There is a situation in my life that I want to be free of so I started taking notes. I don’t journal anymore but sometimes I’m moved just to write shit down.
This is what I wrote to myself, “Release the energy. Ponder releasing the energy. That’s what is keeping you here. You have absorbed, you have eaten ALL the energy from this situation. Once you set it free? Then you’re free to go. That’s the lesson.”
I don’t think people usually talk about New Moons as releasing times. That’s more Full Moon talk but I like to mix it up 🙂 so I want to offer to you a New Moon Ritual of Release for the New Moon in Taurus.
Is it a situation? Is it a person? What is keeping you stuck? You don’t even need to know… to let it go, but it helps.
A New Moon in Taurus to create better boundaries and stop absorbing and believe, for a moment, that you are not at fault. Yes, ponder that one.
That difficulty is temporary, it will run its course, and then you will move on. You will fulfill the karma, mourn, and go.
Since it’s Taurus, I was going to suggest a feast, to eat lavishly but the most important part of this ritual, actually, is the purge, the Scorpio who opposes Taurus. THE PLUTO.
Taurus keeps. Scorpio lets go.
That’s the lesson of this New Moon with Venus in Gemini. You must choose. What and who to keep. What and who to let go.
No guilt. Go. Move on. Your life is waiting right outside the door.
My suggestion is to create something to symbolize the situation. Even just one word written on a piece of paper. A word, an image… and then let it go and how you let it go is up to you.

Please tell me the valuable personal lessons were worth it. 🙂
I’ve been trying to inspire people on this blog that Pluto transists are needed and to be positive and graceful about it but I have a feeling shit is going to hit the fan.
This transit just started for me in February and I literally have a certain someone’s face in my mind 24 hours a day and we don’t even know one another (in the last year I’ve seen him from a distance at a hang-out of mine and we always stare at each other but have never spoken. Total non-verbal communication, can you say High School? WTF?)
I’m recognizing that this is completely insane and I’ve been avoiding ever seeing this person again but the fantasies just don’t stop.
I have deeply considered moving me and my husband to another country to start over in new scenary for comfort and inspiration.
Pluto is trying to tell me something but I’m still not sure what it is. Maybe ‘you can’t always get what you want (I have Venus in Aries and I need the conquest) but that’s okay’.
Take heart Sophie and thank you for your ear!

I have Venus in Aries too, 8th house. I read somewhere that the best course of action during the square was to do the opposite of your usual venus style…so no attempts at conquest, just sitting tight and letting things come to you. I have always been very er, proactive so this is a good lesson. The difficulty with encounters during the transit seems to be deciding whether to let it run its course and learn something (probably very karmic) or realising it’s an obsession intellectually and try to shut it down. I have battled with that dilemma for a year and a half because although my interaction has been intensely painful and confusing I was learning so much about myself I didn’t want to stop, I was curious about its bigger meaning to my life. But recently it has started to feel like something I can’t handle so I am trying to stop..but I also know it’s not really up to me, the whole thing feels pre-ordained. I have felt a weird sense of respect for it throughout, as it has always felt bigger than the two of us, and that I shouldn’t interfere too much. We both agreed at one point that we were ‘learning together’ but things have broken down now because the wounds it is activating in both of us are really old and really painful..the feelings make you want to run in terror! My advice would be to accept the preoccupation, think about its deeper meaning in terms of your relationships (especially early ones) and not activate an interaction with the person, but don’t be surprised if it happens anyway. If it does, then try and flow with it without getting drawn too deep into the depths of murky pluto, cos he will take you there if you don’t exercise self-restraint. Hope that’s helpful! ps. i wonder what it’s like when it’s exact!
As I read these words I thought, ‘write his name on a piece of paper and then burn it’..it was just a fleeting image, but I may do it now, it’s taken root. My pluto conjuncts his venus in synastry so I am unsure if this action will be strong enough to unbind, but I’m willing to give anything a go…to let go!
I had the same thought too!
It’s time to leave the obsession behind.
Let’s see if Pluto will us!
I don’t want to shoot myself in the foot but with Pluto squaring my Venus for the next year and a half I am wary.
Good luck!

I currently have tr Pluto square my venus too, currently at 2 degrees and getting closer. Be glad when it’s over, it’s been ages, it’s tiring and, although valuable personal lessons are being learnt yadda yadda yadda, I’m not having any fun at all! Good luck to you too!
That one touched close on so much. Thanks another good one 🙂
A release at the new moon makes sense, you are making way for the new of the new moon. 🙂 What I need to let go is private (that opposing Scorpio) so I won’t tell about it, but I wasn’t sure whether to let go of it or not, so thanks for this post!
