Taurus Full Moon

“A breakdown of structure…if the sage has been defeated by the adversarial forces, when all is said and done, the people realize that the sage was right all along.”

Saturn stations direct the morning of the Full Moon in Taurus in a symbol related to laying down arms and certainty of purpose. This Full Moon is conjunct Uranus, so unexpected new information may come to light as the Sun opposes the Great Awakener.

The Tarot for this Full Moon includes The Hierophant (Taurus), The Empress (Venus rules Taurus and Scorpio’s 3rd decan), Death (Scorpio), Judgement and The Tower (Pluto and Mars rule Scorpio), The World (rules Taurus’ 3rd decan). The decans hold the King of Wands, King of Swords, and 7s of Cups and Pentacles. These cards relate to radical transformations of leadership and trusted structures as well as careful re-assessments and planning for a new chapter during a period of confusion, illusion and dissolution.

The Moon sits in Taurus 25 in a symbol related to working collectively towards shared goals and the putting aside of fear, competition and aggressiveness. The Sun sits in Scorpio 25 in a symbol about seeing beneath the surface, cutting through illusion and getting to the truth of the matter.

The Full Moon sits in Hexagram 23, and the Sun is in Hex 43, Lines 6. These lines relate to times where dark forces have come to a culminating moment. They underscore the Sabians’ messages of maintaining correct behavior amidst the fear-based, chaotic events to ensure that harmonious forces can ultimately prevail.

Walker’s notes on these lines: Hex43, Line 6: “The situation seems resolved but may not be. Only a steady devotion to correct behavior brings the desired completion.”
Hex 23, Line 6: “Evil feeds on evil and in time destroys everything connected with it. Cling to what is correct, and evil withers quickly away. Good fortune returns.”

May we receive insightful illuminations during this Full Moon that promote our collective healing.
