Read your horoscope for Mars in Taurus
Slow and steady wins the race
As Mars — the planet of vitality, motivation, and aggression — plods through Taurus from June 8th to July 20th, actions slow down to a more leisurely pace. The grounded bull doesn’t rush into motion but first digs in its hooves and pauses to feel out its needs and desires. This unhurried style is perfect for relishing earthly pleasures such as cooking, gardening, or pet-snuggling. And this placement’s patience is a blessing for making diligent and consistent progress on long or tedious projects.
But traditionally, the warrior planet is in detriment in measured Taurus. When stubbornness rears its head, this fixed earth sign can become utterly immovable. Staying receptive to alternative routes, methods, or possibilities rather than sticking with the familiar is essential for avoiding ruts — or unexpected blowups. In this bovine sign, Mars teaches us that we can be prepared to act quickly when the moment is right while remaining attuned to the senses and to the steady tempo of the natural world.
