New Moon in Taurus 2025

On April 27th at 12:31 PM PDT the Sun and Moon align at 7 degrees Taurus, 47 minutes. This is a welcome new beginning, after the transformational energies of Eclipse Season. Taurus is a stable, fixed sign that desires peace and fulfillment.

Taurus is the first Earth sign of the Solar Year. Earth signs are grounded, care about nature and love to beautify their surroundings as color, scent and vibration affect them tremendously. All fixed signs land in the second month of a season when the energies are anchored. The glyph for Taurus is the Bull, the Latin word for Bull. When loved and petted, a bull can be calmed and can be by your side. But if you disturb, block or challenge one, look out. Same goes for people born under this sign. They are a determined lot, persevering even when others would quit. Being ruled by Venus, the Goddess of love, beauty, fertility, values and success, Taureans tend to be artists, musicians, gardeners, and creators.

As the Sun and Moon lend us tranquility at this moment in time, we are showered with optimism and hope for our future. After the fire sign of Aries and the Eclipses, this fixed sign can be felt as a break, a time to relax and be lazy:) But there are a couple of curve balls happening at the same time. Both Mars (in Leo) and Pluto (in Aquarius) square the Sun and Moon, creating a T-Square. As Mars and Pluto oppose each other, the middle line of a T points to the Sun and Moon for direction on how to process these energies.

Generally speaking, fixed signs don’t like change, and these are no different. Stubbornness and determination come into play, and with Mars and Pluto in opposition, there can be fireworks! T Squares bring stress and anxiety that overflows and snaps back, forcing us to take action. While we may feel like holding on tight to what we have out of fear, this New Moon encourages us to get our finances in order and devise a new budget. There may be power struggles centered around survival instincts, self worth, and self-preservation. It’s forcing us to confront the pressure under the surface around money, and where we’ve grown too rigid or too reliant on comfort zones. Taurus wants peace, but Pluto and Mars want transformation and confrontation.

The best way to handle these energies is to first set your Earthly goals for the New Moon, centered around leaving the past behind and renewing your optimism. This sign of values asks us all, “what is really important in your life at this time?” The answer is not only survival, but a new appreciation of what we do have and how to make the most of it. Whether it’s setting a new course of employment, a different way of looking at finances, how to improve your appearance, or sharing love with others, it’s time for change. Mars and Pluto funnel their energies into this task, supplying the determination and energy to take the initiative and do something to improve your situation. Where the Goddess Venus is a passive planet, Mars and Pluto are active; together they bring us to our knees, praying for insight for what to do. That is what I suggest for us all now, to go within and ask our Soul for direction. No matter your financial situation, you have an opportunity to make yourself and your World more beautiful under this influence.

So a beautiful celebration is in order, with flowers, good food and good company. Share who you are and what you have with others now. Play music, get the paints out and create together, as we all love Springtime with its promises for the seeds to sprout, just like our thoughts taking root and bringing promises of personal growth.
