3 Tips for Managing a Total Lunar Eclipse

During a Full Moon the Sun and Moon are exactly opposite, which naturally calls into focus the 'Other' and therefore relationships of all kinds. And although this affects all of us, if you were born during a Full Moon you are more predominantly concerned with the nature of relationships in general, and relationship circumstances may shift specifically around these times.

A Total Lunar Eclipse is a far more potent Full Moon. Literally, it's when the Full Moon passes through the shadow of the Earth meaning the Sun and Moon are on opposite sides of the Earth. This change in 'view' for us, from our position on Earth, can in affect create a change in the interpretation of our relationships and therefore cause crisis, change or major shifts within them. 

So here are a few tips that can serve you during all Full Moon phases, and even more so during a Total Lunar Eclipse.

1. Let Spirit Reveal the Solutions - If there are major concerns around a particular relationship and you are uncertain about what course to take; seek solitude, quiet time or meditation to allow your deeper desires and truths to be revealed before taking action. It's a great time to ask God, your Angels or inner guides for signs, signals and support.

2. Let Love Lead the Way - If you do know clearly what must be changed or be done within a relationship and you feel compelled now to do it, lead with love and recognize first the magnitude of the decision and the full consequences of your actions before you make a move that could deeply hurt you or another. Endings are necessary to allow for new beginnings, but causing undo pain or suffering doesn't have to be part of the process.

3. Extra Rest is Best - If all else fails, sleep through it. Extra rest is always a healthy choice, however, a Full Moon can cause an emotional overwhelm in which clarity becomes impossible to reach. So especially at this time it can soothe, recharge and rejuvenate the heart and Soul. Also, much can be revealed through dreams during this time. So while resting pay close attention to what comes up and take note for later.

April 15th there is a Full Moon & Total Lunar Eclipse in Libra, opposite the Sun in Aries. These are the signs that rule Self and Other, so this puts even more emphasis on relationships! With the Sun in Aries we are really wanting to take action in our lives that will give us the freedom to play, to express who we truly are and to do what we want. The Full Moon and Mars retrograde both in Libra will be pulling the reins tight and forcing us to take others and the circumstances fully into account before making any big moves. This can be a good thing. It may even save us from ourselves.

And since this Total Lunar Eclipse occurs right in the face of the Cardinal Grand Cross configuration of Uranus/Mars opposition squaring off the Pluto/Jupiter opposition, it will likely bring you to a crossroads, turning point or crisis moment of some kind. However, this doesn't always have to manifest badly or be the proverbial ending of all endings. It could also bring your biggest wishes fulfilled or your deepest dreams come true...it may just take making some major decision or choice to have it.

Remember, as co-creators of our lives we often attract chaos and conflict because we innately desire change and progress and don't know how else to achieve it. So even if it seems bad at first, it's really all good! Hang in there, be patient, be kind, act fairly and stay tried and true to You! 

For your well Being!
