Taurus Season: April 19 - May 20

(This was written a bit quickly and messy as I am tired and not all physically well at the moment.)

It seems like Taurus Season is revving up to be quite an exciting time for everyone. There are a lot of major shake-ups happening astrologically over the next month and a lot of those themes are captured there in the three sets of cards in the center. The major aspect is the Solar Plexus being anchored down by Control as Taurus Season will be a time of exercising will towards obtaining and maintaining things that fulfill your needs. This will extend out into the collective as well, prompting you to look at things from a broader perspective to see if, alongside you, others are getting what they need.

The aspect of Merkabah being held down by Patience is the key there with that. Quite literally having the patience to learn to communicate properly, to listen properly without judgment or anger, without thinking you already know it all and that you are the moral high ground when it comes to what humanity as a whole needs. With some of the astrological influences of Mars and Mercury playing a role this season, there is room for aggravation and tension to build up as people feel the need to speak and express more, projecting a lot rather than taking in, forgetting that conversations are a two-way street. Learning to navigate and balance that, especially on social media will be a big factor in all of that.

Prosperity being held down by Resourcefulness goes into Control and the ability to work through the will. It makes me think of a saying I keep in mind a lot, not sure where it came from — “Use what you have to get what you need so you can do what you want.” Being resourceful, taking note of what you already have in relation to what you need, rather than focusing on what you want purely out of lack can either set off a new sense of prosperity or it can, for some, show a lot of missing pieces when it comes to what you as an individual, a community, or humanity as a whole need. 

The inner guidance presented which gives the messages, “look at the bigger picture,” “balance spirituality and practicality,” and “the answers you need are coming,” all seem to come back to matters of Uranus in Taurus, Pluto (and it’s retrograde) in Capricorn, Jupiter’s transition from Aquarius to Pisces, and Mercury’s trip through Taurus. These are more for the individual, more for self-guidance, to serve as reminders as you move through the season if you want to move with the energies as they come. There are big indicators of these influences fueling or speeding up the already fast-paced evolution of humanity through small waves of amplified communication and understanding. Of course, based on the North and South Nodes we’ll have people eagerly trying to initiate something new, to progress, while others cling desperately to old ideas, old routines, and essentially work on denying evolution for the entirety of humanity. That would go back into tension and there does seem to be a potential for extremist thinking on both sides when consideration, compassion, and just listening are not part of the system.

As for the external guidance, the messages there are a bit more general, as expected with simple phrases like, “set healthy boundaries,” “turn knowledge into wisdom,” and “magic moves through you.” When working externally, when actually engaging in communication or active progression of the collective you have to have your own limits to avoid burnout or literal mental breakdowns. You have to be able to apply your experience to the overall interpretation, using it to understand and connect with others, even if it’s just bits and pieces, rather than assuming your experience is the only one, or the only right one. Think of it as using your experience as a tool of connection rather than a weapon of projection that helps you hide your own faults, insecurity, and guilt. 

The aspect of “magic moves through you,” is really interesting to me because I was seeing it as connecting back full to Saturn which will be having a fair bit of influence throughout Taurus Season. Specifically, I was feeling a lot of that aggravation and tension that I felt at the beginning of 2020 with Saturn where it literally felt like Saturn was so incredibly pissed off with humanity. It feels like this message comes through on claws ripping through layers of narcissism and self-righteousness in order to remind people that they are vessels of higher will, they are meant to initiate humanity’s higher aspects of evolution, but the magic in question can not travel through vessels that are polluted or “off-center” in some way. A clear mind, clear heart, clear soul is what is needed, I suppose. Understanding of the self, a clear view of the self is required to have a clear view of other individuals, and a clear view of other individuals is what allows you to have a clear view of humanity as a whole. You can not judge, diagnose, punish, or heal humanity unless you’ve looked at yourself first and most people haven’t done that yet. 

There is a lot of very strong stimulation to Taurus itself this season with the Sun, Uranus, Venus, and Mercury all making their way through it, creating conjunctions within it and Trines and Squares to Pluto and Saturn. There is a lot of stimulation behind thinking, planning, saying, and doing what you need to do in order to make yourself comfortable, in order to assess what it is that you need to be comfortable. Of course, with Uranus there connecting to Saturn in Aquarius, there is also an incredible pull towards looking for the same with others and for others. Basically, it can be very easy this season to be selfish, but there is a call to use your selfishness to benefit the collective in the long run. Use your self-focus to get on track to understanding humanity more by way of understanding yourself and your needs. 

There are pretty major influences swirling about and I think it’s pretty exciting to see what comes about, especially with such an emphasis being put on the astrology of Taurus Season. Since I’m not on my game with writing at the minute, not feeling the best, as usual, I highly suggest checking out this video below. He goes through all the major points of astrology through Taurus seasons and lays things out pretty well.
