Astrology for Healing and Transformation with Katie Sweetman
The Virgo Moon gets us started this week and, along with the Taurus Sun, it’s all about element earth. It’s a day to be practical, to build, organize, and pay attention to the details. A trine from Saturn gives us a boost, too, provided we step up to responsibility.
We’ve got a lovely Leo Moon to start the weekend, a Moon that likes to play, have fun, and create. We’re also coming up to the first quarter moon, which means that whatever story the May 4 new moon began is ready for its dramatic closeup.
Happy Taurus New Moon! This is the lunar month when we turn our attention to the ground beneath our feet. Taurus is the first earth sign and it teaches us all about the material world, from money and resources to food and anything we need physically to live.
Today’s Libra Moon mixes with Venus in Scorpio plus a dash of Pluto to give us a day focused on relationships, trust, power, and intimacy. Our interactions may be a bit pointed or push us to examine our hidden motivations as well as the motivations of others.
Happy Virgo New Moon! This is the time of the year when we turn our attention to work, projects, and the daily grind. As the sign of purity, Virgo also connects us to themes health, diet, nutrition.
This is the time of the year when we shine a light on all the things that make us uncomfortable — intimacy, sexuality, trust, power, money, and vulnerability. Although not an easy sign, Scorpio is a necessary sign, teaching us about the transient qualities of life.
Today is power day. Use it wisely! With the Sun in Taurus picking up support from Pluto in Capricorn, it’s about money, stability, and securing our material needs. But the sky is a little unstable at the moment. Don’t be surprised if the day throws you the unexpected.
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.
