As the months turn cold, animals begin preparing for hibernation and the winter ahead. Beavers start their nesting period at this time, just as humans often begin their own form of hibernation, retreating inward to rest and reflect before reemerging in spring with new insights and revelations about themselves.
Diving into this Full Moon, a Super Full Moon no less, its effects will feel more intense as the moon’s stronger gravitational pull influences the water within us. Being in the sign of Taurus, this moon calls us to focus on both the inner and outer changes unfolding in our lives and to ground ourselves amidst them all.
For those born under Fixed Signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius), this period may serve as a tipping point, shifting them out of stagnation and complacency, helping them release attachments that no longer support their growth, and encouraging them to find new ways to cultivate stability and security within themselves.
In Taurus, and its opposing sign Scorpio, there is an opportunity to explore the balance between building and dismantling, resisting change and embracing it, holding on and letting go. This Full Moon invites us back into our bodies, urging us to ground ourselves, focus on our personal skills, resources, and talents, and nurture what sustains us while ensuring our most basic needs are met.
