Two eclipses, sixteen days apart.

A total solar eclipse on Wednesday 12 August, and a lunar eclipse on Friday 28 August. Where each one lands in your birth chart decides what it means for you — and that is set by your birth date, birth time and birth place.

The next eclipse

  1. Total Solar Eclipse The Moon covers the Sun.
    Eclipses like this open something.
    Wed 12 Aug
  2. Partial Lunar Eclipse Earth’s shadow crosses the Moon.
    These bring something to a head.

Shown in your time (UTC) · global timeline — what is overhead depends on where you stand.

Total along a narrow path over Greenland, Iceland and northern Spain; a partial eclipse is visible across much of Europe, parts of eastern Canada and the northern United States, and North Africa. Totality lasts up to 2 minutes 18 seconds.

At the peak: this one opens things. Keep the hour quiet if you can, and notice what you find yourself wanting to start — the easiest dates to act on it are 8 and 17 August.

Partial Lunar Eclipse · Fri 28 Aug

  5. 07:02 UTCShading fades07:02 UTC

Shown in your time (UTC) · the same moments everywhere on Earth.

Best seen from the Americas — for the US this is the night of Thursday 27 August, with the Moon up coast to coast. Europe and Africa catch it around moonset.

At the peak: this one brings things to a head. Don’t force decisions in the moment — write down what surfaces, and act on the easier days: 23 August and 1 September.

And if it isn’t visible from your city? The reading is the same either way — it is computed from where the eclipse falls in your chart, not from what you can see out the window.

What's Inside
Your Reading.

Read from your full birth chart — your birth date, time and place — not just your star sign.

  • Which Part of Your Life It Affects

    Money, work, home, relationships — we name the one area of your life each eclipse lands in for you.

  • How Strongly You'll Feel It

    A score out of 100, from how closely each eclipse lines up with the planets in your own chart. Closer means stronger.

  • When, Exactly

    The stretch of days it is most likely to peak for you, and the individual dates worth watching inside it.

  • What Happened Last Time

    Eclipses repeat. We find the last one that hit the same spot in your chart, so you have something real to compare this one to.

Read The Sky.
Clarity. No Fluff.

A birth chart wheel divided into twelve segments, with the eclipse points marked

Your Chart Is Split Into 12 Parts

Your chart divides your life into twelve areas — money, work, home and health among them. Each eclipse lands in one of those areas for you, and which one depends on your birth date, time and place.

Eclipses returning to the same point in the sky roughly every eighteen years

Eclipses Come Back Around

The same eclipse returns to almost the same spot in the sky roughly every 18 years — which is how we find the last time this one reached you, and what it stirred then.

It Doesn't All Happen On The Day

An eclipse's effects usually begin a couple of weeks before the date, come to a head in the fortnight after, and can resurface for up to six months. The date is the middle of it, not the whole of it.

Exact.
Personal.
Yours.

Western & Vedic

Positions worked out in both systems, side by side, so it reads the same way you do.

Nothing Pre-Written

Every number comes from your own birth moment and town. Nothing is picked off a list of twelve.

Last Time Round

The last time an eclipse hit the same spot in your chart.

Measured, Not Guessed

All twelve life areas mapped, every planet in your chart placed, and the gap from each one to the eclipse measured to the degree.

How it’s calculated

Nothing in your reading is estimated. Every position behind it is computed, to the degree, from four published astronomical sources — the same ones observatories, planetarium software and almanacs are built on. Here is what each one does for you:

  • Meeus Jean Meeus’ published series for the Sun and Moon Pins each eclipse to its exact point in the sky
  • Standish / JPL NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s planetary orbit tables Places every planet in your birth chart
  • Lahiri India’s official reference point for the sidereal zodiac Lines the Vedic reading up beside the Western one
  • Saros The ancient eclipse cycle — the same eclipse returns every ~18 years Finds the last time this one reached you

Questions,
Answered.

What does it cost?

Your reading is free to start. You get 30 days free, and you can cancel before they are up without paying anything. After that it is $4.99 a month, and you can cancel at any time.

Do I need my exact birth time?

Your birth certificate is the best source. Without the hour we can still place your Sun and the planets — but not your rising sign, and that is what decides which part of your life an eclipse lands in. As close as you can get is better than skipping it.

Is this a horoscope?

No. Nothing in your reading is written in advance. The positions are computed from your birth moment and city, and the wording follows from those figures — which is why two people born the same day get different readings.

How is it calculated?

Solar and lunar positions come from the Meeus series, planetary elements from Standish / JPL, and sidereal figures use the Lahiri ayanamsha. Each eclipse is matched to its repeating ~18-year cycle to find its previous pass.

What are the two August 2026 eclipses?

A total solar eclipse on 12 August 2026 and a partial lunar eclipse on 28 August 2026. A solar eclipse opens something; a lunar eclipse brings something to a head. Your reading covers both.

Where do my birth details go?

Your name, birth date and birth time never leave your device — the reading is computed in your browser. The one exception is your birth town: we look its coordinates up through a mapping service, because your rising sign and houses cannot be worked out without them. Only the place name is sent, never the rest.

Eclipse Astrology

Eclipse Astrology reads the two August 2026 eclipses against your exact birth chart — not your Sun sign — to show which part of your life each one touches, how strongly you’ll feel it, and when.

Every figure is computed from real astronomical positions at your birth moment and city. Nothing is written in advance, which is why two people born the same day get different readings.

Solar and lunar positions come from the Meeus series, planetary elements from Standish / JPL, and the sidereal figures use the Lahiri ayanamsha.

Eclipse Astrology

Your birth details — name, date, time and place — are stored only on your device, and your reading is computed in your browser rather than on a server.

Two things leave it. To find your birth town’s coordinates we send the place name you typed to a mapping service (Open-Meteo) — your rising sign and houses cannot be calculated without them. And if you start a trial, your name and email go to Stripe, our payment provider, to set up billing. Your birth date and birth time are never sent anywhere.

We set no tracking cookies, and beyond those two services we share nothing. Clear your browser storage and your birth details are gone for good.

Eclipse Astrology

Your reading is offered for reflection. The astrology is computed to the degree, but the interpretation is a traditional symbolic framework — not a forecast of certain outcomes, and not a substitute for professional advice.

By using Eclipse Astrology you accept that any decisions you make remain your own.
