New Moon in Taurus - May 7, 2024 11:22 PM, EDT

After the intensity of the recent Full Moon, Taurus season revels in the beauty of the natural world and calls us into a realm of sensory richness, emotional grounding and renewal with the New Moon in Taurus. Offering us fertile soil for planting the seeds of our intentions, this is the lunar phase of new beginnings, to nurture our desires, solidify our foundations and cultivate the patience to see our dreams bloom into reality.

The ruling planet of Taurus is Venus, the Goddess of beauty, love, equilibrium and relaxation. Currently in the sign of Taurus, Venus sits on one side of this New Moon increasing the harmonious and balancing potential of this Moon phase. On the other side of the New Moon is Uranus and Jupiter both in Taurus, increasing optimism and opportunities, sometimes unexpected for more substantial and authentic growth. Overall, this stellium of down to earth Taurus energy encourages us to take stock of what we need and what appeals to us; experiences and things that bring us pleasure, comfort and enhance our sense of security and abundance.

Teaching us the power of perseverance is Saturn in Pisces motivating this New Moon phase with energizing support. With a serious yet compassionate push, Saturn’s message is realistic and spiritually inspired; opportunities for emotional well-being, creativity and material sustainability are available, but require us to use wisdom, intuition, adaptability and disciplined sustained effort for the results to take form in our lives. This lesson of Saturn and applying it will be especially important to keep our footing in the very near future when Jupiter and Venus will enter Gemini on May 25, 2024. Additional changes and options will begin to unfold where steady adjustments and flexibility will be needed. 

This New Moon is an auspicious time for setting intentions related to personal growth, financial stability, and the cultivation of loving and lasting relationships. The energy of Taurus urges us to consider what truly matters, to invest our time and resources into what will bring lasting value to our lives. It's a call to honor ourselves, to ask for what we need, and to trust in the abundance of the universe.

During this lunar phase of new beginnings we are called to slow down, to connect deeply with the Earth, our physical senses and body wisdom and to appreciate the simple joys that life offers. It's a reminder of the strength found in stillness, the clarity that comes from reflection, and the importance of self-care and self-worth.

Work with the energies of this New Moon in Taurus with an open heart and spirit of gratitude. Let this be a time to relish in the beauty that surrounds us, to build a foundation of stability, peace, and prosperity. May we move forward with the calm determination and steadfastness of Taurus, grounded in our truth, nurtured by our dreams, and ever mindful of the bountiful blessings that await us.
