Taurus Weekly Horoscope

This week could feel rather like a dreamscape, Taurus, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself moving along at a rather unusual and uncertain pace, especially during the first few days when the planets won’t be making any notable angles to one another. The 17th arrives with Half Moon in Aries and your subconscious sector. This is a time to check in on your mental health and make sure you haven’t been pushing yourself too hard along in a time of uncertainty. Don’t feel guilty if you want to just be by yourself and focus on you; it’s your time, not anyone else’s. This is also a terrific cycle to get creative and let the Muse come out to play, so if you have any ideas percolating on the backburner feel free to bring them into the heat.

You’re going to notice a change in the wind the very next day. Your nest might get a little shaken up this Friday when messenger Mercury turns retrograde in Leo and your 4th House of Home and Family; for the next three weeks it wouldn’t be one bit surprising if you’d rather putter around the house, seeing to little repairs and spending more time on the couch rather than out on the town. Since retrogrades are all about the ‘re’ part: return, revisit, review, redo, reorganize, etc, etc, etc, how about looking for ways around the house to make use of what you already have? Clearing out some stuff you think of as only clutter could unearth a few treasures other people will be willing to pay good money for, so start looking; just make sure you don’t throw something precious out in an extreme fit of Marie Kondo-ing. That being said, you’ll want to be careful about getting into any dust-ups with the people living under the same roof as you; with Mercury throwing a wrench in the works it will be only too easy for wires to get crossed as you try to end up on the same page, albeit unsuccessfully.

Also on the 18th, Mercury will form a supportive sextile to your ruler, alluring Venus, in Gemini and your 2nd House of Earned Income and Material Wealth, which could bring some rather pleasant and even luxurious moments your way. Venus is encouraging you to increase your net worth and attract more bounty into your life, while Mercury in Leo wants you to surround yourself with comfort and support, so there could be something really lovely on offer at this time. If you come across any interesting opportunities, however, be sure to suss them out properly before signing up for anything, because Mercury retrograde can always cause trouble.
