Being a Taurus born on May 3rd…

 Astrological symbol: Bull. The sign of the Bull represents people born April 20 – May 20, when the Sun is placed in Taurus. It suggests a willful individual with meaningful strength and stamina.

 The Taurus Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, covering visible latitudes between +90° and -65°. It lies between Aries to the West and Gemini to the East on an area of 797 square degrees. The brightest star is called Aldebaran.

 The Bull is named in Latin as Taurus, in Spanish as Tauro while the French name it Taureau.

 Opposite sign: Scorpio. This sign as the opposite or complementary of Taurus reveals seriousness and diligence and shows how these two sun signs have similar goals in life but they reach to them differently.

 Modality: Fixed. Suggests how much resolution and change exists in the lives of those born on May 3 and how loyal they are in general.

 Ruling house: The second house. This house rules over all material and non material possessions that are important for an individual and seems to influence Taurians in being so attached and indulging.

 Motto: “I own!”

 People born on May 3 appreciate the preciousness in everything that is around them from people to material things and crave for stability in most settings.

They love to spend time in nature, this being one of the places where they can disconnect and relax. They are in a nutshell persevering temperaments, often more patient than tough.

Flashback to 2022 – Spell for Beltane – Charm to “Tie the Knot”

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Beltane Charm to “Tie the Knot”

Much as the Great God and Great Goddess are said to “tie the knot” of marriage at Beltane, we can create our own knot-based magickal charm to honor this ancient and festive sabbat of which the tied-up Maypole is its emblem! When it comes to Beltane a vast majority of ancient pagans – and certainly any Neopagan worth their salt – understands that gender and orientation are of little consequence.  Love is love. Whoever we are and however we are, let’s craft a charm of nine loving knots. Feel free to chant the traditional Wiccan knot spell* if it aids your focus. This can be found online and in a variety of Witchcraft books.

Using a long strip of natural fabric (red or white are ideal), tie nine knots, each of which should contain within a small stone, herb, charm, or written prayer specifically for the energy of love** – cosmic, social, and personal – however your intuition guides. After preforming your magick, hang the charm near the front door or bedroom in order for its blessing to illuminate today and onward.

The Moon phase for May 1st, 2026 is the Full Moon phase. In this phase, the moon is 100% illuminated when seen from Earth (hence the name Full Moon).

The Full Moon happens when the moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. The sunlight fully illuminated the moon, and this is what we call being “full”. The moon will be visible throughout the night sky as it rises at sunset in the east, transits the meridian at midnight, before setting at sunrise in the west.

The specific point at which the Full Moon occurs can be measured down to a fraction of a second. The time that passes between full moons is called the Synodic month and is 29.530587981 days long.

…

The Moon phase for today is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This is the phase where the moon is more than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 100% illumination (which would be a Full Moon).

In the Northern Hemisphere, the right side will be illuminated, and in the Southern hemisphere it’ll be the left side that is illuminated.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact:

Phase: Waxing Gibbous

Moon age: 12.49 days

Moon illumination: 96.38%

Moon tilt: 144.779°

Moon angle: 0.5

Moon distance: 396,960.13 km

On April 30 the Moon is 13.84 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.
