This New Moon in Taurus Baño Ritual Will Help You Manifest Money and Romance

Astrologically speaking, April 2022 is an eventful month. Not only are there two new moons — the new moon in Aries, which took place on April 1, and the upcoming Taurus new moon on April 30 — but the latter coincides with a partial solar eclipse. While new moons are a great time to set intentions and wishes for things we want to bring into our lives, solar eclipses are explosive surges of energy that can ignite massive change in various areas of our lives. Unlike lunar eclipses, which bring necessary endings and breakthroughs, solar eclipses usher in new beginnings and uncover opportunities.

Pair that electric solar energy with the buzz of Taurus's new moon, and life is bound to get interesting very quickly — and in the most beautiful way. Even if the journey gets bumpy along the way, make sure to stay focused and ask yourself what it is you really want in the areas of money, pleasure, beauty, love, and romance. What is your self-worth? What areas of life could benefit from a release of stubbornness and an increase in patience?

You have persevered through many things in your life, and now is the time to ask for what you want and treat yourself like the goddess you are. Let that strong-hearted Taurus bull energy balance the luxurious beauty of all the things that you desire from life.

The new moon in Taurus peaks at 4:28 p.m. ET on April 30, with the partial solar eclipse following shortly after at 4:41 p.m. ET. At that time, the moon will pass between Earth and the sun. Only a portion of the sun will be obscured by the moon during this partial solar eclipse, which will appear in parts of Antarctica, the southern tip of South America, and the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. This will be the first of two partial solar eclipses in 2022, with the second one occurring on Oct. 25.

Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac and is represented by the bull. This strong, fierce animal's energy is balanced by Taurus's ruling planet, Venus. This planet is all about love, romance, money, beauty, and art, and Taurus indulges in these luxuries and advises you to do the same, whether it's your birth sign or not. Remember, we have all the zodiac signs in our natal chart, which gives us the opportunity to tap into the various traits that correspond with each sign. In the case of Taurus, think rich beauty, basking in the fullness and strength of the material world.

Taurus is also a very logical thinker who takes stock of things before creating something beautiful that can last a lifetime. It's an equalizer, following Aries's fiery, headstrong, full-throttle energy. Think of it this way: Aries is the seedling, while Taurus is the soil that will embrace and nurture the roots from conception to fruition. Taurus is that burst of beauty that peeks above the ground's surface and grows into full bloom.

This is a good time to treat yourself to something luxurious, whether it's a day at the spa, a new painting or sculpture, or even a wearable piece of art, such as jewelry or clothing. Indulge in delicious food you've cooked yourself or helped prepare. Taurus is an earth sign, so grounding is especially important during this time. Take a barefoot walk outside in the grass or sun gaze. Connect with Mother Nature and express gratitude for all the beauty she provides. Taurus may at times deal with insecurity, and these grounding practices help ensure the root chakra is balanced — and that embracing beauty and luxury doesn't err on the side of materialism.

Under the new moon in Taurus, you can wish for more money and material comforts in your life. This earth sign rules the physical senses, so consider what you need when it comes to your physical comforts. What aromas heighten your senses and make you feel more sensual? Maybe a nice massage from your lover is just what you need during the Taurus new moon. This sign wants you to enjoy life, so show gratitude and appreciation for what you have and wish for things that will bring even more satisfaction and contentment.

Do you need to be more reliable or set healthy boundaries so you're not always accessible to everyone all the time? Allow yourself time to become aware of your personal needs under the new moon in Taurus and the partial solar eclipse. Taurus rules the throat, neck, voice, and vocal cords, so speak your truth, ask for what you want at full volume, and be confident that your wishes are being heard and that, in divine timing, they will come true.

A spiritual prayer is your private conversation with the divine, a higher power, God, or whatever you feel most connected to. You can pray for yourself, another, or a collective. Whatever words you choose are yours and yours alone. While there are suggestions for prayers, in its truest form, this is a conversation you have with your life's cocreator, so the words can only come from your true essence — your heart.

"I pray to usher more money into my life and create generational wealth for my family. The more money I make, the more people I can help. I pray to reestablish my relationship with money so that it works for me as I continue creating the life I deserve for my family and me."

The Hierophant represents learning from knowledgeable teachers who can help you on your journey. King of Pentacles can also represent Taurus, because this king has achieved all the luxuries of life and lives a balanced existence of comfort, stability, extravagance, and bliss.

Heart — Taurus is strong and extravagant, but at its core, this bull is all about love.
