New Moon In Taurus Ritual
The new moon in Taurus is about setting and grounding your intentions around security, pleasure, abundance and the comfort you feel in your day-to-day. Here is a ritual that you can repeat on any new moon but it’s especially potent during the Taurus energy.
Use this energy to infuse your intentions with a blank slate energy and watch it grow until the Upcoming Full Moon.
Grounding Meditation: Begin by sitting or standing comfortably with your feet firmly planted on the ground. Close your eyes and take several deep breaths, feeling the connection between your body and the earth. Visualise roots extending from the soles of your feet deep into the earth, anchoring you in stability and security.
Create a Safe Space: Set up a sacred space or altar with items that resonate with Taurus energy, such as earthy colours, crystals like rose quartz or green aventurine, flowers, and symbols of abundance and fertility.
Intention Setting: With a pen and paper, reflect on what you wish to manifest during this lunar cycle, focusing on themes of stability, security, abundance, and sensuality. Write down your intentions in the present tense, as if they have already come to fruition.
Nourish the Senses: Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, so indulge your senses with luxurious experiences. Light candles with soothing scents, play soft music and treat yourself to a delicious meal or a warm bath infused with essential oils.
Grounding Ritual: Take a moment to connect with the element of earth. You can do this by holding a grounding crystal like hematite or obsidian in your hands, or by simply standing barefoot on the earth if possible. Feel the support of the earth beneath you, and visualize any excess energy or tension flowing down into the ground.
Affirmations and Visualization: Speak your intentions aloud, infusing them with conviction and gratitude. Visualize yourself already embodying the qualities of abundance, stability, and security. Repeat affirmations that resonate with you, reinforcing your belief in your ability to manifest your desires.
Gratitude Practice: Express gratitude for the blessings in your life, both big and small. Take a moment to appreciate the abundance that surrounds you, and give thanks to the universe for its infinite generosity.
Closing: When you feel complete, take a deep breath and slowly open your eyes. Thank the earth, the moon, and any deities or spiritual guides that you work with for their guidance and support. Close your ritual space by extinguishing any candles and tidying up your altar.
Remember to trust in the process and remain open to receiving the gifts that the universe has in store for you.
Happy New Moon in Taurus!
