These Are The 4 Zodiac Signs Who Will Thrive Under The Libra Lunar Eclipse

It’s time, friends—the 2024 Eclipse Season has begun!

On March 25th at 3:00 A.M. EST, the Full Moon in Libra—which is also a Lunar Eclipse—will occur. This eclipse kicks off the first of 2024 and the first of multiple pairs of Aries/Libra eclipses that will introduce transformation and be the catalyst for significant change in our personal lives and our relationships. 

Full moons are associated with the closing of chapters and often illuminate areas in our lives that experience change and endings to make room for new things. Lunar eclipses, which are when the Earth casts its shadow on the Moon, often increase that experience, and the energy feels greater (it’s important to note that eclipses are not great times for manifesting or setting inventions, as the energy is pretty unpredictable compared to your average full moon).

With this first eclipse taking place in Libra, we are focused on how we connect to those around us. Libra is often associated with partnerships—romantic, friendship, and even business. The eclipse wants us to consider our needs and the needs of others to make room for all of them. Neglecting our needs for others’ sake or selfishly only caring about ourselves doesn’t get us nearly as far. 

Given the intensity of Eclipse season, even the signs that will benefit the most from this Eclipse may still undergo some turbulent moments—but the goal is that eventually, it will lead to a better path in your life—one you may not have even realized you wanted. The Eclipse will affect all the zodiac signs, but a few might benefit more from its effects than others.

Check the signs below (Sun and Rising!) to see which zodiac signs will most likely thrive under the Libra Lunar Eclipse. 

Libra

The Lunar Eclipse is appearing in your 1st House of Self and Identity, meaning some significant changes are underway for you, Libra! If you’ve felt a disconnect between your inner and outward presentation, you may feel more pushed than ever to change your appearance. This is also the start of a chapter for you to learn how to balance your needs with the needs of others—how to not lose yourself under the weight of caving into everyone else’s desires. Your considerate nature is a gift, but forcing yourself smaller to accommodate space for others without allowing yourself to grow and thrive isn’t the way to live your life. There are ways to advocate for yourself without steamrolling everyone else, and it’s time you step into your diplomatic power to fight for yourself.

Aries

Your partnerships may be tested during this time, Aries, but this doesn’t spell doom for them (unless they aren’t healthy or good for you). As the Lunar Eclipse lights up your 7th House of Partnerships, your bonds and connections will experience pressure to see if they hold up under the weight. Are these people you can rely on when things get difficult? Do they have your best interests at heart? Additionally, this is a time for you to step more fully into the role of a better partner and/or friend. You know what you need in your relationships, but this is a period where you learn to strike a balance between your needs and the needs of others. While the journey may not always be smooth sailing, you’ll know who is in your corner by the end. 

Capricorn

As the Lunar Eclipse moves through your 10th House of Career and Public Image, you may take this opportunity to reexamine your career path or major life goals. If you have been doubting or uncertain about your current path, this eclipse may serve as the push you need to make that change. If you’re satisfied with where you are, you may be called to take on a bigger role and prove yourself—while you may feel the pressure, you are more than capable of coming through and showing your value. You may deal with unexpected responsibilities thrown your way, but keeping a level head and strong focus can help pull you through and remind everyone of the asset you are. 

Gemini

It’s all fun and games, but some transformation is still heading your way with this Lunar Eclipse, Gemini. As the Moon transits your 5th House of Creativity and Romance, you may notice that casual love affairs may be tested, or playful connections may feel a little more serious, which can let you know whether they are worth your time. This period may also mark new creative ideas and inspiration for you to take and do what you do best. If children are something you’re focused on, this period could start the process of making that vision a reality, or if you have children, you may notice them starting to go through changes/come into their own. While sometimes you may want to kick back and relax, this period will change how you approach pleasure and joy, and you’ll be better off for it.
