April 28, 2025 | Southern Hemisphere New Moon In Taurus Reflections
As the golden hush of autumn settles around us here in Australia, the New Moon in Taurus invites us into one of the most potent moments of inner stillness and emotional renewal.
Taurus, ruled by Venus, calls us home to the body, to the heart, to the places where true security lives.
The New Moon is a time of new beginnings, not in the loud, urgent sense — but in the quiet, sacred planting of seeds beneath the soil.
In our Lunar Alchemy journey, we honour this phase as the beginning of a new cycle — a time to align with what we wish to quietly nurture over the coming weeks.
Taurus reminds us that emotional security is not found outside ourselves.
It is crafted slowly, lovingly, through rituals, boundaries, pleasures, and choosing what feels right in our bones.
The Emotional Landscape of a Taurus New Moon
Under this New Moon, you may find yourself feeling:
A deep longing for safety, comfort, and belonging
Sensitivity to your physical and emotional environments
A craving for touch, soothing, and simplicity
A need to slow down and feel rather than fix
If emotions feel heavy or stagnant, it’s okay.
Taurus teaches that emotional healing happens through presence, patience, and practical magic.
There is no need to force insight — simply to stay with yourself, to create spaces where ease and tenderness can arise naturally.
If you’re longing to work more deeply with the natural rise, rest, and reflection of the Moon’s phases, our Lunar Alchemy course offers a nurturing pathway into that rhythm.
Taurus Season Energy in Australia
Here in the Southern Hemisphere, this New Moon arrives alongside autumn’s steady turning inward.
While Northern Hemisphere astrology often describes Taurus as a springtime energy of blossoming, for us it is different.
It is the sweet pause before winter — a time to:
Prepare our bodies and homes for colder days ahead
Honour the comforts that sustain us
Create beautiful, sustainable routines
Choose presence over perfection
The Earth herself models this wisdom — letting go of what is no longer needed, slowing her pace, rooting deeper before the long rest of winter.
5 Taurus New Moon Journaling Prompts
Let these questions unfold softly, like seeds sinking into warm earth:
What do I need in order to feel emotionally safe and grounded right now?
Where in my life can I slow down to honour my emotional rhythms?
What physical or sensory rituals help anchor me when emotions feel overwhelming?
How can I cultivate deeper self-trust during times of uncertainty or change?
What inner soil am I preparing for future growth? What tiny steps can I take now?
There is no rush to answer perfectly. Let your soul speak in whispers.
A Mini Ritual: Rooting Your Emotions with Intention
You’ll need:
A candle (earthy green, soft pink, or ivory is beautiful)
A piece of rose quartz or moss agate (optional)
A small bowl filled with soil, sand, or dried autumn leaves
Strips of paper and a pen
Ritual Steps:
Create your space: Light your candle and place your bowl of earth before you. Feel the steady support of the ground beneath you.
Name your emotions: Take a strip of paper and begin writing down any emotions that are present for you. There is no right or wrong — let whatever needs to rise, rise.
You might write: “I feel unsettled,” “I feel hopeful,” “I feel tender,” or simply a word like “trust” or “uncertainty.”
Plant your emotions: Gently fold each strip and bury it in the bowl of earth.
With each one, whisper a blessing:
“I honour this feeling. I plant it into the earth for transformation.”
Tend your inner garden:
You can return to the bowl over the coming days, adding more feelings or intentions as they arise.
Each addition is a loving act of self-acceptance and rooted healing.
When the time feels right:
(Perhaps by the next Full Moon, or whenever you feel complete),
take the bowl outside and bury the papers into the earth.
Offer them back to nature — trusting that what you release will compost, transform, and nourish new life.
Optional Closing Blessing:
Hold your crystal (if using) over your heart and softly affirm:
“I root my emotions in love. I trust the cycles of healing. I am home within myself.”
Optional Sharing:
If you feel called, you might take a photo of your ritual bowl as a keepsake — a visual reminder of the seeds you planted under the Taurus New Moon.
(For those journeying inside the Inner Circle or Lunar Alchemy, you’re warmly welcome to share a glimpse of your ritual in our group space, if you wish!
A Final Whisper
This New Moon, remember:
You are not broken if you feel tender.
You are not behind if you need to slow down.
You are not weak if you crave comfort.
These are sacred signals — messages from your soul asking to be tended, not judged.
Plant them gently. Let them be held by the Earth. Trust that unseen roots are already growing.
If you feel called to work more deeply with the Moon’s natural rise, rest, and reflection, you are warmly invited to explore my Lunar Alchemy course — a sanctuary for honouring the phases of the Moon, just as you are.
And if you dream of weaving astrology, elements, and seasonal magic into your life, the Inner Circle will open again later this year, when the seventh sign of the zodiac turns the wheel once more.
For now, root in. Rest easy.
The seeds you plant with care today will blossom in their own sacred time.
Blessed Be
