The full moon on July 27, 2018 at 4° Aquarius is a total lunar eclipse. This lunar eclipse is mainly influenced by Mars, making it an emotionally challenging eclipse. Mars anger and frustration could easily turn to reckless actions because of a harsh aspect to Uranus. A gentler influence from Saturn will make it a little easier to calm down, and some fixed stars give patience and decisiveness in a crisis. However, these same stars can also cause aggression and emotional problems.
Remaining calm in a crisis is the key to dealing with this overly emotional lunar eclipse. This is particularly important for the next two weeks while the July 12 solar eclipse remains active. It brings the potential for a crisis with your self-esteem, a relationship or an event, and distress triggered by a deeply buried subconscious fear of disaster.
The July 2018 lunar eclipse is a rare central lunar eclipse, where part of the Moon passes through the center of the Earth’s shadow. This powerful total lunar eclipse is also called a blood moon because of the reddish color caused by light being refracted by Earth’s atmosphere.

Lunar Eclipse Conjunct Mars
Moon conjunct Mars is the strongest influence on the lunar eclipse and will make you feel strong, sexy and brave. Your quick instincts and fighting spirit can be used to defend your home and family. However, it will be difficult to control your strong emotions. If you start to feel irritable, impatient, bossy or mean, it is a signal that you need to back off and try to relax. You are likely to lose your temper or act irrationally if you stay in an agitated state. If you can’t calm down, then try to apply your energy to something or someone you really care about. This could range from cleaning your house to giving a loved one an invigorating massage.
Mars retrograde creates an excessive amount of sexual tension and frustration which is difficult to express. Mars retrograde means you should think twice before acting.

If so, events will force you to admit you have some anger management issues. This too, could be a very painful experience. The Moon and Mars are less than a degree apart, at 3° and 4 in Aquarius – opposite the Sun! Your instincts are lightning fast!
