Venus, the planet of love and the New Moon are in the earthy, grounded and sensual sign of Taurus, spreading cosmic love across the sky. Plant seeds for things you love and want and for the things and people you hold dearly. Take time now to think about what you really value and deeply need. Plant desires. Catch your wishes.
☽ Protection
A lovely white warrior goddess stands balanced between two swans. I love when a new moon appears in a card drawn for a new moon reading. It's the ultimate confirmation of connection to divine consciousness and the spiritual and magical connection we have to the Earth and her moon cycles. We always have one foot here and one in Spirit.
Swans, a feminine symbol of the moon, are associated with Aphrodite the goddess of love. A sword stands ready for action behind one of the swans, underneath the new moon. It's a call to action. A call to aim and create. Space is open underneath this goddess' other hand to signify the space for creation, the void.
Swans are a symbol of the world in between where our dreams live, our fertile and powerful subconscious mind. In manifestation we create by becoming clear and asking for what we want, then letting God❥dess take care of the "how" of it all. Her etheric angel wings or fairy wings depending on how you see it, show again that we are in this world but not of it. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
☽ Sanctuary
Our Taurus muse wears a regal but earthly headpiece and peacock cape. Peacocks are ancient symbols of royalty and protection. She holds her beautiful necklace. She loves the finer things and oozes sensuality. Dress in your sexy and sensual, but comfortable clothes this new moon. Wear treasured rings and pretty jewelry. Eat good food and celebrate life.
The green tones of this image represent the earth element of Taurus, as an earth sign in astrology. Bulls as they are often called like to think things through before making decisions. They don't like to be pushed. They aren't stubborn they just need to consider things deeply.
If you feel pushed right now by someone or something in your life, retreat to sanctuary to figure things out and muse over them. This is a big new moon with Venus in Taurus for relationships. Consider the feelings and opinions of others. Consider your own feelings and opinions. True love stems from love. Taurus asks us to consider our own values but to not push them on others. If there is someone you need to forgive or let go of, make this one of your new moon intentions. Then let the big "U" step in.
During this new moon phase you may feel possessive of your loved ones and your things. It might be time to go through old stuff that you have been holding too, that at one time was of great value to you. Doing this also moves energy in a positive direction.
Taurus people have beautiful, comfortable and sometimes super-lush abodes. Their home is their sanctuary and they fiercely protect it. It's time to create your own sanctuary. Oh how lovely life is when we can take a break, even if it is for five minutes for a short meditation or time outside. We all have different ideas of what sanctuary is. It might be connecting to nature, or a special spiritual place. While it is wonderful to be able to leave life and go away, sometimes we don't have that luxury. The good news is we don't have to go very far, because we can be renewed by cultivating sanctuary within.
☽ Grace
This lovely image glows with the colors of Taurus, reds, yellows and oranges. A lovely maiden takes pleasures in the sensuality of the earth. She is surrounded by flowers and showered with the sun's love. Grace is always present for us in the present moment. Right now we are deeply considering what is very important to us. Do our values serve us? Have we gotten away from the our center? Or stuck in the past? I recommend starting with 5 things that are very important to you as your new moon intentions.
Taurus is a good energy for money-manifesting. Be specific about your financial goals. I want $5000 to take a trip, or I want to increase my monthly salary by this amount of money. It might be time to review your budget, or start monthly savings. It also might mean spending time and money on yourself, especially for women. We change the culture by the choices we make. I heard a man say once that his friend's wife didn't cook and somehow that was wrong. Don't get me started...
We don't need to always push to make things happen. Invite life in. Cultivate "the good life". Nurture yourself so you can nurture your beloveds. Get yourself flowers. Go very Taurean and get a massage and buy a new handbag, shoes or lush throw blanket.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world." -Marianne Williamson
Emotions are surfacing. Old dirty not-so-pretty behaviors are coming out to play says Scorpio. Things you thought you'd never say again come right out of your mouth. And part of you doesn't care cause you are sick and tired of playing nice. This Full Moon is all about Restoration + Regeneration = Power. It hits in grounded, earthy and sensuous Taurus causing us to look at what our key values are. The truth of what we really need and want deep down. What makes us secure? What gives us comfort. Time to get out of our own way.
☽Adventure
Our lovely diva rides a butterfly. Butterflies mean transformation and metamorphosis in so many cultures. You've been riding the flow of your dreams and ideas. You are more aware of what you bring to the table, and what you are willing to offer. You've gotten rid of so much stuff, literally and figuratively. You cleaned some of your closets if not all of them. You've taken classes and read books. You are expanding.
Scorpio ruled by Pluto, the planet of upheaval and renewal brings out and up crap we thought we were done with and that we are not proud of, so it can be burned away. The butterfly she carries is all her stuff she brings to the fire to be burned, cleaned, purified and transformed. She's over it!
☽ Reflection
In this image, the mirror is the full moon and the magic of night time. She's partly clothed showing vulnerability and courage to look deep at one's self. You react less. Your inner-game and what really makes you happy, satisfied and fulfilled quickly makes it way to the top of your list. This also signifies the traits you do not like in others reflected back at you.
There is magic, mystery and meaning to moon phases. Scorpio deepens this cycle. It's time to make a list of what you will release and allow Sister-Mother Moon to do her magic. Sitting under the moon exalting at the wonder of it is a primal and innate practice set deep in our collective consciousness. It is not dark magic to love the moon. It's already in you.
☽ Surrender
Oh how beautiful what comes from what you release and give way. Oh how free it feels to yield. Each of these butterflies symbolizing transformation represent what you will release this full moon.
This reading speaks deeply to our subconscious through symbolism. Pictures bring a whole set of thoughts and corresponding images. It's time to change the symbols of our pasts or get new ones. Ask your Higher Power and Mother Goddess Moon to help you do this. You cannot humanly go anywhere as deep. This is an inside spiritual feat. What deep-seated fears are you so over carrying? Perhaps your fear is you'll never be good enough. Or you secretly harbor bag-lady fears. Or that your work doesn't matter or you are invisible. Be ready. Be willing. Ask your Higher Power for help. List your fears....your butterflies. Ask for the resources...books, people, opportunities to come to you thru Spirit. They surely will.
☽ Dreams
Our subconscious speaks to us through our dreams. Divining this reading for you felt very dream-like. I feel as if I've been swimming below the surface of a lake at night under the moon trying to put the pieces together. What is below the surface will make it's way up.
It's time to rebuild our lives touching on the issues that are of value to us. You can revamp and makeover your life no matter what it seems to be like right now. Time is relative. It's all happening now. Past, present & future. Dont' let symbols put boxes around what is possible. Create new ones. Draw new ones. Use oracle cards. Let the images speak to you, layer by layer, deeper and deeper. Go to an art museum. The morning sun and sky is never the same. Feel and experience the renewal available every day.
Many of you will be taking on yoga and physical forms of meditation like walking and tai-chi. The flow calls. Movement creates movement. Some of you are making moves with finances and investments. Now is a good time. You are renovating. When you renovate - get rid of stuff, stop smoking, get financially clear, wash your walls you are moving energy and causing transformation. What you transform makes an impact on your inner circle and for those you don't know. Watch out babycakes!

Feeling like you have a hangover after last weeks monumental cosmic-universal happening? It was Major! Full-on intense energy is causing clearing and change at levels we are not even aware of yet.
How do you feel this week? March 20th was epic! A monumental cosmic-universal happening. I'll be happy to hear if you are riding the wave and flowing free. But if you are feeling a bit like a truck hit you like I am, be sure to let yourself rest and integrate this huge metamorphosis.
Here's How to Integrate These Changes Now
Clear Your Energy
Take a sea salt bath. Sea salt takes away negative energy and clears your auric field. If you can't take a bath, get into the ocean or a body of water or listen to an ocean meditation like the one streaming for free at my site now.
Chill Out
Gift yourself the morning, afternoon, evening or whole day to regenerate and rest. Laying in bed with your whole body supported beneath you allows for deep rest and relaxation. And baby-cakes you deserve it!
Have Fun
Recreation means recreate. Spend some time with friends maybe a intimate dinner or coffee date. If your energy is high bust out and go dancing or try something completely new!
Clear the Clutter
Clean out of areas in your home based on what you want to let go of and what you want to create. Clearing space moves energy. Use the Feng Shui chart below to see where the wealth area of your home is. Bring red and the royal colors of purple and blue to this area.
If you have clutter in this part of your home or in this corner of your office, clean it up and get rid of stuff. Clean out your basement. It is related to your root chakra: resources, security and stability issues.
Quiet Time
Spend time quietly with your thoughts. Pick a question or two from this post if you haven't thought about what you are up to now. Muse and dream. Your body goes into a completely different state when you let your imagination take the wheel. This is akin to field of manifestation.
It's time to do it. Don't be afraid. If you are feeling a bit perfectionistic like I do a lot as a Virgo, you might be putting this off. Having the power to create what you really want during this auspicious time might be intimidating.
Look underneath what your wants and wishes are. Do you wish to have more time? Why? Because it would bring relaxation and peace to your life? Affirm peace and relaxation now. If you want to take it a step further, go for the gold and create actions that would bring peace and relaxation to your life now. But the bottom line is, aligning with what we want...peace, relaxation, freedom, love, or wealth brings it to us causing a trickle down affect. And now is the time to shift.
We are always shifting, turning and transforming especially so when we've asked for it and/or are willing. I know you are going for the gold, the top of the mountain. Can you see me waving at you?
I wish for your deepest dreams to come true and that your life is filled with lots of what you want. And your cosmic hangover is gone!
Share what's going for you with me. We'll see if we can bring some cosmic-universal magic your way.
Your Virgo Goddess,
Tatiana
