MAY 2023 TAURUS NEW MOON

SYMBOL: BULL

ELEMENT: EARTH

PLANET: VENUS

HOUSE: 2ND HOUSE OF MONEY + POSSESSIONS

Goodbye Eclipse Season, hello manifesting!! Tomorrow’s New Moon in earthy Taurus is your queue to plant some serious seeds of intention and watch those babies grow! This lunation centers around your values, sense of security and self-worth so check in on your needs, comfort, finances and emotions. It's time to set yourself up for success with a plan that centers around what's really important to you. Once you set that plan in action, get ready for a totally new chapter in your life!

Pleasure-loving Taurus is also getting a triple shot of love with this New Moon. The Moon absolutely loves being in Taurus (it’s literally exalted in this sign) and Taurus’ ruling planet is Venus: the planet of love, beauty, money, and art. Jupiter is also entering Taurus for the first time in 12 years, bringing an extra boost of pleasure and good luck for the next year. As if all that’s not enough, this is also the first New Moon in Taurus since 2021 that isn't an eclipse, so be sure to double down on this supercharged New Moon magic and manifest your most powerful year ahead.

Crystals to Work With:

Rose Quartz - Self-love + Pleasure
Rhodonite - Compassion + Grounding
Green Aventurine - Luck + Prosperity
Rutilated Quartz - Powerful Manifestation
Serpentine - Transformation + Transition

Taurus New Moon Ritual:

Connect to Earth energy by planting literal seeds! Grab a pot and a packet of seeds (no green thumb? Cosmos, marigolds, and zinnias are some of the easiest flower to grow from seed). Before you plant, write a wish list on a small piece of paper (think: What are 5 things you want to manifest in the next year?). Fold the paper up as small as possible, sprinkle an inch or two of soil at the base of the pot and place your wish list here. Fill the pot about 1/3 of the way, sprinkle your seeds and some organic fertilizer, and water! Gather and cleanse your crystals, placing them on top of the soil to charge in the Taurus New Moon’s energy over night. The next day, choose a crystal or two (we recommend Green Aventurine and Rose Quartz) to keep in your wish garden charged (the rest you can keep with you until the next New Moon)!
