Reading the 2027 eclipses
Eclipses arrive in pairs or triples a fortnight apart, because they need the Sun and Moon near the same lunar node — which is why 2027 has 5 rather than a steady one a month. A solar eclipse is a new moon with the node involved; a lunar eclipse is a full moon with the same condition. Astrologically they are read as lunations with the volume turned up, not as separate omens.
The degree column is what makes any of this personal. An eclipse only reaches you if it lands near something in your own chart. Cast your free natal chart and check the degrees above against your placements.

Frequently asked questions
When are the eclipses in 2027?
There are 5 eclipses in 2027: February 6, 2027 (Annular solar, 17° Aquarius); February 20, 2027 (Penumbral lunar, 1° Virgo); July 18, 2027 (Penumbral lunar, 25° Capricorn); August 2, 2027 (Total solar, 9° Leo); August 17, 2027 (Penumbral lunar, 24° Aquarius). All times US Eastern.
Is there a total solar eclipse in 2027?
Yes — August 2, 2027 at 9° Leo, maximum eclipse 6:07 AM ET. Totality is only visible from a narrow path on the Earth's surface; everywhere else sees a partial eclipse or nothing at all.
Why do the eclipse degrees matter astrologically?
An eclipse is read as a lunation with unusual weight, and the degree is what makes it personal. An eclipse at 9° Leo is significant for someone with a planet or angle near 9° Leo and largely background noise for everyone else.
How were these dates calculated?
Each maximum-eclipse moment is computed directly from the Swiss Ephemeris and then localized to US Eastern Time. The dates are not copied from another calendar.
