There is a partial Solar Eclipse and New Moon in Taurus on Saturday, April 30th at exactly 3:28 pm CDT. All of the eclipses in 2022 occur in either Taurus or Scorpio, so keep your eye on those houses in your chart. Expect some significant evolutions to come out of those areas of your life this year. Since this is only a partial eclipse, we may feel like whatever we discover, we’re only getting part of the story or missing some information. But remember, eclipses bring disturbances, so embrace it all as part of the cycle.
Since this is a New Moon/Eclipse in Taurus, something we thought was settled or established might get uprooted. It may be that we missed something necessary in our efforts to plow forward. We also may need to re-evaluate how we deal with or maintain our resources. It may be that we don’t actually have what we need to feel comfortable or secure after all.
Globally there may be an increase in issues related to financial systems and natural resources. Southern South America will be most affected as the eclipse covers that part of the planet. This is not the time to engage in a risky financial arrangement or make impulsive investments. Ensure you are stocked with vital supplies and pay attention to weather-related news. (This is not to scare you! Most of us will come out unscathed, but it is my job to prepare you.)
The Moon is close to joining Uranus during this New Moon/Eclipse highlighting something in our lives that needs to be changed or adjusted. Look to your rising sign horoscope above to find out topics that could be affected. There is also a greater possibility of unexpected events or consequences, so hold on tight.
The very good news is that Venus joins Jupiter in Pisces very soon after this New Moon/Eclipse, and Venus rules both planets. We can navigate these challenges successfully if we rely on lovingkindness and generosity towards others, which means we may have to put our egos aside right now. Let’s keep trying to make the world a better place, starting with ourselves.
