Monday, the Moon remains steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late morning. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well.
In other words, change is not our favorite thing, and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing until Tuesday late morning? It’s probably slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses.
Monday early afternoon, we are invited to take care of anything that has value for us on a physical level.
Ask yourself: what actions could I take this afternoon that would be in alignment with my physical desires and needs? What practical actions would energize my body and bank account?
As best as you can, honor yourself, your talents, and physical matter in general. (Moon in Taurus conjuncts Mars, exact at 12:19am EDT)
Monday afternoon, we have an opportunity to connect with family and loved ones in a nurturing way — and, indeed, to connect with all of them from the heart.
Ask yourself: What might become possible if I let myself enjoy others in the mutual pursuit of any shared values? What if I were open to receiving practical support as well as giving it? (Moon in Taurus sextiles Venus in Cancer, exact at 2:42pm EDT)
Monday evening, we have an opportunity to focus on the subtle and the essential — and achieve flow around material wants and needs.
We are invited to practice a gentler, more intuitive approach, to go within and get in touch with our inner divinity, and to bring peace and inner knowingness to our financial goals and ability to honor ourselves.
Ask yourself: Could I trust my inner knowing (or intuition) 5% more than I have previously? What spiritual practices could support me on this journey inward? (Moon in Taurus sextiles Saturn in Pisces. exact at 5:28pm EDT)
Monday night/Tuesday very early morning at 3:50am EDT, the Balsamic Moon phase begins when the Moon reaches almost 26º of Taurus. This Moon phase lasts until Friday evening when the New Moon in Cancer becomes exact (more about this on Friday… In the meantime, feel free to watch my video on the subject)
We are being asked to slow down and get quiet so we can listen to our inner sensing/intuition. For some of us, this might be a stretch.
As best as you can, stay grounded, take a deep breath, and exhale any tension. Rather than starting something brand-new, put all that energy into completing existing projects or processes.
This is also a great time for letting go of whatever no longer serves us. What if you could hear the voice of your inner wisdom? What might it be saying?
Also, tomorrow (Tuesday), at 6:40am EDT, Neptune comes to a halt at 29º56′ of Pisces to start its yearly 5-month Retrograde phase. This phase lasts until December 7th (at 27º08′ of Pisces).
Until then, we are invited to access Neptune’s energy from within: Our intuition will be very strong during this time.
During this time, we can see how connected we are to our Higher Self/The Universe/Source. What’s more, we have an opportunity to dissolve any barriers between us and our Soul’s guidance.
For the next five months, ask yourself: Am I sensing my Soul’s desire for love and oneness to the fullest? Am I resting enough? Am I connecting to my intuition? Is anything keeping me from experiencing the flow of life?
Some of us will feel the effects more than others. This is particularly true if you have personal planets in 27-29 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, Sagittarius, or 0-2 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn — and if you have a Pisces Sun- or Rising-Sign. For you, in particular, this is a great time to reevaluate your connection to Source — and perhaps to allow yourself to connect more fully to the flow of life.
