Eclipses are the exclamation points in the cosmos. They punctuate wild weather and mark major turning points of all kinds. The world news can be especially surprising near eclipses. On Tuesday, October 25, 2022 at 6:49 am EDT there will be a partial solar eclipse at the New Moon at 2 degrees Scorpio 00 minutes. The Full Moon on Election Day, November 8, 2022, brings a total lunar eclipse at 16 degrees Taurus 00 at 6:02 am EST. The two week cycle between October 25 through November 8 can be a turbulent time of twists and turns. The spirit world will be especially active. A departed loved one or a meandering local ghost may send messages from the afterlife.
Eclipses are unpredictable. Astrology reminds us to expect the unexpected when eclipses occur. The October 25 eclipse degree has the symbol of “A great headland over which the Sun is rising.” This is a lofty image, suggesting elevated goals. The focus is idealistic and futuristic. The November 8 eclipses hints at upsets around the general election in the United States. Its symbol reads “Swimming in a river against the current, making no progress.” This eclipse pattern falls on the Taurus/Scorpio financial axis, primarily this hints at changes in long held financial management guidelines. The economy could take a rollercoaster ride. Values are being redefined. Look at the houses ruled by Taurus and Scorpio and the planets and luminaries in your own horoscope in those signs within three degrees of the eclipse points for insights concerning how this important celestial pattern impacts you.
