The new moon is on Friday 19th May 2023, and we are in the earth sign of Taurus.
Taurus
(the Bull)
In fact, the Sun (outward expression), Moon (inner voice/intuition), Mercury (communication), Jupiter (expansion), Uranus (eccentricity) and the North Node (what we need to work on to grow spiritually) are all in Taurus.
New moons call us to go inward and become thoughtful as we have the opportunity to reset our intentions and plans for the coming month.
‘Beauty is truth, truth beauty’
– Keats
The Jungian archetype of Taurus is that of both the sensual lover and the practical farmer.
Taurus energy points us to the earth around us, to appreciate and love beauty and to be grateful for the abundance of the earth.
Taurus is a stable energy, the energy of grounded ‘non-hurriedness’. As we have been experiencing much energetic upheaval recently, now is the time to stop, feel the physical sensations in our bodies and work with the organic cycles of nature.
Journal Question :
How can I connect to nature and to myself in a deeper way?
Enjoy the little things
Here are some suggestions to help you to get started:
- Touch, feel, taste, see and listen to the world around.
- Breathe in, breathe out and ‘stop and smell the roses’.
- Stand with bare feet on the ground and feel the earth or grass beneath.
- Listen to water flowing (sea, river, stream, the rain)
- Appreciate the feel of your own skin.
- Feel the warmth of the sun on your skin.
- Smell fresh bread or flowers.
- Watch a sunrise or a sunset or a bird soaring on the thermals.
Wishing you much light and love as always
