JULY 21ST SOLAR ECLIPSE

Eclipses do pretty much what they say they are going to do, eclipse something in your life if they conjunct or oppose or square a planet in your chart (natal or progressed) within a four degree orb on either side. I think we can agree that death is the ultimate eclipse.

My experience shows that it's the time before the eclipse that is the most dangerous or draining. You must also look at the planet involved and the house position.

Michael Jackson's funeral was on the day of an eclipse at 15 degrees Capricorn which was in orb of his 19 degree progressed Venus (by square)  in the 1st House of Self. Lunar eclipses are full moon eclipses where matters materialize. It's a completion. The first house being Michael, himself. Venus rules the things you want. In a negative aspect like a square, it could impact your perception of how you are loved or even if you are loved. It also could give you a negative feeling about how you look to others since Venus rules beauty.

In the weeks, even months before Michael's performance dates, he may not have been feeling positive about himself, possibly causing him to need drugs to sleep or drugs to feel better. He may have used something detrimental to cope with this negative energy. This was a vulnerable time for him astrologically and the eclipse, as they are known to do, may have triggered an event.

There is another eclipse coming up on July 21st. This one is 29 degrees Cancer, a solar eclipse, so if you are born on the 18th to 23rd of July, your Sun will be eclipsed. This may have to do with you or men in your life. Also getting affected are Capricorns born on January 15th to 19th by opposition. And if it does hit you, you will already be feeling it now. It can also aspect any of the other planets in your chart.
