Taurus May 2024

There’s a lot going on inside you at the moment. In fact, you have more planets in your sign than any other sign in the zodiac. Due to Mercury retrograde in your twelfth house of the unconscious for most of the last month of April, you may feel as if your mind has been messed with. For you, in particular, this May, you’re going to need much more freedom and space to do things your own way. As a result of this, you become more fiercely independent than you’ve ever been in your life.

What has been will now be in the past, and you’re being directed to the new, and a new beginning.

Change, in itself, can be difficult and painful for the bull. As even when it’s the best thing in the world, change is traumatic and stressful by its very nature.

But you are one of the most the most enduring and determined persons there is, so I know you can deal with this. And deal with it well.

Just look at all that your first house of self – the most physical self – has in it!

All in Taurus:

Shining powerhouse Sun

Fortunate planet of love and beauty, your natural ruler, Venus

Lotto lucky Jupiter

Genius sudden Uranus, bringing events most unexpectedly

A new money Moon on Tuesday, May 7

Laser beam thinker Mercury as of Wednesday, May 15

Your first house, traditionally ruled by confident Aries, covers these areas:

You in the public world

Your body

Your looks

Your identity

Your image

How you appear

Your demeanor

Moving forward

Optimism and hope

Now would be an excellent time to start letting go of the past. To clear the cobwebs from your mind. God knows you’ve endured enough in your life.

But forces are spinning now, and it’s really impossible for you to resist. Try as you might.

Some of you very happily attached bulls are scared of a potential love affair. Look deep into your heart. You’re as faithful as they come.

Remember how great you are. At your intrinsic core.

A new look at the end of April — inspired and brought about by a trip away that you take — will revamp you and give you a glowing confidence. And it might not be completely “new”, but an old look that you bring back. It’s gorgeous!

For attached bulls, whatever has not been said, is bound to be said. And your bond can only get stronger.

Single Taurus, put your faith in love, and have a go at leaping in. Don’t hermit yourself as you have been — get out there and mingle!

Career is full of unexpected turns. Try to take each day as it comes. You may find yourself working with a new person or persons. It is really just about adjustment. You will succeed – as always.

You will cease your worrying. Enough to give your working relationship the space it needs to do the right thing.

And it will.

You, now, have been doing all correctly. Professionally and financially you are lining up your ducks in a row. You will not see all the good results of this until the end of May — but have faith, dear Taurus, have faith!

This is particularly potent now that winter has ended, and spring has sprung for many of us.

And so we have the seasons. (Astrology is based on the northern hemisphere, but for the southern hemisphere, just reverse.) And so we have, too, the connection of birth and reproduction. Parent and child at its most primal. Creator and offspring.

After a much-needed Time Out, you see clearly again. Those who once questioned your motives now return to offer support. Healing a rather hot mess of crossed communications. Like balm to your soul! Things go much easier, and you don’t feel so burdened.

The essential YOU is not only being protected, it’s being blessed, and given a fresh shine.

You’ve worked very hard, and you’ve built up considerable self-esteem, as well as a nice nest egg (definitely the seeds for one). While you may not gamble at a casino, you may now gamble on love. You may gamble on something creative, too. Let yourself experiment and be thrilled with the results!

Because – seriously – you’ve been doing everything right, but with so little return. Now the planetary power is in your sign, your court, and your buried mojo returns, easing the disappointment of recent losses. May brings money – and new understandings with contacts you thought were out of reach.

There’s been so much same-old, same-old, that you’re surprised by all the changes around you. Uranus is busy throwing its surprises into Taurus.

Wallace Stegner, historian, environmentalist and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, wrote: “The wound kills that does not bleed.” You’re being so strong, calm and collected that no one has any idea what’s going on inside. You have to let it out – to let it “bleed” – now. RELAX, dear one. If you fall, you now have a good community to catch you. But don’t worry about falling. It’s all going to be okay.

On Tuesday, May 7, there’s a new money Moon in Taurus. Taurus Moon is “the farmers’ Moon” – real life farmers use it as a timer – and it is a particularly fertile and potent Moon for planting new seeds. So a new Moon in your sign of Taurus starts the season off with a new you. You have a chance to see more money come in.

You must make an effort to be clear and clean in all your communications (particularly with siblings or sibling-like friends – those you argue with – and family.) May would be an ideal time to TALK about it. It will also be the most practical and pragmatic thing to do, as it will clear up that wound (as Wallace Stegner writes about, above) and do it the most expediently.

As I said, use this timing to your advantage: Allow the stars to help you in your quest.

Mid-May you start enjoying the month more – and man, am I glad to see that!

It gets even better…

Towards the end of the month the veils of fog and mystery will be lifted from your work and your purpose and life path made abundantly clear.
