A Checklist For The New Moon in Taurus
Our New Moon in Taurus is coming up on May 7th, and you’re probably already feeling the energy.
And after some seriously transformative astrological events raining down in April, the skies have cleared.
May is that breath of fresh air we’ve been desperately needing, and I assure you that it will not disappoint.

There will be times that will still feel intense, but they will be plump with a silver lining and you will see this come shining through in the most divine timing.
Here are some simple ways you can steady your frequency, so you are ready to experience these energetic jumps and soak in all the magic this time has in store for you.
-It’s time to ground.
Do this in whatever way that feels good to you. Feel the Earth under your feet, in the grass and stare at the blue sky, listen to your favorite music, and practice your breath work. Whatever this looks like for you, do it. Feel your way into the stillness. It is within the deliciously quiet time that we make quantum leaps and deep transformations.
-Really soak in the tiny joys right now.
After all, this transit is asking us to find more joy. Whether it be a good conversation, a meal, a sweaty exercise session, your cozy bed feeling in the morning, or the flowers you buy for yourself, it all counts.
-Practice dropping into your heart space.
What I mean by this is that we all have thoughts, which then become feelings, or emotions, and then desires. Try visualizing your desires and ideals to the point that it elicits a feeling within.

Hold onto this feeling even for ten seconds. Then repeat the words: “Here I am, ready for and capable of these desires." Instead of the word "desires" you can simply describe what it is that you are connecting to.
-Create a plate of berries and chocolate, or a beautiful rainbow filled charcuterie board.

Honey, apples, and nuts along with some good crusty bread and real butter. Whatever your heart (and mouth!) desire.
These foods are from the Earth and provide nutrients not only for our physical bodies, they truly ground us and nourish our emotional and energetic selves as well. And on top of that, they are delicious.
The Universe will respond with her own nurturing vibration to match your act of delicious self-love.
-Schedule some physical self-care.
This could be a facial, massage or body treatment you have been considering for a while. You will be taking care of yourself, while receiving touch, care, and support from the outside.

Opening yourself to receive in this way reminds your body and heart that you are worth being cared for in all ways.
-Spend some time journaling.
Write down everything you are grateful for that occurred in April. I know, it was a wildly intense month for sure.

Doing this is like a beautiful sendoff of an old timeline and sends a message to the Universe that you are ready for something new.
Once you are done, light a candle. Allow this candle to represent wisdom and the intention to alchemize with the Golden Rays of the Universe so as to help raise your frequency.
-Make a rosemary and thyme simmer pot.
Thyme represents courage, and like the tiny thyme itself, this courage can be quietly strong. It is protective, and cleansing and purifying.

Rosemary is magical as well. The wisdom carried within this woody herb is transformative and amplifies all the energy of that around it.
This combination opens up healing on all levels. Add these herbs, and any others you feel drawn to into a pot of water, cover, and bring to a simmer for 12 minutes. Turn off the heat, move the pot off the heat source, and remove the lid, allowing the magic to permeate your space.
-On May 7th, lay under the New Moon sky.
Or maybe in your favorite cozy spot in your living space. Bring your awareness to your 5 senses. What do you see, smell, taste, feel, and hear?

Tuning into these more intentionally and regularly causes us to slow down, and actively experience life, rather than constantly living on auto pilot.
Allow yourself to feel and release any residual resistance or fear you might have around your future.
The Universe is opening up some incredible options and possibilities right now, and your calm, regulated, state is the most magnetic tool you can employ to draw them in.
As you do this please remember you are worthy of all the spoils She has to offer. A calm, abundant and loving life is not saved for the elite, but for everyone, and this undoubtedly includes you.
Happy New Moon friend.
