The Emotional Effects of this Lunar Eclipse on You...

Change is the only constant thing in the Universe, and eclipses are all about ‘change.’ Sometimes changes are welcome and sometimes they are not. In fact, change is also the reason behind the bad reputation of eclipses, since they are generally believed to bring in quite unthought-of changes in our lives.
But, we must not forget that natural phenomena also bring about positive changes in our thinking, behaviour and actions. A partial Lunar Eclipse, a spectacular natural phenomenon, will occur on August 16, 2008 at 1:06 a.m. and will end at 4:15 a.m. This will be the second of the two Lunar Eclipses in the year 2008. It will be visible over most of Asia, Africa, Australia and South America. Let’s see what changes this eclipse will bring in our lives.

A Lunar Eclipse is associated with ‘emotions’ and ‘feelings.’According to astrology, moon signifies emotions, feelings, luxuries, music, art, beauty, character and fame. It affects us mentally, as a result of the change in the electro-magnetic energy during the eclipse. It is best to have a positive attitude about these changes.
