The Full Moon in Taurus brings attention towards the practical, physical and tangible things in life.
Taurus is an earth element and fixed mode of expression. Through the highest potential of Taurus, each learns to appreciate, value and feel worthy.
The Full Moon in Taurus at its potential suggests emotional self-worth, solid lasting value and being full grounded and present to various emotions so they impart the wisdom and thus keep the emotional level flowing.
This particular full moon contains an array of emotions, powerful intensity, as well as wonderful potential for healing.
The Sun is in Scorpio opposing the Moon in Taurus. This suggests striking a balance between the practicalities and emotional needs. Emotions are heightened during a full moon phase and this full moon has an amplification to it.
With each Full Moon, there is an illumination regarding a habitual tendency, emotional reaction or something you are unaware of that becomes illuminated. The attention is on the emotional level and subconscious.
During a Full Moon phase it is time to honor your emotional level rather than fight it, fear it or ignore it. Be present to your own emotions and needs.
*There are beautiful blessings in store.*
Venus in Scorpio is widely connecting to the Full Moon in Taurus while this configuration is making a harmonious ‘Trine’ to transiting Chiron on in Pisces retrograde. This suggests the rich potential for emotional healing something from the past and transcending the pattern through willingness to surrender the extreme ‘right/wrong’ into acceptance of the Spiritual purpose and learning the issue or situation brought into your life. Love may expand and soften the rough edges of the pain that is held from the past. Peace may be felt as you have the courage to delve deep into the core of the issue, face it and address it with all of your heart and Soul.
Transiting Jupiter in Leo is making wide aspects to the Full Moon in Taurus, Venus in Scorpio as well as Saturn in Scorpio. This symbolism suggests certain lessons and need for practical changes issues around love, self-love, self-worth, values and trust which may appear magnified. You may notice it being a “lack or limited” experience that requires your choice and willingness to shift into acceptance for growth and healing to take place. It is time to integrate in what you say you believe in, deepen faith or put into application what you have read as a concept to see if it is of value in your life and situation now.
Many may feel this energy as possible overwhelm, exhaustion and even a weariness. This indicates a need to rest and recoup rather than take on more than you need to.
For example, be around people who inspire you to grow, heal and expand love rather than engaging with high intensity melo-drama people. One will help you feel uplifted while the other may drain your energy and pull you into the symbolic abyss with them.
It is helpful to do things in moderation during this Full Moon in Taurus even if the desires pull you into excess or over the top. Slow down and ask yourself what is…. moderation? How can you be wise with your resources without engaging in fear this can be emotional resources, financial resources or mental resources? Hording out of fear will only inhibit the flow of financial prosperity for you are holding back energy to a point of stagnation. Look at the underlying fears, anxieties and worries you are engaging in. By being in gratitude for what you do have, you open up to more of the flow of energy to line you up with the abundance in Life.
Be sure when you decide to be generous it is given to people who will value it and will conscious appreciate your gesture. If the person does not value themselves, they may not value what you share with them and if you over give…then you may end up in resentment at some point down the road.
Remember also, the highly potent astrological aspect building is Mars ‘conjunct Pluto in Capricorn while making a ‘square’ to Uranus in Aries retrograde (building now until Nov. 13th or so). The potential is intense raw energy being channeled into practical avenues for long-term results. Yet, the rawness of this potent energy may be internal building frustration, limitation, and out of control experience. It is prompting an important “catharsis” of some kind by symbolically pushing on every button that needs your attention. Perhaps it is around trust, control, surrender, being assertive, letting go, being realistic and grounded, patience and so forth. Think of it as an important miniature timer being set off to expose hidden desires, motivations, fears and areas that require new wise action. Strong reactions, anger and seething emotions will indicate what and where you need to pay attention. This is the next step for growth and perseverance in the timing of things.
(More on that later)
The Full Moon in Taurus brings a beautiful message about how we choose to use our resources and if we are valuing self and others in an equal manner. For some people issues around money, trust and lack of abundance may arise. Look at this as a insecurity and fear subconscious pattern that requires you to heal and transform something within you to get you in touch with a more financial flow.
Many Blessings to you all!
