Taurus Full Moon

A moon ‘full’ of Taurus helps us explore what we need to feel safely grounded in the world.

Taurus is energy that thrives on inner stillness and on sensual gratification. It would love to leave work early and head home to make a delicious and aromatic stew. It may have you yearning to wander to the park or into the woods . . . anywhere you can fill yourself with the over-arching presence of all the natural beauty that surrounds you.

Keep it simple, says Taurus. Walk out into your yard and look at the way the tree branches sketch the sky. Notice how light is creating the countless colors in that single leaf.

Sometimes all we have to do is pick up a smooth stone and notice its simple magnificence, or bury our face in the fur of a beloved animal, or maybe we allow ourselves a detour into a coffee shop where we stop a minute to notice how our spirit is  lifted by the warm fragrance of our favorite brew or culinary offering.

The challenge you are facing now, says Taurus, is understanding the pure nature of abundance, of continuing to show up for a world too often losing its grip on kindness . . . and still finding in your own life all that fills you, body and soul, with reverence for life.

Taurus reminds us that our central current is our breath. Breathe deeply it says. And as you feel this rhythmic process continuing, you throw a breaker-switch on your anxiety, even if only for a moment. Breathe. Again. Find the still point within. We offer our most precious gift when we arrive at any discussion or action with inner stillness.

Softly softly, encourages our beautiful moon, continue on. Keep to that which is the most essential as you create safe space for yourself and those you cherish. And with that slower pace and gentler touch, you’ll be better able to support the work you’ve come to offer to the world.

As you read and listen to the astrological pundits, please remember that all the news of the large-scale planetary cycles is meaningless if you don’t feel connected to your own deep rhythm so that you can sense what it is that you, and you only, have to offer to the world. I encourage you to drop me a note if you’d like to re-visit your chart and see how the current planetary cycles are available to help you better understand why you are here in Time now. How to feel empowered to lend your unique gifts.

Please give yourself some time, today and tomorrow and every day going forward . . . time to slow down enough to feel the rich abundance of life enfolding you, even on the days when you aren’t sure how you’ll pay the rent. Go outside. Go into the kitchen and concoct something warm and delicious. A warm cup of tea and a slice of gingerbread—lol. Watch the leaves fall or the moon rise or the swans passing overhead on their mysterious journey south. Please look toward that which continues to continue against all the odds.

We are flowing through a time in Time that is asking all of us to find our core values and then to re-write anything in our story that is no longer relevant to how we actively engage with kindness and clarity of purpose.

You know I’m bowing to you. Always.
In love and peace and beauty.

love what it loves.
