Full Moon in Taurus - November 8th

It's definitely an advantage to live our lives with the knowledge that we are made up of energy and that everything around us is also made of energy.....and we need to remember that our emotions are also just energy!
E-motions (energy in motion) come and go and they can also be affected by what is going on around us energetically. 
The full moon is one of those things that can greatly affect our energy/emotions as the fuller the moon, the greater the pull on the water in our body (just like the moon pulls the tides) and guess where our energy vibrations are most active? Within the water in our bodies! 
We are made up of around 60% water so there can be a lot of emotional shifts going on during the lunar phases which are of course heightened when the moon is at it's fullest. Just ask teachers, nurses and doctors how their shifts go around the full moon!
And depending on what time of the year it is and where the moon is in the sky, it can have an extra layer of specific energy that we can harness and use for our benefit.
You don't have to be Taurean to make use of this full moon energy as it affects all star signs, although those born under the Taurus sign may feel this energy a little more than others.

So what's happening energetically for us this full moon?

This month's full moon occurs in Taurus on November 8th here in Australia. It's a bit exciting because it's also a total eclipse and blood moon! The total eclipse will start around 7.10pm (AEST) and will be completely finished by 10.50pm (AEST).
The reason it is called a blood moon is because light reaching the moon will pass through the Earth's atmosphere so how red it gets will depend on how dusty this atmosphere is!

And being a lunar eclipse, this does mean that the current lunar energy will be stronger than your average full moon!


Full moons are always a time of powerful manifesting, achieving our goals and releasing energy that we no longer want or need to carry over to the next month. And just as the full moon marks a completion or an ending to something....it is also the start of something new as the cycle begins again.
This Taurus full moon energy:
  • is ushering in a huge shake up! Much needed change is on the way whether you are ready for it or not. Don't be surprised with sudden changes or shifts both internally and externally. The moon is next to Uranus (the planet of shock, upheaval and surprise) so new things will be felt or happen to you.....but all for the better!
  • this current energy around you is encouraging you to consider the possibility of NEW. We can often resist change at first but just allow your mind to be open to what is cropping up for you right now. Don't try and stop it...just see what unfolds and how it feels instead of turning away from it because remember: it's not just happening TO you, it's happening FOR you.
  • you will also feel the need to reassess the BALANCE in your relationships. Do things feel fair and equal with the back and forth in your important and close relationships? Is there anything you can do or say to create more balance between you and someone whether it's at work or at home? 
  • you might also feel a strange tug of war between feeling like slowing things down and speeding things up! This might mean you feel an anxious or restless energy.... and feeling unsure about how to tackle things. Just remember that this is just an energy/e-motion that is passing through and will feel different again soon. Take deep breaths and do what feels right in the moment whether that be cancelling some plans to get some more rest or dancing like crazy to your fave song to get some of that angsty energy out!
  • also remember that this uncomfortable energy that is passing through you right now will lead towards some amazing emotional breakthroughs. Because you are being pulled to look at what you are feeling....this self reflection will give you some much needed answers and awakenings.
  • because there is so much extra charge in this lunar eclipse full moon, be ready for your emotions to have a bit of a magnifying glass held over them....but this also means that insight, awareness and big 'AHA!' moments are also magnified and it's a wonderful time to get clearer on what you need to do to move forward.
  • and don't forget to set your intentions and do some manifesting as well because again, the energy is amplified so use it to your advantage!

Support for Kids

Ok, so kids are always changing both physically and emotionally but don't be surprised if it feels like someone has pushed the fast forward button on this within your child! It might seem they have had a huge emotional or physical development overnight. Maybe they are doing or approaching something differently...or it just seems like they have matured somehow, then they are just reflecting some of those internal and external changes going on around them. Be ready for first words, first teeth, mastering riding that bike or writing their name all the way through to finally understanding a concept or resolving a past issue they were struggling with. The downloads will be coming in thick and fast!

Help your kids with the restless or anxious energy they might be feeling at the moment by checking in more and using as many soothing emotional support tools that you have...Help and Slow Down blends, bubble baths, quiet time and for older kids, even explaining about the full moon energy about right now and that e-motions are just energy in motion which means they are just passing through the body and will disperse again soon. Hopefully you won't get too many eye rolls....

Your kids might be asking new questions or asking for new things that they haven't asked for before...support this by hearing them out and try to get a sense of what has changed within them for this to be asked of now. Could you help them further by asking more about this new interest....or this question they are puzzling over? Is there anything you can do to help steer them towards an 'AHA!' moment?

Emotional Support Tools 

 Flower Essence blends to be taking during this full moon: 

🌸 Help

🌸 Manifest 

🌸 Spirit

🌸 Intuition

🌸 Courage

🌸 Evolve

And enjoy any full moon rituals you might like to get up to - a magnesium bath, crystal cleansing, journal writing etc.

It can also be a great time to get some energy healings like reiki, and if you can do some yoga and meditation or just sit quietly watching a candle flame for 10 minutes. Anything that helps attune your energy body with your physical body around this full moon energy will be extremely beneficial. 

Make sure you are gentle with yourself and others right now and reap the benefits of working with the energy within you and around you...
