Taurus Weekly Horoscope

This could be a rather exciting week for you, Taurus, one where you feel energized and rejuvenated, with plenty of promising things to pursue. Right on the 18th, red hot Mars zooms into your sign for the first time in two years, kicking off six weeks of major manifestation and motivation, which is sure to see you rocket up life’s ladder at least one wrung or two. If you’ve been spinning your wheels under the current climate, waiting for a green light from the Universe, just know that this is your cosmic sign to go for “it”, whatever that might mean to you. During this time the Universe is going to start sending more opportunities for excitement and pleasure your way–both romantic and platonic–so keep an eye out because you certainly won’t want to miss them when they start showing up on your front door. Mars will be boosting your along until the end June, so you’ve got an open road ahead of you until then; just remember that Mars can also exhaust you a bit more than usual while it is lighting a fire under your butt, so be sure to take time to rest and relax along the way or you might burn out more all the more quickly.

There is another important shift on the 18th as your ruler, loving Venus, moves on from Gemini and your 2nd House and slips into emotive Cancer and your expressive 3rd House of Local Community and Communications, where she’ll be operating for the next several weeks. During this heart-warming transit, you can express yourself without reservation, and in turn people will be more willing to open up after the mercurial last few months. This is great for singles looking to mingle, while couples can look forward to enjoying themselves more out on the town or with a few friends around; likewise, you should be more social and do a bit more exploring in your area, because you could discover some exciting new spots that wind up becoming favorite haunts down the line. Since Venus loves to sprinkle romance wherever she can, you may discover some exciting passionate opportunities in your area, or someone you’ve always thought of as a friend could suddenly appear in quite a different light!

There is one more major shift yet to come on the 20th when the mighty Sun blasts out of your sign and your 1st House of Self-Expression after a four-week tour and jumps into Gemini and your 2nd House of Earned Income and Material Possessions. This transit is like a cosmic calling card from the Universe to get your financial ducks in a row and start prepping for new opportunities to come your way; whether you’re aiming for a pay raise or an entirely new job, this cycle is the time to make it happen. You can also enjoy spending your money during this time, and can make some very satisfying purchases if you spend your money right, though try to give yourself a wise budget and stick to what you know is worth your money, or you could wind up with a bit of buyer’s remorse after treating yourself one too many times. Moderation is key!
