𓂀 TA**US NEW MOON 25º
Good morning my beautiful souls..
Let´s tune into the energy of this New Moon for a moment..
The New Moon is the darkest point of our lunar cycle.. this is held breath and the seed pressed into soil before anyone can see what it might become. In Ta**us at 25°, this particular darkness is rich and dense and deeply, deeply earthen. Ta**us is the archetype of matter, our worth and senses. It rules our values and resources, our relationship with pleasure and abundance AND our foundational sense of whether we deserve to simply BE here, taking up space, drawing breath, receiving.
It asks: what are we planting in the ground of our actual lives? And just as importantly... do we believe our ground can hold us?
Because that is the real Taurean inquiry. Not whether we are working hard enough or manifesting correctly, not whether our vision boards are inspired enough. Our question is far older and far simpler and far more confronting than any of that. It is: do we trust that we are worthy of a life that nourishes us? Do we trust the earth to receive what we offer? Do we trust ourselves to want what we actually want?
And this is where we need to go somewhere tender together, because Ta**us rules money, AND our money story is almost never really about money.
Our money story is about what we learned, early and deep, about our worth. About whether our presence in a room created value or consumed it. This is is about whether needing things was safe and asking was allowed, whether receiving was something we had earned or something that had to be constantly justified.
Does this resonate somewhere in your being?
So many of us grew up in environments, families and cultures that taught us, often without a single spoken word, that there was not enough and that wanting more was greedy. And we, as little open hearted curious human beings learned that security was something other people had and that money was complicated and somehow also a measure of how much we mattered. Stay for a moment with this.. it has shaped humanity more than we often realise. How much pain and lack we carry in our cellular memory and DNA of NOT ENOUGHNESS. This is a powerful moment to look at what hurts and look at what is a belief inherited. LAND HERE.. look at how glorious and worthy you are. Stay here if you have to for a moment. That is the medicine for this new beginning.
Our New Moon at 25° Ta**us is sitting at the opening degree of the Pleiadian Portal.... And today, New Moon… moment of planting, seeding worth and desire and new beginnings into the earth of our lives... lands exactly at the threshold of that portal. At 25° Ta**us - the very first breath of Pleiadian frequency.
In modern esoteric astrology, the Pleiades are understood as a source of highly advanced feminine wisdom, a star lineage most associated with healing, empathy, the heart chakra, and the soul’s remembrance of what it came here to do.
Many who feel a deep pull toward healing work, spiritual service, holding space for others in their becoming... carry Pleiadian frequency in their charts, planets at those late Ta**us degrees, strong Pisces or 12th house placements, a sensitivity that has always felt larger than this one lifetime.... read more on Substack and my website - find below..
Mars conjuncts Chiron in Aries today, on this New Moon in Ta**us, is not a casual transit. This is an activation. Mars is literally moving over our wound, which can feel like a flare, and things that seemed healed are tender again, like we are being asked to act from a place that still hurts, AND to act anyway. To move forward from exactly where we are, wound and all, because our healing is not a prerequisite for living... our living IS our healing.

Our ground is dark right now. That is what a new moon is. But dark and barren are not the same thing. Our seed does not need light to germinate, it needs soil, and warmth, and the willingness of something to become.
We are that something.
Plant what is true and move from where we are. Trust our ground.
And know that the ache felt in the initiating, that raw Aries tenderness where courage lives right next to fear... that is not weakness asking us to wait. That is Chiron showing us exactly where our medicine grows.
Our new moon holds space for everything that has not yet shown itself.
We are already what we are becoming.
Love you ###
