Have you heard the hype around Eclipse Season? I love that videos of astrologers with clickbait-type hooks go viral in our current world. When I began my journey as an astrologer, I often received confused looks while patiently describing that astrology is more than horoscopes and instead a cosmic weather forecast. It’s exciting that, 14 years later, the current energies have seeped into the collective conversation.

Here we are in a world where mercury retrograde is basically in the dictionary. It’s so fun to see how humanity has evolved, but at the same time, it’s crucial not to believe all the hype. These cycles simply mirror what’s unfolding within ourselves, because we are made of stars.

Here’s an exert from the Eclipse chapter of my book, Analogies, Energies & Celestial Bodies, which I wrote so you can be your own astrologer:

“Eclipse energy gets to the point, like a chiropractor who enters the room and aligns everything with one movement. Similarly, the eclipse is a straight sprint upwards versus a winding mountain trail. It can be exhausting and intense, but we usually don’t see a chiropractor until we’re sore or in pain. All this to say that the energy of eclipses can be extreme”. -Analogies, Energies & Celestial Bodies by Shannon Hugman
