The Power of Self Care During the Hybrid Solar Eclipse
Are you ready for the upcoming hybrid solar eclipse in Aries? This rare astronomical event is a powerful time to manifest your deepest desires, let go of what is not supporting the beauty of who you truly are, connect with your authentic Self and the energy of complete transformation and rebirth! However, it’s also a time when emotions can be heightened and you may need to take extra care of yourself.
March 21, 2023 brought us the first new moon of the astrological year in fiery Aries at 0 degrees, 48 minutes and on April 19th we are blessed with another new moon in Aries. Two in a row!
This current new moon and hybrid solar eclipse is happening in Aries at 29 degrees, literally just minutes away from Taurus, which is considered an Anoretic critical degree. This indicates completion and may leave us feeling burnt out and exhausted.
This is a high stakes solar eclipse, ruled by Mars, that offers us the power (and challenges us) to actually jump timelines! That’s some potent energy! This very powerful eclipse energy sets the energetic cycle for us for the next 6 months. To offer perspective, our new moons set the lunar cycle for the month ahead, so we have a lot at stake in setting the energetic tone for the next 6 months.
This rare and significant cosmic event offers a powerful opportunity for us to let go of the old stories, close out what needs closing, manifest our dream lives, alchemize all of our pain into power and start over in the best way possible! It also brings a lot of intense energy, that can make us feel anxious, stressed and irritable. We believe self care is essential during this rare and powerful hybrid solar eclipse to:
- Manage Intense Emotions: Solar eclipses are known to have a potent energetic impact on people. During this hybrid solar eclipse in Aries, you may experience intense emotions, such as anxiety, fear, stress or excitement. Self care practices such as meditation, journaling, and spending time in nature can help you ground, lower stress levels and connect with your inner Self, which can be particularly beneficial during this time.
- Promote Overall Well-Being and Lower Stress: Self care can help you manage stress, promote relaxation, and enhance your overall well-being. During this hybrid solar eclipse, it’s essential to prioritize your self care practices to maintain your physical, emotional and mental health. You can try activities like meditation, yoga, aromatherapy or taking a relaxing bath to help you unwind and de-stress.
- Enhance Resilience: Self care practices can help you build resilience in coping with the challenges and stresses that this intense energy period can bring. By taking care of yourself, you can respond from a place of centeredness, rather than react emotionally. You’ll feel empowered to handle stress, surprises and challenges with greater ease.
We invite you to practice nourishing and grounding self care during this intense period of energy, as a way to manage the intensity, minimize the stress and stay centered. We have created a Solar Eclipse Self Car Journal + Guidebook to support you, that includes grounding techniques, calming breath work, supportive tools and many journal exercises and prompts to nurture your self awareness, self care and manifesting practices. We hope you love it as much as we do!
Love,
Aurora + Crystal
