FINDING NEW FOUNDATIONS: Stand your ground flexibly! New Moon in 7° Taurus 47’ on Apr 27th at 9:31pm CET
New Moon in Taurus 2025: Values, Growth and Power.
The New Moon in Taurus in T-square to Mars in Leo and Pluto in Aquarius indicates that our desires and goals could be in tension with our physical capacities, our resources and earthly “realities”.
Maybe you want to finally realize your ideas after the long retrograde eclipse slowdowns of the last few weeks, BUT you lack the necessary time, (physical) strength, (financial) resources?
Maybe you want to move forward boldly, but your nervous system is simply overwhelmed?
Perhaps external authorities and/or other people are “preventing” you from shaping your life the way YOU want it?
But what really serves you and why does everything have to happen so damn fast?
Not least Taurus Ruler Venus in flowing Pisces reflects that this New Moon is a loving invitation to shift down a gear, trust your natural pace and create a balance between your fiery will, your “higher visions” and your body.
What is important to you and what do you really want to stand for (and go for)...?
Taurus New Moon: Back to your power.
At the New Moon, Taurus Ruler Venus in Pisces is in a New Phase conjunction to Saturn + the North Node in Pisces as well as in a balsamic conjunction to Neptune in Aries.
Venus will move (back) into fiery Aries shortly after the New Moon, where she began her current 19-month cycle in March.(Learn more about this in my Venus Cycle Workshop!)
It's time to get clear about what you want, what you stand for and what your values and needs are. You have risen to your deepest depths during the Venus and Mercury retrogrades and during the Eclipse eclipses.
Even if you still feel like you're “in the semi-dark” now, you have new strength and self-knowledge BECAUSE you had the courage to endure the void and “listen”.
Even if you still feel like you're “in the dark” now, you have new strength and self-knowledge BECAUSE you had the courage to endure the void and “listen”.
The energy will pick up speed over the coming weeks. You will grow stronger and your projects will blossom. But this can happen at a natural pace.
Do you think you need to make up for the “unproductive time” of the last few weeks?
Do you think you finally need to step on the gas?
The Taurus New Moon invites you to find your own pace.
Even if our meritocracy and/or your upbringing push you forward, the Taurus (in you) knows better: it is more sustainable, more enjoyable and even more productive if you follow the natural pace of your body.
How about creating your life in harmony with the gentle beat of your heart and the rhythm of the earth, instead of breathlessly rushing forward with increased blood PRESSURE?
The sapling becomes a tree without anyone pulling on it. Nor does the sprout doubt whether and when it will become a tree. It does what it is here to do. To grow and flourish. A little bit every day.
What if all you had to do for your life, your projects or relationships to blossom, strengthen and flourish was to trust the natural pace?
What if you just made it a little easier for yourself?
This does not mean that you are idle. Water your tree. Provide enough fertilizer. Be attentive and mindful to recognize what it needs... But:
Let go of the pressure and too much (overwhelming) complexity!

It's not all in your hands, Venus and the North Node in Pisces whisper to you. This “Pisces fact” can feel like a feeling of powerlessness (Mars in opposition to Pluto) OR a healing step towards co-creation...
What if things were going “well” as they are, even if they don't go exactly as you planned...?
This can feel dangerous for our Taurus body, because what is unplannable or unknown is initially categorized as life-threatening by our nervous system.
But if we always stay in our Taurus comfort zone, we can't evolve.
What is the fear behind your fear of the “unknown” or “new”?
Can you open yourself up to unknown possibilities that stretch your nervous system but don't completely stress you out?
Which steps or “ideas” feel completely overwhelming?
What is uncomfortable but doable for you, a.k.a. your nervous system?
Use Taurus time to cultivate a sense of security within yourself, self-confidence, self-worth and self-sufficiency.
If insecurity takes over, pivot back to your grounding before you continue to grow and let go of more (old) layers.
Is it important for you right now to strengthen your sense of inner security so that you can trust the unknown and unplanned more?
Or is it important for you NOT to become an ensign in the wind, not to lose your stability or be blown away by others?
The New Phase conjunction of Venus to Saturn indicates that it's not about giving in when outside authorities or your inner critics try to dissuade you from your path.
Don't make yourself small so that other people feel safe.
Don't let other people restrict you in your development because it makes them insecure when you change.
It's definitely NOT the vibe anymore to keep your mouth shut for the sake of peace or to be a love child (Venus in Aries calls out to you)! And by the Scorpio Full Moon in opposition to Uranus at the latest, your inner Taurus might be hoofing it rebelliously...
You are in a long phase of letting go, shedding your skin and unboxing. You are realizing more and more clearly that you are MORE than you thought and that your true essence is so much more powerful than you were told. You feel more and more clearly which roles and boxes have become too narrow.
Your core becomes stronger. Your truth louder.
Go into transformation, let go, strengthen your essence. But do it at your own pace and take your body and nervous system with you.
Use the days around the New Moon to feel what is really important to you, what serves you in the long term, what is true and what you want to use your resources for.
Set yourself these inner intentions. Align your actions and decisions accordingly. Feel the earth beneath your feet and a firm, supportive tree at your back.
Can you feel that you don't have to tense up, but that you are supported?
Can you feel that you can be firmly rooted in the approaching ground and that your branches can swing flexibly in the wind at the same time?
Find a balance between security and the unknown. Be brave and free yourself from boxes that are too small, but don't let yourself be pushed or stressed. Find your pace and trust that everything will unfold, grow and flourish naturally.
Do your best, but make it simple (and) beautiful! Be aware of your values and your worth and stand up for yourself, but choose your battles carefully.
Are you aware that the earth is holding you and that your body is supported by natural gravity?
Can you feel that it is safe for you to let go (a little bit more) and trust...?
