New Moon in Taurus – April 27, 2025
Ah, Taurus Season. It’s one of my favorites, if I’m being completely honest. After the hustle and fire of Aries energy, slipping into something a little more comfortable – in this case, Taurus vibes – is such a welcoming feeling. Taurus is grounded, practical, and loves the finer things in life, including little treats. Basically, anything that feels like a warm hug or a luxury aligns with Taurus's vibe.
However, Taurus’s stubborn determination also means that when there’s work to be done, we’ll be up for the challenge. With this New Moon in Taurus, we see our lunar guide square off with Pluto and Mars, which will bring both transformation (Pluto) and action (Mars). So, if you’ve felt the call to go deep, do some personal self-care, or begin a transformation journey, this is a great time to do it!
This New Moon also invites you to listen to your inner wisdom and cultivate your relationship with your spirit guides. These connections – both with yourself and with your spirit team – will help you reevaluate what comfort, security, and safety truly mean to you. Maybe that means it’s time to find a new place to live or a new job. Perhaps it’s rethinking how you spend your time with others.
Set intentions around what nourishes you – body, mind, and spirit. Refocus on your magickal practice, too, perhaps by conducting a solitary New Moon ritual or inviting some friends to sit around the fire pit and chat about witchy things over the weekend.
Here’s what’s in store for you based on your Sun/Rising signs:
Aries: It’s time to claim your place in the world and move forward with the goal you’ve been postponing. The seeds you plant now will bloom over the next few months. Prepare to celebrate your prosperity and abundance.
Taurus: This is your New Moon! It will impact your identity and self-image, so this is the perfect time to check in with your lifestyle. What makes you happy? What doesn’t? It’s time to get in alignment with what brings you joy.
Gemini: This month, the New Moon is moving into your 12th house, the house of endings, so it may feel a bit nostalgic around the 27th. Your season is approaching soon, along with your birthday. So, what do you want for yourself during the next year? Set intentions for that vision.
Cancer: It’s the perfect time to be a little more social as the New Moon is in your 11th house, the house of community. Take some risks and say “yes” to invitations you would normally decline. You never know where it will lead you!
Leo: New opportunities are emerging for you in your career. You could be promoted to a new position or receive the recognition your hard work deserves. Stay vigilant for moments of alignment – they’ll indicate that you’re on the right path.
Virgo: The earthiness of the Taurus New Moon is right up your alley, and you’ll be feeling great during this lunation. You’re also probably feeling motivated to step into a new experience, whether it’s a spontaneous day trip or expanding your intellect. Use the New Moon’s vibe to begin a new magickal practice if that feels good.
Libra: The New Moon is in your 8th house, the house of intimacy and vulnerability, so if you’re feeling a little sensitive and emotional, that’s to be expected. Take care of yourself and nurture your closest relationships.
Scorpio: Since Mars and Pluto are your ruling planets, you will feel renewed strength and courage, especially around your home life and healing. You also get a fresh start romantically with this New Moon, so enjoy that!
Sagittarius: Focus on your self-care and personal transformation journey right now. You may feel prompted to do a little spring cleaning – metaphorically and literally. Enjoy the process and don’t be so focused on the outcomes of your goals that you miss the fun along the way.
Capricorn: This New Moon is enhancing your self-expression and creativity. It’s time to express yourself and share your heart with the right audience. And if you’re an artist, it’s time to say yes to that new gallery opportunity or collaboration.
Aquarius: This “you” that you’re feeling with the New Moon? Yeah, that’s your new you. Pluto is now firmly in your sign, and with it come new skills, passions, and spiritual connection. You may even feel smarter these days! Enjoy this new stage of life.
Pisces: Speak from your truth, and more people will hear you during this New Moon. Taurus’s grounding earth energy will help you keep a level head even when expressing your most emotional thoughts. Set intentions around speaking up and keeping healthy boundaries.
Happy New Moon, witches!
