Native Americans called this lunation the Full Strawberry Moon as strawberry picking season peaks during this month. Europeans called this the Rose Moon. The total lunar eclipse will be visible across much of South America, Europe, Africa and Asia. Totality will last an unusually long length of time: 1 hour 40 minutes. (SPACE.com)

Perhaps the meridian of longitude along which SF, Portland, Seattle, Victoria, and Vancouver lie, has already been sensitized by the Moon's Nodes of the June 1 partial solar eclipse(11 Gemini) which fell on this same meridian- roughly 122 degrees west. The transit of Mars to the lunar eclipse degree(24 Sagittarius) around July 25 might then be a timing trigger for local events on or near 122 west.

My astrology friend Peter Stockinger mentioned a possible linkage between the June 15 eclipse and illnesses. This is an interesting observation given the worrisome and deadly e-coli outbreak in Europe that began late May which has killed about 20 people thus far, and sent many more to the hospital seriously ill.

How will this eclipse affect a pisces with a gemini moon?
Hello Margica,
If your Sun or Moon are near the 24th degree of their respective signs, the lunar eclipse could be a climactic event. But otherwise it's probably not too important. The houses where the eclipse Moon and Sun fall are the areas most affected and open to change.

Hi David,
my IC is 24°Sag and I have Jupiter at 25° Leo + Venus at 24° Aries, so it seems like this may be an important eclipse for me. Any insights? Thanks! :)

Well Roni, the IC pertains to home, family, and personal matters. But in your chart that point is part of a favorable grand trine in the fire element. As the eclipsed full moon is at the IC, and the Sun on the Midheaven- you might consider the balance between professional and personal affairs in your life now.
Cheers!
