On November 14th the moon will rise in the sign of Taurus as a Super Full Moon.
The November full moon is extra poignant because it is the closest perigee full moon in about 68 years. The next time another super moon this large occurs will not be for another 18 years (November 25, 2034). This is the second full moon in a triad (cycle of three full moons), with the last super moon occurring in December (December 14th).
The close proximity of the moon creates a larger than life impact on nature and us humans as a part of nature. Understanding that our bodies are majority water we can look to how the moon affects the ocean tides as an analogy to how it affects us. During perigee moon’s spring tides develop where the high tides are exceptionally high and the low tides are very low. To further understand how the Supermoon will impact us we look to the zodiac sign the moon rises in – Taurus.
Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac. Often known as the bull, Taurus is an earth element giving us a grounded energy.
It’s important to note that the moon in astrology is exalted in Taurus. Taurus provides a stability to the emotion current of the moon. The Taurus sign channels the moon’s energy into a balancing act. We are sensitive but in control of our emotional state.
Taurus’s celestial ruler is Venus the planet of love, beauty, and creativity. Taurus is about pleasure. Taurus loves the senses to be pleasurable – touch, taste, hear, smell, and sight – surrounding yourself with beauty and enjoyment. Taurus is lusty, desire is a hunger often hard to satiate.
Taurus is the hoarder of the zodiac surrounding themselves with material items to help build a sense of security.
The Taurus full moon is not an emotional moon but an active moon in areas of love and money, the pleasure centers for Taurus if you will . With the intensity of the Scorpio sun opposite the moon, we are seeking the truth within the beauty. The energy of this full moon may find you searching for the balance between wanting and needing. We all have needs that need to be met but we also have goals and dreams of material things. As Madonna put “We are living in a material world, and I am a material girl” with Taurus Full Moon.
This Full Moon ask yourself what feels good, what brings your pleasure and enjoyment. Really get to know the intimate desires of your heart.
