Day 5: Steady Progress – First Quarter in Taurus

Sacred Rose

Dear Blossoming Soul,

As the first quarter moon in Taurus graces the sky, its energy calls for both action and thoughtful decision-making. This phase is about moving forward—overcoming obstacles, building momentum, and making tangible progress toward your goals.

Taurus brings with it a steady, grounded rhythm, reminding you that growth doesn’t always happen in leaps, but often in the small, deliberate steps you take each day.

In moments when the path seems long or the challenges feel heavy, it can be easy to focus on what’s still ahead. But today, you’re invited to pause and recognize the progress you’ve already made.

Sometimes, the most empowering thing we can do is to acknowledge our steady advancement and celebrate the growth that has quietly been unfolding all along. It’s in this appreciation of the journey that we find renewed strength, courage, and clarity for the steps yet to come.

You are exactly where you need to be. Take a moment to honor the path behind you, the lessons learned, and the foundation you’ve been building. With each grounded step, you are bringing yourself closer to the life you envision. Trust the process and keep moving forward with intention.

Today’s self-love rituals have you taking time to REFLECT & TEA.
