The first pair of eclipses of 2023 are upon us! 

​Here's your guide....
Eclipses typically occur in pairs of two - a new moon eclipse or solar eclipse, and a full moon eclipse, or lunar eclipse, not necessarily in that order - two weeks apart, in spring and fall, forming "portals" of change (the two weeks in between the eclipses).  

Eclipses are based on the lunar nodes - these are calculated points and "shadows" of the moon, with the north node representing soul growth, increase, appetite, future, and destiny (what's pulling us forward), and the south node representing karma, decrease, release, past, and fate (what is completed/what we are moving away from - or what's holding us back).

Eclipses astrologically always bring big and lasting change into our lives, and the first eclipse portal of 2023 promises to deliver, so let's discuss what to expect with the upcoming 4/19 and 5/5 eclipses and how to work with them.
Astrology is a language of energy - it is the interpretation of energetic currents affecting our lives - especially the energies of the luminaries (sun and moon) and the planets.

Here's the thing:  IT'S ALL ENERGY.  Everything is energy - everything in this universe, in this world, in this life, in your life, right down to the thoughts in your head - is energy.  And you are a powerful creator.  You were made to create, and you are creating your world, your experience in life with every breath - it's just that many times this is an unconscious process.  The trick is to make it a conscious one so you are creating what you want, the alchemist of your life.

I'm not just an astrologist, I'm a coach professionally trained in hypnotherapy, so I understand a lot about not just energy and your soul's blueprint in this life, but about the subconscious mind, the limiting beliefs that keep us stuck, and how to change those.

My mission is to empower you - to guide you into becoming conscious of hidden limitations and limiting conditioning and beliefs, achieving energetic and emotional mastery, and align with your personal truth, path, and purpose - so you can be in your inner authority and full creative power, sovereign ruler of your realm, so you can create a physical reality that supports you.
Understanding the Lunar Nodes in Your Natal Chart:  Studying the lunar nodes in your natal chart gives you invaluable information about your "soul map," with the north node representing your soul growth in this life and what you need to consciously keep growing into and moving towards, and the south node representing your past, past lives, the karma you've created, the skills you've already mastered, and the trap of what feels familiar - you need to take the skills and wisdom of your south node, strap those tools in your tool belt, and let them assist you on your journey towards your north node - hanging out in your south node in this lifetime will only result in the universe pushing you harder and harder out of it until you have no choice but to let go and move on.  This process is much easier when done consciously and proactively!  (I always cover the nodes of the natal chart with coaching clients to remove the confusion, blocks, and stuck feelings and help them understand clearly the direction of their soul path.).

Working with the 4/19 Aries New Moon Eclipse
The 4/19 new moon eclipse at 29° Aries falls at the anaretic or karmic degree of the first sign of the zodiac, giving this eclipse extra oomph.  It's our 2nd Aries new moon in a row, the prelude to the north node of destiny and increase moving into Aries for 18 months in early July, and the first solar eclipse in Aries since 2004.

What does all of that mean for you?  This new moon eclipse is ushering in major new beginnings.

How do you work with this epic new moon eclipse to harness it's potent power in your life?  I've got three steps for you, and the set up this week leading up to the eclipse is crucial.
1.  Believe.  This is a Mars-ruled new moon eclipse bringing powerful change having to do with self-assertion, with Mars transiting Cancer, sign of the tenacious crab.  The ascendant for this new moon eclipse falls in Sagittarius - sign of faith, belief, and optimism.  You've got this.  Forget about surviving - set your dial to THRIVE.

2.  Do the dark moon release work.  We've got ruler Mars in sign of emotions and past, Cancer, in square to wounded healer Chiron in Aries AND in supportive aspect to Mercury about to go retrograde in Taurus on 4/21 (a review of thinking and communications especially around security, resources, pleasure, and material possessions), and the new moon eclipse will be in applying conjunction to the north node in the beginning degrees of Taurus all in square to Pluto at 0° Aquarius.  Pluto is in square to the nodes of future and past from early March all the way til early December this year and the overarching theme is letting go of the past so you can rebirth into the future and your destiny.  Cancer can be overly attached and sentimental, so now is the time to dive deep into your subconscious, heal any unresolved bits from the past, and identify any unconscious tendencies to self-sabotage.  Wrap it up, close it out, and leave that stuff in the past where it belongs.  It's done.  Make peace with it.  Drop it, leave it.  
​
3.  Take heart, have courage, turn and face your fears.  This is a major new beginning in Aries, sign of self, the warrior, courage, and passion.  Summon your courage and face your fears.  This time, you're not shrinking, you're confronting.  Everything you desire is on the other side of this, and you will win.  There's no other option.  You know all of the old scars and wounds, you know the patterns, and now you also are quite aware that staying stuck and giving your power away to the past is much worse than just turning to face it and saying, "not this time."  Whatever you experienced in the past, you've already lived it - the memory of it only has power over you if you allow it to.  And you're done with that.  This is a new chapter, and that old story isn't going to be a part of it.
