Full Moons always offer us an opportunity to reflect, review & release, and this one is illuminating our values and resources. Things that were important to you back in April may have run their course. Resources that you might have been convinced were essential might begin to lose their luster under the light of this Full Moon…

November 5th, 2025 at 3:19 1m HST / 5:19 1m PST at 14° Taurus

Ruled by Venus, Taurus is all about our VALUES – the material things we choose to surround ourselves with, how we value ourselves (as expressed through our self-confidence), what we choose to do with our time, and how we choose to invest our money.
Aries is the spiritual warrior, the hero, the leader, general, adventurer, and athlete.
In its healed state, Taurus is calm, centered, patient, sensual, luxurious, grounded, dependable, hardworking, practical, nourished.
However, in its unhealed state, Taurus is stubborn, resistant to change, materialistic, overly attached, overly cautious, scarcity mentality, and hoarding.

If you notice any of the unhealed expressions of Taurus in yourself or others around this Full Moon, it’s not a bad thing – it’s just a signal that the Taurus, earthy, sensual, beauty-loving part of yourself could use some love & attention. 

What do you truly value?

What used to be important (valuable) to you that no longer is?

What is it that grounds you, and makes you feel like time is expansive and you have everything that you need?

ASPECTS TO THE TAURUS FULL MOON

The Full Moon occurs at 13° Taurus and is positively aspected by the Nodes of the Moon. The North Node at 16° Pisces forms a positive sextile to the Moon, and the South Node at 16° Virgo forms a positive trine to the Moon. This indicates that the time around this Taurus Full Moon can feel fated, as if the hand of Destiny is moving things around in the background of your life. The Wheel of Karma is turning, and the past may come back, asking for more compassion & acceptance of what once was. Pay attention to who and what comes into or leaves your life over the next 6 months.

Also significant, two days after the Full Moon, the planet Uranus retrogrades back into Taurus for the last time in our lifetimes. Uranus is known as The Great Awakener, the Rebel, Revolutionary, and free thinker. Since 2018, Uranus has been revolutionizing our values and resources. Think back to what you considered to be important in 2018… chances are that your life (and your values) have been radically transformed since then. 

From now until April 2026, Uranus will be doing his final sweep through the sign of Taurus. Even though his lessons can feel shocking or sudden, at the end of the day, Uranus is really just trying to liberate us from things we didn’t realize were oppressive. April 2026 also happens to be when the next Taurus New Moon will occur. Both of these transits are here to help us tie up any loose threads around our values, self-confidence, and material resources. 

After April 2026, Uranus will move into Gemini for good, and we will all be initiated in revolutionizing how we think & communicate (about what we value) – so it’s important that we use these next 6 months to get really clear on what is important to us – and what is not. 

The 2nd Gate/Gene Key is very unique compared to all the other Gates/Gene Keys. In Human Design, this is the seat of the Magnetic Monopole, which holds our Design Crystal & our Personality Crystal together (giving us our lived experience inside a human body). The Magnetic Monopole is also the “driver” of our vehicle (body), giving us direction and moving us through life (similar to an internal GPS).

The 2nd Gate/Gene Key is known as The Receptive, and is The Great Yin Hexagram of the Chinese I Ching (where all the Gates/Gene Keys come from). This is the primordial V O I D – the womb of no-thing, the great veil of Ain (Nothingness) from which the Qabalistic Tree of Life descends, the waters across which the light moved when the Elohim spoke creation into being, and the silence from which the big bang exploded.

In the Gene Keys, this is called Returning to the One – and in the shadow of Dislocation, when we try to make mental decisions (weighing pros & cons, asking others for their opinion, making calculations, etc.), we not only dislocate ourselves from being present in the moment, but also from our body.

This Full Moon is illuminating this place of deep receptivity within all of us – that receives our current reality fully & completely – WITHOUT judgement. So often our minds want to judge our experience, classifying things as “good” or “bad,” which actually causes us to dissociate from what we are experiencing.

When we accept our current reality/experience without judgment, we receive it for what it is – and only by surrendering into the fullness of the moment can we actually receive clear direction from our body about how to best proceed (or not).

There is the idea that “the One” in the phrase “Returning to the One” speaks of Unity/the Creator/God, but I’d actually argue that the first “One” we must return to is the body. 💓

In the Tarot, the Wheel of Fortune is connected with the 2nd Gate/Gene Key. Take a moment to gaze at the card to receive its message. I went into a detailed explanation of the card and how it connects to this Full Moon in the Synthesis Membership. 

In the Synthesis Membership, for each Full Moon and New Moon, I share 3 audio transmissions that are usually around 20-50 minutes each:

  • An overview of the Full/New Moon in the particular sign.
  • Diving into the details of the various Planetary Aspects that are also involved in the conversation.
  • Exploring the correspondences of the Full/New Moon to the Human Design Gates and Gene Keys.

  • Please take some time to reflect on what your experience has been, how your values and what is important to you have changed since April 25, 2025, or even as far back as May 2018. (check the house in your chart where you find 13° Taurus for clues)
  • What is no longer important to you (that was 6 months ago), that now you are ready to release?
  • Where are you now welcoming radical change, where before you might have been resisting it?
  • Where do you need to clean up, clear out, and get organized in your daily life/routine?
  • Are there any health habits you’d like to release?
  • Are you being called to tend to your spiritual connections, dreams, meditations, and inner realms?
