Brace yourself for a few cosmic shakeups on May 5.
The first lunar eclipse of 2023, which will also be a full moon, is set to happen on Friday, May 5 at 11:14 a.m. ET., which garnered its nickname from the buds that blossom this time of year. Because it'll be a penumbral eclipse, the moon will be touching the outer edge of earth, making the sighting fainter than a regular eclipse and easier to miss.
The eclipse will stir an exciting, but tempestuous period, as the cosmos are pushing us to accept our true selves. This astral season is the best time for growth, especially given that lunar eclipses have an astrological reputation for bringing matters to light, exposing areas of our lives that need to evolve for the better.
Astrologically, we are being asked to work through our past in order to open ourselves up to new adventures. This could mean facing our fears and dealing with prior trauma.The lunar eclipse will be visible over Asia, Australia, Africa, Eastern and Central Europe, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, perDue to the moon's position in the horizon, it will not be visible in North America, South America or the majority of Europe.
