THE UNKNOWN QUANTITY: The universe usually likes to keep us guessing, a fact that most predictive astrologers will quickly acknowledge. There is always an unknown factor involved in any planetary event; this is particularly true of an eclipse, especially a total eclipse, which tends to involve even more of a "surprise factor" than a partial eclipse.
Unpredictability is a quality for which the planet Uranus is also famous. This is why many astrologers suggest that we "expect the unexpected" when Uranus is involved in planetary activity.
Our eclipse this Tuesday can thus be considered VERY Uranian, since it is both a Total Lunar Eclipse and the Moon will be closely aligned with Uranus for the event. In fact, given how the chart for the lunation looks, we'll need to consider it somewhat like playing the game "52-Card Pickup." The only thing we can count on, is that if we throw a deck of cards up into the air, how and where the individual cards land will be haphazard and very hard to predict ahead of time.
