Someone messaged me this week and said:
"I'm a Leo. The eclipse was in Leo. And I felt absolutely nothing. Am I doing astrology wrong?"
First you are not doing astrology wrong. You are simply doing astrology without degrees. And degrees are everything.
I asked them: what degree are your Leo placements at?
They came back a few minutes later: 4 degrees and 7 degrees.
The eclipse was at 20 degrees Leo.
I said: that's why. The eclipse wasn't knocking on your door. It was looking for 20 degrees. You're at 4 and 7. Same sign, completely different neighborhood. It passed through your sign but it had somewhere specific to be, and that somewhere wasn't where you live.
This is honestly one of my favorite things about astrology because it's so SPECIFIC. It doesn't say "Leo is having a moment." It says 20 degrees Leo. It has an exact address. And if you're not near that address, the eclipse was not there for you this particular time, which does not mean you're excluded, it just means your turn comes at a different degree.
Check what you have near 20 degrees in Leo, Aquarius, Ta**us, or Scorpio. If something's there that's your story. If nothing's there totally okay, the sky has more coming.
What degree are your key placements at? Drop them below, I'm curious! 👇
