Near sunrise on the eastern coast of North America there will be an eclipse on the 29th<\/sup> of March 2025. It has been called a \u2018deep partial eclipse\u2019, for reasons to be outlined. The significance of the eclipse in terms of events will be seen largely in Europe over the next few years. It will be a powerful eclipse and will signal sudden and unexpected changes. For more, read on\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

The eclipse of 29 Mar 2025 is a partial, north node eclipse, the last partial eclipse before the total eclipses of the solar Saros series 149<\/a><\/span>. It is the 21st<\/sup> of 71 eclipses in the series and will be the largest partial eclipse of the series, hence the appellation of the term \u2018deep partial eclipse\u2019. This is thus a waxing series, gaining in strength.<\/span><\/p>\n

The eclipse path is described as follows<\/span><\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe eclipse begins near the northern coast of South America at\u00a08:50 UTC<\/span><\/a>. The deepest part of the eclipse is at 10:47 UTC. The partial eclipse remains visible through the last location \u2013 far northern Siberia \u2013 until 12:43 UTC.

The map for the eclipse path is below. We see from the map that the path of the eclipse goes mainly over the western Atlantic from the northern coast of South America until it crosses over Canada. The maximum eclipse is at 10:49 UTC over far northern Quebec<\/a><\/span>, Canada near Papiit. It is a sunrise eclipse for the East Coast of the US and Canada. At the maximum eclipse it will appear as a thin sliver of sunlight<\/span><\/a> under the Moon\u2019s occultation on the eclipse path. This is largely a trans-oceanic eclipse path. Once it leaves Canada the eclipse strikes an arc over the Arctic and ends in Siberia. The trans-oceanic eclipse path will have significance a bit later here.<\/span><\/p>\n

The chart for the eclipse is below (bigger<\/span><\/a>):<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

There are several outstanding features to the chart, startting with the Mercury\/Neptune conjunction on the 0\u00b0 Aries world view point. In fact, it is the central feature of the chart aside from the eclipse. There is a stellium there, along with Venus and the north node. Given the wide orbs of the Sun and the Moon, those can also be included in the stellium. As the \u2018world view\u2019 point suggests, this eclipse will signal a fundamental change in the way we view our current international relations. We will have more on that in a bit.<\/span><\/p>\n

This Mercury\/Neptune conjunction can (and will) work in two primary fashions. For positive people imbued with a good moral compass it will tend to produce:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe power of imagination, an abundant imaginative realm or sphere, the power of sympathetic and compassionate understanding with regard to other people, intuitive thinking, perception and vision in depth, a grasp of the most subtle and most attenuated correlations or relationships, idealism.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

For people only interested in self-gain and power it will tend to produce:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWrong thinking, faulty judgment, confused ideas and (perceptions or) notions, a rather nervous sensitiveness, insincerity, fantastic visualisations, untruthfulness or the tendency to tell lies, a lack of clarity and self-deception.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

It is this latter tendency that is the most worrisome and we see this happenening even now with the Trump administration\u2019s bellicosity toward Iran and Yemen, for instance. For analysts in the know about Yemen and Iran this administration is getting ready to crack open a hornet\u2019s nest, much to their surprise (and shock). We see this also with the Zionsists, leadership in the EU and the nationalists in Ukraine.<\/span><\/p>\n

The eclipse point is semisquare to Uranus, showing sudden and unexpected changes in relations (being a north node eclipse). Mars is the lord of the eclipse, as there are no planets within a few degrees of the lunation. Mars is still just out-of-bounds and is on its way to its last opposition with Pluto for this year. Mars and Saturn form the base of a soft triangle with Uranus at the apex, while the eclipse point is semisquare to the Mars\/Saturn midpoint, wihich reads as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n
