Hi I have a question re solar eclipse. How do you judge where it will effect someonec chart. For instance do i look at where the moon is transiting? And If someones moon is for ex:in Virgo will the solar eclipse in Sag effect them. Thanks

A solar eclipse affects the Sun so the transiting Sun is important: check whether the transiting Sun is conjunct any natal planet

If someone's moon is for ex: in Virgo the Sag solar eclipse squares their Virgo moon and so could affect them.

The sign ruler forms part of the mix of planets to focus on - so for Virgo Moon consider (1) any aspects to natal Mercury from any transiting planets as well as (2) any aspects made by transiting Mercury to any natal planets

The Sag solar eclipse relates particularly to planets within orb of the eclipse degree that are in Mutable Signs - ie (1) because it is conjunct Sagittarius (2) opposing Gemini and (3) square to Virgo and/or Pisces

In my case the eclipse is;

Conjunct Neptune Retrograde in Sagittarius
Trine Sun, Venus, Vertex in Aries
Sextile Ascendant and Pluto Retrograde in Libra
Sextile Mars, Jupiter in Aquarius

Mercury Retrograde is;

Conjunct Juno and Ceres in Sagittarius
Square Mercury in Pisces
Opposite Saturn and Vesta in Gemini
Trine Chiron in Aries
Sextile Uranus Retrograde in Libra
Semi-Sextile Moon in Capricorn

After doing some checking on Wikipedia, it turns out there will be four eclipses in the same area of Sagittarius over the next 57 years;

November 25th, 2011 - Partial
November 25th, 2038 - Total
November 25th, 2049 - Hybrid
November 24th, 2068 - Partial

So whomever had this eclipse make positive aspects to their important natal planets will probably have a lot of luck over that time period with each eclipse setting the tone for a period of 19 years.

Checking my Ephemeris I note that previously there was a LUNAR eclipse at 3 Sagitarius on 25 May 1994 - good idea to check back to events at that time for resonances with this particular eclipse which although a solar one is also at 3 Sagittarius (Mercury is retro as well currently so its the ideal time for this kind of research)
