A Full Moon to Rest, Restore, and Recenter
Oh, how good this one feels. After months of intense eclipses, retrogrades, and global shakeups, this Taurus Full Super Moon arrives as a soothing balm — luminous, steady, and beautifully grounded.
The Moon is exalted in Taurus, one of her happiest placements, and she’s extra close to Earth, appearing larger and brighter than usual!
The nature of Taurus is peace-loving, patient, and rooted in the simple pleasures of life. Under her glow, we are reminded that beauty isn’t frivolous — it’s medicine.
Adding to the magic, Venus — Taurus’ ruling planet — is at home in Libra, lending the Moon an extra kiss of harmony, balance, and grace. Together, they invite us to rest in the knowing that abundance and peace grow from appreciation, not from striving.
Aspects of the Taurus Full Moon
7/16 Mercury in Sagittarius — Expansive thinking and a desire for meaning; speak truth with warmth and perspective.
Decile Venus in Libra — Small but sweet moments of connection; harmony in words and tone.
Quintile Jupiter in Cancer — Creative generosity and emotional growth; beauty expands where gratitude flows.
Semisquare Neptune in Pisces — Dreams need grounding; watch for idealizing what’s unstable.
Biseptile Pluto in Aquarius — A sacred tension between individuality and unity; transformation through authenticity.
Sextile North Node in Pisces — Opportunities to align with your higher calling through compassion and trust.
Together, these aspects weave a theme of restoring faith in the goodness of life — not by ignoring the world’s turmoil, but by choosing to stay centered within it.

A Cosmic Pause in the Midst of Movement
If you’re like me, you might be craving a moment of quiet amid the ongoing swirl of global and personal change. This Full Moon is a gentle reminder: even in times of great movement, stillness is sacred.
Take a walk under Luna’s radiant light. Feel her steady presence. Reflect on what has bloomed in your life since the Taurus New Moon earlier this year. Then, let gratitude and simplicity be your compass as you plan your next steps...
Because — yes — there is movement coming!

✨ Planetary Highlights for the Week
🌸 Venus moves from her comfort zone in Libra into the depths of Scorpio on Thursday. Love gets real, raw, and passionate.
🌍 On Friday, November 7th, retrograde Uranus dips back into Taurus for the final time before his full shift into Gemini next February. This is a final review of the themes of liberation, value, and embodiment that Uranus has stirred in Taurus since 2018.
💫 Meanwhile, Mercury is preparing to station retrograde at 6°52’ Sagittarius on November 9th, retracing his steps back to 20°43’ Scorpio. His pre-retrograde shadow began on October 23rd, so if you’ve noticed tech hiccups or miscommunications, that’s your cue to start tying up loose ends.
Now’s the time to back up files, sign key papers, and handle repairs before the retrograde begins.

Note About Mercury Retrograde
Mercury, our cosmic messenger, is the closest planet to the Sun — which is why he moves quickly and retrogrades often. Every four months or so, he passes between the Earth and the Sun, creating a kind of energetic interference pattern.
During this time, we’re more prone to experience miscommunications, travel delays, and tech glitches — not because Mercury is “out to get us,” but because we’re meant to slow down and revisit what needs refinement.
Things that fall under Mercury’s domain:
Communication (emails, social media, conversations)
Travel (cars, flights, routes)
Dexterity (tasks done with the hands; surgeries are best postponed)
🔁 Mercury retrograde is not ideal for new beginnings — but it’s perfect for anything that starts with “re”: review, revise, repair, reconnect, reflect, rekindle.
And there’s a silver lining: our right-brain creativity and intuition often heighten under this influence, making it an excellent period for art, writing, and spiritual practice.
Closing Reflections & Invitation
So, my lovely, intrepid journeyer — as Luna shines her silvery light across the landscape, let yourself rest in her calm.
Let this Taurus Full Moon be your exhale — a reminder that you don’t have to hold the whole world on your shoulders. Beauty, simplicity, and peace are not luxuries; they’re nourishment for the soul.
As Uranus prepares to revisit and then leave Taurus for good, and Mercury slows down to retrace his steps, this is your time to clear the path and reconnect with what truly matters — to root our dreams in reality and move forward with clarity.
If you feel the stirrings of transformation in your own chart and would like support interpreting the deeper story unfolding for you, I’d love to help you uncover the wisdom within your stars.
✨ Schedule a S.P.A. for the Soul™ Discovery Call to explore your cosmic blueprint and find your next steps with grace and grounding.
It’s time to shed old baggage, reconnect with the rhythms of your body and the earth… and trust that we are indeed on the threshold of a new world — one we’re co-creating together.
With so much love and gratitude,
Elise
