“In a dark time, the eye begins to see.” 
Theodore Roethke

Eclipse upheaval.

 

Alchemy of gravity’s gloom

and unveiling light.

 

Earth shadow,

obscured memories.

 

Blood moon bright,

stressful revelations.

 

Moonbeams glare

through the massive shadow,

in a cosmic stew.

 

Life is calling you forward

be bold, be real, weigh the risks.

Your ancestors stand behind you.

 

Beyond your fears,

allies (seen and unseen) are guides

through the mysteries you face.

 

There is no turning back. Life is present now.

“In a dark time, the eye begins to see,

I meet my shadow in the deepening shade;  

I hear my echo in the echoing wood—”

Lunar Eclipse – Cosmic Stew

November 8, 2022

3:01 am PT

 

Halloween is over, but we are still traveling between worlds. The richness of harvest and the increasing darkness. Acknowledge the betwixt and between, pay attention. What might your senses perceive?

Lunar eclipse conjunct Uranus shakes us out of our comfort zone. Awakening stirs in surprising ways… through a dream, song lyrics, or a chance meeting with someone from your past?

Mercury and Venus align with the Sun in Scorpio. Examine your values. Listen to what you’re thinking and saying.

Saturn at the apex in a T square to the eclipse. What are the hard realizations? What are the unmovable, contentious circumstances? How may I restructure my life in accordance with the challenges and opportunities at hand? Reconsider your definition of security.

Look at your natal chart for planets and points 15°–17° of Taurus, Scorpio, Leo, and Aquarius. These will be most activated by the eclipse, even though we’re all in the cosmic stew together.

This eclipse is a culmination point of the last year’s (lingering) major aspect between Saturn and Uranus – read more

“Blessed are the men and women

who are planted on your earth,

in your garden,

who grow as your trees and flowers grow,

who transform their darkness to light.

 

Their roots plunge into darkness;

their faces turn toward the light.”

 from Song of Solomon trans. by Stephen Mitchell

Eclipse season is a powerful portal in which to look deeply into your natal chart for a personal reading!

---

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
