The transformative New Moon in Taurus occurs on April 27 at 12:31 PM Pacific and 3:31 PM Eastern time. This lunation is going to shake up our lives for good if we allow it to. The New Moon is considered a supermoon because the Moon will be in apogee to the Earth, meaning it will be in a close alignment to our planet. However, we won't be able to see its brightness because New Moons are also Dark Moons, so their glow is hidden in the sky.
The New Moon aspects the planets Mars in Leo and Pluto in Aquarius, emotionally heightening the opposition that these two planets shared the previous day, on April 26. They create a fixed T-square with these three planets in a tight orb, which can be a fraught connection. As a result, power struggles, dramatic responses, and intense sentiments will be at play throughout the day, but we will be able to work through them in time and create better dynamics with people, including ourselves.
Black Moon Lilith and the asteroid Lilith are both in Scorpio, completing a fixed Grand Cross in the cosmos. The taboo aspects of our personalities want to come out and motivate us to rebel against the status quo. It’s time to take back our rights and fight for our ideology. In the process, we’ll become free of the chains holding us back and programming our minds to believe we shouldn’t strive for more. Well, that stops now! As of now, we aren’t going to be subservient. We are taking charge.
We are expressing our repressed feelings, which are bubbling to the surface. It’s good to let out our inner emotions to allow ourselves to heal. This cathartic process ultimately leads to growth and evolution within ourselves and others in time. Since the New Moon is in Taurus, a zodiac sign that is slow to make changes, we will take baby steps to augment our lives. As long as we are putting in the effort and living our truth, we are already ahead in the game.

Pre-Ritual Journal Prompts for the Taurus New Moon
Before casting spells or setting intentions, come back to your body. Taurus is ruled by Venus and the element of Earth. It speaks through sensation, stillness, and self-worth. Begin by writing.
Ask yourself:
What stories about my worth have I inherited or internalized?
Where in my life am I staying “grounded” in fear instead of power?
What have I been trained to repress in order to be accepted?
What would it feel like to root into my own value?
What slow, sensual practices help me return to myself
Ready to go deeper? I’ve created a full Taurus New Moon Reclamation Ritual for witches ready to rebel, release, and restructure.
Inside the ritual:
Color magick candle correspondences
A mirror spell for unmasking your truth
Grounding altar practices
Shadow integration work
A printable PDF with exclusive journal prompts
Available now for Veil + Passage tiers on Patreon.com/TheHoodwitch
No more shrinking. No more silence.
This moon is asking for all of you. Show up.
