Taurus Season Stillness Meditation
What Makes You Resilient
At the Taurus New Moon, pause to consider what makes you resilient. Focus on your connection to nature, especially in how you experience plants and animals through your senses. Visualize the faces of those who support you. Ponder your local food and energy sources. Then ask yourself what or who to invest in that offers the most enduring quality.
Connect To Your Body
From an emotional wellness standpoint, Taurus can refer to connecting to your physical body as a tangible container for emotional content. Much wisdom rests in the body’s tissues, including access to stored experiences and the possibility of resolving associated traumas. When you connect to your body in this way, you discover how to release the old parts that keep you frozen in time. This facilitates developing greater resilience in your relationship with yourself.

Astrology Forecast for Emotional Balance May 8 – 15
Recognize An Opportunity
On May 8, the resilience you ruminated on at the Taurus New Moon may experience some stress testing. Let these minor quakes rumble on through without resistance. Remember that the strongest bridges are built to sway with moving tectonic plates. Adopt this same policy to keep things on an even keel emotionally. Tune into an important conversation that provides a sense of empowerment. On May 9, whatever you learned yesterday may galvanize you to take action. Keep your ideas in mind so that you recognize an opportunity when it appears.
Slowed By Sensitivity
On May 10, your excitable and curious mood may become strangely dampened by a serious matter you’d rather avoid. Pay special attention to mental resistance that crops up while dealing with someone else’s feelings or suffering. Continue to act on forward momentum but allow yourself to be slowed by sensitivity toward others’ positions. On May 11, the Moon in Cancer suggests strong gut feelings. This desire to protect or nurture stands in confrontation with another part of you that just wants to get on with it. Go ahead and act, just don’t lose sight of the deeper need for emotional security.
An Inescapable Insight
On May 12, that same sense of inner conflict from the day before might persist, but the edges seem to soften. What seemed so at odds now yields a greater understanding of the impacts of life-altering change. Offer tactile comfort to anyone in need. Nothing like a hot cup of tea or bath to soothe the ragged edges! On May 13, an urgent sense of mental clarity grasps you, as Mercury finally clears its shadow period and the Sun conjuncts Uranus. Like a lightning rod, your mind attracts and channels an inescapable insight. Notice how this affects your body and take steps to shed stress. With the Moon in Leo, this means go to yoga class, ride your bike in the woods, or act on behalf of a cause.
Radiate Creative Power
On May 14, radiate your creative power into all that you do. Place your full attention onto every action. Bask in a day well-spent and give yourself extra time to wind down before bed. At the Leo First Quarter Moon May 15, you may wish to express excitement but feel restricted in some way. Act with full authenticity yet accept limits with grace.
