It occurred to me that you might want to know about past Solar eclipses which are still activating losses and changes in your life. These “cosmic recyclers” are always removing parts of our past to make way for a better future. Today I have explanations about all the Solar eclipses of the past 4 years which are active, as well as links to those articles.
Remember each of these has its own unique qualities. Each fell in a house, or the cusp of two houses. Each is in a sign, decan, and degree. Each had its own dispositors and evolutionary configurations which remained in play for years after they happened. Each of these accompanied losses for all of us, some welcome and some profound. Each of these required a different response to what was lost, and so all our planets have been through changes since these went into play.
Take note of where you have 1 Cancer, 24 and 13 Sagittarius, 20 Gemini, 20 and 30 Aries, 11 Taurus, 11 and 22 Libra, and 2 Scorpio, since we’ve all had to let go of many things related to these sectors the past few years. What follows are the specifics of each. You can find out about the eclipse at 11 Libra by going to the articles posted about 4 weeks ago.
A Look Back at Recent Eclipses Still Active
2020
The June 2020 Solstice Eclipse at 1 Cancer has led us to new needs, new relationships, and new life habits. We have found stability and security by moving in new directions beginning then, with cooperative collective pioneering group endeavors front and center. That powerful Solstice eclipse promised new life allegiances, new relationships, and new ways of living our daily existence, letting go of attachments to people and things. It favored those who cultivated spiritual intuition through a social rebirth, with new standards and new truths.

(Parts 1 and 3 have Sabian Symbols, aspects, Jones pattern, and all the other details about its qualities). [These effects last through April 2026.]
The December 2020 Solar Eclipse has helped us see our good fortune from a wider angle, and has given us the power to “read the tea leaves,” seeing deeper and wider truths of people and situations. This has led to forms of “executive power,” setting patterns of social power into motion which have led to greater building endeavors.

2021
The June 2021 eclipse at 20 Gemini brought unique and serendipitous returns, as well as signs and signals of a future still in the making. We’ve seen “the indestructible elements of our spiritual nature” as we’ve mobilized and shared information during a time of being “large diamonds in the cutting process” learning to manifest our Higher Self.

The December 2021 eclipse at 13 Sagittarius has given us glimpses of the future, more enjoyable roles to play, the stirring up of new loves, and rewards for doing what we had to do. This eclipse will ultimately yield us all a transfigured life after a time of purification.

2022
The April 2022 eclipse at 11 Taurus put the focus on our “Garden of Life,” and what needed tending or clearing out because it was cluttering our garden or more trouble than it was worth to maintain those things which were not healthy. This is shutting down parts of our Taurus sector so the void may attract more productive “crops” in the future.

The October 2022 eclipse at 2 Scorpio has helped us release some very powerful memories from the past and open to deeper relationships with people in our lives. We’re all letting go of stuck feelings and finding new ways of enjoying life. This one shut down parts of our Scorpio sector which we no longer need in our magnetic field.

2023
The April 2023 eclipse at 30 Aries has helped us release our old focused area of activity, bringing new freedom, new focus, and a new field of activity where we can happily focus our potential. We now have begun to turn a huge corner, and the losses accompanying this eclipse will bring us to a form of “philosophical completion” as well as a sense of what needs preserving because it is meaningful to us.

The October 2023 eclipse at 22 Libra has cleared away much that would hinder our ability to show care to others who thirst for what we have. This has shut down many old relationships and ideals in the house where we have late Libra.

2024
The April 2024 eclipse at 20 Aries has helped us heal into our Higher Self through new initiatives, new ways of being ourselves, new life directions, and less equivocation in our Libra sector. This shut down old ways of caring so that new expression could come forth. Since the Spring endings have been associated with entry into a life larger than any previous conception, and the ability to protect or the need to be protected in some way.
