The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague.
Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins?
-Edgar Allan Poe
The Full Moon peaks 5° of Taurus on Saturday October 28th at approximately 1:23 PM MST.
It is said that during the months of September through November the veil, an invisible barrier between us and the spirit realm, is thinner.
This allows us to connect with our ancestors, spirituality and intuition on a deeper level.
A Full Moon is the climax of a lunar cycle.
It is a time to reflect on your growth, celebrate, and harvest new internal realizations.
Eclipse season occurs about every six months and lasts about 34 days.
A Solar Eclipse happens when, at just the right moment, the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth.
A Lunar Eclipse occurs during a Full Moon when the moon passes into the earth’s shadow and supercharges the powerful energy of Luna!
This particular Taurus Lunar Eclipse is a partial eclipse and peaking at about 1:15 PM. Although we may not be able to see it with our own eyes here in Phoenix, AZ, we will be able to feel its intensity.

Eclipses tend to accelerate us forward on our life path, which can leave us feeling a little overwhelmed or uncertain. Make sure to take a deep breath or several.
Eclipses are like portals to a higher and more aligned version of our soul, and through their energy, we can leap forward into the next chapter of our soul path.
We plant seeds during the New Moon and harvest the fruits of our labor during the Full Moon.
The Sun in Scorpio is illuminating themes surrounding Death, Transformation & Forgiveness.
Luna is reflecting these themes back to us.
After all, the moon reflects the sun’s light.
Allow the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse to assist you in releasing anything that is no longer sustainable in your life so that you can make room for the new. This includes emotional releases, physical releases and even de-cluttering our environment for mental clarity.
