Ebb and Flow: Supermoon in Taurus

Monday’s November 14th SuperMoon (The Beaver Moon) in the sign of Taurus will be the closest proximity of the moon to the earth. Its closest point to the Earth will be 221,524 miles (356,508 kilometers) away. This is known as an extreme perigee. We won’t see another such perigee until November 25, 2034. What does it mean for us astrologically? It doesn’t signify much as far as this transit is concerned; it’s a full moon for all intensive purposes.  You may feel a little more intensely than you might normally but that would be it. Where astrology is concerned it’s the sign of the moon holds the greatest significance. That sign will be Taurus.

Taurus is a sign that places its emphasis on values, whether it’s an object which you possess or an opinion that you hold. The sign of Taurus shares many of the moon’s concerns namely food, shelter and emotional security. This lunar transit will bring to the forefront the question of values regarding your needs. How do you feel about the way earning your living? Do you feel valued in the important areas of your life?   The next three days will bring up these matters and ask you to make important decisions. Taurus, earth sign, is very emotional (its ruler is Venus) and may make this a very demanding time. The good news is that because Taurus is a very earthy sign, decision making should prove to practical, pragmatic and grounded in realistic expectations.

Full moons, again, are good times for initiating or launching of projects. The waxing energy tends to promote and nurture such activities. It also provides numerous ways to achieve likely success. At this time, you’ll be directed to that which you care about most and ask to eliminate that which does not serve you.

Taurus, This Moon is going to ask you to assess both objet and opinions. What do you need and what do you no longer need? As this is a time of harvest, cultivate what is most useful to you and dispense with all dead wood and things you’ve outgrown.

Scorpio, this moon will ask that conclude or end that which works against the pursuit of your desires. Anything found wanting, cast aside and draw to yourself that which you need to help you advance.

Leo and Aquarius, This moon may ask that you address an outstanding need. Whether you require rest, nutrition or possibly change in unproductive habit. Whatever it may be, the underlying question should be “What will you need?”
The beaver moon will ask us to create a reservoir of useful, valuable resources and release that clutter and debris that holds you back. Let The supermoon set you upon an enriching, prosperous course.
