The New Moon begins its visit in the sign of Taurus on Friday, April 24, 2009 at 10:24 pm E.S.T. In this lunation, the New Moon is in the ‘fixed’ sign of Taurus, which is stable, practical and is materialistic. The Moon in Taurus emphasizes practical finances and obtaining your possessions in a well thought out game plan. Make sure your gains and purchases are not ego driven, but are purchased because of practical reasons and not to stroke the ego or appease society’s vision of you and your worth.
This is especially a good time to burn candles for anything new on a larger scale – like a home or a car – something large and substantial. This is not the best time to burn candles for added “quick and fast money” as the point-of-view of the Taurus Moon is ‘slow and steady moving towards your goal’. Picture oxen in a yoke, neither one can run but it is the methodical, pace of working and saving that brings you financial freedom. You may find lenders have ‘deaf ears’ when hearing your pleas for lending you money at this time. More people born under Taurus are in the banking and financial services than you would believe and they are the ‘savers’ of the astrology world.
