Scorpio Lunar Eclipse
May 5th, 10:34 am PT
~~~
Mercury Retrograde!
April 21st - May 14th , 2023

~~

Endings...
New Beginnings...
The Uncomfortable STILL part in between.
If we don't Continue to Evolve...
We may as well be Dead.

How are you feeling?  Collectively, we are going through a major time of transformation. Offering yourself Compassion, is a powerful way to allow yourself to feel, without getting stuck in your feelings. Eclipses stir the pot, they are event generators, they bring revelations!

It's time to start to prepare for the next phase.

​

For the last year, the Eclipses have been in the Taurus-Scorpio Axis encouraging us to face our shadow (FEARS, destruction, need for control, envy, blame, low self-worth) as we move toward healing old wounds. The Eclipses in May & November of 2022 brought attention to our health, our insecurities, our relationship to Mother Earth, our finances and the unavoidable cycles of life & death. We are now at the tail end of this Taurus-Scorpio growth phase. Reflect on your past year, the changes, opportunities and growth the Eclipses have brought you. Notice what is coming up for you this week. What themes have been present for you throughout the past year?

​

• Your Health & your relationship to your body.

• Fears you were encouraged to look at.

• Your Relationship to Control

• Your Relationship to money

• Betrayal, shame, envy, dissatisfaction

• Realignment of values~ what truly matters

• Old wounds resurfaced

• Change, transitions

• Endings, losses, death.

​

For some of us, this week's Eclipse will reveal to us the final pieces to the puzzle we have been working on this past year.  For others trust that the pieces will show themselves over the next 2 months. 

Be Fluid~
Resist the Ego's need to know why things happen~
When it will be easier or What is ahead.

Eclipses accelerate our process, they bring Major Endings and Major New Beginnings.  They most certainly stir the pot with the Intention of Evolution.  Full Moons bring Light to that which has been hiding in the Shadows... A Full Moon Lunar Eclipse brings an Infra-red Light, allowing us to SEE ourselves FULLY as well as see opportunities around us more clearly. 

This weekend's Scorpio Lunar Eclipse brings PHOENIX energy, reminding us that endings, changes and setbacks also bring us opportunities for rebirth, New Beginnings and a fresh start. Scorpio teaches us that the WHEELS WILL KEEP TURNING- we can EVOLVE with the changes or we can get stuck by holding on to fear, control and resistance.

We all grow and change from the inside out. The Moon rules our "Inner" Self, our feelings and emotions.  The beauty of the Moon and our emotions is that they help us grow.  Scorpio energy always brings our Inner realm very accurately into our outer realm. Full Moons increase our access to greater understanding, they shed Light into the depths of our consciousness, showing us what we need to see and allowing us to feel what we need to feel. Scorpio sees things in black and white, in extremes, that what makes it so intense.  It is very hard to change, improve or heal what we cannot see or feel what needs healing.  

The Spiritual task of Scorpio is to encourage us to see our shadow- the parts of ourselves that we prefer to deny. The thing is, in order to have Confidence and Clarity we must first TRULY KNOW WHO WE ARE... All the parts, the Light & Shadow, the good, the bad, the ugly. When we Acknowledge these parts of ourselves, we can better manage them. A Scorpio Full Moon opens us up to see ALL the parts of ourselves, on a personal level and a collective level. It is the Optimal Opportunity to Up-level!!

Jupiter Enters Taurus: May 16th, 10:19 am (YOUR LUCK IS ABOUT TO CHANGE!)
For the past year the Eclipses have been in the Taurus-Scorpio Axis. Where Taurus is in your chart is the specific area of your life that the Universe has been encouraging you to up-level. The good news is~ that Jupiter (the Planet of Good Fortune, Ease, Blessings & Abundance) is about to move into THAT area of your chart. This means, whatever area of your life you have been improving, working on, perhaps feeling challenged~ you are about to get some relief as Jupiter enters Taurus bringing you more Ease, Joy & Luck.  Jupiter in Taurus enhances our desire for Joy, Peace and the Pleasures of life. Ultimately, having Jupiter in Taurus the next year, we all get support in boosting our confidence, self-esteem and perhaps even our bank accounts. The last time Jupiter was in Taurus was June 2011- June 2012.  What Blessings did you experience back then? 

Stillness and Silence open us up to hearing the Whispers of our Soul.  Allow yourself some "Inner" time this weekend, give yourself permission to feel, reflect on what REALLY matters, notice the Cycles and Trust the Cycles. More importantly, offer yourself OODLES of Compassion.

​

May I Be Free from Fear.
May I Treat Myself with Kindness.
May I Love Myself Just as I am.
May I Know My Own Goodness.
May I Give Myself the Compassion I need.

"Only awareness of your shadow qualities can help you find an appropriate place for your undeemed darkness and thereby create a more satisfying experience. To not do this work is to remain trapped in the loneliness, anxiety and dualistic limits of the ego instead of awakening to your higher calling." ROBERT A JOHNSON (Jungian Psychotherapist & Author)

HAPPY LUNAR ECLIPSE!
