Taurus Cycle 2021 - Part 1

Hello Wise Owl —

I am utterly transfixed watching the Balsamic energy of the Aries cycle finish out! As I write this we are 24-hours from the New Moon in Taurus. That’s 24-hours for a lot of things to happen!

And as we know, the imprint for the whole year is happening until the New Moon in Taurus at 2:58 pm EST. So in a general way, what we see today will indicate where we are at the end of this year. This is very, very good from where I am sitting because the new energy has already entered. The New Moon is at 22 Taurus - “a white dove flying over troubled waters.”

If you recall, I was talking about planting a garden of our self throughout the year. At the Aries or New phase, we set intentions and are active in what we pursue. We breathe “out” in the world.

If we divided up the year into 8 equal parts like the 8 cycles (like Moon phases), the Taurus cycle is equivalent to the Crescent cycle. What happens at Crescent is two things. Spirit takes over. We settle in and persevere while Spirit takes over. We breathe “in” to our selves.

We actually have two Crescent cycles this year - Taurus and Gemini. This means that over the next two months, we cannot give up on the things we intended at the New/Aries cycle - goals, wishes, ways we want the to world to be.

Crescent cycle challenges the things we intended at New. It makes them stronger. If we give up on them, they do not grow. They wither and die during Crescent. The universe asks us if we are serious. If we do not give up, the “growth cycle” continues.

It really is just a matter of giving up or not. Perseverance or not. Will or not. You don’t even have to have it right. The idea will mature throughout the year. The seed that was planted pops out of its shell and makes it way to the surface. When it breaks out of the dirt into the light of the Sun, this is First Quarter phase - which is the Cancer cycle.

When we have a year that has two Crescent cycles instead of one, this can be draining. We are in “perpetual perseverance mode.” It requires patience - a lot of it. If we become impulsive and want to move things more quickly, the energy will stop us. Things will fall apart and we will be fixing them until the Cancer cycle (which is when they would have happened naturally and easily if we could wait).

We can be our own worst enemies during Crescent cycles. It is the hardest phase. But…we are wise owls. We can hang out in tree for a long time while Spirit does its thing. We don’t cease or pause what we are doing. We carry on with it, modifying and adjusting as the days flow, but mindful that we are fully in control.

What would we need to settle the troubled waters of the world and our selves? A white dove sounds divine right now.

I am going to hold my overview of the Taurus cycle and give all of the Aries cycle to complete its work.

See you tomorrow and Happy New Moon!
