Taurus Weekly Horoscope

This week brings pleasure and excitement your way, Taurus. The first major shift occurs on the 17th; Mars has been rotating through Leo and your 4th House for an extended tour, and while the red planet has been in this foundational sector he’s been putting the pressure on, to say the least. This could have left you feeling like your fuse was more than a little short, or that there simply wasn’t enough square footage in Chez Taurus, but that phase ends as Mars moves into Virgo and your 5th House of Passion and Play. During this time, the Universe is going to start sending more opportunities for excitement and pleasure–both romantic and platonic–your way, so keep an eye out because you certainly won’t want to miss them when they start showing up on your front door. This is also a very creative cycle, so if you’ve got an artistic bone in your body then be sure to use it! The results could be quite impressive.

The primal Sun is leaving your money sector on the 20th, so wave goodbye and get ready to change your focus. That’s not to say you can’t still earn top dollar if you put your mind to it¬–if there’s any sign who can figure out a way around a problem it would be you–but you might find yourself a little too busy to focus on things like work for the immediate future. The Sun is bouncing into emotive Cancer and your lively 3rd House of Local Community so don’t be surprised if your calendar suddenly starts filling up with invitations and appointments. You can use this cycle to try and increase your business contacts and also strengthen the relationships you already have; it’s also a great time for self-promotion so if you’ve got a message consider getting a PR deck put together to roll out your grand idea.

The week winds down on a rather jarring note, but you may not exactly know why it is so jarring, or just why you feel so off. However, the world will come calling, one way or another, to wake you up on the 22nd when the Sun forms a tough square to taskmaster Saturn in Aries and your sleepy 12th House of the Subconscious and Completions. If you’ve been letting yourself coast along then you might get called out for not doing enough to further your own development, or perhaps you look in the mirror and realize you need to have a talk with yourself about something important. This is a day for confronting reality and patterns, and it might not be all that pleasant. Take truths to heart but also take them with a grain of salt; if any sign can manage to do both, it would be you.
