Opportunity to build a new foundation: Taurus new moon

New moon in Taurus

This new moon in Taurus has the following major aspects:

  • Conjunct Mercury in Taurus
  • Conjunct Uranus in Gemini
  • Sextile Jupiter in Cancer
  • Sextile Neptune in Aries

This New Moon, depending on which house in your natal chart, will open a door to the opportunity to lay a more enduring foundation and point of presence and security in your life. This may come through a deeper analysis of your values and how you want to express them in the area of your chart as indicated when projected onto the nativity chart.

Pluto is trine the Mercury and Uranus conjunction helping us to really pull out old thought forms, extricate them by the roots; and, that is part of the process for laying the new foundation with the Taurus new moon. Uranus lends the archetype for out-of-the-box thinking and unusual inspiration.

With the Venus and Neptune square at this new moon, there’s still a question around what possibilities can exist for which delusions and illusions are influencing your experience, how to enlighten these remaining questions around relationships, finances and values, is rooted in beliefs and perceptual overlay (Neptune).

Overall this New Moon is like a welcome mat to the new domain of a more enduring and unshakeable foundation within your life, one that is palpable, concrete, and able to discern.

During a time with so much chaos, uncertainty and unknown, there’s a place within your life is inviting you deeper into your solid knowing and inner core. This can be further activated with Taurean themes such as music and vocalizing, using the voice and getting your hands deep into the soil/soul of a garden. This can be opening your senses further to the vibrations of the cosmos that are ever more permeating the Earth experience with more awareness at the collective level. Feeling out the dance steps to a favorite song can be another way to boost your knowing and embodied experience of this New Moon and strengthen its potential to help you manifest and experience more solid ground.

Many blessings! May all beings be free from suffering and the causes of suffering. May we all move closer to our authentic beingness with each lunation, as we are part of the process of the awakening for all. W

e are the one being, each uniquely flavored aspects of this on-going creation, fulfilling our purposes and sharing our experience as we can, will, and do. Blessed be. blessed be!

Clarify the basis in Self

This new moon is unique because it is conjoining Jupiter, just recently at Cazimi — an exact degree conjunction with the Sun. The new moon is therefore infused with Jupiterian energy. It is important to note that while this lunation is quite auspicious in benefic influences, it’s also in a potent pointed square with the challenging Saturn/Neptune conjunction in Aries.

Ideals and reality are colliding in uncomfortable ways to the dreams, visions and desire for peace and joy, abundance and plenty, radiating from the home and family front. There is also a sense of urgency.

But what is the sign Cancer for anyway? It’s traditionally associated with the home and the mother. Cancerians are long known to reflect upon the past and become attached to it. However, looking a bit deeper, the angle of the chart associated with Cancer is the Nadir/or low point. It’s the Imum Coeli (IC). It is the basis and the foundation in the traditional chart—that area from which we are planted and we are to stand.

I write to you now as the New Moon has just come off its exact moment and the clarity streaming through deposits my mind (as I am also experiencing my Mercury return as we speak) in complete clarity around this moon’s message.

Your basis for your life is a lot like your “why.” It’s deeply associated with your purpose. Your job is to check and tend to this area of your consciousness that props you up and look at the foundation. Does it need any crack-filling? Could it use another level of thickness? What is your daily mindset around comforts that nourish and replace your vitality? Have you been checking in on the mundane aspects of your ideals? It’s not the time to go out on a limb and go searching for what is already here.

The energy of Cancer lands us directly where we are planted to check for stability and resources. From where we are positioned do we have enough of our basic needs met? what actions can we take to ground our lives more deeply into commitment with our purpose?

As I sit with you here, I allow the energy to settle and flow through the soil and ground of my being. I breathe deep into the fortitude I have created to live in a modern world full of uncertainty. I stand firm with the awareness that I am not an island, and energies of nourishment and support continue to collect around me.

My wish for you this Cancer New Moon is that you take a look at your environment and anchor yourself into the awareness that you are here to live this special life you were given, with full purpose and inspiration. Any frictions are passing drains and distractions on clarity that will quickly be replaced with your own renewed presence, as you return to order and semblance, at the basis of your own being.

I’m available for consultations starting in the fall. If you want to come back and check for my offerings, it would be a good time to do it.

May you be happy. May all beings be happy!

With deep aloha and gratitude,

Ka
