What does the great eclipse of August 2, 2027 mean?
The total solar eclipse of August 2, 2027 will be visible as total in southern Spain, North Africa and the Middle East, and it ranks among the longest of the 21st century: at its peak, totality lasts more than six minutes, according to NASA calculations. In astrology it falls in Leo, so it is linked to themes of identity, leadership, creativity and self-love, especially for Leo, Aquarius, Taurus and Scorpio.
The slow planets: the backdrop of the year
- Jupiter, the planet of expansion, moves through Leo until July 26 (joy, creativity, the spotlight) and then through Virgo (order, health, work well done).
- Saturn stays in Aries: it asks for discipline with projects that are just getting started.
- Uranus continues in Gemini: changes in communication, technology and the way we learn.
- Neptune stays in Aries and Pluto in Aquarius: slow, collective transformations.
