Practical Magic: Manifest With The New Moon in Taurus 

After a hectic Aries season, the New Moon in Taurus signals a welcome new phase of the astrological year, encouraging us to slow down and tune in to our senses. The Taurus New Moon brings a practical earthy energy, urging us to pay attention to our bodies, our bank balances and the environment that surrounds us. 

Here’s what the Taurus New Moon means for you and the rest of the zodiac…

Get Grounded: The Spiritual Meaning of the New Moon in Taurus

Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac, representing stability, security, sensibility and stubbornness. Although Taurus likes to move at a slower pace, this is a sign that works hard and digs in their heels to get what they want. 

Earth sign Taurus is ruled by glamorous Venus and the energy of this planet is all about sensuality, aesthetics and pleasure. So the stereotype of the ‘boring bull’ is not quite accurate, as Taurus only slows down enough to indulge in life’s luxuries. Sex, shopping, singing, eating and drinking are all favourite Taurus activities. 

If Taurus has a fault, it’s that they don’t know when to say ‘enough’. Greed is good can often be a mantra of the Taurus who enjoys excess!

The Taurus New Moon presents us with an opportunity to explore our senses: sight, smell, sound, taste and touch. On this earthy new moon, pay attention to what your body is telling you, particularly your throat, and use this intuition to guide you. 

When the New Moon falls in Taurus, it illuminates the 2nd House of the zodiac, encouraging us to slow down and focus on finances, self-worth and values. Your property, possessions and personal price tag are all ruled by Taurus and the 2nd House, so this is an ideal time to review this area of your life and set some intentions for improvement. 

If you have personal planets in Taurus then you may feel the energy of this new moon more than most. Check the date of the next New Moon in Taurus and prepare to manifest some magic!
