Taurus New Moon – 27 April

The new moon always signals a new chapter. The Moon’s cycle is quick – 28 days. So we need to think of these cycles as steps in a bigger process. Taurus wants safety and security. This is a fixed earth sign. We are encouraged to slow down and smell the roses. Find ways to ground ourselves.

There is an incredible intensity with this new moon as it forms a T Square with Mars and Pluto. This is difficult and explosive. It’s all about power, control and aggression. Think power versus force. Are you pushing for something that’s not possible? Perhaps you need to surrender and let go? This opposition was exact on 3 Nov 2024 and 3 Jan 2025. This is the final exact opposition. What was going on during this period? This could give you some clues. It’s time to make a change. Let go or push ahead?

These planets connect to Venus, Saturn and North Node. Venus is always associated with love and money. Saturn asks about your commitments and responsibilities. Do you remain committed to your relationship? Venus and Saturn will soon move into Aries. Things might become more difficult and tough decisions will need to be made.

This is a time of endings and beginnings. We need to close a chapter to be able to start the next chapter.
