New Moon in Taurus

The New Moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle—a time for planting seeds, setting intentions, and inward reflection. This phase offers an opportunity for fresh starts, where we pause to look within and clarify what we wish to manifest in the upcoming cycle. As the Moon is dark and invisible, it is a potent time for quiet intentions, laying the groundwork for what will grow in the coming weeks.

Taurus energy brings us back to the earth, reminding us of our need for stability, comfort, and sensual pleasure. Under this New Moon, the Taurean qualities of practicality, patience, and loyalty shine. This is the perfect time to focus on what brings you true, lasting comfort and security. It's a period for building practical plans that nurture both your physical and financial well-being.

Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, abundance, and love, so this energy also invites us to connect with our sensuality, appreciating the beauty in the world around us. Whether you find comfort in a warm bath, tending to your garden, or enjoying the bounty of your senses, Taurus teaches us how to build a life that is grounded, secure, and filled with pleasure.

Final Aspect – Moon in Aries sextile Jupiter

The Moon in Aries forms a final aspect of sextile to Jupiter before entering the sign of Taurus which brings an added layer of support for this New Moon. Sextiles are harmonious aspects that open doors to opportunity, growth, and positive expansion. This Jupiter energy leaves a signature of bold expansion and visionary momentum beneath the grounded Taurus New Moon. It encourages us to plant our intentions with faith, courage, and an eye toward long-term abundance.

This means that while the lunation itself takes place in stable, earthy Taurus, it carries the energetic residue of Aries fire and Jupiterian confidence—a potent combination for initiating something tangible, bold, and enduring.

This is an ideal time to expand your vision, not only in terms of finances and material resources but also in areas of personal growth and wisdom. You may find that this New Moon’s energy offers an easy flow of blessings and opportunities if you are aligned with your intentions.
