Taurus Weekly Horoscope

You have plenty of things to look forward to this week, Taurus. There is a stellar sextile overhead on the 9th when your ruler Venus reaches out from Aries and your fantastical 12th House of the Subconscious to sextile alchemical Pluto in Aquarius and your ambitious 10th House of Career. This transit could bring a sudden victory or unexpected windfall on the professional front, and you probably won’t see it coming until it is staring at you right in the face. That being said, Pluto in your 10th House can make you a little ruthless in the pursuit of your goals, so make sure you aren’t pushing anyone out of the way in your efforts to get to the top. Since Venus also rules romance, this could bring a loving interlude into your life, or perhaps even a romantic confession from someone unexpected, perhaps someone a little higher up the cosmic ladder who has noticed all your alluring qualities.

There is more good news coming on the 10th: bountiful Jupiter, who has been retrograding through Cancer and your 3rd House of Local Community and Communications for the last couple of months, will finally turn direct, bringing with it new opportunities and more positivity than we have experienced in quite some time. This change will give you the chance to feel like life is more exciting and interesting than it has been in some time, with plenty of new people and new ideas to catch your attention. It won’t be an overnight shift, but you can expect life to start to pick up, especially once Mercury also turns direct next week, adding even more positivity to the social scene.

The 11th features a balancing Half Moon in Sagittarius and your intimate 8th House of Sex and Shared Resources, which could set you up for some encounters that prove both pleasing and rather intense. If there has ever been a moment to disappear behind closed doors with someone special and throw away the key, it would most certainly be this one; you can let your fantasies take over without any guilt. It’s a great time to break down boundaries and barriers, so don’t be afraid to go there as necessary.

The 15th could bring a few fireworks into the picture, and not necessarily the best kind. Messenger Mercury is retrograding through Pisces and your 11th House of Social Networks and Global Communities, creating confusion and even a little chaos in your social life, and on Sunday the cosmic communicator will conjoin fiery Mars in this same sector. Mars is moving forward at full speed, so you may feel like people are pushing you to get out and connect with others, while Mercury retrograde is encouraging you to look in the rearview mirror. Don’t be shocked if you encounter a bit of drama or trouble within a particular network, perhaps with friends or some other crew; this is not a lengthy transit, but it is a complicated one.
