Let’s talk about the November 8th Blood Moon Eclipse happening in the earth sign of Taurus.
It’s set to be a pretty magical cosmic event! It is connected to the previous Blood Moon Eclipse we had back in May of this year, which fell in the sign of Scorpio.
Can you remember anything significant going on around that time?
It is possible that this November Eclipse is energetically connected to that May Eclipse, so it is likely that you will see some patterns, or repetitive themes emerge in your life.
It doesn’t mean that everything that happened in May will happen again, but it can certainly trigger similar lessons or experiences.
Eclipses always come with intense energy, bringing transformation, karmic events and providing an impetus to shift us further into our soul path.
They are often associated with shifts, surprises and instability, as they push us in fated ways that serve our highest good.
There is no reason to fear an eclipse, but it will be very important to stay as grounded as possible during these changes.
All the energy can make us feel irritable, frustrated or just a bit down.
It’s definitely good to remember that Eclipses can feel chaotic, but they always put us where we need to be for our soul’s highest path.
Any kind of transformation is always challenging.
We resist change, even when we know it is necessary.
This is because we need to be brutally honest with ourselves, and expose our vulnerabilities as we let go of the old.
Here’s what you can do to keep your cool and stay sane during the Eclipse:
Meditation and Grounding
Two important practices during major cosmic shifts are meditation and regular grounding.
Quieting your mind and taking time to simply sit and do nothing is an amazing way to feel calm, confident, centered and ready to take on anything.
Extra points if you can add standing barefoot outside on the floor.
Grounding yourself in this way every day will help you feel strong, no matter what comes your way.
Rest and Relaxation
Do not underestimate the importance of adequate rest and relaxation.
The eclipse can make us feel pulled and pulled in all directions.
Make sure you are getting the right amount of quality sleep, and carve out time to relax and unwind every day.
Focus on your Dreams
Use this time to create a laser-like focus on what you wish to manifest for yourself.
It’s important to be open to change, but still know what your long-term goals are.
Your dreams are important, and the more energy you spend to advance them, the more successful you will be. Commit yourself, and don’t look back.
Keep Your Body Nourished and Clean
Blood Moon Eclipses can manifest a cleansing effect in our lives, emotionally and physically.
It is vital that you take good care of your health right now.
Stay hydrated, eat nutritious foods, and pay attention to your thoughts as well as your nutrition.
Whatever is going on inside you, (whether it’s your stomach or your mind) has an external influence on the world around you.
These are things under our control, so it is very important to take care of them.
Stay Connected to your Inner Self
You can stay connected to your inner self by journaling every morning, or doing activities that capture your soul such as baking, gardening, painting, or dancing.
Scheduling time to check in with your inner self during Eclipse season will help you weather any unexpected changes or twists of fate that may occur.
You will be able to navigate any difficulties you feel connected to yourself on a deep level.
Practice Let Go
This Blood Moon Eclipse may make you feel like you’re breaking out of some boxes you’ve metaphorically limited yourself to.
Energy brings abrupt endings and changes in direction.
Practice being prepared to let go of the things you know in your heart are not good for you.
It will help you to navigate this energy if you are already able to stand your ground and have faith in a new beginning that appears, even in the midst of chaos.
Have Honest Conversations
Venus is active during this Eclipse. Venus, as you may know, is related to love, relationships and self worth.
You can prepare for the energy by encouraging honest conversations with your significant other, and with yourself.
Take a look at where your values are, and don’t be afraid to take action where things aren’t aligned.
Stay Out of Fear
Make an effort to protect your energy field by not absorbing fear-based news or gossip.
During cosmic shifts like Eclipses, it’s even more important than ever to be spiritually healthy.
Every time you feel yourself falling into fear, shift your focus to what it feels like to have faith instead.
Know that everything that is changing in your life right now is creating space for something new and better.
Build your trust in the unseen and experience an inner strength that will help you immensely.
The next Blood Moon Eclipse isn’t until 2025, so this is a bit of a rare event.
The best way to get through any complicated energy is to include as many of the above practices as possible in your routine.
While cosmic forces impact us, ultimately we are always in charge of our own actions.
Congratulate yourself for doing your best as you get through this time.
Remember that your soul is always growing and evolving for your highest good.
You are creating your future in every moment.
