Weekly Overview
04.27-05.03.2022
On the 30th at 1:28pm PT we have a powerful solar eclipse in Taurus. The effects of eclipses take a while to build up, and their effects take about six months to fully unfold. It’s unwise to try to make things happen or do deep spiritual work this week; there is nothing to do, you only need to receive.
Remember: where your attention goes, is where your energy flows. Especially in times of overwhelm or discord, turn your attention to what’s authentic and heartfelt for you. This isn’t the time for playing games or being controlling. For a detailed breakdown of the eclipse and the rest of this week’s horoscope, read the transcripts from episode 256 of my weekly astrology & advice show, Ghost of a Podcast, or listen to it here or wherever podcasts are heard.

Your solar eclipse homework is acceptance. This week you run the risk of fixating on what you think things should be, or how others should be feeling or behaving. If you do this, you’re likely to be unhappy and ineffective. Consider what you’re holding onto, Virgo. What attachments do you have? Are they getting in the way of you being present and enjoying the way things actually are?

The solar eclipse on the 30th is happening in your relationship house, and that is likely to spark some surprising emotional dynamics within your close connections this week. The best thing for you to do is to be honest about what you’re feeling, what you need, and what you have to offer. You can’t control how others feel, nor should you. Keep your side of the street clean, and allow people and situations to reveal themselves to you in time.
While we’re in eclipse season and there is so much unpredictable energy at play, your challenge is to stay present. Matters are still developing, and that means you are unlikely to have enough information to make a truly informed choice. Explore your relationship to impatience because it is connected to your relationship with the truth. In life, things must play out in their own time. If you’re in a rush, you’re not in a state of receptivity. Explore what you don’t know, Sagittarius.
It’s a solar eclipse on the 30th, a time for you to connect or reconnect with your emotions. In the busyness of life, it may be tempting to ignore how you feel so that you can power through and do the things that need getting done. If you’ve been doing this, you’re likely to be feeling anxious and not totally clear about why. Slow down and nurture yourself so that the process of how you engage with your life is more sustainable, Capricorn.
Where do you have sanctuary in your life? It’s important to have physical space that you can step into that feels calm so that you can recharge or realign. As tempting as it may be to fixate on problems, the solar eclipse on the 30th is an invitation to turn your attention towards where you feel solace. Invest in your safe spaces, and if you don’t have any, consider how you may create them, Aquarius.
