Tomorrow brings a Solar Eclipse in Taurus (at 8:28 pm here on the US East Coast). In astronomy terms, a solar eclipse marks the spot where a New Moon conjuncts (lines up exactly with) a node of the moon. And nodes are spots on the moon’s ecliptic (the path it follows). Currently, the South Node of the Moon is in Taurus, and the North Node of the Moon is in Scorpio; Thursday’s eclipse lines up with the South Node.
The South Node represents our old karmic stuff that we might still be working through. And since a Solar Eclipse tends to highlight stuff we need to deal with anyway, this Thursday is a good chance to clean out our emotional closet.
To understand how the eclipse will affect YOU specifically, you would need to know where Taurus is in your own chart. (It’s 20 degrees Taurus, in case you do.) But even if you don’t know that, you can still look at Taurean things in general: self-esteem, our need for stability and security, our finances, and our “stuff.” If you’ve been feeling restless and uncomfortable lately, you can use the eclipse energy to delve deeper and ask yourself some tough questions.
Are you hanging onto “stuff,” either literal or figurative? Are you valuing the right things (whatever that may be to you)? Are you valuing yourself?
Happy “House” Cleaning!

Good stuff, very well said. Hmm…. spring cleaning of the soul. I will work on that.
Thank you, Aimee!
Indeed! 🙂
