The New Moon at 18 degrees of Taurus occurs this evening, Tuesday, May 7, 2024 at 8:22pm pst.
This is our first new moon after eclipse season and in the earthy sign of Taurus, it’s asking us to ground into the changes, epiphanies, and new paths that have opened up for us and build a more secure, authentic, and abundant future.
There is a wealth of supportive energy in this lunation for planting seeds of desire, and so the question that comes up for me is:
What do you want to invest in?
Wherever you place your intentions and energy is where you will reap your greatest rewards. The moon is exalted in Taurus, which means the ground is even more rich and fertile to grow your projects, wishes, and dreams. With Venus conjunct this lunation, in one of her home signs in Taurus, pursuing your passions, creative projects, and deepening the relationships you want to nurture and build upon could all be bolstered.
Uranus sitting close by this new moon may be asking you to break free of some of the traditional restraints that hold you back. Embrace the unexpected, out-of-the box ideas and intuitive hits that you feel in your body! Uranus reminds us that a seed needs to break open for the first roots and shoots to emerge in the soil.
Jupiter rounds out this powerful stellium of planets in Taurus, cozying up to this new moon and sprinkling some good luck, optimism, faith, and expansion. So much auspiciousness, but that’s not all…
Saturn in Pisces sextiles this lunation, providing it with the needed structure and planning to build long-term enduring success. Think in that Taurean fixed earth way, slow and steady wins the race!
The Sabian Symbol for this New Moon in Taurus is “A New Continent Rising Out of the Ocean” .
What intentions will you set for this new chapter to emerge, grow, and thrive?
Many New Moon Blessings to you,
xoxo Angelisa

A great read! Taurus rules my 5th house of creativity and children, and my wishes are definitely coming from that place! It feels like it’s activating the whole first quadrant of my natal chart in so many ways.
