This afternoon is going to be an emotional roller coaster. The new moon is in Taurus, causing us to experience intense melancholy and mood swings. Later on, the moon will form a sextile with Neptune, allowing our empathy and imagination to guide our actions.
The New Moon Is in Taurus at 3:02 PM
This afternoon, the new moon is in uncompromising Taurus. As the moon is shrouded in darkness, we too, may feel a shadow hanging over us. Under this new moon, we may feel easily irritated by any inconvenience both big and small. We may also experience uncontrollable mood swings.
At this time, we can struggle to find our inner and outer peace. It can be difficult to see eye-to-eye with our loved ones, and conflict may arise amongst our family and friends. We may have internal conflicts as well. We may grapple with old bad habits or unsavory situations that we can not let go of. Anxiety and depression may be especially present at this time.
Certain situations can be incredibly frustrating and have an effect on our moods and emotions. We are not made of stone. We can not force ourselves to be happy and push aside the darker, sadder emotions. And though we may try our best to control it, those emotions can spill out of our mouths and hurt the ones we love. It is not always our fault when we lash out, but it is our responsibility. If your thoughts, moods, or emotions are having a negative impact on your everyday life, it may be beneficial to talk to a trusted confidant, a spiritual leader, or a mental health professional.
The Moon Is Sextile Neptune at 5:47 PM
A few hours later, the moon in dedicated Taurus forms an impressive sextile with Neptune who is at home in empathetic Pisces. Under this sextile, our spirit and imagination take us to new heights. Watery Pisces is nourishing earthy Taurus, allowing our artistic talents to blossom. We have an in-depth understanding of art and we enthusiastically explore our creative pursuits.
Not only do we have an insight for art, but we have an enhanced consideration for our community as well. Pisces is intensifying our compassion for others. We are sensitive to the needs of those around us.
Now is a wonderful time to create something that could help and inspire others. Ask yourself, “what kind of art inspires me when I am in need of guidance,” and use that as motivation for your project.
