Yesterday night was the “Hunter’s” FULL MOON in Taurus and a lunar partial eclipse.
There is a strong energy felt by both individuals and the collective and this transit will have a long lasting influence in our lives.
I am (obviously) not an astrologer, but often look at the links between the planetary activities and the influence it has on human behaviours
This transit signals the end of a Taurus/Scorpio cycle over a two years period of growth and changes, and you might already feel this in your personal life, as well as seeing it in the collective.
What were you up to in November 2021? What project, relationship, friendship, job have you been pouring your energy into?
You might be currently feeling a weight lifting off your shoulders as that particular thing is losing its power over your life and being released.
You can expect cycles to close, and others to open. This is an unsettling process, as the fear of the unknown is a program running in our minds since birth.
This is felt particularly by the people who have Taurus as their moon, sun or Venus placement.
It is a time of great transformation for us all, but might put you in a state of resistance or “swim or sink” energy.
Taurus is ruled by Venus-planet of Love-and the Goddess of Beauty and pleasure that governs our sense of value, our relationship to money, and our sense of “aesthetic”.
Taurus sign is known for…
- Being stable, perseverant and often referred to as the “most stubborn sign of the zodiacs”
- Disliking changes (!!!)Taurus needs stability and can be very resistant to changes. This full moon is an invitation to observe which domains are affected and what you have to let go off to positively transform.
- Being an EARTH sign-Taurus is connected to nature, and finds peace and comfort in simple terrestrial pleasures. They also tend to nurture a solid anchor into stable grounds in the way they live and treat others; This solidity makes them a “ride or die” friend and one of the most stable signs to be around. It also gives them a natural ability to withhold emotionally the strong winds of life’s challenges.
- Being Associated with sensory pleasures: Taurus has a strong attraction for the “good things in life”, and a tendency to indulge in good food, art, nature and sensual pleasures: This is why you might be tempted to bury yourself in excesses at the moment.
This full moon is an occasion to reconnect with Earth, by meditating outdoors, with crystals or just walk in nature. If you are already familiar with any grounding practice, join me (a Taurus Sun and Moon!!-) and walk on natural grass or hug trees!!
- Valuing material/financial security : This full moon might push you to review the way your values can affect your well-being and to try to find a balance between these two.
What makes this full moon special is that it is associated with a lunar eclipse.
Eclipses are always considered as moments of change and transformation in astrology. They act like cosmic portal that open and allow us to go from one phase of our life to the next.
This eclipse in Taurus is encouraging us to
- Let go ( and let “grow” or even “let God”, if this fits your beliefs… LET GO of what no longer serves our experience. This could be unhealthy behaviours, belief-systems or ships (relation, friend, partner, situation- fill the gap!!) that go against our personal growth.
- Open new doors: Eclipses are associated with next opportunities and positive changes. They push us to explore new possibilities, embrace self-confidence and get out of our comfort zone.
- Reflect on our emotional security: Taurus value safety and this transit can help us to examine our boundaries and ability or inability to relax and feel at ease emotionally.
This is a great time to remember to practice mindfulness (within and without; Your self-talk matters!). Up your self-care, and remember to breathe through!
Please remember that if you feel extra energetic/high, or extra low with extreme fluctuations in your moods within the next 3 days…THIS TOO SHALL PASS 😉
With much Love…
