The new moon in Taurus will be happening at 11:21 pm on May 7th.
During the new moon, Saturn will be making a supportive trine. Venus will be at home in Taurus, and Mars is in Aries. Making this month much lighter and smooth in comparison to April. The link to Saturn makes this new moon especially rewarding if we have been consistently working towards some goal.

Taurus is the sign of the land and all of its physical gifts. Taurus is spring sustained, where the world is alive, fresh, and born again. Taurus are the roots that take hold in the fertile soil giving us food to nourish our hearts and bodies. Taurus is the bloom that paints the world in a full spectrum.
When we we experience the new moon in Taurus its a time to sow new seeds in our hearts, minds, and bodies. Over the next couple weeks as we work with the energy of this lunation, by leaning into the things that make you feel prosperous and abundant. What this might look like it honoring going at the right pace, taking time to appreciate things around you, and surrounding yourself with people and things that help you feel at peace.
Simultaneously we are learning how to integrate the events of the Aires solar eclipse back in April. Where we learned how important it was to define who you are as an individual and accept yourself wholly. We ingrain those lessons by leaning into the energy of Taurus. Which requires us to commit to what we say and do with who we are. What this means what ever truth we learned about ourselves, be need to commit to feed that part of ourselves so that can take root and bloom into something beautiful.
Saturn forming a sextile with this new moon provides additional support as we navigate the energy. When Saturn sextiles the moon there can be a materialization of our emotional desires, or a more objective view of reality. If you are still feeling lost in the sauce with the eclipse energy and can’t find a way to understand the energy of the eclipse, trust your senses at this time they will tell you what needs to be done. This can be for the negative emotions as well as the positive ones. For example, if you feel a sense of shame for not doing something you told yourself you were going to do, that is your sign to get up and do it.
Keep in mind that Taurus’ goal is prosperity. Long term prosperity is a product of sustainable actions and behaviors that get you your desired outcome. If you want to be financially stable do you have a regular ritual where you allocate money so you always have something when you need it? If you want to invite long and happy love into your life do you show up and love your self every day? If you want to improve your health are you taking the necessary steps to take care of what your body needs?
