Eclipse Season is always a highly transformative time. You can think of them as portals that fast-track you to the next chapter of your soul evolution. On this fast track, we tend to undergo abrupt transformations that can be life-changing.
Eclipse Season typically brings two Eclipses that work together in tandem. While Eclipses have a peak date, their energy is so potent that we tend to feel them up to a month before and a month after.
In this final Eclipse Season for 2022, we have two Eclipses, a Solar New Moon Eclipse on October 25 and a Total Lunar Blood Moon Eclipse on November 8.
These Eclipses are working in connection with the Eclipses we had earlier in the year back in April and May. We may notice themes returning from this time, or more of the story may unfold.
While the Blood Moon Eclipse on November 8 is much more intense, here is what this Scorpio New Moon Solar Eclipse on October 25 brings.
Solar Eclipses, which always fall on New Moons are portals of new beginnings. They open doors and can form new energetic pathways that we get to travel down. Their energy is fresh, even inviting, and can remind us of what our soul came here to achieve.
Under a New Moon Solar Eclipse, we can start feeling inspired or perhaps keen to plant new seeds and begin a new chapter in our lives. As this Solar Eclipse falls in the sign of Scorpio, we may find ourselves connecting to a higher level of our soul, understanding ourselves on a deeper level, and peeling back some layers to really reveal a new truth.
Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and heart expansion is very active under this Solar Eclipse, sending harmonious vibrations into the cosmic skies. With Venus very active at this time, we can use this Solar Eclipse energy to expand our hearts, the giving and receiving of love in our lives, and to think about what we truly value. We may find it easier to love, easier to give, or easier to focus on what is truly important to us.
Under this heart-expansion energy, we may even gain the clarity that is needed to help navigate any challenges in our relationships. We may decide that our heart no longer wants to be involved in a certain dynamic, or we may find that our heart is ready to open and move into that next chapter.
You may also notice yourself embracing more of this dynamic in your own life. This activation of feminine energy under the influence of the Scorpio Moon can also help to activate our sexual energy, stand up for what feels right in our hearts, and embrace the wisdom of Mother Nature.
We may also feel any repressed feminine energy rising up, longing to be heard, felt, and expressed.
Eclipses carry their own power that helps to create, move, and shift us to wherever we need to be, so we can use this opportunity to sit back, go with the flow, and trust in whatever the Universe needs to bring our way.
The rise of feminine energy around this Eclipse may also naturally help us to sit back, accept, and trust wherever we are being led. Sometimes the most powerful changes can come when we first accept the way things are. This acceptance can then birth new ideas, new inspiration, and new ways of being.
Stay open to what comes in and use this time to recharge, protect, and nourish your body, mind, and soul. Keep things gentle, and focus your attention on this beautiful Venus energy, which is helping to expand our hearts.
Here is what it means for your sun signs:
Aries: Chemistry could bubble up—or go from warm to exothermic—with someone who wants to go the distance with you. But since eclipses come with a shadow, you could just as easily fall for the charms of a card-carrying player. Whether it is love or finance, vagueness won’t work in either arena near the Scorpio solar eclipse, and an ultimatum may be necessary.
Taurus: A promising prospect could pop up out of the blue, someone who seems like that missing puzzle piece you’ve been searching for. Since eclipses can add the element of surprise, this hopeful contender might even be someone you’ve known for a while. Nothing ventured, nothing gained! A connection that’s been simmering on the back burner could turn into something a lot more exclusive.
Gemini: October 25, a solar eclipse in Scorpio jumpstarts a six-month health kick. Try bringing some vitality-boosting fare to your plate. Sign up for a sports league or splurge for a membership at a fitness studio with fun classes. This one-two punch could illuminate some hidden health issues that require adjustment. And if it’s time for a new doctor, the eclipse could illuminate a great healer.
Cancer: Your love life gets a reset and some magical momentum. If you’re single, a hot prospect may arrive or you could finally get clarity about a situation that’s had a major question mark hanging over it. Solar eclipses open brief windows of opportunity and you’ll want to strike while the iron is hot! This lunation during eclipse season 2022 could herald a proposal or pregnancy, or maybe just a fresh start with your S.O.
Let bygones be bygones and focus on what you can co-create with your sweetie over the coming six months. Taking on a shared goal that’s both challenging and stimulating will strengthen your bond. Just talking about all the things you could do together will be a total turn-on!
Leo: Is it time to renovate, relocate or Feng Shui your digs? Nesting news arrives on October 25 as the solar eclipse in Scorpio could shake up your home as you know it. When you walk in do you feel restful and enlivened in all the right places? Or is there a heavy pallor or claustrophobia when you step through the archway? Move things around (and even consult a Feng Shui pro) to get the chi flowing. Having your environment in order is so grounding. A letter could arrive from the landlord announcing a rent increase or some truly irritating construction to your building.
Virgo: Solar eclipses herald surprises and fresh beginnings. This one could bring the gift of a new BFF or kindred spirit for a creative collaboration. If you’ve been in a social slump, venture out and explore new scenes and activities. Could your transportation mode use an upgrade? Hit bike shops and car lots for test drives. You could roll out on a new set of wheels before the week is through.
Libra: Looking for new work? Circulate your LinkedIn page, call the recruiters, or schedule a performance review with the powers that be. Eclipses bring surprise opportunities, and a job offer or dream client could pop up out of the blue. You won’t have forever to mull over your decision. If the pros outweigh the cons, jump on it—yes, even if it means making some fairly significant changes to your life.
If you’ve been saving and planning diligently, this eclipse could green light a long-awaited investment purchase.
Scorpio: This fierce lunation is like a bonus cosmic New Year to the tenth power during eclipse season 2022! What is standing in the way of your full potential? If you’re happily attached, you should still carve out more space to pursue your autonomous interests. Maybe you’ve been itching to make a fresh start lately. If you haven’t treated yourself lately, invest in your own self-development. Think: a life-altering seminar or sessions with helpful experts like a stylist, coach or private yoga instructor.
Sagittarius: Actively seek wise counsel: a career coach, trainer, therapist, or even a holistic or spiritual healer.
If you’ve suffered a recent setback or loss, resources may pop up to help you get back on track like a book that “falls off the shelf,” or a must-experience class that a friend recommends. This eclipse wants you to STOP trying to force a situation to go according to your perfect, fairy tale vision. The universe’s Plan B might bring you more joy than you realize.
Capricorn: Finding a crowd where you feel truly comfortable hasn’t ever been an easy quest for you. Still, there ARE places where you feel right at home and this eclipse could catapult you into direct contact with groups that you actually want to (gasp!) join!
This eclipse could herald new beginnings; they can be as forceful as a hurricane when it comes to blowing you out of your comfort zone, too. Stop ignoring invitations or being vaguely non-committal. Socializing will remind you of how much support you actually have.
Aquarius: Be prepared to pounce on October 25 when the solar eclipse in Scorpio brings major momentum for your career.
This eclipse opens some exciting windows of opportunity—ones that don’t often leave much time for deliberating. So when an enticing offer comes in, leap if you’re ready! There may even be an established entity involved, like a major brand or an industry influencer.
Since eclipses can bring surprises, the people you turn down may step up their game, revealing just how badly they actually want you. In some cases, however, the eclipse will bring a test. This might come in the form of an offer that just isn’t on par with your level of experience or expertise.
Pisces: Pull your suitcase out of storage. Traveling both for business and pleasure could expand your horizons in every way—and you may set off on this voyage faster than expected. Since the ninth house rules higher education, this eclipse could shoot you into back-to-school mode, be it a degree program, weekend workshop or an online course.
Feeling enterprising? Whether you’re signing your own paychecks or working as a hired gun, you’re ready for expansion and greater independence. If you already own a company, add new offerings for your customers or replicate your winning model in a new territory.
