A bruja's guide to navigate the solar eclipse season
The Eclipse season is a season in which the larger layers occur internally and externally. Indigenous peoples from America, the Caribbean and Latin America have respect for the country, sun and moon during this rebirth and transformation. Traditions that have been practiced for thousands of years are honored and create a strong connection between the physical and spiritual world.
The networking of all things is a strong belief within many indigenous groups as a way of life. The Eclipse season is a time when this connection can be strengthened and confirmed to the mind. The energy is powerful whether it is a sun or lunar eclipse, partially or full. Modern times have separated from the networking of all things that are fundamental beliefs of the indigenous peoples. We can regain it by honoring the spiritual traditions that are passed on by our ancestors over generations.
A total lunar eclipse on March 14 will follow the full moon in Virgo's summit and will be visible in the USA and South America as well as in parts of Europe and Africa. On March 29, we welcome a partially solar eclipse that coincides with the new moon in the ram. This creates an excellent time to manifest and gather with others in the community in order to increase the vibration here on earth.
What is a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse is a dance between the sun, moon and earth. The earth takes the lead, moves between the sun and the moon and throws a shadow on the moon. Lunar eclipses, whether partially or full, only occur during a full moon that generates increased energy. Spiritually, lunar eclipses are viewed as a transformative time. It brings the shady sides from us to the surface to heal too.
What is a solar eclipse?
A solar eclipse is a different kind of astrological dance when the moon goes between the sun and earth. Partial solar eclipses occur when the moon only blocks part of the sun. It throws a shadow on parts of the earth whether the moon blocks the sun completely or partially. The energy can be felt on our planet. Like a lunar eclipse, solar sternets have spiritual importance as powerful transformative times. Since the moon is currently blocking the sun, we can honor the shadow plant, which is so essential for spiritual growth and healing.
Which indigenous spiritual rituals are carried out during a lunar eclipse?
Indigenous people often practiced deep self -observation during lunar eclipses. Many traditions are fasting, the abstention of sexual activities, the interior, prayer and meditation. Their silence was an opportunity to show respect for the important cosmic changes and renovations that take place during the lunar eclipse.
Palo Santo and Copal are great during this time. You can even wipe your floors with a mixture of warm water, Florida water and rue water. Rue or Ruda has been used for centuries to remove evil energy from rooms and people. It cannot be consumed, but is quite powerful as a cleaning agent or in spiritual baños or limpia.
After their space was cleaned of negativity, stagnating energy and blockages to joy and inner peace, it is time to fill their home with gratitude and love. Consider gathering everyone who lives together at home to meditate and pray. Hold your hands in a circle and switch on the energy generated. Breathing deeply and even long hugs can improve the flow of energy in your home, community and around the world. It starts in us and will of course flow outwards.
Which indigenous spiritual rituals are carried out during a solar eclipse?
Solar starry is honored and respected in a similar way to lunar eclipses. Some indigenous groups believe that during the solar eclipse it shows respect for the symbolic death and the rebirth of the sun. Other traditions are the free during the solar eclipse and dancing under the sun to celebrate its lifelong energy or to call the name ceremonies to honor new life. When the moon throws its shadow over the light and captures the planet in the current darkness, silence, prayer and meditation, the sun's rays resign.
In western civilization we often wear safety glasses to marvel at the solar eclipses. But indigenous traditions believe the opposite. Indigenous groups did not look as a sign of respect for this display of the life cycles between light and dark, but turned inwards to connect with it on a spiritual level and to leave the energy of the solar eclipse through them.
The upcoming partially solar eclipse of March 29 would be a great time to celebrate when the sun is shining and then returns to silence when the moon throws its shade. Consider yourself a plant that survived the winter. You may have to crop the parts of yourself that have died or have died. This could be old ways of thinking, patterns or even people and places that they may have escaped. Dine deeply to find the parts of you that are no longer needed and remove them so that the other parts can become strong and healthy. You could write a list that celebrates your journey that you become and what you have to let go or remove to be completely reborn during the solar eclipse, which will follow the spring equipment on March 20.
