This meditation focuses on connection to the earth and sensing internal stability and abundance. The May 6th new moon in Taurus is part of a grand trine in the Earth element that supports deep inner healing, stabilizing of intention, and the manifestation, or concretization of the "seeds" that we plant at this time, meaning literal seeds in the ground as well as metaphoric thought, action, and intent seeds.

Taurus rules the lower jaw, throat, neck and shoulders. It is the guardian of the 5th Chakra- a place of discernment surrounding choices we make to swallow/consume and speak/make impact. The meditation from 2 weeks ago during the full moon in Scorpio deals more specifically with the body affiliations.

This meditation focuses on releasing pent up energy from the "gates" of the body that are ruled by this full moon. Taurus rules the throat and 5th Chakra, Scorpio rules the eliminative and reproductive organs and the 2nd Chakra. These two places are portals to give and receive, and where we are able to make choices around what we speak, what we swallow, what we release, and what we let in.

Due to the nature of these spaces there is often intense emotional stagnation/frustration that gathers in them. They are also places where many of us hold memories of abuse.

This meditation utilizes the energy of the Taurus/Scorpio axis and full moon to bring awareness into the body and find gentle, integrative ways to release pent-up pressure.
