Taurus rules our commitment to providing for our families, our communities and our Mother Earth. With Sun/Moon in Taurus squaring Saturn in Leo and Chiron in Aquarius, our sense of personal responsibility may highlight the tension between our own personal needs and those of the larger world. Saturn asks us to become responsible and Chiron forces us to consider what part each of us play in contributing to the world's problems. Though Venus and Uranus in Pisces (interconnectivity of all things) can open our hearts to the impact our greed and selfish desires have upon the mounting degradation of our environment, Saturn and Chiron are relentlessly forcing each of us to recognize the coming global economic catastrophe. Neptune rules oil, and while in Aquarius, Neptune acts as a shared delusion that we can continue to use oil as we always have. Four years ago, I wrote
"…. let's consider the stellium of planets in Aquarius in the Bush Administration's natal 10th house. Aquarius rules electricity and most importantly, renewable energy resources. Aquarius shuns rules and regulations and tends to approach things in inventive, visionary, libertarian, freedom loving, revolutionary, and humanitarian ways. The 10th house rules their reputation, their status, prestige and ultimately their legacy. Uranus the awakener, Neptune the mystic, Sun the essential self, and Mercury the communicator, make this house the best place to look for clues about the real mission of Bush Administration. The Bush Administration has a chance to become one of the most loved and visionary Administrations we have ever seen. But this is a group of oilmen who insist upon looking out for their own interests before those of the nation. So far, all indications point to the world's greatest missed opportunity, because of their continued reliance on old thinking. Their mission is to redefine freedom. Until they get on the stick, it will fall on us to force them to acknowledge that old solutions will not work anymore. Neptune rules oil, and Aquarius rules renewable energy resources. If they wish to wage a real war on terrorism, they should start at home, with a radical new program to force the automobile industry, homebuilders, and big business to convert to renewable energy resources. This would once and for all halt our dependence on oil produced by nations that are home to so many of the terrorist organizations we wish to eradicate. Uranus in Aquarius is demanding the Bush Administration wake up to this new reality, and put the full force of America's ingenuity and powerful economic engine behind renewables."
What a legacy they have squandered with their greed! And four years later, billions of dollars in debt, tens of thousands of lives lost, America is paying dearly for Bush's mismanagement and malfeasance. The recent meager calls for energy independence from Bush & Company are pitiful. Coal isn't it, nuclear isn't it and hydrogen might be it, but it won't be cheap. With Saturn in Leo we have about one year left to get serious about harnessing the power of our Sun, the engine of our local solar system. It is time for all of us to start fighting for a big redirect of engineering and financial resources to develop this technology before we have no oil left.
Taurus is all about making real what is in our minds. What can you do? Connect your self-worth with your role as caretaker of Mother Earth and all her inhabitants. Taurus walks the path of beauty and gives away its time and talent for many causes. Don't just gripe about the environment: get out there and pick up trash in your local park or on a beach. Don't just gripe about the price of gas: go buy a more fuel-efficient or hybrid vehicle, or walk/bike to work. Don't whine about homelessness: get yourself to a shelter, food bank or aid program and volunteer your time. Don't scream about the trashing of education funding: get to a school and offer your services to the kids and get on the anti-war protest lines to demand your tax dollars go to education not bombs. Enlist your brain, brawn, talent and time in shattering the illusion of separation.
Taurus represents caretaking, security issues, personal values and morals, self-worth, and one's attachment to possessions, land and money. This is the New Moon for revisioning our ideas about abundance. With Venus (finances) in Pisces (interconnectivity) we each have a wonder opportunity to reframe gaining personal wealth and security, as part of our own effort to build the health and wellbeing of all others.
There are some people for whom financial success seems effortless, and some who engage in an endless struggle with their finances. Money is not a fixed entity, it is energetic and always in flux; sometimes we have more of it, sometimes we have less. A healthy relationship to money reflects a sense of rhythm and play. That Taurus, a fixed sign, rules the ever-changing world of monetary matters really comes down to the fact that its modest, frugality breeds an even-tempered relationship to money. It is true that Taurus loves to be surrounded by luxury, but there is a great difference between insisting on good quality and indulging excessively in materiality. Think of this New Moon as a time to nurture the boy/girl scout within by cultivating financial preparedness and responsibility. The Taurus New Moon is the best time to get serious about your finances. Set financial goals that make sense, commit to a budget, and/or set earnings and savings goals for the year. You will be surprised at how much prosperity can be generated from a concerted effort to be more conscious about spending.
Since Taurus rules survival issues, this is the New Moon to look at how you meet your daily needs. What does fulfillment mean to you: surrounding yourself with mountains of possessions as a means to self-definition, or spending wisely on the few things that really matter? Are you so busy keeping up with the latest styles, must-haves and trends, that you have forgotten what is important to you? This is the New Moon to seriously reconsider what makes you happy deep down in your heart. This should be fairly easy with Venus (finances) in Pisces (spiritual fulfillment) and Jupiter (abundance) in Scorpio (seeking truth) focusing our thoughts about finances inwards. Try this exercise for the next two weeks. Before you purchase something, think about how you will feel after you own it, and be honest about how much use you will really get out of it. What will you do with it when it has outlived its usefulness? The answers to these questions will tell you if it's worth buying.
Taurus is the great procrastinator of the zodiac. It can always find more than enough distractions: shopping, cleaning, cooking, laundry, carpooling, errands, paying bills, caring for loved ones, and never-ending yard work. If you are a procrastinator, use this New Moon to make some serious commitments to setting goals for getting your work done…and adhering to them. Since Taurus rules procrastination, work on taming this demon and you will see your success rate soar!
Taurus needs to enjoy its work. So if you make your living doing what you love, you are way ahead of the game. But if you spend your time at a job you despise because you can't figure out how to get paid to do what you love, this is the New Moon to work on changing that reality. This basically comes down to building self-confidence, believing in the value of your talent and then doing the work. Creativity isn't about genius; it is really about giving from the heart. Anything, when done well (even sidewalk sweeping) can be satisfying and creative work. Chiron has gone into Aquarius forcing us all to look at our wounding around issues of originality and staying ahead of the curve. Here in Silicon Valley business is driven by an obsession with being first and always new and different. Aquarius reminds us that it isn't just being new or first, but more connecting with the pulse of the communal mind and heart; expressing that which everyone is feeling and thinking but not ready to face openly. Taurus is all about making real things that uplift and benefit real people's lives. This requires some attention to how one defines success. Look at the cost of what you define as success. And remember, success when measured with the yardstick of ever-increasing productivity is the mania that drives our world and us to desperation, violence and war.
What good is all that money if you don't have time to enjoy it? We all have to learn how to take some time off and relax. Lately, I have been considering the tenuousness of our economy. There is no system in nature that exists in a constant state of expansion. Contraction is an integral part of a balanced life. Taurus embodies the challenge of knowing how to save in the good times, so we can savor and enjoy the downtimes. Saving requires maturity, responsibility and moderation: the defining lessons of Taurus. The childish impetuousness of Aries naturally grows into the directed focus of Tuarus. Aries' ever-shifting desires evolve into Taurus' deep and passionate relationship with mastery and patience.
In the Tarot, Taurus is associated with the Magician card-garnering personal will to gain the necessary tools and knowledge for future success. If you own your own business, this is the New Moon cycle to establish new strategies, launch new products, create new employee training programs, or invest in new research and development projects. For the self-employed, this is the time to work on developing new client relationships, expand your skill-set, invest in equipment upgrades, and set new earnings targets.
Taurus is all about the push/pull of responsibility to others and the desire to follow one's own will. This is a constant theme in all our lives. Some feel like free agents; others feel constantly at the beck and call of family, friends and business associates, never able to enjoy a private moment. Most of us have lives filled with the constant weighing our own needs against the needs of others. This is the New Moon to consider how this juggling act plays out in your life. How easily do you devote time to your own pleasure? How much responsibility do you take on for others? Are you choosing to martyr yourself, while thinking others demand it from you?
Since Taurus rules our relationship to nature and its beauty, spend the next two weeks beautifying your home and garden, or get involved in a local beautification project or conservation program. If you are looking to buy, sell or rent property, this is the New Moon to focus your attention on getting exactly what you want. Taurus demands beauty and comfort at a reasonable price: and so should you. If you can visualize it, you can make it a reality!
Of course we cannot forget Taurus, the passionate, sensual, lover! So after you do "the hard work" of this goal-setting ritual, relax into a hot bubble bath or treat yourself to a delicious meal and then get a good night's rest. Of course if you are lucky enough to share your life with a partner, it becomes an invitation for lovemaking and sharing of sensual pleasure. Either way, you will awaken ready to face the new day with renewed vigor and joy! Enjoy this beautiful and fruitful New Moon!

Re: New Moon In Taurus
Fri, April 28, 2006 - 7:11 PMWow! It sure means alot to me! What it is saying is that I'm on the right path, over the last few months, I've enrolled in massage school, (I'm 42), so that I may be financially independant, this has required me to 1. be very careful with my money 2.To live on much less than I've become accostomed to. 3. Get an apt close to the town center. 4. Start riding my motorcycle for transportation,esp. since it seems to have stopped raining! 5. rearrange my investments so they are doing the best they can . 5 the school I am attending is doing a great job of merging my truth and spirit! I do feel great this week, even though my brain is quite full.....btw, my sun sign is Aquarius....I can see you are ahead of the wave regarding the future of this country. Thank you for your insight!
