We wake up feeling a sense of anticipation and excitement under the Taurus New Moon. Good luck is on our side when the moon meets Jupiter this morning. Allow yourself to dream big and assume the best. The pace slows this afternoon when the moon connects with Neptune at the 29th degree, giving us an opportunity to create a fertile space for relaxation. Delusional fantasies could come to mind- give yourself permission to play with imagination. When the Waxing Crescent Moon enters Gemini this evening, we can use our mind to process our emotions. Writing or speaking about our new moon intentions can help them take root. Our words have the power to fuel the transformation process that is unfolding.

It’s a good day to feel good! Venus enters Taurus this morning, making us eager to indulge in the earthly pleasures life has to offer. Our experience feels a little more delicious today. Meanwhile, the Capricorn brings us to an emotional turning point. We may have to negotiate between our head and our heart; our past and our future; to fully release what no longer serves us. But by tonight, the changes we’re undergoing will feel more like an upgrade than an upset. Embracing the unknown can be empowering!

Get higher. As Mars meets Neptune in Pisces, we can tap into our sense of imagination to find the motivation to keep pushing forward. If we can dream it, we can become it.

The moon continues her trip through Sagittarius, taking us on a ride. There’s great potential for healing today if we recognize the power of having fun and feeling pleasure. Release can come naturally when we allow ourselves to simply enjoy the human experience. But moving too quickly could result in accidental hurt when the moon squares Lilith. A seemingly harmless quip or mindless move could land more harshly than anticipated. Slow down and be intentional with how you relate to others. Late tonight, it will feel especially pleasurable to indulge in the body’s desires and relax.

Let your hair down and release. The Sagittarius moon reminds us that life is meant to be enjoyed.

And we’ll have plenty of motivation to back up our mindset this morning as the Scorpio moon harmonized with Mars. It’s go time!

The Waning Gibbous moon enters Sagittarius this evening, renewing our sense of optimism and reminding us to let our hair down and have fun.

We’re breaking free! As Jupiter and Uranus move through Taurus together, they come into a harmonious trine with Black Moon Lilith. Our need for freedom and expression are amplified now. We may feel an overwhelming desire to unleash the parts of ourselves that have been stifled or repressed. But be mindful about how you express what’s been hidden in the shadows. Claiming our sovereignty can also be perceived as dominating or being mean. The Scorpio Full Moon only adds to the intense (and bitchy) energy. If you notice yourself trying to control or manipulate others, get honest about where that tendency really stems from. Remember: the best way to take back your power is to control yourself.

The Scorpio Full Moon completes a T-Square to Pluto and the sun, illuminating uncomfortable truths. What have you been hiding from? It will be difficult to ignore under the light of this potent and transformative full moon. Embrace the darkness and allow what no longer serves you to be purged. Only then can you rise like a phoenix from the ashes.

Mars enters Leo in bold fashion, immediately opposing Pluto in Aquarius! There’s plenty of passion to work with today and impulses will be difficult to ignore. Power plays and compulsive actions are certainly possible, but at its best, this transit can give us the determination and grit to take our goals to completion. We have the stamina of a warrior today and the will power to win whatever battle we’re facing. Just remember- not everyone is your competition!

By taking a closer look at our pain, we could find an avenue for healing. New beginnings are starting to unfold.

Eclipse season officially comes to a close under the New Moon in Taurus. We can use the grounded energy of this new moon to take slow and steady steps forward.

In total darkness, it becomes easier to see the light. The Taurus moon is in her darkest phase today, inviting us to find clarity in stillness. Meanwhile, the sun gets support from Neptune, helping us soften our perception and open to spiritual insights. Our intuition is heightened, we just have to get quiet enough to listen. Late tonight, another sextile between Mercury and Saturn helps us begin to make sense of the lessons we’ve been learning through Mercury Retrograde. Staying grounded and open is key.

We have a need… a need to succeed! As Jupiter makes a rare square to Pluto, we can experience compulsions to share our beliefs or find new avenues for growth. But it’s all too easy for greed and manipulation to take over during this transit too. If you find yourself focusing on others, challenge yourself to turn inward and dig deeper into your own psyche instead. The dark moon enters Taurus, encouraging us to slow down and ground into nature. As this moon cycle ends, we’re asked to surrender to stillness.
