What this lunation illuminates
A new moon in Taurus invites you to plant a seed of stability, softness and the concrete. What you set down here is meant to last.
A good moment to take your time and anchor an intention tied to what nourishes and secures you.
The Vedic layer: Ashwini
Your Moon moves through Ashwini, the nakshatra of beginnings and vital drive. Something in you knows how to start, to restart, to set things in motion again: your soul loves departures, and getting back on your feet often comes to you through action rather than waiting.
