A Ritual for this Moon: Taurus Full Moon Ritual

Expect questions about worth, money, comfort and security to rise. Taurus does not rush. It resolves in the body before it resolves in the mind, so let your senses lead and notice what feels steady, and what has quietly stopped serving you.

Gather. A candle, a cup of tea, something that smells beautiful like rose, lavender or sandalwood, a pen and paper, and something from the earth: a flower, a crystal or a stone.

Ground. If you can, stand or sit barefoot outside under the moon. Breathe slowly into the soles of your feet for five breaths and feel the earth hold you.

Savour. Drink your tea slowly. Notice the warmth, the scent and the taste. Taurus teaches us that pleasure is a form of presence.

Release. Write down what you are ready to release: a belief about money or worth, a habit, a piece of clutter. Then tear it up or burn it safely in a fireproof bowl.

Receive. On a fresh page, write what you are ready to receive. Place it under your crystal or stone overnight and thank the moon.
