A solar eclipse is a supercharged New Moon. Astrologers read it as a sudden opening or fresh start around everyday communication, siblings and short trips (Gemini). It falls near the North Node, traditionally the side of the axis linked to growth and new direction. The Gemini–Sagittarius axis matters most if you have planets or angles within a few degrees of 9°13′ Gemini or Sagittarius.
