Partial lunar eclipse in Sagittarius: astrology meaning
A lunar eclipse is a supercharged Full Moon. Astrologers read it as a culmination or release around travel, education and beliefs (Sagittarius), with the Sun opposite in Gemini. It falls near the South Node, traditionally the side of the axis linked to letting go and endings. The Sagittarius–Gemini axis matters most if you have planets or angles within a few degrees of 16°00′ Sagittarius or Gemini.
It is the Full Moon of June 2039.
