The partial Lunar Eclipse in Taurus ♉️ of October 28, 2023
A Lunar Eclipse always takes place at the Full Moon, when the Sun (the Ego, the Conscious) and the Moon (the Feeling) are exactly opposite each other, with the Earth in between.
During a Lunar Eclipse, the shadow of the Earth falls completely or partially over the surface of the Moon, bringing unconscious feelings to the surface.
Eclipses are harbingers of great universal shifts in our personal and collective consciousness. 
Lunar eclipses are culminations of emotional cycles and are universal references to major shifts and transformative changes that will occur in the short term and that will determine the development of worldly events for years to come.
They are collective turning points of purification, shaking us up to the core and intertwined with something that occurred about three months prior to the Eclipse.
The last Eclipse of 2023 is the partial Lunar Eclipse of October 28, 2023 at 5º09 in the Earth sign Taurus.
This partial but very powerful Lunar Eclipse can be seen in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, United States of America, South America, the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans, the Arctic and Antarctica.
The third and final Lunar Eclipse in Taurus concludes a cycle that began with the Lunar Eclipse in Taurus on November 19, 2021 and the Solar Eclipse in Taurus on April 30, 2022.
The Venus-ruled earth sign Taurus is about money, financial markets, basic needs, security of existence, material security, stability, structure and what we value, emotional attachment and self-esteem.
This Eclipse cycle in Taurus has radically changed the global economy and our personal financial position over the past two years through economic turbulence, recession and scarcity.
Things that have always been familiar and provided stability can suddenly disappear and that can lead to emotional tension.
This partial Lunar Eclipse in Taurus is supported by retrograde Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus and is sextile retrograde Saturn in Pisces.
However, the opposition with Mercury and Mars in Scorpio is an ‘all from nothing’ aspect that requires us to take into account important breakthroughs and economic changes in the next 3 to 6 months.
Change is a constant factor in life.
But the reality is that change is uncomfortable and can create a lot of fear of the unknown. We hold on to things that are familiar even when they do not benefit us and even harm us emotionally. Real change requires us to become aware of our emotions and feelings.
Trust everything that is unfolding in your life as a natural process of transformation.
If something needs to end, an Eclipse can help us to materialize the intention of completion in the outer world in connection with the cycles of nature, the seasons and life all around us, on the path of the soul.

Clinging to the past hinders progress.
