New Moon in Taurus | Time to Rise & Shine
“If you can’t love yourself, how in the hell are you going to love someone else?!”
-RuPaul
The New Moon in Taurus on May 11th is asking us to go within and get real with it. What do you want? And do you TRULY believe that you are worthy of receiving it?
What do you value in yourself, and what do you value at large? If you don't love and respect yourself, then others are unlikely to do so either. Remember, we SHOW people how to treat us and how to value and respect us. EVERYTHING is energy.
Here's some journal prompts to kick off this earthy, yin, moon energy: What does abundance mean to me? And do I truly believe I deserve it?
And if not, dig deep and ask yourself WHY?
Try lighting a candle, and do some candle gazing. Ask your Higher Self and guides to come in and show you any limiting beliefs that are holding you back from manifesting your dreams into reality.
Don't worry if nothing comes through right away; it takes practice to tap into the voice of your Higher Self. Just keep practicing. The more you tune in, the easier it becomes.
Pro tip: Your Higher Self will send you messages through your thoughts (and it will sound like your own inner voice).
Full Moon in Taurus mantra: i am worthy of whatever I want.
As Taurus is an earth sign, the energies of this New Moon also help to ground and root us into our physical body. You can speed up this process by eating grounding foods, like potatoes, carrots, nuts, or spicy food. This week is an opportunity to go within and ground into the desires of your soul.
If you identify as a star seed or lightworker, staying grounded is your MEDICINE. I know for me, I have to ground several times a day. It's the only thing that keeps me on mission. Remember, we came here to bring heaven to the Earth, not to escape reality.
One thing that came through very strongly in my sessions this week is the importance of GROUNDING and being grateful for the opportunity to be on the Earth plane at this time.
“Consider it an honor to be on the Earth during this time. So many souls applied to be here. The fact that you were selected means you have a mission and a purpose to fulfill.”

I love working with the cycles of the Moon because it gives us a bi-monthly structure to do the work and come back to what the shamans call “right thinking.”
The modern world encourages distorted thinking, i.e., envy, comparisonitis, brokenness, competition, and self-loathing. Right thinking embraces unity, healing, Self-Care and Self-Love. Each New Moon allows us to get clear on what we want and set our intentions. Each Full Moon allows us to release all toxic thoughts, emotions and patterns that hinder us from stepping into our unique mission and purpose.
So take some time this week to ground in the true desires of your soul. Remember, all the answers you seek are within. Pump up the Self-Love and try the Taurus New Moon Ritual!
✨ Be kind. Know your truth. Aim for the light. ✨
