If you are born with moon or ascendant in taurus or scoprio, better postpone your travel plans for a week after eclipse, although its effect might be almost negligible.

Do something a little more adventurous in the next two weeks. Try to break your routine so boredom doesn’t set in.
This does not apply to people living in europe, asia, australia and africa where eclipse is not at visible.
