After an airy full moon in Libra, the new moon in Taurus is here to beckon us back towards solid ground. Now is the time to root down into magical sanctuary, set your juiciest tools out to charge on your altar, and reflect on the foundation your pleasure practice is built on. Taurus, like Libra, is ruled by Venus—tender Taurus feels most at home surrounded by beauty, care, and all things soft and supple. But where Libra tends to float in dreamland, Taurus digs deep into the material realm. This is a sign fueled by sensual routines, sumptuous structure, and a deep need for ritual. Are you ready to introduce your desire to material action this lunation? 

Whatever you do this Taurus new moon, do it with pleasure in mind. Surround yourself with potent magical allies at every turn, and make the mundane magical. Taurus is infinitely practical, but they know how when prioritize luxury. Now is a time to reach for material delight without hesitation. Spend an extra five minutes after your morning shower rubbing body oil into the soles of your feet, drape yourself in silk or velvet, put three spoonfuls of honey in your tea, kiss a flower, and recite a love poem to yourself in the mirror. Romancing your senses is a tender act of self-care. 

Whatever is calling out to be cultivated this new moon, allow Taurus to spur you towards heart-centered action. Trust that you have safety nets in place, and allow your desires to leap into the next phase, babe! Sow that seed, then have faith in it—allow your hopes to grow their own roots. These dreams will blossom on their own time.
