2023 Taurus New Moon
19 May at 8.53 am PDT- 11.53 am EDT- 4.53 pm BST (summer time GMT)
19 May 11.53 pm AWST Perth- 20 May at 1.53 am AEST Sydney NSW Australia

When Jupiter entered Taurus on May 16^th he activated the Tarot Constellation of The Hierophant, the principle of learning to become the wise teacher and dancing to the tune of your own drum. He also squared (motivation for change and finding new ways of doing things) Pluto at 00 degrees Aquarius (innovation and thinking outside the “box”).

Pluto is The Transformer. This energy is with us for Jupiter’s journey through Taurus until 25 May 2024. But he also activated the 4^th Ray of Harmony through Conflict or Harmony through beauty and peace. He supports us to connect with our higher consciousness and expand our spiritual vision. He supports us to find Inner Harmony.

This theme is present with our New Moon at 28 degrees Taurus 25 minutes. The Throat Chakra is being activated. It is about finding your voice and speaking your truth with compassion, kindness and wisdom. Spiritually this Moon cycle asks us to connect with Mother Earth and her wisdom. Take time to walk in nature and receive messages from all her kingdoms. The Moon is exalted in Taurus. She asks us to listen to our body’s wisdom and pay attention to its messages. In the Northern Hemisphere this is The Growing Time with Beaver, clearing the old and building the new, as your guide. In the Southern Hemisphere this is the New Moon of transformation with Snake, shedding the old and renewal, as your guide. For all of us the Clan Mother who guides Jupiter in Taurus and this Taurus New Moon cycle is Listening Woman. She is the guardian of the Stillness and Inner Knowing. She teaches us how to enter the stillness and listen to our hearts wise voice.

Our planetary guide for this Moon cycle is Venus at 12 degrees Cancer 59 minutes. She supports us to listen to our intuitive knowing. Venus is “out of bounds” asking us to be courageous as we release the old and create the new. She is working in Harmony with the Goddess Astraea (inner balance) at 11 degrees Taurus (what is of true value) and the Goddess Vesta at 15 degrees Taurus (commitment to our spiritual truth). The Taurus New Moon is sextiled by Neptune at 27 degrees Pisces (guidance from Mystical powers). Neptune also helps us to know what is true and release what is not. At 2.48pm EDT the Moon entered Gemini and was trine Pluto (transforming our thoughts and perceptions and creating our new story). This will continue to be the theme when the Sun enters Gemini on May 21 at 3.09 am EDT and trines Pluto (removal of obstacles and going with the flow).

For the next 3 weeks Pluto continues to be activated (release, transformation, and creating the new). Here are the dates. All times are EDT.

May 20- 11.31 am- Mars enters Leo (the need to be in control at all costs or compassionate action). 11.12 pm- Mars opposite Pluto (transformation and regeneration)
May 21- 3.09 am- Sun enters Gemini (creating our new story). 9.58 am Sun opposite Pluto (releasing the old that no longer serves)
May 22- 1.57 am- Sun sextile Mars (new creative opportunities)
May 24- 7.39 pm- Venus square Chiron (healing old wounds and release)
May 26- 3.37 am- Venus sextile Uranus (breaking through to what is of true value)
May 28- 6.46 am- Sun in Gemini square Saturn in Pisces (confusion regarding what is right for you)
June 02- 6.42 pm- Venus trine Neptune (the fog clears)
June 02- 11.42 pm- Sagittarius Full Moon (focus on your spiritual vision)
June 05- 9.46 am- Venus enters Leo- 12.05 pm- Venus opposite Pluto (creative power at full force). Pay attention to messages from the Universe. Venus retrogrades July 22 at 28 degrees Leo reactivating the lessons of this Taurus New Moon cycle. She moves direct on Sept 03 at 12 degrees Leo. She enters Her Morning Star journey on Aug 13 at 20 degrees Leo (spiritual warrior guided by the compassionate heart). We will write more about the Venus journey in the near future.
June 11- 5.47 am- Pluto retrogrades back into Capricorn (transformation of our Soul Purpose Path in the world). 6.27 am- Mercury enters Gemini (living our new story)

On a personal note this post is a little late. We are having issues with our septic system. Different contractors have been coming to access the situation. It has been driving our two German Shepherds crazy. It is difficult to think. Astrology telephone sessions are still on hold.

Thanks everyone for understanding,

Namaste and blessings,

Dale
