Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the lunar surface. In Vedic astrology, the Moon represents the mind, emotions, and the subconscious self. Therefore, when a lunar eclipse occurs, it is said to temporarily disrupt the natural flow of lunar energy, which can manifest as emotional turmoil, inner conflict, and uncertainty.
Lunar eclipses are believed to stir up deep-seated emotions and hidden conflicts. We may experience heightened sensitivity, mood swings, and a sense of uncertainty during this time. On a positive note, lunar eclipses are seen as opportunities for spiritual growth and self-realization. It’s advisable to postpone major decisions, surgeries, or important life events during the period of eclipses.

Lunar Eclipse in Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra
Purva Bhadrapada nakshatra spans from 20° Aquarius to 3°20′ Pisces and is ruled by Jupiter (Guru). It is symbolized by a two-faced man, representing both duality and transformation. The deity of this nakshatra is Aja Ekapada, who is an aspect of Lord Rudra.
The name Ajaikapada literally means “one-footed.” This may represent balance and stability amid the chaos and duality of existence. It suggests the ability to remain grounded and centered in the face of life’s upheavals.
If you have been stuck in life because of bad habits that you have not been able to let go, then this eclipse is the perfect time to get rid of them. This nakshatra gives you the energy to go through this transformation.
The symbolism of a dual faced man represents the inner conflicts and dilemma we all face. So during this eclipse unresolved conflicts may come up inspiring you to face them and solve them. Eclipses are already known to stir up emotions, and in this nakshatra, you may be forced to face deep-seated fears or anxieties. However, this also offers a chance for healing and releasing the baggage we have been carrying from many lifetimes.
