Taurus New Moon - Healing Old Wounds and Fertilizing New Beginnings...

The Dark Moon in Taurus is tending to and cultivating the intentions you set in March. We are returning with Pluto retrograde to our inner psyches to what lies within that needs to gently let go.

Have you even finished reading my last blog before time has evaporated into thin air and phoof here is a new one!! This is the Fire and Air energies we have just come into this year - not just the Chinese Fire Horse but the planets hanging out in the elemental signs of Fire and Air - that is change, speed, timelines merging and dissolving, mental energies on steroids, everything feels like it has sped up and your body is not sure if its in the past, present or future. Welcome to the New that we are all transitioning into!!!

We are in times of New Earth Frequencies of great change and transition - you may feel uncertain about your next step. Feel like you have one foot in the old but one tentatively stepping into the new. There may be great confusion and frustration at not knowing the road ahead, but at the same time you feel your soul is calling you in a new direction. There may be deep grief as so many things we have hidden, believed or held within us are releasing and/or we have outgrown old parts of ourselves and unsure who this new version is?! There may be fear and great resistance to change, yet something is calling to you that cannot be ignored. If you resonate with any of the above you are not alone!!

As we approach the New Moon in Taurus - there are other energies interacting within us that may be resurfacing. Mars our planet of action, courage, warrior style mojo is still in Aries where he is exalted and at full potential of his energies with speed, energy, assertive independence - it is the I AM energy (remember the Aries Full Moon was all about our identity and who really are we without all the external fitting in and societal/religious/personal/ancestral beliefs) Mars will move and cross over Chiron (yes not bloody chiron again - pls read all my last few blogs around this as ALL our personal planets have crossed over Chiron) This is the last of our personal planets to cross Chiron so our last energetic cycle to heal and learn. The insights of what has this hurt shown me or shaped me.

When a planet crosses at the same degree point as another it adds extra energy and insight. This conjunction with Mars and Chiron (remember Chiron is our planet of deep wounding to our psyches, and shadow sides, but also our greatest insight into our own healing) is a combustion point of slaying, cutting and releasing the Energies we hold that stop us moving forward with confidence and assuredness. Often we have had to build fortresses of emotional amours and behaviors around ourselves to fit in, to not feel ostracized, to create safety ( if I keep quiet, I won't rock the boat), to avoid the deeper issues within us. Ancestral lines of fear, anxiety, trauma are also held and stored in our DNA where beliefs are formed - eg "Your father always acted like that" or worse "breast cancer runs in our family" are just a few. Before anything physical manifests, you already have the subtle belief running in your subconscious like a hardware virus.

Religion has given many the belief that we aren't worthy or sex and our pleasure are dirty and you'll go to hell. Women have been belittled and unseen by the Patriarch for eternity where our voices and opinions have been silenced - this in our generation is the "good girl/people pleasing complex " Fears of public speaking, fear of speaking how you feel, inhibitions around sexuality etc.

So you can see, Little by little we start to lose our own self within all the external around us. This energy is about reclamation of YOU.

Mars moving over Chiron at the same time as the New Moon in Taurus can offer the key of healing courage to acknowledge what is uncomfy within us, see it, listen to it, be compassionate with it - forgive yourself or others. Or the shadow sides of this is irritability, rage and anger, frustration and reactive to situations, self denial and aggression. When we are hurting we can lash out with words and actions that just keep perpetuating the cycle- and the cycle repeats (roughly every two years with this energy!) until you see it, nurture it, do the inner work and move on with grace, forgiveness and compassion.

I really feel compelled to write about this as Mars will square ( tense ) Pluto in the next weeks which are about Power dynamics, deep truths being revealed, anger and controlling energies. On a world stage this is truths being revealed around power, escalation, protests, people wanting endings to war, corruption and unfairness, disruption to food supplies/ stock markets/supply chains, earth stability - but on a personal front - its a deep excavation into oneself for healing and ending of feelings within that create deep unrest.

In short the Taurus New Moon/Mars conjunct Chiron followed by Mars square Pluto will

• Unearth anything within that is not on your frequency level

• Unearth discomfort/realizations of where you don't fit anymore!

• Show where your self worth is supported or not within groups, networks, friendships.

• Courage to act and choose healing rather than repeating.

• Speaking your truth and individuality.

• Show where you have given your power away to another belief or emotion.

• Surface emotions such as fear, rejection, abandonment, belonging - sit with these and feel into the source of where they are coming from and ask "is this mine to hold"

• You will feel or sense a truth or when something is off - a powerful time for intuition.

• Seeding new intentions under the Moon for growth in what makes you feel worthy, aligned and stable.

• Embracing change "let change, change you"

• Courage to step into the unknown, gentle grief as chapters close.

• Healthy, loving relationship to your body, self love and pleasure without dogma or guilt

• Act from instinct instead of approval

The Parts of ourselves we don't like are the parts wanting to be "seen"

The irritable or triggering energies are calling for deeper awareness.

Chiron is the key to our subconscious healing for evolvement and happiness

The Air Energies will ramp up when the Sun moves into Gemini so keep your intentions clear and focus on what brings you inner peace rather than all the dark noise, mindless scrolling and distraction out there.

Stay focussed on what version of you, you are wanting to be and bring that version of you into the here and now - this is how we work with these frequencies. Your thoughts are powerful and you have the ability to control what you are thinking.

Taurus in Earth Energy - our beautiful bodies, nature, our senses and sensuality, our creativity. Drop into these Energies under Sundays New Moon. I will be holding a beautiful Earthy Sound Bath for my Sunday Meditators to align with.

Until next time, loving thoughts to you and our Earth
