could lead to resentment and emotional drama down the road. (If there’s one thing that shadow Cancer is good at, it’s bearing pointless grudges.)

Eclipses illuminate our choices in life, and throw our shadow selves out in the open. Whatever choice you make, do it with joy in your heart, and no regrets.

Nothing much else needs to be said except that the energies of eclipses are intense, transformative, and can be abrupt – even shocking or traumatic – if you’re not ready for it. There’s no need to panic, of course. But you’ll certainly benefit from being mindful and observant of life as it unfolds around you.

Let’s get to the reading!

TAROT

LEFT: THE EMPEROR REVERSED. This week, some people might let you down. They could be leaders, figures of authority, elders, or just people you really trusted and looked up to. The reversed Emperor speaks of someone who has abdicated his/her personal power and responsibility – so we’re looking here either at someone who’s neglecting their roles or worse, someone who’s a control freak and micro-manager.

Get a good grip on your own personal power this week, because events could also unfold in a way that might impact you negatively if you allow them. Be open to change – after all, this is eclipse season and a time of mass transformation – but know your boundaries. Stand firm.

MIDDLE: THE MOON. Many of you could be facing a situation where the facts appear to be hidden or distorted. Alternatively, you could be confronted with several versions of the truth, and asked to make a decision. These are bewildering times indeed – take a step back and analyse what’s really going on before you make any decisive moves. It helps to investigate the parts that don’t add up. If you have a good working relationship with your intuition, now is the time to consult your higher wisdom. Don’t rush into anything.

RIGHT: SEVEN OF PENTACLES. Even when the odds are against you, success is still possible. What’s important is that you do what you can, then wait patiently for the outcomes of your efforts to manifest. The Seven of Pentacles is known as the Lord of Harvest, and its appearance in any spread assures you that the fruit of your labour will come.

This is a week where patient, prudent plans and discreet, skilled action will yield immense results. Above all, know who you are and what you stand for. Then stand your ground – and never give up on your goals. The Bible says it well:

Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

The Book of Ephesians, Chapter 6 Verse 13 (New International Version, emphasis mine)

Eclipse seasons are challenging, but contain the seeds of incredible power. Work with eclipse energies to evolve and transform, and YOU, too, can achieve the full potential of your own personal power.

LOT NUMBER 17

莫听闲言说是非
晨昏只好念弥陀
若将狂话为真实
画饼如何止得饥
Ignore gossip; spread no scandal.
Instead, chant holy prayers day and night.
Taking these lies as the truth
Is like drawing cakes to ease your hunger.
(Trans. Tan Kelly)

When this lot is drawn, the traditional interpretation states that 诸事多虚少实也。You could be facing a situation where lies and distortions are aplenty, whilst the truth is a scarce resource; this energy is very similar to the situation in The Moon, which we’ve just discussed. Fact-check everything.

The explanation of this lot goes:

心中不定 枉看经文 恰似画饼 食也难吞
When the heart is ill at ease, even the holy Scriptures cannot soothe it.
A hungry man can draw cakes, but will never eat them.
(Trans. Tan Kelly)

If you’re facing a complex and confusing situation right now – be very, very careful that you are not seeing only what you choose to see. Also, do not allow emotional instability to cloud your clarity of judgement. Maintain a level head at all times; when your emotions are all over the place, even the Divine will be unable to get a message through to you.

Some of you could be offered a simple, too-good-to-be-true opportunity this week. A healthy dose of scepticism will stand you in good stead, as well as the willingness to conduct your own due diligence before committing to a course of action.

With so many retrogrades going on, it goes without saying that you’d do well to “ignore gossip [and] spread no scandal”. Any attempt to start trouble will, more likely than not, backfire quite spectacularly. Unless you genuinely think egg on your face is a good look, I wouldn’t recommend it.

Have a spectacular eclipse week ahead!

2020年的年中日蚀季节将迎来高潮期,但是这并不表示接下来将会更轻松一些。

掌管科技,出行和沟通的水星将会在6月18日到7月12日这段时间里逆行在基本宫的水象星座的巨蟹座。和往常一样,水逆期间我们必须在合约相关的事项采取谨慎的态度,做好资料备份工作,和谨言慎行。不过这次的水逆影响力在因为没有和任何重要的天体形成任何相位的情况下,而相对比较平淡。只要凡事都多小心注意一点就不会有什么太大的问题。

现在我们来谈谈日蚀吧。

日蚀将会发生在新加坡时间6月21日星期天,下午3点04分到4点54分之间,虽然本地可以看得见这奇观可惜却并不是那么明显。这次的日蚀在基本宫的水象星座,巨蟹座的1度维度,并且同时和正处于主场水瓶座的,统治界限和因果的严肃的土星形成了梅花相位。

这次的日蚀焦点集中在了家庭和各个宫位的紧张感,揭露着在个人自由和更多的责任感之间的未了心结以及存在的问题等等。有些人会被给予需要在让事业更上一层楼和稳定性之间做出选择的机会。其他人则会发现在家人或者雇主方需要做出牺牲小我完成大我的选择,这在接下来的日子可形成一种厌恶感。因为毕竟巨蟹座最擅长的,就是紧紧抱着那些没有必要的恩怨不放。

日蚀会点亮我们生命中的抉择,并且把我们的阴暗面曝露在阳光底下。不论你做出什么选择,愿你都怀抱着喜悦和无怨无悔。

只要能清楚明白日蚀的能量是激烈,充满着变化和具有突发性的,甚至是在你完全没有心理准备下会被这股能量造成创伤。但是你也不用太紧张。只要多细心和观察生活里所发生的事,你必能从中受益。

【左:皇帝(逆位)】

你在这周里可能会对某些人感到失望。这些人可是掌握着权贵之人,或者是你一直都很敬仰的人。逆位的皇帝诉说着放弃了自身力量和责任的人,这个人可能是一个长久忽视自己的责任的人,或者也可是一个控制狂。

在这周里请掌握好你的个人力量,否则周遭所发生的事情可能会对你造成负面的影响。毕竟这是个充满着变化时机的日蚀季节,你要清楚明白自己的界限在哪里和保持自己的立场。

【中:月亮】

有许多人或许会面对一个情报不足或者真相被隐藏起来的状况。从另一方面,你可能会被迫面对有着不同版本真实的情况并需要做出一个选择。现在确是一个扑朔迷离的时间,不妨退一步来分析一下情况才来做出决定。这可以帮助你整理那些不清晰的情报。如果一直以来你都和自己的直觉有着很好的合作关系,那么现在正是你咨询你的更高智慧的时候,切勿匆忙做决定。

【右:金币7】

即使前方充满着障碍,你还是有成功的机会的。最重要的是你尽自己的全力然后耐心地等待自己苦心耕耘的成果实现。金币7是收获之主,这张牌的出现意味着你的努力将会有成果。

在这周里,耐性,保守,慎重和有技巧的行动将会带来巨大的结果。最重要的是你要清楚自己的立场和价值,然后继续坚持不放弃目标。圣经里的这部分对于这方面说得极好:

所 以 , 要 拿 起 神 所 赐 的 全 副 军 装 , 好 在 磨 难 的 日 子 抵 挡 仇 敌 , 并 且 成 就 了 一 切 , 还 能 站 立 得 住 。

——— 以 弗 所 書 :第6章第13行

日蚀季节虽然充满挑战性,但是也隐含具有强大力量的种子。当你能随着日蚀的能量进化和转变,你也能够取得发挥自己的力量的潜能。

【观音签:第十七签】

莫听闲言说是非
晨昏只好念弥陀
若将狂话为真实
画饼如何止得饥

此签的签语说着的是诸事多虚少实也。你可能正面临着一个充满了欺瞒与被扭曲的事实,无法清楚辨明真相的情况里。这股能量和前面的塔罗月亮很相像。在做任何决定前,请务必要先做好勘查工作。

若你正处于一个复杂的状况里,切记自己不可以只看自己想看的。别让不安的情绪影响你的判断力。凡事要冷静和实际,因为当你的情绪失控的时候,神灵的话语也很难传达给你。

有些人可能会遇上一个看似过于美好的机会,稍微心存一点怀疑和愿意花费心思去做点参考总是好的,别冲动行事。

在诸多行星逆行的时候,大家最好是保持谦卑。爱惹是生非的人将更容易遭到其负能量的反噬。

祝大家有个愉快的一周!
