In Episode 423, astrologers Nick Dagan Best and Chris Brennan discuss some of the most remarkable examples of solar or lunar eclipses coinciding with a major or significant event in world history, leading us to uncover the profound implications of eclipses in astrology.
The purpose of the episode was to compile a list of about 20 examples of a major event in history occurring within days of a solar or lunar eclipse.
By studying what eclipses have been in the past, we can learn a lot about what eclipses actually mean in astrology, and from this we can better understand how they can be used to predict the future.
We begin the episode with a brief introduction to the astronomy of eclipses, then discuss how in ancient times solar and lunar eclipses were traditionally seen as negative omens, whereas in modern times they are seen as representing great endings and beginnings.
We also discuss how eclipses were viewed in ancient Mesopotamia and how the astrological tradition itself began to develop as a result of a series of eclipses that coincided with the deaths of three kings.
After that, we’ll spend the rest of the episode exploring a collection of examples where eclipses coincide with important historical turning points. Through this comprehensive analysis, we show that eclipses have not only been present at many important moments in history, but also coincide with important turning points in modern global events.
