On Manifestation and Magic: Tonight's Taurus New Moon

Are you feeling that new moon energy, friends? Depending on where Taurus appears in your birth chart, you could be feeling lit up by this lunation, or drained of all energy, or you might not even notice much at all. But new moons are powerful times to send your intentions out into the universe and manifest abundance into reality. Let’s get into it, shall we?

A New Moon in Taurus Occurs at 3:02 PM

This afternoon, a new moon occurs in Taurus, the sign of the bull. New moons always coincide with the current sun sign. So you might say we’re getting a double dose of Taurus energy right now. Which, I think you’ll agree, might be a welcome change after our chaotic Aries season over the last month.

New moons are excellent manifestation portals, so it’s time to do some intention setting. Where do you want to be when the full moon in Taurus hits on November 19, 2021?

Get specific. What sort of abundance will you manifest over the next six months? Do you wish to call in a new partner? Will you be looking for a new work opportunity? Do you have financial goals you’d like to see come to fruition? How about health or fitness milestones? If you’ve pulled your birth chart, you can see which astrological house this new moon will be in for you, and that can help you set intentions for the next cycle.

This is a particularly powerful new moon, as it’s the last lunation before eclipse season starts. Eclipse season is a bit chaotic and unpredictable, so it’s not advisable for manifestation work. So get that moon magic in while you can!

Today, take time to write these goals down, in as much detail as possible. Truly visualize them coming true. Meditate, and then journal on them. If you’d like to treat this as a new moon ritual (and why wouldn’t you?) you could pull some tarot or oracle cards for guidance, and then burn your list of intentions (outside and in a fireproof vessel!) to seal the ritual.

Otherwise, tuck those pages into a notebook, and check back in November to see what sort of manifestation powers you’ve been able to harness under this new moon.

The Moon Is Sextile Neptune at 5:47 PM

This evening, the moon in earthy Taurus forms a sextile with Neptune in dreamy Pisces. Expect this to bring up an active, vivid imagination and a good dose of empathy. Your sensitivity and emotions will be heightened, and you’ll feel more in touch with not only your own feelings but those around you as well.

You’re especially sensitive to negative energies this evening. Your intuition and psychic abilities are heightened at this time. It’s a fantastic opportunity to work with a divination practice. Keep a journal with you to record any flashes of insight you get today.
