Hello Beautiful beings
Here is my TAURUS NEW MOON 2010 Lunascope…Enjoy the Ride….Yeeeehhaa! for the full Lunascope - subscribe here
Things are still pretty intense for many of us, as we simultaneously face some of our deepest fears and greatest dreams. The Scorpio Moon brought up hidden feelings and emotions and some us of us we were able to finally find clarity and resolution on a particular issue.
The past few Moons have helped us face our challenges and fears head on, and see the balance of the positive and negative, as well as taking responsibility for everything that we are experiencing. Once we acknowledge our own behaviours we can change everything that is no longer working in our lives.
Now we are heading towards the Taurus New Moon – the Moon for finding peace and contentment within ourselves rather than searching for it in the external world. Taurus reminds us that everything is just a reflection of our inner state and the more we are calm, clear, and focused the more we see this in our external world.
For anyone that had a traumatic experience last month this new Moon encourages us to start afresh with renewed energy and commit to our personal goals, especially as Mercury finally changes direction this week. Remain grounded on what you want to achieve.
Taurus gives us the opportunity to find our inner ’safe place.’ After the turmoil of the last Moon phase, where many of us ended or shifted relationships, work, or life changes, it’s time to find our feet again in this new cycle.
The good news is that Mercury moves forward on Tuesday 11th May. For many this Mercury Retrograde has been a very powerful time to reflect and take stock on past decisions that have been made. Now we can move forward with renewed energy, clarity and courage. The key is to trust that the right doors will open at the right time.
Taurus shows us just how rooted, or asks us to get more rooted, in our passion and creativity. Make this a time to ‘keep on keeping on.’ Taurean energy re-focuses and strengthens our tenacity, helping us remain steadfast, despite chaos in the external world. In other words, this Moon strengthens our commitment to projects and creative endeavours.
Love and Blessings

NEW MOON IN TAURUS – Friday 14th May @ 1:04am GMT
The Scorpio energy ushered in a time of change, illuminating our underlying intentions, and the areas in our lives where we are not living in integrity. For many the truth was finally revealed and with the clarity we have gained we can fully utilise the energy of Taurus. It unleashes our creativity and passion, as we pass the Spring cross quarter point and head towards the Summer Solstice on 21st June – the longest day.
The Taurus New Moon asks us: ´With all the clarity I have now gained, how can I best ground my dreams and visions and create them in reality?´
Taurus energises us to become pro-active and galvanises us to rise above the sometimes suffocating feelings of helplessness and desperation, with renewed faith. It helps us ground our visions by strengthening our roots and makes us stubborn and steadfast in our commitment to our dreams.
Taurus can reignite passion and inspire us to do something positive for the world. We have spent the last few months releasing mental and emotional blockages. Now is the time to move into the flow of action and change the things that no longer serve us.
This Moon helps us to see the sacred in the material world, and the beauty that is all around us, despite the difficulties we may be going through. Things will continue to be revealed throughout the month, encouraging and empowering us to awaken to the truth and find the strength to create change from within.
Taurean energy is not limited by the fear of not having enough, but instead will go out into the market place and create abundance. Utilise this energy to trust your intuition and follow your heart and not your fears, while keeping your intentions clear and focused.
Use the high idealism, determination, and focus of this Taurus Moon, as fuel to be the best you can be, with confidence and self-worth, and an inner certainty that you can achieve anything you want to. This is also a great time to start getting fit, quit any addictive habits, ask for a pay rise, leave a job that is not fulfilling you or make that empowering change in your life!!
Listen to your inner voice, as it will be stronger over this Moon and you will be able to make decisions with more clarity. When we stop following rational, mechanistic right brain thinking, we begin to see how essential the subtle intuitive side of ourselves really is.
This Taurus Moon is also sensual and passionate and reminds us to enjoy the long summer days and warm nights. Make the most of this time of growth and regeneration. Nature is our reflection so find hope and inspiration, as everything is lush and green and full of promise, even when things are looking turbulent. Remember to look out for the rainbows in your life, because somewhere in the sky the sun is always shining, even when there is rain.
I will end this Lunascope with the wise words of Anais Nin
“There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
TAURUS NEW MOON RITUAL
This is a time for stillness after the celebrating of the Scorpio full Moon.
On the new moon find some time to stop, meditate and be in silence.
When you have completed all your tasks for the day and you are ready to give time to yourself find a quiet space, turn off the lights, light a candle and burn incense to calm the mind. Sit in a comfortable position with your back straight. Close your eyes and become aware of your body. Connect deeply and slowly with your toes, legs, thighs, torso, arms, neck, face and then crown. Exhale all your stresses and release all your frustrations - just breathe them right out of your body. Repeat this process three times. Make sure you are feeling relaxed and stress free.
Write down what makes you feel safe and secure. What makes you happy? What is your passion? What makes your heart race and your blood flow? Who are you? Writing these down will add power to your intentions. Share your fears and dreams with others. Be open to others to help you if you need to make some changes but don’t know how. Stay strong and true to your dreams however far away they may seem.
Spend the coming two weeks of the waxing moon following your intuition. If you are feeling particularly brave and courageous, make a leap and leave an unfulfilling job or relationship to follow your passion. Taurus reminds us that life can only be really enjoyed when we are doing what we love.
This is the moon to make love, be loved and give love. Celebrate this period of movement and growth. To really enjoy this time of intense yet exciting fertility, allow everything to happen, say YES! releasing any fear, doubt or resistance and flow with the momentum, as it unfolds.
Remember that all intentions are fulfilled – whatever they are. Overall, this is the time to become really clear on what your goals are - and trust that you will achieve them.
Everything is possible!
Love and Blessings
