New Moon in Taurus | April 27, 2025
April 27 is the New Moon in Taurus. This New Moon is a Super Moon. The Sun and Moon form a t-square with Pluto in Aquarius and Mars in Leo. Which in turn make harmonious aspects with Neptune. Read what this means for you in terms of energy.
New Super Moon in Taurus
With a Super Moon, the Moon is closer to the Earth, so the energy has more impact on the energy on Earth. A New Moon represents a new beginning. The start of a new cycle.
Taurus represents practicality, realism, determination and perseverance. In addition, it represents money, agriculture and environment. It also represents stability, material security, personal values and safety.
Autonomy and Self-Reliance
During a New Moon, the Sun and Moon are together, in this case in Taurus. They both form a square with Pluto in Aquarius. Pluto is known as the planet of transformation, destruction, and rebirth. Pluto brings your inner and outer worlds together, makes them one. Aquarius represents autonomy, independence, equality and freedom. In other words, community and power to the people. It is also associated with science, technology and innovation.Â
The Sun and Moon are also square Mars in Leo. In our book Your Being we describe how the energy of Mars can help you discover how to awaken the warrior within yourself, how to face the world with bravado and overcome your fears. Mars is associated with drive, focus, assertiveness, a winner's mentality, and impatience. Mars is in Leo, and Leo represents integrity, self-expression, and courage. Natural authority, enthusiasm, and pride. These energies complement each other. Â Â
Aspects with Pluto and Mars
Mars is in opposition to Pluto, meaning they are directly opposite each other. Together, Pluto, Mars, and the New Moon form a t-square. Squares and oppositions are hard aspects. When they form a t-square, it is a combination of three hard aspects. Hard aspects are more compelling, forcing you to take action. They can cause tension and conflicts.
But it's never just hard. There is always energy to help or support you. This time too. Because both Pluto and Mars also form a harmonious aspect with Neptune in Aries. Neptune in Aries can help us stand up for our ideals, realize our dreams, and take control of our lives.Â
Fiery Energy During the New Moon
During the period around the New Moon, there is a lot of fiery energy:
- Mars is activated. Mars is the ruler of Aries, a fire sign.
- Neptune is in Aries and is fueled by the triangle it forms with its ruler, Mars.
- The Sun, which together with the Moon forms the New Moon, is the ruler of Leo, also a fire sign.
- Mars is in Leo and forms a square with the Sun. Since Mars itself is also the ruler of a fire sign, this fiery energy is greatly intensified.
All this fiery energy combined can create intense energy, brute force, power plays:
- Authoritarian (being controlled) versus authority (self-control).
- Dependence versus independence.
- Centralized versus decentralized.
This applies globally, as Neptune is still on the world axis, but it can also manifest itself in your personal life, depending on your own natal chart.
Water Energy
And as I just mentioned, there is always an energy or aspect that helps you with this. In addition to the fiery energy, there is still water energy flowing, through the conjunctions of the North Lunar Node, Saturn, and Venus in Pisces, which you can make use of. Although this is a lot less than a few weeks ago, when Mars was still in Cancer and Neptune and Mercury were also in Pisces.
Pisces is a mutable water sign: it is linked to water and wants to flow. When you manage to combine fiery energy with the fluid flow of water, you can take great strides forward.
Acceleration of Energy
Especially since we are still in the acceleration of energy, with all the planets moving forward. This will last until May 4, when Pluto comes to a standstill to go retrograde. So take advantage of the momentum for a growth spurt in authority, independence, and self-expression of your individuality.
New Moon: What Level of Self-Reliance Do You Want to Achieve for Your Essential Needs?
The New Moon represents a new beginning. It is therefore also the time to set intentions for what you want to achieve and break through in these areas, especially when it comes to your needs; after all, Taurus represents finances, food, and material security.
How to create essential intentions and set up an energetic campaign is fully described in the book Your Beliefs.Â
