The solar eclipse occurring on April 30th adds a potent element to the new moon! It occurs in 10 degrees and 28 minutes of Taurus, falling along the Taurus-Scorpio axis that began in late 2021. The tarot card associated with this transit is the six of pentacles. This tarot card encourages us to create a harmonic balance relating to our sense of security in regards to our money and material possessions. It also brings to our awareness our self-worth, integrity, the balance of power in relationships, generosity, benefactors, as well as fair and balanced compensation.
This partial solar eclipse connects with the partial solar eclipse that we will experience on October 25th. This means, we have the potential to feel the effects of the intentions that we set for this transit for up to six months! This allows us to make changes and/or improvements over time. Taurus is a fixed earth sign, and it can be a little bit stubborn. So, this six month interval allows us to bring about steady changes that produce long lasting, consistent results.
I encourage you to look up your natal chart and see where this transit is affecting you on a personal level. If you need help interpreting this information, let me know and we can set up an appointment to chat.
For the collective, this transit is occurring in the second house. This is the house relating to money, material possessions, our sense of value, & the physical body. Taurus is opposite the sign of Scorpio on the zodiac wheel, which is the house of shared assets. We are being asked to take a closer look at what we collect and what we share.
This eclipse is also highlighting the balance of power within ourselves and within our relationships. Self-worth and objectively seeing what one truly needs to feel happy and abundant, as well as identifying things that may be giving you a false sense of security, are themes that may be coming up for some of you.
As such, you may have a wake-up call during the next few months and decide to downsize in order to give yourself more freedom. Others of you may decide to pursue new career goals, ask for a raise, pay-off debts, adjust spending habits, adopt a healthier lifestyle, refinance your home, end a relationship or decide to strengthen the commitment.
This eclipse encourages us to follow through on what is important to us. To bring back into balance areas of our life that may have shifted into an uneven dynamic.
To walk in our true power, we must treat ourselves with integrity by not settling for less than what we deserve. This shifts our mindset to one of abundance. There is no fear of lack. Because we are not dependent on someone or something outside of ourselves to give us security and/or value. We cultivate our own garden.
