Back in the Middle Ages, it was common practice to place dragons (or other mythological creatures) on uncharted areas of maps. The dragon’s placement indicated where potential dangers might exist. Dragons are also an ancient symbol for eclipses.
We’ve entered a new Eclipse Season, a time of immense change, and here be dragons.
The Full Moon Partial Lunar eclipse will peak at 12:58 am PST on November 19, 2021. Typically a Full Moon in Taurus offers peak stability. This hasn’t been the case since Uranus began its transit through Taurus in 2017. All of our attempts to bring balance, calm, and simplicity to certain areas of life seem to be in vain.
The Full Moon Partial Lunar Eclipse at 27° of Taurus will push you towards uncharted territories. Within this phase of significant shifts, your only job here is to move in the direction of flow. Grasping for the old way to remain will feel more uncomfortable than embracing the challenges of change. It’s okay to feel uncertain and not get it right. There is no right way, as you’re learning while doing.
Venus, the ruler of this eclipse, is in Capricorn making a trine to Uranus retrograde in Taurus. This eclipse will support a massive overhaul of anything habitual that no longer serves you. Look to your values and physical environment for clues.
Embrace creativity and innovation.
Creativity and innovation are wonderful things that we admire and equally may intimidate us. The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse will shine a light on what might feel threatening as you create new experiences for yourself. Nothing has gone wrong. Your lack of confidence is an indication that you are in new territory. Take some time to pause, reflect, and then release it.
On the day of the Full Moon and the days on either side, remember to provide extra self-care to your body, and yes, dancing counts. Want a lunar-inspired playlist? Check out this one.
Expect unexpected revelations.
November opened up with Mercury and Jupiter forming a harmonious connection.
On the day after the Lunar Eclipse (November 20th), these two planets connect again but with different results. Mercury in Scorpio squaring Jupiter in Aquarius will bring challenges in the form of some shocking information.
Perhaps a hidden secret or a little white lie is revealed now. This information, although unexpected, provides greater insight and perspective. You’re also encouraged to be the bigger person in this situation, not worsen a bad situation. How can your rise above any difficulties today? What do you need to hear to know that you are safe and loved?
