Full Moon: 4th November 2009 (Taurus Moon)

Taurus is a show-me sign; a grounded, earthy, full-body experience. The Moon in Taurus is a big reminder that it is our actions here on earth which matter most for bringing an end to the suffering and pain humans cause each other, our nature brothers and sisters, and our collective Mother, the Earth. How we walk through life, how we treat other life forms makes the difference between ignorance and enlightenment.

What the Moon in Taurus wants most to convey is the message that all the wisdom of the universe is already present in your body; particularly in the human brain. Aries represents the experience of the impulsive and instinctual body. Taurus asks us to recognize that our instincts can help or harm us and others. In order to take this evolutionary step, we must consider the morality and value of our desires and actions. To succeed at this task we need a well-developed prefrontal lobe which mediates our ability to feel and act with compassion and forgiveness by "seeing' the mind of the other, thereby controlling our impulses to create harmonious interactions.
