Sun and MoonMercuryVenusSaturnUranusNeptune
The Moon and the Sun stand together around midday. Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are up with them.New moon 15°42′ TaurusA new moon is the start of a lunar cycle — the sky goes dark, the seed gets planted. Good for intention-setting and quiet beginnings. Whatever you start in this window will keep unfolding for two weeks toward the full moon.Mercury 24°34′ TaurusMercury governs the moving parts: words, ideas, short trips, transactions. How you think out loud, how you listen, what holds your attention.Venus 19°46′ AriesVenus rules love, taste, money, and pleasure. What you find beautiful, who you reach for, how you receive. Less about romance per se and more about what you let in.Saturn 21°13′ AriesSaturn is structure, discipline, time. Where you build slowly. Often felt as a hard teacher early in life and a wise one later. The placement describes the ladder you are quietly climbing.Uranus 4°33′ GeminiUranus is the lightning bolt — sudden change, rebellion, the urge to break whatever has become too small. Where it sits in your chart is where you refuse to follow the script.Neptune 5°35′ AriesNeptune dissolves edges — dreams, imagination, longing, fog. Where it touches your chart, things blur: inspiring at best, confusing at worst. It asks you to feel your way rather than think your way.
What it brings up
A new moon in Taurus plants slowly. It favours what grows over years: savings, a garden, a body you treat kindly, a relationship with time in it. Choose one habit you want to keep for a whole season. Start it on a day when nothing else is new.
