Taurus New Moon: Solar Eclipse

April 30, 2022 By Jacqueline

“Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.” Rumi

fox by Janie Olson 149x300 - Taurus New Moon: Solar Eclipse
Earth’s body is your body.

Savor each precious moment.

Earth wisdom is your birthright.
Embody your center,
sanctuary in the sanctity of your senses.

Bring your attention
to the source and substance
upon which you stand.

Your feet touch holy ground.

This precious lifetime,
your animal body.
The earth meets you and supports you.
Your roots are deeper than you know.

Bow to the elements,
within you and all around you.
Your vibrant core is central
in the incomprehensible web of life.

“If we surrendered to earth’s intelligence, we could rise up rooted, like trees.” Rainer Maria Rilke

In communion with the Earth,
be nourished through beauty and pleasure.
Your body is your matrix.
Your body is your compass.

There are hundreds of ways
to kneel and kiss the ground.

Your body is Earth’s body.
Earth’s body is your body.
Savor each precious moment.

Beltane, the seasonal cross quarter celebration – halfway between the spring equinox and summer solstice, is often observed on May 1st. Astronomically speaking, this year it is exact on May 5 at 5:25 am PDT. The rhythm of this week brings enlivening opportunities for fresh beginnings, fertility and growth.

Taurus new moon arrives with eclipse surprises, jeweled seeds, and delicious dreams into the upturned soil of our lives. It is a Solar Eclipse that emphasizes significant endings and beginnings. The tempo and tone is rapid, unexpected and often chaotic as Sun and Moon are conjunct Uranus, the Awakener, one of the transpersonal planets that spans a generation of collective change. Taurus’s inclination towards comfort and stability contrasts with the excitement and urgency of Uranus. Life moves quickly.

The eclipse brings attention to desire, possessions, income and investments – all earthly attachments. Modern culture has a great emphasis on commerce and ownership. Yet the web of life with which we are interconnected are earthy attachments that we take for granted. The destruction of our natural environment occurs daily, is widespread, and worldwide. Biodiversity is imperiled and we are mostly unaware of what life is slipping away. How may we act in kinship with all living creatures? How may each individual do something other than worry about it or distract from the harsh facts? The eclipse is time for each of us to reconsider our priorities.

Pluto station retrograde on April 29 coincides with the eclipse. We are called to look deeply and experience life intensely. Pluto is in the late degrees of Capricorn. (Pluto in Capricorn: November 27, 2008 to January 21, 2024 will venture in Aquarius March 23rd, 2023 then retrograde back into Capricorn on June 11th, 2023.) I’ve often referred to Pluto in Capricorn as the crumbling patriarchy. It’s been and continues to be a long, slow crumbling slog. But remember that Pluto is also about repair, reconstruction and rebirth. All of this at once. Intensely.

Look at your astrological chart to see where Taurus is located. Particularly for those with natal placements at 8°–12° of the fixed signs – Taurus, Scorpio, Leo and Aquarius. It is where this Solar Eclipse will churn up new ground and where you’ll find both the gems and the old bones of your past.

There’s more… If you’d like to to look deeper into your astrological chart, let’s schedule an appointment.

“An old image holds the Earth to be like a great drum. When we walk on it, especially if we walk with consciousness and an instinctive awareness of the gift of life that we have each received, then we are playing the drum of the Earth with our feet. If that sense of consciousness and awareness can be awakened in enough people, a kind of intensification of being could occur and we could find ourselves coming closer together and being closer to the beating heart of the Earth itself.” Michael Meade

Seeds of Insight

What are the contradictions in my life that are pressing me to awaken?

What am I afraid to lose by living in accordance with my values?

What does it mean to act in kinship with all living creatures?

and how may I incorporate these actions into my daily life?


“I have been playing back the recording of my reading when I get ready for work in the mornings. I listen to a little of it each morning and Jacqueline, I must say thanks once again for all your wisdom and insight. Your reading has been incredibly instrumental, and I really appreciate how much thought and caring you put into your analysis. It is both instructive and inspiring!” K. A.


The sun, the moon and the planets are your allies in seeking truth. They offer parameters, milestones and timing. They open doors – if you are willing to step through the threshold to deeper understanding and self-acceptance. I welcome your inquiry as we stand at the crossroads. I offer navigation in the mystery through astrology and tarot.
With Love,
Jacqueline
