Solar eclipse August 2, 2027 astrology: the total eclipse at 9° Leo mapped to your birth chart. Your house, your aspects, computed free from the Swiss Ephemeris.
In Leo, the traditional solar-eclipse themes are visibility, creative work, romance, leadership and the courage to be seen. This is the second August Leo solar eclipse in a row: the total eclipse of August 12, 2026 fell at 20° Leo, and this one lands ten degrees earlier at 9°55′ Leo, usually the same house of your chart or the one beside it. Wherever 9° Leo sits for you is where astrologers would say a roughly six-month chapter opens on August 2, 2027; if the 2026 eclipse marked that territory, this one returns to it. The calculator above finds the exact house for your birth time.
The path of totality runs from southern Spain across North Africa, including Luxor in Egypt, to the Arabian Peninsula, with the Moon’s shadow lingering for more than six minutes near the centerline: the longest land totality for decades in either direction. Eclipses this long become global events far beyond astrology circles. Seeing it is geography; what it touches in your chart is the astrology.
This eclipse falls about a degree and a half from the True South Node at 11°29′ Leo, and Venus stands nearby at 7°16′ Leo. South-node eclipses are traditionally read as culminating or releasing rather than beginning: something ripens, completes or asks to be let go at the house it touches. That reading is attributed tradition, not prediction; the computed part is the placement, and the calculator above shows exactly where 9° Leo and that node axis cross your chart.
For readers researching the chart of the event itself: the Sun–Moon conjunction is exact at 10:04 UTC on August 2, 2027, with Sun and Moon together at 9°55′ Leo, about 1.5° from the True South Node at 11°29′ Leo, inside the band where a new moon becomes a solar eclipse. The rest of the sky at that instant: Mercury 29°56′ Cancer, Venus 7°16′ Leo, Mars 10°42′ Libra, Jupiter 1°30′ Virgo, Saturn 27°50′ Aries, Uranus 9°09′ Gemini, Neptune 6°31′ Aries retrograde, Pluto 5°52′ Aquarius retrograde. Positions are geocentric tropical longitudes from the Swiss Ephemeris; the calculator above maps them into your natal houses.
The eclipse falls at 9°55′ Leo, so 9° Leo is the point to check against your chart. A solar eclipse is read at the Sun–Moon conjunction degree; this calculator computes the exact new-moon moment from the Swiss Ephemeris rather than quoting a table, then places that degree into your natal houses.
The Sun–Moon conjunction is exact at 10:04 UTC on August 2, 2027. Totality runs from southern Spain across North Africa to the Arabian Peninsula, with maximum durations of more than six minutes near the centerline, which makes it one of the longest totalities of the century over land.
Near the centerline, totality lasts over six minutes, several times the length of a typical total solar eclipse and the longest stretch of land totality for decades in either direction. Astrologically, many traditions read a longer totality as a heavier weighting of the same reading: the eclipse degree, 9° Leo, still carries the meaning, and the calculator above maps it to your houses.
Run your chart above. The strongest signals astrologers look for: the eclipse landing conjunct, opposite or square your natal Sun, Moon, Ascendant or personal planets within about 3 degrees, or falling in an angular house. Leo Suns, Moons and risings born near the 9° mark are the most directly touched, along with early-degree Aquarius, Taurus and Scorpio placements by hard aspect.
The Sun–Moon conjunction is exact at 10:04 UTC on August 2, 2027, with both at 9°55′ Leo. The rest of the sky at that instant: Mercury 29°56′ Cancer, Venus 7°16′ Leo, Mars 10°42′ Libra, Jupiter 1°30′ Virgo, Saturn 27°50′ Aries, Uranus 9°09′ Gemini, Neptune 6°31′ Aries retrograde, Pluto 5°52′ Aquarius retrograde, True Node 11°29′ Aquarius. All values are geocentric tropical longitudes from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same engine the calculator above runs on your chart.
