I am curious about the following eclipses in my Draconic chart:

Dec 31, 2009 LUNAR ECLIPSE
Lunar Eclipse in 10'14 Cancer
oppose my Draconic Venus in 11'17 Capricorn in 3rd
oppose my Draconic Mercury in 7'51 Capricorn in 3rd

Lunar Nodes in 21'04 Capricorn/Cancer Stationary
conjunct/oppose my Draconic Neptune in 21'18 Capricorn in 3rd

Jan 15, 2010 SOLAR ECLIPSE (Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's birthday)

Solar Eclipse in 25'01 Capricorn
Venus in 25'40 Capricorn
conjunct my Draconic Jupiter in 27'47 Capricorn in 3rd/4th
oppose my Draconic Saturn in 24'38 Cancer in 9th

Lunar Nodes in 21'07 Capricorn/Cancer Stationary
conjunct/oppose my Draconic Neptune in 21'18 Capricorn in 3rd

I also include the the Lunar Nodes because I read that they figure into eclipses.

"The nodes are also known as the Dragon's Head (Caput Draconis), the North Node, and Dragon's Tail (Cauda Draconis), the South Node, although in Indian Astrology they are called Rahu and Ketu respectively. In mythology, this Dragon sought to devour the Sun and Moon, so causing the eclipses. The North Node, the Dragon's Head, is called the ascending node, because it marks the point where the Moon crosses the ecliptic from southern to northern celestial latitudes, and the South Node is called the descending node, marking the descent from northern to southern latitudes. The North and South Nodes are an axis, always in perfect opposition to each other, so the signs are affected in pairs (Aries/Libra; Pisces/Virgo; Aquarius/Leo etc). All the planets have nodes except the Sun and the Earth, but the Moon's Nodes are by far the most significant, in terms of human destiny."

“It is absolutely the perfect name,” Dr. Brown said, given the continuing discord among astronomers and the public over whether Pluto should have retained its planetary status.

In mythology, Eris ignited discord that led to the Trojan War.
