FULL MOON in Taurus is here on November 17th 2013 bringing in some grounding energy to help us align with our core values and what truly matters. In these times of rapid change and transformation, Life feels like a river moving us swiftly along.
As we let go and surrender to the deeper current that is transforming us, we are reminded to relax into the waters and appreciate the depth of experience that the journey has brought us, as well our loved ones who are traveling by our side. We contemplate the deeper nature of what we value and who we value and are encouraged to move into alignment with it.
Here are the MYSTIC MAMMA Astral Insights from the most insightful readers of the stars…
First from the always amazing Kelley Rosano:
“The Taurus Full Moon on November 17 is shining the light on what you love and value. When your goals are aligned with your core values, your success is promoted.
“Your power is in the choices you make today. Your freedom and joy is in your ability to live authentically and in alignment with your core values. What you love and value is unique to you. It makes you what you are.
“What you are in truth is far more important that what you do. The world defines you by what you do. This is limiting. Who and what you are in truth is much more interesting and mysterious. The Taurus Full Moon is about finding the Gold in You.
What is true for you?
What are your core values?
What gives you passion?
What gives your life meaning?
What would you do with ten million dollars?
“Taurus reveals your attitude toward money, security and pleasure. Taurus rules your inner resources. These are your talents, gifts and abilities. Taurus rules your outer resources. These are your investments (time, energy and heart). Are you using your inner and outer resources to create the life your want?
“…think about what changes you can make deep within you to promote the change you want in your relationship, work and life. Before you see the change in your world, change needs to occur within you first. You can sabotage your own success by resisting change. Being stubborn can appear as strength on the surface. In truth, this can be your fear masking your needed changes.
“The Scorpio Sun is championing you to move past your fears and clean out the closets of your mind. Halloween is over. It is time to be rid of the pesky skeletons (fears) hanging around. The Scorpio Sun wants you to own your power. Reclaim your shadow side and release what no longer serves you. Choose love not fear. Be fearless.
“Chiron in Pisces moves direct on November 19. Chiron is the wounded healer. He can empower you to find healing and new solutions to your nagging problems. The body is the messenger. Make sure to take good care of you…Rest, eat whole foods and drink plenty of water. Water cleanses the toxin out of your body. Be proactive.
“The Taurus Full Moon message is to align your goals with your core values. This will promote your success…The Taurus Full Moon is reminding you to create your own safety and security. Safety and security are found in your mighty I Am Presence–your Higher Self…”
“Hold a secure position within you. Make sure to consider yourself in all manner of involvement. Make an allegiance to what you have and what you are doing. Find the gold in you. You are creating your reality though your thoughts, words and behavior. You can choose to be the victor or the victim. In other words, you can own your power. Or you can give it away. You get to choose. Choose to be empowered…”
“Go for your heart’s desire. There is a distinction between those that are successful and those that are not. People who are successful never gave up. Failure is not an option. You have to stay hungry. Never surrender your dreams for a better future. Your best is yet to come. The best days of your life are ahead of you. The one you are waiting for is you.“

From the always insightful Dipali Desai and her Celestial Space Astrology Blog:
“The Full Moon in Taurus occurs at 25 degrees on November 17th, 2013. What may be illuminated now may be asking ‘What provides lasting security and stability in life now?’
“The earth sign of Taurus symbolizes values, material security, possessions, beauty, tranquility and self-worth. There is the potential to concentrate and remain steadfast when working with the higher potential of Taurus. This practical sign is in no rush to get anywhere, rather it wants to indulge itself in sensual pleasures such as savory foods, exquisite fabrics, delightful fragrances and harmonious sounds. During the Full Moon in Taurus, why not ease yourself into a state of being which is feeling gratitude for whatever is in your life rather than fixated on lack?
“…With the Full Moon in Taurus, issues around finances, money, and material stuff may arise or trigger emotional reactions. Rather than focus on quick fix techniques to ‘manifest’ which is a quick fix for ego level desires… why not go deeper? Investigate underneath the what motivates the desires, fears of lack and limitation. Heal the issue or areas where there has been suffering or feelings of no self-worth. You may find as you do this, the relationship to finances and money changes too. You bring into your life people whom value and appreciate you too.”
“The Full Moon in Taurus suggests relaxing and being present with sensations and the sensual delights such as delicious organic foods, drinks, fragrance and the atmosphere which evokes a mood of gratitude for what and who is in your life that is valuable. It’s a time to slow down and savor each experience, there’s no rush and one step at a time provides mindfulness in grounding and being fully present to life in the moment.”

From the always illuminating Pat Liles from the Power Path:
“Taurus Full Moon acts as a mirror to its opposite sign, Scorpio, and reflects back to us all our issues with empowerment, intimate truth, and what we must relinquish to evolve as we move through this time weighted in the archetype Scorpio.
“Full Moon is in fixed signs, so we have to deal with where we’re stuck. The imperative might be less intense, but Scorpio along with the Sun also hosts Saturn, our Lord of Karma and Keeper of Time, the Big Daddy Teacher who raps you on your knuckles with something sharp to get your attention and insists on some adult priorities, discipline and focus in your life.
“In this chart, Saturn is at 15º Scorpio, the most powerful degree in a fixed sign=it’s strong! The North Node is also in Scorpio pointing with a crooked crone finger at just where we need to show up collectively and bring to the light all that is denied, covered over, festering and causing bad vibes all around us. Relationships are erupting all over the place unable to bear the stress of Scorpio’s scrutiny and the pressure of its Pluto ruler in maximum torque square to Uranus…”
“Scorpio gives us access to tremendous power and healing ability. This is the feminine power continuum, Scorpio/Taurus – the water/earth polarity of emotion and practical manifestation. Here, we can use it to delve into some cold, hard truths about ourselves and transform what has gone before by opening our hearts to our true inheritance, the power of Love…”
“What does the Taurus Moon bring to this chart? Our self-esteem, our self worth, our safety and feelings of security and comfort, what is truly valuable to us, and the connection to our material possessions and finances. All of this is up for scrutiny.
“Some of you in long-term relationships may find yourself projected out intensely on your partners (or you may find yourself the object of that projection). Because the past, the hidden, the deeply buried is so emphasized in Scorpio, many have to look to original parental issues where as children we have been shamed, ridiculed, dismissed, falsely glorified, etc. and stamped with overwhelming issues underlying our self worth and self love. The bad news – these painful, ‘I-can’t-deal-with-this’ issues are in our face, and the good news – this is the Scorpionic opportunity to bring this to the light and release it.
“Surrender is messy, unwelcome, and scares us to death as it breaks down all our defenses and reveals a struggling child within; we fight it with all the ego strength we’ve got, and some of us are incredibly STRONG! Okay, it’s all very psychological, but Hello! Scorpio is about the psychological, the hidden motivation, sexuality and death.
“Are you willing to surrender your comfort (Taurus) for your personal empowerment (Scorpio)? Well, here’s the opportunity to make a realistic assessment of how your outdated story is ready to be released and radically updated to hold more power than you ever thought imaginable. Your old stories are not you and are just waiting to crumple to dust when you take your energies out of them.
“…It takes courage and a desire to heal. Let the Taurus Moon lead you to nature, Mother Earth and the beauty, love and support available through her. The feminine is being hugely empowered now and along with that comes the need to clear out our emotional filters and distorting veils with forgiveness and gratitude for the rebalancing of the Masculine and Feminine on the planet.
“Within a 10 day period, three planets have turned direct, Mercury (11/10), Neptune (11/13), Chiron (11/19) so the energies are quite concentrated and there’s the feeling of being buffeted and on shaky ground. We’re being blindfolded and spun around three times to give a whole new orientation.
“Remind yourself often what your priorities are, clean your energy field daily, clean and renew the energy in your living environment frequently, even daily if you’re going through many changes, and give thanks daily for having the strength and wisdom to be chosen for a major role in this incredible evolutionary show.”

Lastly, from the insightful Sarah Varcas and her Astro-Awakenings.uk:
“One thing’s for sure: the cosmos is keeping us on our toes at the moment and this moon is no exception, for it gives us the opportunity to create something of substance out of recent challenges; something we can take forward onto the next stage of our journey…until we can recognize the value in looking our deepest fear, our biggest challenge, our greatest trauma square in the eyes in all its fearsome glory, we will be forever diminished by those aspects of life which rise up as if to break us. And we cannot afford to be diminished right now. There’s too much at stake and much more to be done!”
“The central message of this full moon is one of endurance. It alerts us to the need to endure in order to transform; that change does not come out of the blue in the blink of an eye, but step by step as we face our apparent demons to find them dissolving before our steady and unflinching gaze.
“The transformation required of us now is not one that changes the surface of our lives but the very depths of our being, the very roots of who we are. It rewires us so that we can no longer live in denial or ignorance of the consequences of being who we are, where we are and when we are…”
“…the Moon at this time to remind us that the pain which we try so hard to avoid isn’t going anywhere until we encounter it and see it for what it is. Only then can it begin to shift and change into something altogether more creative, insightful and productive. Any lack of willingness to do so merely freezes it into stone, and a part of our heart along with it, until such time that we can turn towards it and invite it to speak its truths, which is how the healing begins.”
“…the more willing we are to feel the pain, the lighter our load will be. Such is the paradox of suffering: the very thing we go all out to avoid, in the moment of its acceptance, becomes a seed of grace.
“This Moon tells us there is nothing to fear if we can face the fear itself, for then we can act with clarity and wisdom, not from a diminished and intimidated place inside which cowers from the truth, but from a place of courage and strength which recognises the gravity of the tasks ahead and the importance of completing them to the best of our ability.”

We will soon begin to cross the threshold of what separates the worlds, leaving the old behind, as we enter into the New.
Leaving behind the density of mind and the reawakening of our hearts divine.
We will soon shine and bathe again in the vibrations of a place we know as home.
You can run if you want to and you can walk. It truly makes no difference, we will all arrive at the same time.
In truth we are already there. It’s the time where we begin shedding the magnificent illusion. Where the dreamer awakens and sees it’s all been but a dream.
Wow is the number one word that most will use to explain it all.
So much love

This really spoke to me, it feels EXACTLY where I am in this time and space. It even moved me to take a quiz and try to define my core values, I got:
Fairness
Happiness
Thoroughness
Integrity
Pleasure
Moving my goals in this directions sounds like a wonderful idea.

Am pleased to announce that the unpleasantness arising directly from the new moon in Taurus precisely on 10th May has journeyed through to a stage of completion marked by the crisis point of the solar eclipse in Scorpio November 3rd. Beginning a new cycle of self-realisation with the rediscovery of geometrical connections to one and all. The ‘already upon us’ full Taurean moon will enable a gentle releasing of residue from May’s events and the perceptive guidance within these timely expressions.
Time to sort my bedroom out! Cook a rich, nourishing meal, have a fragrant bath and listen to some harmonic earthy music.

Are you Feeling the Magic?
Comment: So even though I have had a lot of these awakening bursts, you think there’s a bigger one coming? My SE practitioner is very helpful but she cannot speak this language, and her goal is to minimize the kundalini symptoms, which she calls disruption to the nervous system. I was kind of in a hurry to blow things up, but now I think it’s good to manage things well since I have to work. I have a feeling more could be coming after a certain amount of this held energy is released, but I could be wrong. I am able to do more and more work on my own without her, but the vibration is very subtle now.
Betsy: I was confused about my own experience, thinking it would be same for everyone. I think you are exactly where you need to be and are getting a great result. So just keep doing what has been working for you… The kundalini doesn’t disrupt the nervous system; the nervous system is rather changing or expanding with ‘light energy’. The more you change, the higher your vibration will go, which gets finer rather than ‘shaky’, you can tell your vibration is increasing with benefits you get: more clarity, more calmness, less ego drama, etc. But it is also wise to temper the reaction, as you need to work, which you are already doing. When you truly ‘let go’ (in meditative state of no thought), then kundalini works its magic all by itself. I think it is best to allow some reaction each day by doing meditation type of activity, but also you need to work, so find the happy medium for you. It is like “be in the world but not of it”. So you put some focus each day into meditation/healing or ‘letting go’ and some focus each day into doing your outside work using the innate skills you have. Both things are needed; you work to find the balance that is best for you. If the reaction gets too strong and it feels like you are taking off too much, then you take a day or two off from meditating and rather work to ground the energy, things like that.

Wow breath taking!!! I’m going through a really tough break up and I went through ups and downs for weeks now. I prayed and prayed. This morning I woke up early and ended on this page. It told me everything I needed to know. I can’t even explain how brand new I feel! It’s like I’ve just been introduced to myself or just got to know know myself a little more. Wow! Everything happens for a reason.✅✅✅
