As the Sun aligns with Saturn, the planet of accountability, discipline, and karmic lessons, and the waxing moon passes through Virgo and enters a lunar eclipse, the universe is a hive of activity today. According to astrology, eclipses are events that accelerate us toward our destiny by bringing about significant changes and opening and closing doors to guide us in the right way. With Saturn in Pisces sitting directly opposite the Moon, we will feel the tension of this eclipse increasing throughout the day. This Virgo lunar eclipse will reach fullness at the end of tonight (or early tomorrow, depending on your time zone!).
There is a sense of urgency to express emotions and values we have been struggling with because Mercury in Aries, which is preparing to go retrograde, is ruling this eclipse. Mercury is located directly next to an already retrograde Venus. Even though communication will undoubtedly be a crucial tool in helping us get through this eclipse, it’s vital to keep in mind that we might need to bring up the same discussions again in the future. Along with Uranus in Taurus, this eclipse also puts the moon in a flowing, supportive trine. This day is going to be anything but ordinary and ordinary since Uranus is the planet of disruption, unexpected inspiration and change, and upending the status quo. When it comes to how we care for and nurture our aspirations as we strive to make them a reality in our practical world, this eclipse is drawing our attention to the boundaries we feel ourselves pushing against and what we can no longer tolerate.
All things considered, today is a significant day for all 12 signs as we get ready to embrace change and learn about how our destiny and our personal goals and aspirations intersect with a Virgoan sense of pragmatism. Make sure to check for your sun and rising sign as you continue reading to learn the specific meaning of today’s astrology for your sign!

Taurus

The area of your chart that represents creativity, enjoyment, and self-expression is being lit as you approach our moon eclipse in Virgo.
