Full Moon in Taurus: It’s Time to Let Go and Grow

As we embrace the Full Moon in Taurus on November 15, 2024, we are invited to slow down, ground ourselves, and release the weight we no longer need to carry. Taurus (think BULL energy), an earth sign known for its steadfastness, sensuality, and connection to the material world, lends a stabilising energy to this moon, offering us a sacred space to reflect, root, and gently let go. Under this moon's radiant glow, we are asked to look within, to see what is ready to be released, and to make room for the growth our souls are calling in.

This Full Moon is not just about release; it is about aligning with what truly nourishes us on every level—emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Taurus encourages us to listen deeply to our bodies and our hearts, honouring the values and rhythms that feel authentic. As we release old patterns or limiting beliefs, we ground into the wisdom of our own truth, creating a solid foundation from which new growth can flourish. This is a time to let go of anything keeping us from feeling worthy, free, and rooted in self-love.

Join us in this ritual of reflection and renewal, as we tune into Taurus’ energy to plant seeds for a life of abundance, ease, and aligned transformation. Let this Full Moon be a moment of inner peace, a powerful reminder that letting go can be as beautiful as growth itself.

Full Moon in Taurus Ritual

Suggested Materials:

• A candle (preferably green or white for healing and clarity)

• A small bowl of water (symbolising emotional flow and release)

• A pen and paper

• A grounding crystal like Black Tourmaline, Hematite, or Smoky Quartz

• Essential oil (optional, such as sandalwood or cedar for grounding)

Ritual Steps:

1. Create a Sacred Space
   Find a quiet spot to set up your ritual. Light your candle, breathe into your essential oils or drop them into your bowl of water.
   As you look into the flame, take a few slow, deep breaths, inviting calm and focus.

2. Ground Your Energy
   Take your crystal into your receiving hand, close your eyes, and picture roots extending from your feet deep into the earth’s core.
   Feel Taurus’ (think of the BULL) stabilising, nurturing energy anchoring you and filling you with steady strength.

3. Self Reflection Journalling
   Take your paper and pen, and let your thoughts flow as you explore any areas in life where you feel stagnant, restricted, or overly attached to comfort. Reflect on these questions:

   • What beliefs or patterns am I ready to release?

   • Where have I been afraid to welcome change?

   • What do I need to embrace within myself to feel more empowered and free?

4. Water Release Ritual
   After writing your reflections, hold your paper over the bowl of water, setting the intention to let go of what no longer serves you. Imagine stagnant energy leaving your body, flowing down and being absorbed by the water. Place the paper in the bowl, watching it soak as a symbol of your release. (If you want to you could also have a bath with essential oils).

5. Speak Your Intentions
   On a new piece of paper, write down affirmations or intentions that mirror the life aligned with your values, freedom, and self-worth. Let your intentions feel as expansive as you wish. For instance, “I believe in my strength and welcome change with a full open heart.” or “I am deeply worthy of an abundance of love and joy.”

6. Final Grounding
   Take your grounding crystal in your dominant hand, and close the ritual by visualising yourself rooted, strong, and receptive to new possibilities. Offer gratitude to the Full Moon for its guiding light, and let yourself feel deep appreciation for the growth unfolding within you.

7. Release and Let Go
   Pour the water from the bowl into the earth or down the drain, symbolising the release of what you are ready to let go. If you wish, you can dry and burn the paper safely as a final act of release, scattering the ashes with a sense of freedom. Alternatively, bury the paper, visualising it as nourishment for the life you’re creating.

Allow yourself to rest in this feeling of renewal. The intentions you’ve set are already taking root, nurtured by the steady, loving energy of Taurus.
