New Moon in Taurus: Time to Lay a Foundation


On April 26th 2017 (5:16 AM PST) there will be a New Moon in Taurus. Slow and steady will be the theme with this one as Mercury is still retrograde. 

As the Moon wanes we might be more contemplative and reclusive than usual. Then once the Moon hits that dark New Moon point it's time to plant your seeds and watch the new beginnings bloom in your life. Of course this New Moon we have to take it slow because Mercury is still retrograde. We can still get the ball rolling however for when it does go direct. 

With the New Moon in Taurus it's a great time to really build some foundations in your life and to plan for the things you would like to create. Taurus is very grounded in the material plane as a fixed earth sign, so perhaps there may be some new beginnings coming to fruition for some people in the material plane. Venus rules Taurus, so now that Venus is direct there could be some new beginnings in the relationship stories that have been unfolding and affecting everyone differently. 

Around the New Moon there are a couple aspects to note. One is that Mercury is about to conjunct Uranus. This may bring some unexpected things to the table as you are trying to build new things into your life. Unexpected bits of information could surface that could change the direction you go in. This could have to do with something from the past since Mercury is in retrograde. 

The second aspect is a square between Chiron and Saturn. This may bring with it some vulnerability and sensitivity. Some people may be feeling hurt as some wounds resurface. This could also make some people feel lonely or isolated. Saturn keeps squaring planets lately and bringing up that kind of feeling. So there is just a need to acknowledge that and work through it and try to deal with our wounds as they come up. Healing our wounds is an important part of building a foundation for wonderful things in our life during this New Moon phase.

~New beginnings are right around the corner in our lives. We've been dealing with some intense retrograde energy since March and once May hits we will finally be able to move forward. This New Moon is what gets the ball rolling. It's time to lay the foundations for what we would like to see in our lives. ~
