New Moon in Taurus conjunct Uranus and square Saturn—change is on the horizon!

Sudden challenges could lead us to a more authentic life!

The New Moon at 3 degrees Taurus happens at 10:26 p.m. (EDT) on April 22, 2020. Before connecting with the Sun and Uranus in Taurus, the Moon forms a favorable aspect to the Nodes in Cancer/Capricorn, and a tense aspect to Saturn in Aquarius. The Moon’s connection to the South Node in Capricorn brings structures, goals, and traditions that may have existed for generations into our awareness. Anything that is no longer working, that has been keeping us too restricted, fearful, or held back must be released as we move toward the energy of the North Node in Cancer. The North Node in Cancer points the way to new situations and relationships that better resonate with our soul purpose, supporting a more authentic sense of security and family connection. If we have been feeling like a rat on a treadmill—working too hard, striving for goals that no longer make sense or have lost their meaning, we may feel an urgent need for new connections and ways of being at this time. These relationships could lead us down a new path where we may find a more nurturing environment for our gifts, living out our true purpose and connecting with our soul tribe.

Saturn in Aquarius forming a tense aspect to the New Moon challenges us to get out of our comfort zone to try fresh ideas, embrace new ways of thinking or even new technology while creating practical solutions and new structures that honor group energy and what will serve everyone. The new path may involve hard work, commitment, discipline, and maybe even a little detachment as we experience Saturn through the energy of Aquarius. Saturn may test our new beginnings, but if we can work through any difficulties, Saturn always brings us great rewards and a sense of accomplishment after the struggle.

Uranus in Taurus influencing the New Moon can be the catalyst that brings surprising energy to any new beginnings we may initiate at this time. There is no way to predict what Uranus may bring, only that it will be unexpected, freeing us from stagnant situations that we have been holding on to for way too long in the name of security.

Embrace change at this New Moon, work through any challenges, and get ready to begin a more authentic life!
