New Moon in Taurus: Manifesting Love & Money
New Moons are a time for new beginnings and setting manifestations for what you want moving forward in your life.
This New Moon is in Taurus, which rules over things related to love, money, stability, and abundance. The sign of Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus, which influences everything around love. Taurus is a sign that can be stubborn at times, but overall it likes to feel good, enjoy life, have lots of pleasurable moments, dwell in a well-decorated home, and eat good food.
So what does all of this mean for you? The New Moon in Taurus is an excellent time to work on manifesting the things in your life that make you feel good, such as love, and it can also help you build financial stability and wealth. As an Earth sign, Taurus is also practical, and you can harness this energy into creating practical steps to move your ideas forward.
Abundance & Love Visualization
One of the best ways to start is with a visualization. Imagine the life that you want. Imagine yourself waking up and imagining a day doing exactly what you want. This can relate to both love and money.
Where do you live? Are you waking up next to someone? Do you know this person? If it’s an ideal partner, how do you feel with them around you? How do you say good morning to each other?
How do you get ready for your day? What kind of work are you doing? How many hours are you working? What kind of lifestyle do you have? Who do you see throughout the day? Are you meeting friends in the evening or having a meal with your family?
These are just some suggestions, but let your mind lead you through the mediation. Take note of what you see and how you feel. That’s the goal—to move into the way you feel during the meditation.
New Moon Manifestations
Next, write down what you saw and how you felt. You can also write down what you want to manifest in your life related to love, work, and money. If there are things that did not come up in your visualization that you want, write those down as well.
A common guideline for writing these manifestations is to write down what you want as if you already have it. For example, start with “I am so happy now that…” and then write down what you want in detail.
If you don’t have time for a visualization, that’s alright. You can always write down what you want in terms of love, financial wealth, and home life.
If you have a manifestation practice, use the list as you typically do. Personally, I burn my manifestations with the intention of sending the energy up into The Universe, but do what you feel guided to. Some will keep manifestations under their pillow for a full moon phase, place them on their altar or a certain place in their home, others will put it under a dressed candle, and others will bury it in the ground. Do what feels right for you.
Set Some Goals
To help bring your manifestations into being, think about some realistic goals you can set for yourself.
How can you realistically take a few steps closer to what you want? Is it taking a class, applying for a new position, or asking for a raise? Is there a person you want to ask out on a date?
Do you want to feel some more confidence within yourself before you emerge into the dating world? What’s one step you can take to feel more confident with yourself?
Are there any changes you want to make in your current relationship? What’s one small change you could make?
If it seems like your goal is a large issue you’re not sure how to tackle, break it into bite size pieces. Write down the multiple steps it would take to accomplish your goal. Then write down how you could achieve each of those steps. Start with the easiest one and work your way up from there. You may not have all the answers right away, but even shifting your energy around this goal will help make it seem easier to accomplish.
Tarot Reading or Reiki Healing
If you need some support, guidance, clarity, or healing, you can always book a tarot card reading or reiki healing session.
Tarot readings can help provide clarity on various topics, and around a New Moon they can help you determine where to direct your energy.
In reiki healing sessions, I use energy to help move energy out that needs to be released, provide balance where it is needed, heal energetic wounds, and bring in loving energy to the places that need it most.
All of these sessions can be done either in person or from a distance. Distance tarot readings can be done over the phone, through Skype, or sent in an email, and distance reiki sessions can be conducted at a time when you’re ready to rest or even while you’re sleeping.
If you’re not sure what to ask in a tarot reading, here are some options you can book:

Using Herbs in a Scrub or Bath
If you like to use herbs to make your own body sugar scrub or Epsom salt bath, there are a fair amount of choices. You can check out my recipes for a Lavender & Lemon Sugar Scrub or the Love Sugar Scrub with Rose & Cardamom.
If you’d like to make your own homemade concoction, here’s some information I gathered from The Hearth Witch’s Compendium: Magical and Natural Living for Every Day by Anna Franklin.
Taurus
Apple, Cardamom, Daisy, Honeysuckle, Lilac, Lovage, Magnolia, Moss, Mugwort, Oakmoss, Orchid, Patchouli, Periwinkle, Plumeria, Rose, Thyme, Tonka, Vanilla, Violet, Ylang-Ylang
New Moon
Aloe, Birch, Blackberry, Camphor, Clover, Daisy, Gorse, Ground Ivy, Jasmine, Lily, Mulberry, Ox-Eye Daisy, White Rose, Wormwood
For a sugar scrub, I use a base of 2 cups of sugar and 1/2 cup of melted coconut oil, and you can add whatever herbs you like, stir to fully combine, and store in a plastic container.
To make a salt bath, use 2 cups of Epsom salts (unless you’re diabetic, then use Himalayan salt) and combine any herbs you like.
For both, I recommend grinding the herbs to about as small as you can so they don’t clog your drain.
Of course, you can use these herbs however you like. For example, you could make a face mask with mashed apple, dried roses, and cinnamon, or burn honeysuckle incense while writing down your manifestations. It’s your practice—it’s entirely your choice!
