5/15/22 ✨ Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio
✨ Happy SUN Day!
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I release that which no longer serves me.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♈️ VENUS CONJUNCT ♈️ CHIRON (14º) 5:12 AM PT
Venus and Chiron meet in the sign of the inner child, triggering old wounds in our closest relationships. Painful dynamics that caused scars in the past could replay in the present. This conjunction in Aries can make us prone to act out in anger if we feel threatened or vulnerable. Former lovers could come back into the picture to force us to see what is still unhealed from those situations.
♉️ SUN SQUARE ♒️ SATURN (24º) 11:48 AM PT
The weight of our responsibilities feel especially heavy as the sun comes into a harsh 90º square to Saturn. Our attitude is our own worst enemy under this transit as we could feel trapped by the boundaries we’re placing on ourselves. Even small tasks could feel like major burdens. Our life force energy will feel stifled by Saturn’s limiting influence. Isolation or depression are possible this weekend. The easiest way around this transit is straight through it. Our determination is especially helpful now.
♉️ SUN SEXTILE ♓️ NEPTUNE (24º) 12:14 PM PT
Honestly, thank Goddess for Neptune’s influence today. At the same time the sun clashes with Saturn, it gets support from dreamy Neptune, opening our psychic sensitivities. We can be more empathetic and compassionate under this helpful aspect. This transit brings a sense of trust and reassurance amid a chaotic weekend.
🌕 LUNAR ECLIPSE IN SCORPIO ♏️ (24º) 9:13 PM PT
Eclipse season comes to a climax as the Sun and Moon align with the North and South Nodes, causing a lunar eclipse. As Earth's shadow blocks the light of the moon, we become aware of our deepest shadows and darkest fears. Scorpio energy brings an extra level of intensity to the shifts we're experiencing during eclipse season. We'll be tempted to try to control or manipulate this energy, but the key to navigating this eclipse is to take our hands off the wheel and simply allow the powerful energy burn away anything that’s no longer meant for us so we can rise like a phoenix from the ashes.

THE MOON:
🌕 MOON IN SCORPIO ♏️
The Scorpio moon plummets us to our darkest depths, revealing what’s been lurking in the shadows. Our ability to feel so deeply can make us feel raw and vulnerable. We could be tempted to manipulate if we feel out of control. The truth will prevail regardless.
♏️ MOON QUINCUNX ♈️ VENUS AND ♈️ CHIRON (14º) 3:00 AM PT
The moon makes an imbalanced connection to Venus and Chiron, making us reach a little farther to express our affections. We could find it difficult to align with our desires as they intertwine with our trauma. This could blur our understanding of what we really want.
♏️ MOON OPPOSITE ♉️ URANUS (15º) 5:00 AM PT
The moon opposes Uranus early Sunday morning, making us prone to outbursts and impulses. We could find ourselves seeking an external thrill to avoid the impending release within. This can also create surprising emotional revelations- both the nature and intensity of these truths could feel overwhelming. Avoid the tendency to create excitement to distract yourself from discomfort. This can rock the boat in a major way, causing tension in our most intimate relationships. The manner in which we react to disruptions will be critical today as well.
♏️ MOON CONJUNCT ♏️ SOUTH NODE (22º) 4:00 PM PT
The moon meets up with the South Node and opposes the North Node, bringing a deep emotional awareness to both the past and the future. We might feel lake a former version of ourselves or embody the energy we’re ready to release under the eclipse. This can feel like a final goodbye to an energy that is no longer serving us.
♏️ MOON TRINE ♓️ MARS (23º) 6:00 PM PT
The moon forms a harmonious trine to Mars in Pisces on Sunday night, helping us flow through transformation and take action that is aligned with the alchemy currently happening for us. This can almost feel like our higher self is acting on our behalf if we are tuned in enough to understand the evolution we're undergoing.
♏️ MOON TRINE ♓️ NEPTUNE AND SQUARE ♒️ SATURN (24º) 8:00 PM PT
The moon flows with dreamy Neptune, allowing us to have deeper compassion for ourselves and others. But a square between the moon and Saturn creates and energy of depletion. It’s been an intense weekend… there’s no question about it. Give yourself the gift of an early bedtime or time alone to process. Working things out through your subconscious (sleep) will be more beneficial than analyzing with our rational mind tonight.
✨TRANSITING IN THE BACKGROUND (within a degree)
✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
Eclipse season reaches its climax tonight. But this is no ordinary lunar eclipse… Saturn squares the sun and moon, adding an element of tension. This eclipse is forcing us to learn lessons and understand why all the shifts around us are happening. It could feel like the earth is moving under your feet as the energy of the Scorpio moon burns anything away no longer serving your highest good, clearing space for you to rise like a phoenix from the ashes. But wait… there’s more! Venus is also conjunct Chiron today- past relationship wounds could be reopened in order to finally heal. Thankfully, the sun and Neptune lock into a supportive angle as well, helping us lean into compassion, empathy, and universal love. The moon opposes Uranus first thing this morning- creating an energy of disruption. We end the day with harmony between the moon, Mars, and Neptune just before the eclipse, helping us flow through transformation and gain a higher understanding of the change taking place.
