The New Moon on May 7, 2024, graces us with its presence in the sign of Taurus, bringing with it a time of grounding, stability, and the blossoming of new intentions. Taurus, ruled by Venus, emphasizes themes of security, comfort, and the appreciation of the finer things in life. This New Moon encourages us to set intentions related to financial stability, personal values, and the cultivation of beauty and harmony in our lives. It is a time to plant seeds for future growth, both materially and spiritually, and to take deliberate steps towards building a solid foundation for our dreams.

​

One of the most significant aspects of this New Moon is its conjunction with Uranus, also in Taurus. Uranus, the planet of innovation and unexpected change, brings a dynamic and electrifying energy to this lunar event. This conjunction suggests that the intentions we set now have the potential to bring about radical shifts and breakthroughs in our lives. We are encouraged to embrace change, think outside the box, and welcome new, unconventional ideas. While Taurus typically prefers the expected and comfortable, Uranus urges us to break free from old patterns and embrace a more progressive and liberated approach to achieving our goals. This aspect can lead to sudden insights and the courage to pursue a path that truly resonates with our authentic selves.

​

Every day after this New Moon, the Sun closes in on both Uranus and Jupiter— exact with Uranus on the 13th, Jupiter on the 18th - whatever was seeded during the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction the 20th of April is enflamed and exploded by the heart of the Sun, and by Venus shortly after. On the global stage, this could mean increased intense protests at the Universities and wild fluctuations in the global markets, likely boosting Uranian tech stocks. On the personal level, the exact day of the Sun/Jupiter conjunction May 18th is called by some astrologers the luckiest day of the year, so it's a wonderful time to ask for spiritual guidance and support in expanding your reach, to take a calculated gamble, share your most inspired offering with potential clients, and plan a pilgrimage or exciting new adventure.
