On November 8th, 2022 we have a powerful light show. There is a Full Lunar Eclipse beginning two minutes before the Full Moon arrives at the exact opposite sign and degree as the Sun, at 3:02 AM PST. The Eclipse will be visible from North America, and begins at 3 AM PST, and should culminate around 6 AM. The Moon is at 16 degrees Taurus 1 minute, and the Sun is stationed at 16 degrees Scorpio 1 minute.
As we remember what we were wishing to create when the Moon was New in Taurus, back on April 30th of this year, we had the first Eclipse of the Sun in Taurus. We were being asked by the energies to look at our morals and standards, our finances and possessions, and to move towards our objectives with strength; fearless. Now, 6 months later, what has become of those? Has fear been allowed to stop you in your tracks, or have you slow but surely moved toward your goals? Now with the Sun in Scorpio, the issue of our values becomes very clear. Do we share them or bury them?
There has been so much spoken and written about the Elections of November 8th, good and bad, and here we have a Full Moon Eclipse happening on the very day! What a set up.
The Sun and Moon are joined by many planets to strengthen the power behind this opposition. The Sun in Scorpio is a powerful sign, very mysterious and deep, and somewhat taboo. Scorpio rules desire in the old school of astrology, and with desire come all the consequences. It can be a sign of extremes, when unbalanced, and great power and depth when balanced. It is a Fixed Water Sign, committed in its emotional responses. The waters run deep in Scorpio and can dredge up old wounds and issues to the surface to be dealt with. The Sun is joined by Mercury and Venus in Scorpio. Mercury in this sign, ruling the mind and communications, can affect one to tend to see things from their perspective only and to be rather subjective. Venus adds a strong attachment and at times possessiveness to loved ones. Watch out for jealousy and bad behavior if this is the case.
Opposite these is the Moon in Taurus, with an exact conjunction to Uranus in Taurus. The Moon in this sign is even tempered and peace loving, not easily ruffled and rarely given to emotional displays. Though gentle and not easily provoked, this Moon is tremendously stubborn and will resist any change which requires an emotional adjustment, such as changes in your home life or marriage. This Fixed Earth Sign seeks security and loyalty in love, and is extremely devoted to family and friends, providing a warm, nurturing atmosphere for them. With the planet Uranus joining the Moon we will crave emotional excitement and freedom, which the roller coaster ride of Election Day should provide. The Scorpio/Taurus axis asks us all how we feel about our present circumstances, and are we willing to do the work to fix what needs fixing? With these extreme energies the safest way to go is to dig deep for our truths and act on them. Not in a disruptive way, but a pledge to do the right thing.
Add to this a T-Square between this collective opposition and Saturn in Aquarius. Saturn in this sign is distrustful of groups and has a cynical attitude toward society. You can feel like you must do something or be something other than what you are in order to receive approval and acceptance from others. You’ll be very sensitive to criticism and easily feel left out or neglected, and though you may appear cool or distant, you actually care very much about being included. Self doubt can plague you now. Allow this energy to balance out these extreme feelings, as Aquarius is a Fixed Air Sign. It gives us the opportunity to step back and see things from a detached point of view. It takes us through to a new understanding of what is taking place. So, with the heavy emotions that come with the Full Moon, dial it back to a more inspired willingness to see things as they are and not look to blame others for our disappointments.
Our intuition will be wide open with this event. If you have the opportunity to be awake, or, to review and do a ceremony the night before when the Moon is full and bright, you won’t be sorry. The veil will be so thin we can access the most profound insights and connect heart to heart with ALL THAT IS. In fact, doing this the night before the election will set the tone for a very powerful Full Moon Eclipse as you sleep. Step into your new feelings as you awaken, using these powerful planets and luminaries to help clear the path for transformation.
