Taurus New Moon: Preserve The Wilderness Inside

On April 19th, the sun transitioned from passionate Aries into grounded Taurus. When someone refers to their zodiac sign they’re actually (whether they know it or not) referencing the zodiac sign the sun was in at the time of their birth. As astrologers, it is what we know as someones Sun sign.  ☽ So, happy birthday to all born under a Taurus Sun!  ☽ Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac, ruled by the planet Venus, and the earth element.

We may be drenched from Scorpio’s waters, soaking in our new understandings that Sag now invites us to celebrate. We were in Scorpios sunless, obsidian valley and now we’re on Sag’s lustrous, carnelian peak, hopefully seeing from new heights and broader perspectives with eyes-wide-open. ☽ Scorpio is contraction while Sagittarius is expansion. Scorpio asked for emotional honesty so we could answer the archers call and stand tall in our truth. Before we can stand firmly in…
