New Moon in Taurus

We made it through a Full Moon Eclipse and a Grand Cross in April, and now we emerge renewed! 

Tonight is a New Moon in Taurus. This ushers in a time of crystallization and stability from the huge upheaval and growth of the last few weeks.






Aries:  The Ram

      Your solar return (birthday) is over for another year Aries! Your ruler, Mars, is about to go Direct after MONTHS of second guessing in Libra. Lots of energy will be available to you! Wait until May 20 to charge forth into new ideas and projects. With the Sun's entrance into Taurus, it's time to get down to brass tacks... especially tacking money to your wall.

Taurus:  The Bull

      The Sun in your sign makes you shine! Your Ruler, Venus, is in Pisces giving you enhanced sensitivity and creativity, and Mercury in Taurus helps you get your ideas across to people. With Pluto in Capricorn trining the Sun, you can make huge evolutionary strides right now!  Deep cathartic change will beam to your Sun from Pluto in Capricorn. You might look and feel completely different when the Sun leaves your sign May 20th.

Gemini:  The Twins

      From now until June is preparation time for your birthday. The Taurean Sun will send bright light to the dusty corridors of your mind, bringing fresh air to perspectives you've outgrown. We all know how sociable you are, but give yourself some moments of solitude in the upcoming weeks. Long walks on hillsides contemplating your life and direction will recharge your batteries. Your ruling planet, Mercury, is currently in earthy Taurus. So while the Sun is lighting things up, Mercury will be helping you crystallize your ideas.

Cancer:  The Crab

      You will have a very easy time over the next month. The Taurus action will be affecting your 11th House of Friendships and community. Lots of possibilities for socializing and career will be popping up all over the place. On top of that you have Jupiter raining good luck and prosperity down on you until July! Now is the time to go for it and take risks.

Leo:  The Lion

      The Lion is one of the most ambitious signs of the zodiac, and over the next two months opportunities will abound in your professional life. Plus Jupiter (good fortune) is entering LEO in July for a two year stay. This summer you will shine brighter than ever! Also, Uranus (sudden surprises) will be trining Jupiter giving you gifts of revelation, understanding and Buddha wisdom. Now is the time to wrap up loose ends and decide where you want to launch yourself on your upcoming birthday.

Virgo:  The Virgin

       This month you are rocking it! You have the Sun and Mercury in Taurus sending you light, clarity and focus, and Pluto in Capricorn supporting your evolution. It's a great time to forge new bonds with people and pursue opportunities. Do some journaling and meditation because the revelations about your life will come thick and fast! A transformative couple of months directly ahead.

Libra:  The Scales

      A huge growth period began in early December last year when Mars entered Libra.  You've had to be strategic with your energy for months now. In late May Mars will move forward in your sign unleashing tons of energy for you. You can finally make a lot of progress. In the meantime, Mercury in Taurus will put your focus on work situations and the evaluation of agreements with others.

Scorpio:  The Scorpion

        When the Sun goes into Taurus, like it's doing now, the spotlight shines on Scorpio's relationships. The focus becomes the "other" - our romantic relationships and friendships as well. Jupiter (planet of good fortune) is also moving through Cancer, our house of Life Perspective. Now is the time to solidify an existing relationship, or to get out and socialize more

Sagittarius:  The Archer

      Jupiter is your ruler and symbolizes good fortune and prosperity. He is currently lighting up your House of Other People's Money. YES you guessed it, that's super good news for you! Plus Mercury and the Sun are lighting up your House of Work and Habits which is more good news. It's a great time to figure out how your energy can best be focused and then setting a new schedule to make it happen. Sagittarians love to set goals - now is the time to do some research and groundwork because next month will be all about Love.

Capricorn:  The Goat

      With Mercury and the Sun in Taurus, you are inspired to pay some attention to your romantic life. And with Jupiter (good fortune) in your partnership house, you are meeting all types of helpful people as well as finding big opportunities!

      Meanwhile you still have a powerful friend by your side for the next 10 years, and that friend is the planet Pluto. The last time Pluto entered Capricorn it was the birth of our nation, so this is a revolutionary time indeed! You are going through a deep evolutionary change regarding how you envision yourself.

Aquarius:  The Water Bearer

      Your ruler, Uranus is in Aries and has been stirring stuff up BIG TIME for the last month. Are you feeling more forceful, assertive and spontaneous? Your highly attuned Aquarian synapses are shooting off new inventions and unorthodox ideas with lightning speed.

     With Mercury currently in Taurus, with the Sun, it's a great time for you to take a practical look at your living arrangements. Take stock and implement changes where necessary. This will be going on through May.

Pisces:  The Fishes

      Well the heavens have a special gift for you right now - Venus AND Neptune in your sign! This makes you immensely popular, intuitive and artistic. You are capable of writing full symphonies now instead of your usual little sing-a-longs. Jupiter (good fortune) in Cancer is also sending you expansive positive vibes! And Saturn in Scorpio helps you REALLY manifest your lovely visions. You are a force to be reckoned with - especially through June.
