Full Moon Eclipse 2022: Taurus-Scorpio Axis Astrology
November’s full moon lunar eclipse is happening on November 8th in Taurus. A lunar eclipse is when the earth’s shadow falls across the face of a full moon, causing it to darken and appear red. This occurs twice annually, and this year they are in Taurus and Scorpio — opposite signs of the zodiac.
With the eclipses happening on the Taurus-Scorpio axis, your financial and emotional stability is at risk of major disruption. But rest assured, eclipses are cosmic helping hands that ultimately bring you closer to your destination.
What is an eclipse?
A lunar eclipse is an astronomical event where the Earth is midway between the Sun and the Moon. This type of eclipse only happens on a Full Moon. Symbolically, lunar eclipses are a time for release and surrender.
Think of it as a detox that brings about fated events and unprecedented soul growth. As unexpected and painful as these events may be, they’re cathartic. A challenging yet much-needed slap in the face to awaken to new narratives, perspectives, and healing journeys.
Our karmic path is illuminated thanks to the light reflected on the Moon during the eclipse. This gives us a closer look at the truth. The lunar eclipse sometimes expedites what is already fated or doomed to happen: break-ups, upheavals, and endings.
As you step away from your comfort zone, remember that every step leads you straight to where you need to go. So trust the process and allow whatever must unfold to share its wisdom with you.
the 2022 Taurus-Scorpio Axis
Since January 2022, the North and South Nodes have been in Taurus and Scorpio, respectively.
Astrologer Monisha Holmes notes, “The North Node in Taurus is a reminder to approach life with patience, peace, and a willingness to share and receive love. The South Node in Scorpio suggests the need to practice trust, identify maladaptive defense mechanisms, and show a willingness to be kind to ourselves and others.” (Cosmopolitan)
The Taurus-Scorpio axis is known as the axis of ownership and exchange. Its central themes are:
Giving (Taurus) vs. Receiving (Scorpio)
Retention (Taurus) vs. Elimination (Scorpio)
Second House of personal resources and physical possessions (Taurus) vs. Eight House of shared resources and personal power (Scorpio)
When approaching matters related to this axis, we are constantly faced with an underlying question: “Is this something I should hold on to or let go of?”.
Both Taurus and Scorpio are fixed signs, known for their ability to be (very) stubborn and set in their ways. Taurus relates to our ability to create and mold physical reality with our bare hands. Meanwhile, Scorpio is closely associated with our occult and psychic powers.
Thus, this axis is a fantastic opportunity to tap into our sixth sense, inner magic, and resourcefulness to attract more abundance, stability, and opulence.
What to Expect from the Taurus Eclipse 2022
The reliable earth sign Taurus speaks to our relationship with our environment, body, food, possessions, and money. Taurus rules over root chakra issues such as feeling grounded, wealthy, and safe.
Taurus reminds us to feel the cold grass beneath our bare feet, breathe deep, bake for our loved ones, and feel the heat of another body against ours.
In the realm of the Hedonist Builder, the body is a holy temple. And pleasure, physical sensations, and attunement to the rhythms of nature are tools that help forge and sanctify this place.
The Taurus Lunar Eclipse is here to remind you to be mindful of these details and to drop into your body as often as possible. So this week, allow your Taurian forces to take the reins and allow yourself to experience life hands-on.
One thing is for sure - this November’s Eclipse will highlight the relationships in our lives. Not only the ones we have with fellow human beings but also the ties we have to self, work, and values.
This transit increases the odds of over-indulging and desiring to feel good by any means possible. So watch out for emotional gaslighting, spiritual bypassing, wastefulness, and shopping sprees.
As you find yourself brooding under the cold, darkening skies, focus your energy on the projects you’ve been shoving aside. Expect and embrace the collective downloads of inspiration!
The karmic nature of the Taurus moon eclipse will help you further channel the insights you need to put forward your talent, expertise, and skills in the best light possible.
