Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)
For the week of : March 8 14
Good news! This week Mars, the planet that regulates energy flow, will finally leaves his long retrograde stalemate, opening the door for a resolution to a home, property or financial matter. However, take note: Mars is under the influence of creative and occasionally excessive, unrealistic Leo until June. Stay in touch with your natural Taurus logic and common sense and continue to trust your astute, Earth‑bound intuition.
In the Taurus solar chart, Mars is in charge of your spiritual and philosophical inclinations. Therefore, when a new mentor or a train of innovative ideas or philosophical leanings begins to move into your life, follow that thought or listen to another’s wise insights. You could experience and amazing, emotionally liberating personal breakthrough.
Planet Alert: On Tuesday, your ruler Venus is at odds with unforgiving Saturn. If you’re suddenly drawn into a power struggle or argument over certain plans, a difference of opinion over joint finances or the terms of an arrangement, remember that others may have a valid point, and it’s only fair to let them air their views. But if the discussion becomes too heated, err on the side of diplomacy and talk about whatever “it” is tomorrow. That way, you won’t burn any bridges you may want to cross again.
Romance & Relationships: When your astrologer says “tomorrow”, she means Thursday and Saturday. A pragmatic Venus/Pluto aspect now governs emotions, and your common sense will help you understand another’s point of view. You could save a friendship, a business deal and, since Pluto rules your relationships and heart, a love affair.
”When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time.” St. Frances de Sales
