Although life’s been moving at a leisurely pace with the Sun and Venus in Taurus plus retrograde planets, we’re in the build up to Saturday’s fiery full moon in Sagittarius — a sign that’s been getting a lot of play lately between Mars and Saturn. As a result we’ve been deeply working through themes of faith and truth. What does it all mean? How do we use philosophy to construct our world view?

Happy Monday! We’re in the last few days of Taurus season, a time when we look to nature, fruit, sensuality, and the bounty of life. Of course Taurus encompasses other expressions — loyalty, value, the things we own — but we need to understand its place within the 12 zodiac signs. If Aries is the spark of life, then Taurus, the following sign, shows how that spark is impregnated into the fertile earth.

Today Mercury and Pluto harmonize, giving us an opportunity to get to the heart of something. Pluto has a habit of showing us uncomfortable truths. Like a light in the dark, use today as well as the next couple of days to take a deep look at value, worth, and how our choices sabotage stability and security.

Jupiter turns direct today! In case you didn’t know, we had five planets in retrograde motion. It’s not uncommon to have four retrograde planets at a time, but what made this period a little unusual is that both Mercury and Mars, two personal planets, were retrograde.

New Moon in Taurus: Fertility

New moons are new beginnings. They open up a lunar month that will unfold according to the archetypes seeded in the new moon. And what’s Taurus about? Sweetness. Pleasure. Sensuality. Taurus takes it slow. It enjoys every flavor, smell, and bite.

Friday’s Taurus New Moon will open up a lunar month seeded with the energies of fertility, sweetness, abundance, harvest, power, and rebirth. There’s a potential over the coming four weeks for a powerful reset. All the retrograde planets hint that there are many components that are both out of our control and remnants of our past.

Feeling emotional? The Moon’s been in sensitive Pisces since Sunday, a sign that touches on feeling and empathy as well as universality, spirituality, inspiration, and the cosmic ocean.

Happy Monday! Two things to keep on your radar this week. One, we’re five days away from the Taurus New Moon. This means that we’re in the end of the lunar cycle, a time that tends to be quieter and reflective as we prepare for the next lunar month — […]

While Mercury Retrograde is a time to reexamine our choices, the retrograde in Taurus will prompt us to look at what we value as well. What are we choosing? Is it in alignment with our values? Have we gotten away from our values?
