On October 25, 2026 our Taurus Full Moon will exact at 10:11 PM MST, with energies perfecting at 02 degrees Taurus.
Meditation: What is one thing I can do everyday until the New Moon to evoke the feeling of Earthy in me?
Additional Meditation: What is the one thing I can do everyday until the New Moon to help me feel and heal the feeling of Lack of Earthy within me?
One of the keywords for the Taurus archetype is Earthy. The goal here is to release and receive Full Moon guidance on this feeling, while considering and healing old wounds that may block us from fully feeling Earthy within ourselves and in the world around us.

The larger picture and cycle of Moon and Sun:
If we consider the larger scope of the cycles of the Moon phases around the Sun, we will find great support and can gather evidence of our healing path through reflecting on our journals and notes along the way. Full Moon phases are the midpoint of the cycle.
The Taurus New Moon on May 16, 2026, was the initiation of the new cycle, linked here.
The previous Taurus Full Moon on November 5, 2025, is linked here, if you feel called to circle back through the cycle in this way.
Grandmother Moon, please share an aspect of my soul that is coming to light for awareness and healing.
The heavy weight of the Venus retrograde adds to the sensations for this Taurus Full Moon- Venus relates well to Taurus under the “rulership” of the Astrological signs. But more than that- its opposite the Moon right now, having just sifted back into Libra. Its also the last one for 150years, so not in our lifetime we will feel a Venus in Scorpio retrograde. Our kids or grandkids won’t even feel it, but our great grandkids, they will have a visit of this energy at some point in their lives. So our efforts- whatever we have been able to give at this time- will benefit them. That Mayne too big picture for many of us, and sometimes it can do us some good to remember that what we release now no longer rests in the epigenetic of our lineage- it truly can end with us.
We also moved into Mercury’s shadow period for that coming retrograde- and the communication lines are being shown intimately what is working and what is wildly not working. Adding more emphases to our time with Sun in Scorpio and this Venus retrograde.
The aspect of Pluto in Aquarius squaring Moon and Sun during this Full Moon adds more Scorpion fuel, as Pluto is in “co-rulership” with Mars for Scorpio. This adds volume to what is being uncovered from the depths in the light of the Moon right now.
The light of the Moon was also super elusive feeling as well. When I reflect on the images I took over these past few nights, they all have this veil of cloud over and around Grandmother moon. The spookiness of it all with the coming Samhain, the ancient Celtic Hallowe’en. With Sun in Scorpio at this time, the feeling of the veil between the spirit world and the physical plane being thin is a very real feeling. The added planetary influence increases such feelings and availablities, therefore allowing that Sun light reflecting back to us from the Moon to really share some of the spookiness we may not have the courage to face otherwise.
With the Moon in Taurus and a retrograde Chiron having slipped back into the ending degrees of Aries- the weight of healing and giving forth that effort towards healing is really where this all becomes a physical and visceral experience. It is here where I realize much of the frustration with the Taurus archetype can be found in its very real, grounded and practical nature: You have to DO it. With Taurus’ opposite Scorpio, we can find ourselves in shamanism, journeying, occur matters, every aspect of the spiritual nature of things and can be a very different type of doing. And going along with many other parts of Scorpio- everything mainstream pop culture has managed to make taboo or hyper-sexualized. The Taurus part of us means you live through your body, you experience everything through your body. It is one of the reasons Uranus in Taurus gave us the gift of data towards the soma- the body. The very real data telling us what we do with our lives has an affect on our bodies, how emotions live in our bodies. This information came forward in unusual ways, unconventional conclusions we can no longer ignore, and missing data was finally captured allowing us a more complete picture of what is happening within us.
Here in this moment as we are in a completion phase of the final Venus retrograde in Scorpio- we are also completing aspects of our generational lineage and completing what happened in our present lives- through our body. I add the generational aspect because this Venus retrograde cycle in Scorpio started in 1926. Events, themes, historical data from our families and the news through this timeline are all wrapped up in this through epigenetic data. This historical data, along with the historical data provided by all our journaling since we could legibly write down our darkest secrets to ourselves gives us a more holistic view of the feelings and sensations we are addressing at this time. The axis of Taurus and Scorpio are two sides of the same thing, they cannot exist without the other, the way we know and feel this archetypes in our body and lives. Even with a Shamanic practice- you feel it in your body. That is part of the frustration with Taurus and feeling everything in your body- you may not like the answer your feeling.
That is also likely how we ended up here in this disconnected space desperately putting forth the effort to reconnect back to our true selves. To connect back to a soulful way of living where our bodies, hearts and minds are harmonized with all that is loving and true in the world. Again, the challenge with Taurus is you have to do it with you body, your physical effort, with real action. The visceral choices that vibrate healing towards the past and sing ecstasy towards the future.
An interesting way I feel about the Taurus archetype is that self worth is built on your actions. That good feeling of giving it your all, not giving up on yourself and learning how to walk. That is Taurus at its simplest- learning how to live for yourself, to walk yourself to where you want to go and most of all embracing yourself all the way through. This is not to say we must do everything alone, I am not speaking of isolation. I am speaking of developing life skills that allow you to fully participate in this great web we are all collectively weaving. This is where our actions co-create alongside those we surround ourselves with. When we do not give up on ourselves we teach others this is how we wish to be treated. When we give our lives our all, we teach others that this is who we best thrive with. We could look at this in the shadowy ways as well, I am not feeling we need to go there. We have lived in the shadowy darkness a long time. Maybe it’s time we all let the light and love back into our hearts and bodies, and go do it.
Thank you, I love you
