Read your horoscope for the Sun in Taurus
Welcome to Taurus Season
Taurus season has officially arrived. From April 20th through May 21st, the Sun in this sensual earth sign pulls us into the pleasure of our senses. Think: Skin warmed by the sun. The touch of a soft shirt. A pitcher of cold water at the table. But beyond the physical, Taurus also reminds us that any goal needs a stable foundation from which to build on. Above all, this season brings an opportunity to anchor our fresh ideas into solid ground.
Remember: There’s No Rush
If you have the desire to change into comfy clothes and turn in early, honor it. Don’t just smell the roses — feel the soft give of their petals between your fingers. Pay attention to the trees. Sink your feet into the dirt. Of course, too much of anything can be destabilizing, and Taurus’ growth edge involves interrupting comfort when it curdles into complacency. So by all means, settle into your couch. Just don’t cut your connection to the world that’s buzzing outside your door.
The Season’s Full Moon: The Final Eclipse in Scorpio
Because the Sun is traveling so close to the North Node this Taurus season, the Full Moon in Scorpio will be an eclipse.
This eclipse will serve as the final chapter in a story you’ve been living for over a year now, and the end of an 18-month-long lesson in release. This series of Taurus and Scorpio eclipses began in late 2021 and has required an unflinching and thorough sloughing off of outgrown narratives, relationship patterns, and outdated beliefs that no longer resonate with you. While it hasn’t always been comfortable, shedding skin is what creates vital room to grow.
There’s nothing you need to “do” during this final eclipse in Scorpio, as eclipses unfold on their own time. Instead, focus on tending to your physical needs with extra care, keeping your schedule as open and flexible as possible, and resting amply.
The New Moon in Taurus
A couple of weeks later, on May 19th, the New Moon in Taurus invites us to plant the seedlings of new beginnings. Though there will be one more Taurus eclipse in October, this is the first New Moon in Taurus that hasn’t been an eclipse in two years. The Moon is exalted in this sign, so this lunation offers a potent opportunity for intentional dreaming, methodical growth, and system-supporting goals. What is set into motion under this New Moon will take root. Sow with purpose.
