Just as the sun moves into Taurus the moon is joining it in the very early degrees of the first earth sign of the zodiac. And how very appropriate, considering that the following day is Earth Day. What’s more, the moon is exalted in Taurus, making this an especially powerful time for manifestation.
Taurus is the most sensual sign of the zodiac. That is, the Bull is the most concerned with the senses – the physical senses – and being ruled by Venus, it wants the good stuff: Beauty in sight, smell, sound, taste, and touch. Taurus gives you permission stubbornly demands that you pay homage to and appreciate our earthly existence.
As people who study metaphysical matters and give credence to our spiritual lives, it’s possible that we neglect the physical, or even denigrate it as inferior or unnecessary. There might even be guilt for harboring physical desires. It’s time to do away with this notion. Matter might be energy that is lower in vibration, but it is energy still. It is light. It is love. There’s a reason you, reader, are in this world at this time. Embrace it.
Every new moon is a good time to plant the seeds of manifestation; and with the new moon in Taurus that can be a literal action! If you, like me, have been a little slow on getting your garden started this year DO IT NOW! Use the rich, earthy energy of Taurus to imbue your seed and seedlings with stable fertility and abundance. Of course, you might be more interested in bucks than basil. Or perhaps it’s new love you want. These, too, are completely appropriate.
So be aware of your thoughts and set your intentions right now. Decide what you want and imagine each of your senses enjoying your impending manifestations. If you’d like to use the assistance of tools like gemstones or candles, pick those that are pink or green. images: eastbayastro.org, sunncity.com
