Solar Eclipse in Taurus:  The Great Karmic Reset is Here

The first Eclipse of 2022 is happening in the fixed earth sign of Taurus on April 30.

Eclipses are powerful celestial events that very often bring about unavoidable karmic circumstances and relationships.

A Solar Eclipse appears when the Moon is between the Sun and the Earth, blocking out the light of the Sun.

It’s a powerful lunation that always takes place on a New Moon.

It is considered to be three times more potent than a regular New Moon because it’s happening in close proximity to the Lunar Nodes of Destiny.

Despite the fated nature, Eclipses should not be feared but welcomed as a source of evolutionary change that leads to a powerful yet often uncomfortable, and even painful transformation.

This partial Solar Eclipse will have a profound effect on all of us, thanks to the volatile conjunction with the planet of revolutionary changes and breakthroughs Uranus.

It will certainly have an even bigger impact on those who have any placements (especially natal Sun, Moon and/or Ascendant) in fixed signs: Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, and Aquarius.

Partial Solar Eclipse in Taurus

Taurus rules over financial market, currencies, banking, material possessions, personal finances, land, agriculture, food, food distribution systems, among other things.

The Taurus – Scorpio axis is the financial axis of the Zodiac.

At the collective level, we could witness some major shifts in the economics, banking systems, currencies distribution, etc.

Financial market volatility, especially when it comes to currencies and crypto currencies, can be significantly triggered by this Eclipse.

Issues with food distribution and even food shortage crisis can be also triggered by this Eclipse since Taurus rules over food and agriculture.

This is the first Solar Eclipse in Taurus since the Nodes of the Moon shifted into Taurus – Scorpio back in January, so it’s very likely it’s just giving us a glimpse of the volatile times ahead. 

The Cosmic Weather Report

Auspicious Venus – Jupiter conjunction in Pisces is happening around the time of this Eclipse, not far from Neptune.

This is a dreamy, idealistic and super creative energy.

Venus is also the ruler of this Eclipse in Taurus.

To see it getting so much healing support from the greater benefic Jupiter and the planet of unconditional love and compassion Neptune is just beautiful.

This can trigger a major healing of psychological, emotional and even physical wounds on both individual and collective level.

This powerful alignment signifies the start of a fruitful period when all of the hard work we’ve been putting in for months, even years is going to pay off.

Unpredictable Uranus

However, taken into account unpredictable, fated nature of Eclipses, this Eclipse has the ability to disrupt what could have been otherwise an absolute blessing.

This is especially relevant due to its close proximity to disruptive, unpredictable Uranus.

It is virtually impossible to make any solid predictions when Uranus is involved.

The keywords to describe this lunation would be volatile, ground-breaking, eruptive, unpredictable, earth-shattering (this term could prove to be quite accurate, since Taurus rules over land and agriculture, among other things, so there is a high likelihood of volcano eruptions and even earthquakes).


Before we dive in, be sure to check your Ascendant, Moon and Sun signs to get a full picture. When you read a horoscope for your Sun sign only, you only get a glimpse of what’s in store for your personal and professional life.

Your Sun sign (related to the day you were born) might be an important component of your identity, but it’s only a small fraction of the whole story. Very often, your Ascendant (or Rising sign) is the most accurate representation of you as an individual, as it rules your first house of the self and therefore has the biggest impact on your personal horoscope.

The Moon sign represents your emotional and psychological imprint and is worth checking out as well, especially if your primary focus at present is on matters of the heart.
