Partial lunar eclipse in Aquarius: astrology meaning
A lunar eclipse is a supercharged Full Moon. Astrologers read it as a culmination or release around friends, groups and future goals (Aquarius), with the Sun opposite in Leo. It falls near the South Node, traditionally the side of the axis linked to letting go and endings. The Aquarius–Leo axis matters most if you have planets or angles within a few degrees of 5°02′ Aquarius or Leo.
