Think back to Spring and the energy surrounding the new moon in Taurus. What was it you were manifesting at that time? What intentions did you set back then? How have they changed? How have your intentions come to fruition over the past six months? Did they manifest the way you expected them to?
Full moons are a fantastic way to allow you to embrace your accomplishments and also release all that no longer serves you. As the new moon entered Libra you would have gained clarity and better understanding to start new projects and initiate ideas.
Full moons are a great time to indulge in some self care, as the sign of Taurus is well known for welcoming sensual pleasures. What does indulging mean to you? It could simply be treating yourself to a fancy meal at your favourite restaurant, or finding ways to relax, like meditating, yoga, or walking in the woods. Singing! Taurus relates to the throat and neck. This is a lovely way to express yourself. Laugh and shout too. Listen to music. Feed your soul by blasting your favourite tunes and singing along.
Taurus is ruled by the love planet Venus and is a reminder to live a life you love and express gratitude for what you truly value. The planet Venus will highlight if you are resisting self-care. Do you feel that you are not deserving of your own love and care? Do you ever allow yourself to rest and pause? These are ways of blocking the universal flow and energy of receiving and this moon is here to help clarify and amend these thoughts in order to receive and be able to give.
During this full moon, utilise the time for taking a break, indulge in a relaxing spa treatment, meditate, or even simply have a glass of wine or two! Just make sure you indulge in all of your senses, whatever it is that helps you feel calm and relaxed. That is what self-care and self-healing is all about, tuning into yourself, your being, accepting your flaws, feeling what it’s actually like to be you. These are all learning opportunities for you to grow and progress on your path. You can ask yourself questions like, “What part of me really needs to let go? What area of my life needs nurturing and a re-start?”
Some ways you can tap into the Taurus full moon are by…
Doing an emotional cleanse:
Release old emotions that no longer serve you. Write a list of anything that may be holding you back emotionally, mentally, and physically. Use this full moon to let it all go.
Surrounding yourself with your favourite comforts:
Take time out and enjoy receiving the simple pleasures of life. Take care of your body. Taurus is an Earth sign and this full moon is a reminder to be in touch with the physical world and the physical body. Receive a massage or nurture yourself in a bath of bubbles.
Tempering your emotions:
Taurus is a fixed sign, and their energy is firmly rooted, accepting, and owning every part of themselves completely, wholeheartedly, and unapologetically, seeing themselves for who they truly are. Ask yourself, “What do I need to feel secure?”
Slowing down:
Be present and stay in the moment. Turn off all communication with the outside world so you can get in touch with yourself on a deeper level. Bring yourself back into a place of being grounded in the here and now. Focus your intentions on what matters to you and what needs to change in order for you to feel complete.
The Taurus moon wants you to create a life in which your happiness is an inside job and you feel whole, complete, safe, and secure in yourself.
