Hi Milkyway girl,
The Pre-natal eclipse is the significater of the karmic path, it indicates past life karma that is relevant for this lifetime.It indicates the situations and relationships in this lifetime required for karmic growth. It shows you the way of resolving these karmic problems.
The planet immediately after the pre-natal eclispe in the natal chart(as counted forward through the signs, anti clockwise) is termed the KEY PLANET and it is said to indicate the precending incarnation that bear karmically upon the present one.
Consider aspects from the KEY PLANET these indicate facets of the immediately precending incarnation that bear karmically upon this lifetime.Inharmonious ones indicate karmic problems where you couldn't find resolutions to them and they were left incomplete.It is calling for attention to try to resolve them in the present lifetime.
The seperation between the KEY PLANET and the pre-natal eclispe is said to indicate the amount of time that elasped between the previous decease and the birth, at the rate of one year per degree, or six days two hours per minute.A very rapid reincarnation is testimonial to the ill-prepared for death of an individual.The death may have been an accidental death or a violent
death.
The sign and placement of the KEY PLANET hold clues to the cause of death of the previous life.Afflictions to the KEY PLANET from malefics that are either posited in or lord of the eighth house indicate a sudden death (uranus involved) or an accident (mars) suicide (neptune) or criminal violence (pluto)
Harmonious aspects from the KEY PLANET to planets that are posited in lord of 8th house indicate a relatively peaceful life for which the individual was well prepared.
The sex of the KEY PLANET (moon,venus,neptune and pluto considered female) Sun mars and saturn male, and mercury the gender of the sign in which it is placed.This has been suggested to indicate the gender in the previous lifetime.
Solar eclipses have a cycle of nineteen years, when you are 19yrs old there is usually a solar eclipse at approximately the same degree of the zodiac as your pre-natal eclispe.The return of your pre-natal eclipse almost always causes a dramatic event, i.e move home, marriage, child, new job.
Any thing you undertake under this infuence can change the course of your life.The pre-natal eclipse returns again aged 38yrs.
