Taurus Weekly Horoscope

This week could feel rather dreamlike, Taurus. On the 30th, romantic Venus will leave Pisces and your 11th House after having been on a lengthy tour since mid-March due to its recent retrograde phase, and fly into Aries and your 12th House of the Subconscious until early June. This is the time to clear your mental decks on any old romantic baggage or toxic behavior that might be getting in the way of your relationship status, because you don’t want to bring that stuff into the future with you when it has no place holding you back. Do the required work, and by the time Venus enters your sign you’ll be in perfect shape to receive her beautiful bounty. Since Venus is your ruler you’ll probably feel this trait fairly strongly, but that’s all the more reason to put on some rose-colored glasses and see where the wind might take you.

Romance and fantasy go hand-in-hand a couple days later, which can be a wonderful thing, but it can also be a bit problematic if you can’t see the red flags waving at you because you’ve got rose-colored glasses on. With alluring Venus in your hidden 12th House forming a potent conjunction to Neptune in this same sector on the 2nd, a relationship could potentially come to an end, since Neptune can dissolve things, but it might also bring a romantic confession from someone out of the blue, entirely, since Neptune also likes to bring blessings in its wake. Bear in mind, however, that this is the third in a series of Venus-Neptune conjunctions thanks to the recent retrogrades, so whatever matter bubbles up now may feel quite familiar.

The 4th is punctuated with a powerful Half Moon in Leo and your domestic 4th House of Home and Family, so it’s more than likely you’ll find yourself in something of a nesting mood. Make this time a quiet one, but if you feel like socializing then do it under your own roof and invite some people over for a pleasant evening at Chez Taurus. Chances are they’ll be more than happy to come knocking at your door.

Also on the 4th, Pluto in Aquarius and your 10th House of Career will turn retrograde for the next five months. Pluto is the lord of the underworld, and while it can cause us to face the darkness surrounding us in the world when it is direct, when he turns retrograde we must turn inward to face the darkness within ourselves. This is not a short journey, Taurus; it is one you have been on for many years, so don’t expect this to be like a night-and-day transformation; take time to look at how you put your urges and ambitions above the good of others, whether you realize it or not. Is there room next to you at the top of the mountain? If not, you might find yourself getting lonelier than you would have expected.
