Today, I will be digging into the nature of this new moon in Taurus by reflecting on the symbolism and archetypal significance of the sign, planetary alignments, the decan and degree. I also offer an alchemical perspective on the astrology of the upcoming fortnight.
🌓 Key moments of the waxing moon phase:

13/5 Sun conjunct Uranus
15/5 Mercury ingresses into Taurus
17/5 Mercury square Pluto
20/5 Mars conjunct North node + Sun enters Gemini
22/5 Sun trine Pluto
