Taurus Full Moon Miniscopes
TAURUS FULL
MOON MINISCOPES
Keeping Grounded.
This Full Moon occurs in Taurus 8º on October 31st at 10:49 AM EST. A surprising Full Moon - one that may feel jolting and somewhat shocking. The Sun and Uranus oppose at the exact degree, new information is brought to light. We must not be shaken by what is surfaced. The Moon joins Uranus to intensify our emotions. We feel unsettled in some ways, but also we could feel inspired by the news that is given to us. The Moon is exalted in Taurus, so we may be able to ground our emotional natures well if we don’t get carried away by what is revealed to us. We have gotten tastes of this with the Mercury/Uranus oppositions during two different points in October. Just be as careful as possible, as Uranus aspects can cause accidents or incidents, as well.
Mercury and Mars are still retrograde, so things are not fully clear to us right now. Things are not as bad as they seem. Our heart centers are wide open, and we are getting ready to fully release all of the tension we have been holding onto for the past few weeks. The Venus/Chiron aspect of this Full Moon relates to the Sun/Chiron aspect of the Full Moon on the 1st of this month. We can heal greatly from anything that is brought to our attention. We just have to move in that direction. Uranus will cause a stir, but it will spark a new path and all-new inspiration into our lives - collectively and individually. We are moving toward a new collective state. Some things just aren’t meant to come with us. The Mercury/Saturn aspect is asking us to be realistic but not rigid. It does not serve us to hold onto old, outdated ideas. Change is coming. The fog will lift soon. Venus is the leader of this Full Moon and asks for us to be vulnerable.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 5º to 13º, you will feel the effects of this Full Moon the most. Especially those with strong Fixed placements. So, let’s break this down by sign!
ARIES TO CANCER
Aries & Aries Rising
Aries, this Full Moon falls in your 2nd House! There may be a temporary shakeup with finances for you or someone may try to break down your confidence! Whatever happens, don’t let it overpower you. It is a moment of chaos that will unearth greater resources that you may not have realized were available to you. Uranus is causing disruption, so you may not be seeing the issue clearly. This is when you need to step back and not get caught up in the mess. This is also affecting resources that are outside of income, including your energetic resources. There can a duality to the energy in you, it swells, and then you crash without much explanation. With Mars Retrograde in your sign, it can be hard to maintain energy levels right now. The Sun is in your 8th House asking you to open up to those around you and reach out if you need help, especially as Venus opposes Chiron, also in your sign. You are healing through past relationships and self-worth issues. Don’t be so hard on yourself. Chiron gives you the chance to end old habits and cycles that have been holding you back. Use this Full Moon energy to release and give yourself a break. The Taurus energy is exalted, so whatever you seek to release or manifest will come to you. Be specific and mindful. Mercury and Saturn square for the 2nd time. This can cause you to feel overwhelmed by either a partner or work. Try to redirect this energy into planning or grounding yourself in some way. Things are coming to a head now. Protect your most valuable resource, your energy, and well-being now. Watch your finances and stay grounded.
Taurus & Taurus Rising
Taurus, this is a Full Moon in your sign! Full Moon’s are about the release, so now is the time to think about what you can let go of to help you move ahead. Uranus is conjunct this Full Moon and also in your sign, creating an air of unpredictability at this time. It is hard to determine the outcome of Uranus in conjunction, as it will cause shake-ups and surprises. It seems that you may be the one who is doing this to others - or you may find that you are feeling ready for a major change! The Sun is opposed to both the Moon and Uranus in your 7th House, so this will place some emphasis on boundaries or a relationship. Right now, speaking your mind will be important, as you need to make sure that you are not getting taken advantage of by others. Some of you may get married, engaged, or take your relationship to the next level around this Full Moon. Part of this could be the life change as a result of the Uranus aspect! Venus, the ruler of your sign and this Full Moon, is opposing Chiron - so you may be learning some lessons in work/life balance or trying to find ways to ensure you are still resting. Make sure you release any guilt for needing to take a break. Your body is asking for it, just as much as your spirit is. Venus will have you focus on healing your body first. Mercury is square Saturn at this time, so don’t feel like overextending yourself right now - especially with Mars in Retrograde. Slow and steady is important. We are going to be leaving these retrograde periods in the coming weeks, which will help with forwarding momentum. Now is more of a time for release. When Mars finally moves into your sign in the New Year, you will be able to tackle any projects you pushed aside.
Gemini & Gemini Rising
This Full Moon comes in hot on Halloween and Samhain this year! For you, it will be impacting your 12th House. If something has been buried beneath the surface, now is not the time to suppress it any further. This Full Moon will make sure that it comes bubbling up to the top with no warning in some ways. Uranus is conjunct this Full Moon, so whatever is brought to your attention may be surprising or shocking. You may find out about a secret or some missing information that was not privy to you prior. It could also be that something that you have left hidden will come out to others. Watch what you say and to whom right now. With Mercury, your ruling planet, in square to Saturn, you are best to confront any issue head-on in a practical and levelheaded manner. Don’t let anxiety or fear get the best of you! Venus will be opposed to Chiron. It is asking you to face any issues you have had in the past with self-expression, feeling loved, or belonging. You are valid - and you always have been. Releasing these wild and outdated ways of thinking that limit you are important. Part of this is owning who you are wholly without worrying about what other people will think. No matter what happens, this Full Moon will feel jolting. For some of you, it may further or jumpstart your spirituality in some way. Let go and trust your intuition will guide you now. Don’t get caught up in Uranus’s swirling changes. Just adapt and grow with them.
Cancer & Cancer Rising
Full Moons are powerful for you - and you feel the waxing and waning of their energy so strongly. This Full Moon in Taurus falls in your 11th House and is conjunct Uranus. The 11th House rules Hopes, Dreams, and Wishes but also Friendships, Networking, and Associations. You may feel inspired to jumpstart a dream or work toward an aspiration of yours. You may also join a new group or association of some kind.

For some Cancers, there may be friendships that end, but others will begin! This Full Moon reminds you that if anything is stagnant and unhelpful, you have to let it go. Uranus will make sure of that. Mercury and Saturn are square right now pulling you in two directions. This is between a partner and a parent or family member. There may be a disagreement or something that comes up that causes you to have to put more focus on one rather than the other. This seems like it has a heaviness around it with Saturn involved, but whatever the obstacle, you can overcome. Let your home be the source of your sanctuary now, especially with both Venus and Mercury your 4th House. Venus is opposed to Chiron, so that family or home-related occurrence will also spark some healing for you, no matter how painful it may be.
