It can be time to start fresh with what makes you feel comfortable and secure, encompassing material things and emotional attachments. New Moons can bring about new beginnings or slate-clearing events that prompt a new attitude or approach to certain areas of your life, making this a good time for resolutions related to business, finances, and boosting your sense of security. The weeks ahead are good for taking care of your money and things. If you’re looking to earn more, this can be a time to seek out new channels. This New Moon is strong for intuition, particularly with your income, personal resources, valuables, and self-worth. It’s time for a fresh start with issues of usefulness, respect, and stability, and you’re likely to feel encouraged, inspired, and determined to make positive changes. Sometimes, feeling temporarily insecure about your situation is enough to motivate you to strengthen your position. While money management can be in focus with this lunation, it’s also a fantastic time for taking moments to enjoy earthy and grounding activities.Taurus
