For the New Moon in Taurus for your sign (or natal house if you know it):
Aries
(2nd House) If you were to define your own worth, how would you gauge that? In society much of our worth is tied up with how much we make, or how much we have or own. But when we are talking about the New Moon in Taurus, you’re being asked to consider what you consider to be your most valuable assets. And when you do so, you may just find that there are some things that you simply can’t put a price tag on. What are your most prized assets? It could be an object, a person, a gift or a talent. Or perhaps it’s a certain quality. The New Moon in Taurus could bring you validation for what that is. It may even be something that you have taken for granted. If that is the case, own it. Own it, and look for opportunities to further develop and cultivate that talent, that ability, that gift. Then sow the intention to receive validation for your own worthiness and self-esteem. Especially for those things that you take for granted. Then remind yourself that :”I am worthy of all the bounty that nature has to offer.”
Taurus
(1st House) If you were to describe yourself, what would you say? How do you think you are seen, and how would you wish to be seen by others? Someone who is kind? Someone who is generous? Someone who did the right thing? These are questions that can arise with the New Moon in Taurus this week. This annual New Moon in your sign is your yearly reboot, bringing a sense of self-renewal. Those Taurus people born in the later degrees of your sign from 25-29º of Taurus will be most sensitive to this Moon, although all Taureans can benefit from the understanding and self-awareness that can arise with the New Moon in your sign. And if you were to reinvest in yourself for the year ahead, what would be the priorities that you would like to keep foremost in your mind? What are those things that you consider to be the most important to you? What plans and hopes do you want to most invest in for the year ahead? Create your own priority wish list, then go out and see what you can do to make it a closer reality. A good affirmation for this New Moon might be: Knowing what my true priorities are is the key to understanding who I am.
Gemini
(12th House) Out of the strain of the doing, into the peace of the done. In order to gain the most benefit from the New Moon in Taurus on Friday, you will want to tie up all the loose ends of your life so that you can have some time of your own, away from all of the busyness. You don’t have to go very far to find that place where you can be alone with yourself and your own mind. It’s closer at hand than you think. It is time to connect to Spirit, to Conscience, to your own subconscious world. Doing so can unleash all sorts of creative ideas, unearth long lost gifts, and invest a deeper meaning and value to all that you do. You really don’t need to ‘do’ very much, except pay attention to where your intuition and deepest heart-felt yearnings are leading you. Taurus, for Gemini, is a sign of hidden gifts, hidden advantages, and the unseen things that are going on behind the scenes. So it could even be that someone, impressed by your work ethic, may be inspired to help you. Or things owed you from the past could surface. This is a Moon of lucky breaks from the hidden and unseen realms. But it is also about making the intention to find that place within you that will bring you a profound feeling of inner peace and serenity.
Cancer
(11th House) The New Moon in Taurus on Friday is asking you to look at the ways that you can make what was once only a wistful dream, into a closer and more achievable reality.

One thing that may become more apparent, is that in certain areas of your life, or to achieve certain goals, you will be able to get so much more done when you join forces with others, than you possibly could on your own. And through the encouragement of friends or through a group that you are affiliated with, you could be feeling a lot more motivated to do so. This will be especially so if you also receive some sort of validation through your work, or through an avocation or personal hobby. Taurus is your wishing sign.
