THE MOON IS IN TAURUS TODAY! Keywords: money, practical, stability, music, possessions, self-worth, morals, values, romance, slow to decide

The Moon in Taurus is trine (easy and effortless energy) your 9th house of the higher-thinking mind, religion, college, higher education, legalities, brothers and sisters-in-law, philosophy, prophecy, philanthropy, all things "foreign", intuition, long distance journeys abroad, churches, airlines, vacations, international commerce, dreams, visions and teachers.

This Taurus Moon naturally rules "self-worth," which means how much you value yourself. This isn't about how much someone else values you, it's the other way around. Since the Taurus Moon is moving through your 9th house of the higher-thinking mind, you may have an epiphany today that describes exactly what you need to do to progress to the next level. Naturally ruled by Mercury, it is easy for you to float out into the ethers and contemplate higher forms of thought. Make certain you take some of these thoughts and put them into deliberate action where change is a result. Trust your gut because the Moon is in air earth sign (Taurus) which enhances your intuition. It is this lunar influence that may give you a strong indication of where you are stuck, firmly planted and where you just refuse to budge.

This Taurus Moon kinda gets a bad rap. Taurus is often called, "stubborn" when all they really are is "fixed" and are usually clear about what they want. The fact that Taurus is represented by the placid firmly planted bull I think contributes to the misnomer. But it is also represented by the melodious cow who also seems to stand in the same place for long periods of time. It's tough to move a bull (unless you piss it off by poking it with a stick) and it's tough to move a cow (unless your startle it and cause the entire herd to stampede). With respect to the house listed above in paragraph two for all Virgo's on the planet and the house ruled by Taurus in your personal natal chart, you might want to ask yourself where do I need to be poked with a stick or startled in order to get me to mooooooooove? Why does it have to come to that?

Sun Signs are classified in 'Modes' as either Cardinal, Fixed or Mutable. The fixed signs are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius, which are the signs firmly planted in the middle of each season. It is interesting how the Modes operate because they are two signs that square two other opposite signs. Taurus and Scorpio are opposite and Leo and Aquarius are opposite. And a square is when there are two signs in between two signs. And when you put them all together, two opposite signs along with two opposite signs create a Grand Square. For instance, when it comes to Taurus, it is Gemini and Cancer that are the two signs that separate Taurus and Leo. And Aries and Pisces are the two signs that separate Taurus from Aquarius. So you see how Taurus squares Leo and Taurus squares Aquarius. Oh and lookie there, the two squaring signs for Taurus are opposite signs as well (Leo and Aquarius). The 'modes' are always in four different elements - air, earth, fire and water. ALWAYS! Taurus is earth, Scorpio is water, Leo is fire and Aquarius is air. Oppositions and squares are challenges. The Cardinal Signs (Aries fire, Cancer water, Libra air, Capricorn earth) work this way and the Mutable Signs (Gemini air, Virgo earth, Sagittarius fire, Pisces water) work this way as well. Isn't that cool? Make certain you look at your personal natal chart to see where this energy shows up for you personally, so you can make this energy more personal to your birth information rather than as an entire sign of Aries'. If you missed it, Sunday I wrote an entire monologue on how I go about writing charts, my thinking and about those phone calls . . . I really do answer the phone.
