Seeding Stability After the Tension of Truth

The New Moon in Taurus arrives amid a backdrop of deep and undeniable transformation. But before we can fully welcome what is beginning to root, we must acknowledge what has been revealed — and what cannot be unseen.

Last week’s Final Quarter Moon delivered a rare moment of absolute precision:

• Sun at 1°12′ Taurus
• Moon at 1°12′ Aquarius
• Mars at 1°12′ Leo

An exact T-square by degree and minute, forming a sharp crossroads between fixed signs: stability (Taurus), innovation and systems (Aquarius), and personal authority (Leo).
At that square, something became painfully clear. Pluto’s close proximity to the Aquarius Moon forced a truth to the surface — a fear, a pattern, a system — that demanded acknowledgment.

We were shown where something in our lives has decayed. Where we have clung to something (an identity, a relationship, a dream, a system) believing it could last forever, only to realize it must now be excised for true growth to occur.

Now, with this New Moon in Taurus, we are standing at a new threshold:

• The seed must be planted in ground that has been cleared.
• The stability we crave must be earned through radical honesty.
• The future we want must be separated from the rot of the past.

Mars opposite Pluto during this lunation reminds us that action without integrity will be challenged. Pride and righteousness (Mars in Leo) must be cut down if it stands in the way of true transformation (Pluto in Aquarius).
Meanwhile, Uranus in Taurus keeps shaking the foundations, reminding us: stability must be living, breathing, evolving. Not calcified. Not clung to.

Venus and the Dream That Endures

Venus, the ruler of this New Moon, offers us an anchor:

• She stands exalted at 28° Pisces, in post-retrograde shadow.
• She is conjunct Saturn (structure, reality) and the North Node (destiny), and trine Mars.
• Neptune in Aries (new dreams) also forms supportive links.

This is a Venus that dreams for the long haul.
She wants beauty that endures. Love that evolves. Futures that are built with devotion, discipline, and heart.
We are supported in taking action toward these futures — but we must acknowledge that much will be asked of us. There will be disputes, severances, and periods of uncertainty.

The stories unfolding now will continue to reveal themselves over the next nine months, building alongside the shifts of Saturn moving into Aries, Jupiter into Cancer, and Uranus into Gemini.
This New Moon is not the final form. It is the seed.
A seed sown with full awareness of what has been lost — and full commitment to what will be made new.
