Half Moon Taurus

Half Moon Taurus
Thursday August 13, 2009


What fortifies you? Today the Moon is in stabilizing Taurus, and is at the exact half way point in its waning cycle. The waning Moon (getting smaller) is the time for release, and with Taurus, that means letting go of what weakens you mind, body and spirit. The Moon is in easy harmony (trines) with Mercury (messages) and Saturn (discipline), both in Virgo. You can have an epiphany about some small thing you do daily that saps your energy. You get that inner resolve to stick to your healthy habits.

Meanwhile, Jupiter in far-reaching Aquarius takes off with Mars in speedy Gemini today in a trine. It makes you restless to experiment or break free of the same ole routine. The Moon in Taurus in the tension of the half Moon, weighs new approaches, with a sense of what has the potential to be stable.

This earthy Moon reminds you to keep the necessary basics in mind, but don't forget the pleasures. I like the advice to stay simple and open-hearted, in this message from a Mayan Elder. On growing stronger spiritually, he says, "Follow a tradition with great roots. It is not important what tradition, your heart will tell you, but it must have great roots." Today's aspects cover the ongoing theme of digging deep and rooting with the Earth, while reaching for the stars.
