Lunar Eclipse in Taurus

The final eclipse of 2022 illuminates the skies on 11/08 at 6:02am est, 3:02am ptd. Taking place on the Taurus-Scorpio axis, this moon is the continuation of the eclipses we saw earlier this year. Taurus is ruled by Venus, which means naturally this moon can highlight themes to do with our values, finances, and relationships. The sun in Scorpio opposes the Taurus moon, providing us the opportunity to reflect on where we may have given up our power in these areas, in hopes to receive more control over a situation. Power struggles have been an ongoing theme throughout the collective as we are under the Scorpio sun, but the lessons we’ve learned from 6 months ago when the solar eclipse in Taurus took place, are now returning to see if the wisdom has been applied. For those who may have been trying to maintain their grip on situations they’ve outgrown, this full moon brings these cycles to an end. 

The north node and Uranus conjunct this moon, which further pushes us out of our comfort zone and into spaces that align with our destiny. At first, these changes can seem random or catch us by surprise, but the truth is we’ve been preparing for this catapult for over 6 months! Mercury and Venus both sit in Scorpio with the sun, which means some of these changes could also be taking place in our social circles, contracts and other affairs we’ve mingled with others. Saturn in Aquarius squares off to the Taurus-Scorpio axis, while Mars in Gemini (who recently stationed retrograde) squares off to Neptune and Jupiter in Pisces. We may not be able to see the vision clearly just yet, but moving forward is absolutely necessary if we are to ensure the reaping of our blessings. 

The south node in Scorpio is also activated at this time, which means all sorts of temptation can rise, just as we’re about to make our exit. In order to receive the miracles of this eclipse, we’ll have to tap into our intuition and apply discernment carefully. Whatever steps we take that feels like heavy lifting, is most likely a step out of alignment. This moon reminds us that less is more, all we have to do is remain grounded and rest to receive. 

Aries

The illusions that have been lingering over the season are finally coming to a close. This full moon brings clarity and the necessary shift in direction, the spell is finally broken!

Taurus

Blessed lunar return! With this moon taking place in your sign, you are the most effected, which means you’re probably going through the most changes and receiving the most blessings. The heightened synchronicities are confirmation that you are exactly where you need to be, pay attention to these and your dreams. They can help ground you during this heightened energetic time.

Gemini 

Heightened emotions and overwhelmingness can take place under this moon, as your ruling planet opposes the moon and squares off to various celestial bodies. Changes within your relationships, values and creative projects could be taking place. 

Cancer

You really enjoy your space and comfort zone, but this eclipse ensures that a change in this space is going to happen. Don’t be surprised if shocking news arrives, or if you enter a major tower moment! Sometimes when we resist change, the universe brings us closer to it until we have no choice. 

Leo

With the resistance still heightened for you, you could feel as though your back is against a wall. The truth is, what is taking place cannot be controlled, so you’re better off surfing the incoming tidal waves. If you feel the need to force things your way, you’re doing too much! Speak your intentions clearly and let the universe do its work. 

Virgo 

This moon takes place in your element of earth, so the intense changes going on probably won’t phase you as much. You’ve been understanding the flow of recharging and reflection for a while. Continue to lean on your antidote and grounding practices. The incoming changes guarantee positive shifts for the better.

Libra 

Your intuition could be getting an upgrade at this time, as your ruling planet connects with Neptune and Jupiter in Pisces while sitting opposite to the moon. The information can be a lot to handle, but that doesn’t mean you have to process all of it at once. Journal your thoughts and dreams at this time, and see how this practice can help you realize everything is fine. Harsh reality checks only take place if you’re existing in delusion. 

Scorpio

This full moon brings major changes for you of course, as it takes place on your axis. The transformation you have been going through this season are undeniable, and they’re not over yet! Expect upgrades in your relationships, business affairs, creative outburst within your passions and more. All of this sounds good (and it is!) but know that you cannot do everything at once. How will you make space for these upgrades? It’s time to do what you do best, shed some skin.

Sagittarius 

The cosmos are still suggesting that you remain seated, and not disturb the magic taking place behind the scenes. However while you embody this stillness, an abundance of downloads and inspiration are arriving. Just because you aren’t launching anything new, doesn’t mean you can’t create something new! Express the inspiration and give it space to come to life. 

Capricorn 

You may have a huge desire to put people in their place this week, but know they are not worth the exchange. Your energy is your power, and it is too expensive for you to waste. Recognize when certain situations are sent to test you! Take the week to rest and recharge, while catching up on personal affairs (yknow, the things you do outside of work?). 

Aquarius 

This eclipse can bring some discomfort, as there are an abundance of friction in the cosmos with your natal placements  here. However you know that your ruling planet Saturn always has a plan, even if you have no idea what it is (yet). Your second ruling planet (Uranus) is what steals the show and shines during this cosmic phenomena, as it encourages change and a different perspective of ongoing matters. Trust where your intuition flows and highlights to you. It’s almost go time!

Pisces 

This eclipse is giving you the opportunity to speak up about how you feel and take up the space you’ve been trying to share with others. You tend to fall into the role of “supportive friend” or “group healer” very easily, which often times means you’re also taking on unnecessary baggage. The universe could be delivering some amazing opportunities to you at this time (yes even during this chaos!), and wants to see what you’ll do with it. Will you finally keep your blessings to yourself, or will you share them prematurely, leading to their decay and banishment?
