THE MOON:
🌖 WANING GIBBOUS MOON IN TAURUS ♉️
The waning moon in Taurus asks us to slow down and relax. This is the point in the moon’s cycle when we shed what no longer serves us. Taurus energy asks us to check in with our values and resources and release anything not aligned or supportive for our next chapter. Clearing out our physical surroundings or allowing our body to simply rest are wonderful ways to lean into this moon phase.
♉️ MOON SQUARE ♌️ VENUS (7º) 9:00 AM PT
Feeling needy today? The luxurious Taurus moon squares passionate Venus in Leo, giving us an intense urge to feel pleasure. We’ll crave bodily touch and physical comfort. This transit can make us a little lazy and overindulgent, but with Leo energy in the mix, there’s potential for fireworks. Just be careful not to get too heated- this aspect is notorious for causing relationship drama. Watch your spending today as well. We’re prone to frivolous spending as a means to feel good.
✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
The Taurus moon tells the story today, asking us to slow down and relax. Under the waning moon, we can begin to shed anything that no longer aligns with our values or supports our next chapter. Allow your body to be your guide. The only connection the moon makes is a square to Venus this morning, making us feel needy and overindulgent. We’re quick to feel good by any means, whether through comfort food, physical touch, or frivolous spending. With the moon in the sign of the bull, it will be easy to luxuriate in laziness. But tense or fiery moments are also possible in relationships as the moon clashes with the planet of love. Being stubborn or unwilling to share resources could cause drama. Watch your spending today as well. We’re more likely to make impulse purchases under this aspect.
