First Quarter Moon in Taurus: Pick-an-image Tarot Reading
Take a deep breath, tune in to this moment, and use your intuition to choose an image. If you're drawn to more than one, that's okay too. Take what you need, leave the rest...
Pile 1
You recently received the truth about a matter involving a lover or a friend. This new information has you weighing your options. It has left you feeling disappointed and potentially disillusioned about the entire situation. A third party, such as a family member, a financial matter, or even physical distance, is involved. This has shifted the energy between you and your person; it’s now the elephant in the room. Serious grief and sorrow are lingering here. This third party seems to be a trauma connection. Your presence serves as the light at the end of the tunnel. The connection that carries the promise of hope, the dream of what could be, the one that would be nice. It’s still too ambitious. You’re being nudged to use your better judgment here. Let it burn. You have to let this shatter, along with everything else built on expired prayers. Let it go so the Universe can send you something you can actually work with, something refined, a passionate connection of the highest quality. Look to the next full moon in Leo.

Pile 2
You’re searching for clarity around what will bring you true happiness, what will be both emotionally fulfilling and validating or affirming. You might be saying one thing but doing another because you’re confused about what you want. The traditional path may not look too appealing. If you’ve followed it until now, there is a yearning to veer off the trusted course, but you’re trying to do so justly and rationally. Consult your higher self and lead with compassion and sensitivity amidst this inner or outer conflict. It may be time to seek structured guidance. Someone objective and knowledgeable can offer assistance. The month of May is significant here. You may have taken a short trip and met this person then. If so, it’s time to contact them now. If you haven’t met them yet, between March and May, you could receive an opportunity to travel somewhere, and you should accept it. Not only will it lift your spirits, but you’ll also receive valuable information that will improve your situation. If you’re looking for work, focus on ways to be of service that allow you to express your creativity, innate gifts, and sensitive side. You may enjoy teaching art or music. You could even be persuaded to join a band.

Pile 3
You’re trying to figure out how to make lemonade from lemons. There is an answer you are waiting for, a creative solution to a current problem you’re facing. This could pertain to something you love and greatly desire at the moment. However, there is a gatekeeper. This person is short and dry; you can squeeze, but you won’t get much out of them. To make matters worse, you may have already left a sour taste in their mouth. It feels like the answer is increasingly delayed, and you are losing patience. This could involve a bureaucratic process, approval from a boss, or a parental figure with decision-making power. It could also pertain to being stonewalled by someone close to you. You’re advised to go to someone else who is also in a position of power, but lower in command, a more feminine energy. If that doesn’t pertain to your situation, embody these feminine qualities in your approach. If you come correct, pride aside, you can get this person to move a mountain for you. They can provide the right signature or whatever you need, as long as you take initiative and show enthusiasm while remaining humble.
