Solar Eclipse 2020: Zodiac signs that will be affected the most
Timesofindia bring to you the predictions of how Solar Eclipse 2020 will affect all the zodiac signs in the most intense and negative way.
Solar Eclipse for Gemini
Geminis will face extreme difficulty during this time as the aura during this time will certainly push them down. However, Geminis have to rise up to this occasion by digging deeper and expanding their horizons to search for ways to stand up back again. You can’t ignore your issues, because the more you do, the more they can grasp on your opportunities.
Solar Eclipse for Sagittarius
You might face an identity crisis because you have been craving for some much-needed change for the past few months. You might also find yourself severely shaken up by the situation around you, causing trauma and despair. Your lack of physical or emotional activity can also be the answer towards not being able to succeed in anything. Start experimenting and you will see a change.
Solar Eclipse for Pisces
Your professional life might take a hit as it is possible that you’ll experience some shifts in your work that can alter your career. This time is also very intense as you will not expect the slightest hint of a possible opportunity coming your way. This time can get nerve-wracking because everyone will be watching you and analysing how you would perform under pressure.
Solar Eclipse for Virgo
You may experience a huge shift in your emotional state as this time will critically analyse your skills in handling difficult situations. Long-forgotten issues can come up once again, hindering your feelings. You might also feel distant from others, but if you push yourself, you can reconcile with the feelings that have kept you distant from your loved ones.
Solar Eclipse for Aries
There will be difficulties and delays coming your way. You shouldn’t risk taking any step without caution because you might just face additional obstacles. Proceed with caution and reconsider anything before you make a decision or say something. You may not even get desired results but don’t be bummed about it. Instead, continue to put efforts.
Next year, that is, in 2021, two Solar Eclipses will occur. The first one during the mid-year, on June 10, and the second on December 4. The Solar Eclipse in June next year will be an annular one. |
