Read your horoscope for Venus in Taurus
Venus brings sensual pleasures
On May 28th, Venus enters Taurus. Ample and assured, Venus in Taurus helps us to center and appreciate the interconnectedness of the natural world. The organic rhythms of nature are healing, plain and simple. Venus in Taurus teaches us this through all it has dominion over.
Sensuality is how life sustains itself. Shame does not exist in a forest, jungle, or desert. Pleasure promotes growth. The beauty of a rose entices us all, big and small.
As Venus in Taurus beckons us towards all that delights, it encourages us to do so steadily, slowly, and sustainably. By nurturing what holds us, we become aware that we are a part of a whole. Bearing witness to beauty’s animating force in our lives affirms our beauty too. Lingering long enough to bear witness to the beauty in our lives is a practice to put front and center now.
A hunger for radical love
Venus’ first major moment in Taurus is with Uranus, the planet of disruption, on June 11th. This merger stimulates non-conforming desires and a rebellious non-conformity in the collective.
We suddenly see beauty where we never noticed it before. Also, we’d all benefit by breaking up with our people-pleasing patterns.
This radical love proliferates on June 16th, when Venus crosses the North Node of the Moon. The North Node, described by the ancients as the head of a dragon, amplifies Venus’ longing into insatiable hunger. With this kind of astrology, we can often feel as though we’ll never get enough of what we crave.
Question any yearning that pulls you out of your center, forever chasing promises of fulfillment. Is it worth it if it leaves you feeling empty, depleted, or unsatisfied?
On June 18th, Venus is embroiled in two very different energies on the same day. First, it’s a square with Saturn, the planet of boundaries and discipline. A tug of war ensues between what we’d like to indulge, and what we need to limit in our lives. What abundant hedges need pruning to bear long term fruit?
Next, Venus slips from Saturn’s stern gaze into the fogs of Neptune. This exchange expands our hearts and pollinates our imagination. We wander in an alluring daydream that carries us far from duties and cares.
On June 21st, Pluto, cloaked in mystery, comes prowling onto the floor. As Venus makes a trine to Pluto, deep, transformative passions awaken. Tango with this enchanting stranger.
