Hi Friends,

Tonight, a new moon in Taurus invites us to set new intentions as the sun and moon align in the sky, marking the start of a new cycle in our lives.

This is a good time to initiate new plans or advance existing ones to build a life that reflects the rich fertility and stability of Taurus.

Taurus influences our relationship with money and what we identify as our material resources, and its themes extend to:

• what we cherish and value,

• our deep attachments in both material and spiritual realms,

• our perceptions of beauty, peace, and harmony, and

• our creative fertility and the skills that support us materially.

In astrology, the Taurus house in our birth chart highlights where we encounter lessons in material security, self-love, self-worth, beauty, pleasure, lust and resourcefulness, among others.

A lush garden serves as the perfect metaphor for Taurus' fertile essence.

A friend recently shared about his love for gardening, explaining that the initial stages are the most challenging. Until a seedling is well-rooted, it requires delicate care and attention.

We are like those baby plants. This new moon in Taurus is good and fertile soil in which to grow firmly rooted.

Similarly, this new moon provides fertile ground for us to firmly root our intentions.

I’m leaning into the symbolism of this new moon by embodying the abundance of Taurus in my life.

Like a baby plant, I am taking care of myself with care. I am leaning into the resources I have in front of me to help stabilize and support me. I am shrouding myself in feelings of joy, optimism and positivity to the best of my ability this week. As I am typing this, I’m also sitting firmly planted barefoot on my deck listening to beautiful birds sing.

It feels like heaven on earth in this moment and I am grateful for the peaceful serenity of it.

No matter the challenges we face, you and I both have a lot of beautiful Taurus things happening in our lives. I embrace them with all my heart.

I pray you do the same.

A Cluster of Planets in Taurus Highlight Where You Can Bring Abundance, Ease, and Harmony in Your Life

While the sun hangs out in a zodiac sign, it puts a spotlight on the energy of that sign in our consciousness. With the sun in Taurus, we can feel a desire to assess our resources and strengthen them. We may identify ways to have a simpler more ease-filled life so that we have time to enjoy ourselves. We look at what we love and value and what we have become attached to. With the moon, Venus, Jupiter & Uranus also in Taurus now, the message is amplified.

The Sun is in Taurus, so we are in Taurus season. Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac (after Aries). It is a solid, feminine earth sign. In the zodiac, the solid signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) represent the middle and most stable and constant time of each season.

Taurus season occurs during the middle of spring in the Northern Hemisphere where daylight increases and the amount of daylight remains steady. Taurus is associated with things that are sturdy and constant and grow over time. These same resources can also bring more simplicity and abundance into our lives. Venusian themes are emphasized during Taurus season, so the urge to have fun, play and pleasure with the resources we have built and accumulated is tangible.

As an earth sign, Taurus is one of the builders of the zodiac. Wherever you have Taurus in your birth chart is where you are very resourceful. It is the area of life where new building blocks are coming together now so we can pursue our goals.

Energetic blocks that appeared during Aries season are slowly starting to disappear. The sun is currently co-present in Taurus with Venus (cohesion, harmony and attraction), Jupiter (expansion and ordering) and Uranus (freeing and liberating) so the Taurus themes in our lives are emphasized.

Tonight’s new moon in Taurus gives us an extra push.

New Moon in Taurus: Unveiling Resources to Propel Your Plans

When the moon moves through the sky it reflects what is happening in our subconscious minds. A new moon activates a new cycle in the Taurus part of our lives.

Tonight there is a new moon at 18’02° Taurus. New moons are when the moon is at its darkest in the sky. These lunations activate new cycles so they are considered positive times at which to make new plans and pursue them.

This new moon is supported by several cosmic alignments considered very favorable according to old school astrologers. Did you know that ancient astrologers believed that the moon is exalted (very fortunate) in Taurus? This is because moons in astrology are associated with fortune. One reason the moon was exalted in Taurus is due to the long periods of daylight during Taurus season. Things grow well during Taurus season because there's more light.
