2019: Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
Taurus (All):
You’re in a wonderful period for self-discovery in 2019, dear Taurus. Uranus moves into your sign more consistently from March forward (last year you had a sneak peek of this energy), and Jupiter spends much of the year boosting your intimate world. The potential for growth and improvement is tremendous.
Jupiter in your solar eighth house until December is powerful for your intimate life. This is a period that’s potentially rich for enjoying private time, better self-understanding, or for developing a close relationship. It’s also a powerful influence for gaining others’ support, which can take the form of loans or moral support. Love is rich and deep in 2019.
But while you’re developing a rich, profound connection with a person or a project, you’re exploring your independence with Uranus now in your sign for seven years! You’re naturally a peace-loving sign, but with Uranus in Taurus, freedom may be more important to you than keeping the peace these days, and this is a radical change on some levels. People around you may feel as if they’re dealing with a brand new person at times in 2019 and beyond.
Uranus awakens your consciousness to areas of your life in which you’ve felt restricted. There may be unexpected events that free you from confining situations or past conditioning patterns. You are more inspired now, and your personality bubbles with bursts of enthusiasm. There can be a significant break from the past that propels your life forward. It’s important to watch for rebellious behavior — to aim to act rather than react. Uranus transits can be times when there is a significant new influence, person, or path in your life that rather dramatically deviates from your version of normal. Those born from April 20-27 are most affected by this transit in 2019, while this energy is stirring for the rest of the sign.
Your mental outlook, belief systems, studies, and personal interests continue to be in strong focus this year. In 2019, you’re challenged to get your daily affairs into order in addition to extra attention to your more lofty endeavors. There are details to handle! Skills development may seem a little tedious with all of your larger interests in play, but it can be very useful and rewarding, and perhaps quite necessary.
Use the power of Mars in your sign from mid-February through to the last week of March for moving personal plans and interests forward. Love and creativity are in especially good form late August through to the end of September. Feelings can come into your life very suddenly now — this can be like a starburst on an emotional level. Still, there are complications in love this year – things need sorting. All year, but especially after your birthday month, watch for overreaching. Chances are moderating behavior will help simplify your life.
Long-term friendships may be forged this year, particularly through networks, personal interests, studies, the internet, and long distances. There may perhaps be some conflicts between friends and lovers or blurred boundaries in a particular relationship. You have Saturn and Pluto encouraging you to simplify and improve your life this year, and Neptune inspiring you, all the while with Uranus exciting you and demanding changes. Saturn’s support of your sign helps keep you grounded and stable, even with all of the changes and new desires brewing now, which is comforting for you as a Taurus.
Key Events in 2019 for Taurus:
Outer Planet Transits:
Jupiter square Neptune from January to September. We are looking for a new source of inspiration, but we have the tendency to latch onto impractical dreams or plans to remedy the situation. For you, Taurus, uncertainties in your social life can seem to interfere with your intimate life or a close relationship. Or, you may be uncertain about how to define a relationship, or you could be dealing with unclear boundaries. It’s important to avoid shooting for an unrealizable goal now if it prevents you from enjoying what you already have.
Helping you out with this, however, is:
Saturn sextile Neptune from January to November. This reinforcing aspect helps ground you. It can be a fabulous help, even if it’s a rather subtle influence. This aspect reminds you to balance spiritual and material pursuits; study with faith; practical thinking with imagination. This can be a time of the formation of long-term friendships through studies, travels, or personal interests.
Also this year:
Saturn conjunct South Node (April to September) and Pluto conjunct South Node (April). Difficulties are possible related to hanging on to old ways of communicating or learning that may be preventing you from growing, improving, and thriving. You may be sticking with the familiar only for fear of change, and this is a tendency you should watch.
Uranus trine Jupiter in December. This happens near the end of the year in Earth signs. In your solar chart, we find Earth signs in your self-expression sectors and this boost comes to the ways you express your personality, assert your individuality, and share yourself with others. It’s about innovation, progress, new technology, methods, or approaches, and it’s a positive development! You may be finding yourself through travel or connections to different cultures and perspectives. Your attitude towards living your life is much more exuberant, and you tend to see more opportunities as a result. There can be a strong sense of release and freedom from previously limiting, rigid, or stifling conditions.
Significant minor transits:
Venus conjunct Jupiter — twice! On January 22 and November 24th…and this happens in your intimacy sector both times, making this a special time for connecting with a person or passion project.
Mars conjunct Uranus in late Aries on February 12-13. This occurs shortly before Uranus leaves your privacy sector for good, making it a powerful period for putting something behind you so that you can begin anew.
Sun conjunct Uranus in early Taurus on April 22 and Venus conjunct Uranus in Taurus on May 18. Now that Uranus is consistently in your sign, these transits can get the ball rolling with change and progress and new ways of expressing yourself. You’re no longer accepting of limiting or confining circumstances in your life.
Sun conjunct Jupiter in Capricorn on December 25-27th. An opportunity period for learning, sharing, and exploring. Publishing or promotion may be part of the picture now.
New and Full Moons/Eclipses:
Please note that these key dates are synopses — quick summaries of astro events — that are covered more in-depth in the monthly horoscopes and daily horoscopes.

2019: Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, Outlook, & General Trends
The horoscope on this page, Taurus Yearly, shows the trends and predictions for the year in more detail. Because outer planet transits are lengthy, there are variations in the timing of outer planet transits for each of the three decans of Taurus, and these are shown below the main, general forecast.
There are some lovely trends with you in 2019, dear Taurus. Every year, we see challenges and opportunities in different areas. It’s my hope that understanding these areas of potential disruption and ease that you can make the most of these trends by seeking out the opportunities and managing the challenges.
Taurus people revel in the practical aspects of life and draw spiritual truths from this. Comfort and satisfaction are great themes in your life. Mental and emotional security are primary goals.
The following chart shows the outer planets and other points in relation to your sign, revealing whether they are harmonizing with or challenging Taurus:
Taurus 2019
Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun | Jul | Aug | Sep | Oct | Nov | Dec | |
Jupiter | ||||||||||||

Grey is neutral (no direct relationship, but can be picky, nagging),
Pink is challenging (the planet is in direct, challenging relationship to your sign),
and Green is easy and supportive (the planet or point is in direct, harmonious relationship with your sign).
As you can see, there is very little in the way of outer planet challenges this year for Taurus. In fact, there are no direct challenges from the outer planets to the sign of Taurus in 2019. Mind you, Uranus is in Taurus from March forward, and while it can be a stimulating influence, it can keep you on your toes and stir up the need for change.

Overview: Harmony and Challenge of Outer Planets:
You have incredible support from Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto again this year, Taurus. These long-term influences are on your side, and Tauruses are more imaginative and spiritual than usual, but also practical and determined, under these influences.
Taurus is a sign that is typically more interested in practical realities than intensive self-analysis, but these planetary influences suggest a greater interest in understanding the spiritual forces active in your life.
Chiron forms an awkward angle to your sign from March forward. This can be a nagging background influence — from time to time, you feel the need to make adjustments, particularly in your private life. Otherwise, things seem quite clear.
You’re rarely comfortable making radical changes in your life, but now that Uranus is in your sign more consistently from March forward, you’re inclined to find it more important to rock the boat than keep the peace if you feel caged in, oppressed, or confined in certain areas of your life.
Pluto’s support of your sign highlights your strong willpower and your ability to make long-term plans, patiently working towards your goals. Pluto is assisting you in opening your mind to new ideas and broadening your horizons. This is not always an easy task, but travel and higher education can be stronger and growing drives.
Tauruses naturally have an excellent ability to stick with things and follow through. This trait is most defined in years when Saturn supports you, as it does this year and last. However, with Uranus moving into your sign, particularly those born early in the sign of Taurus will be doing some experimentation.
You have the patience to nurture something into being, and this can relate to a project, business, garden, or relationship. This trait is highlighted with Neptune, Saturn, and Pluto in your corner in 2019.
This is a powerful year for improving your intimate life or shared finances. Go big in these areas, but know your limits!
The modern ruler of your career sector, Uranus, moves into your sign this year, and changes are very much on the horizon regarding career, reputation, and responsibilities. Consider new beginnings. This may, for some of you, point to a new field or job, but for many, it can be a time for reinventing yourself in your career.
**The following horoscopes reveal the outer planet, long-term trends for each decan. While Jupiter transits last just over a year, the remaining outer planet transits last several years (an average of 2-1/2 years for Saturn, 7 years for Uranus, and so forth). This is why you can see some of the same trends continuing from previous years.

2019: Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
Until December 2nd, Jupiter continues to move through your solar eighth house. During this cycle, you may see significant benefits in any of the areas ruled by the eighth house - joint finances, shared resources, loans, taxes, sexuality, intimacy, healing, personal transformation, research, investigation, and psychological matters. This is a time of increased psychological understanding, intimacy, and perhaps the accumulation of wealth if you manage your resources well. This is an excellent time to work on financial planning and strategy. You are more capable of helping friends and loved ones who are dealing with a crisis - you can be leaned upon. At the same time, others tend to support you more readily. You can benefit greatly from employing strategy in your life in general. This is a fabulous time for seeing or discovering the value of patience and planning. Your ability to understand and accept anything that is deep in meaning or significant is enhanced now, and you instinctively realize that the path to healing is to face your fears. Any type of in-depth study or research is likely to go well. In some cases, a significant tax refund, inheritance, inheritance, or other such benefits might arrive during this transit. Financial gains may come through a partnership, or there may be an increase in a spouse's income. Gifts, inheritance, loans, and other forms of financial support are possible now. Sensual or intimate opportunities are likely to abound, or your focus on one partner becomes more expansive, warm, and intimate. This could be a time of purging yourself of literal or psychic "junk," as there is a sense that de-cluttering your life will be beneficial to your emotional well-being. Benefits can come through jointly held resources, loans, or taxes. These positive circumstances won't necessarily fall into your lap and are unlikely to happen all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life. However, this is an excellent period for shining light in the darker places of your life and psyche, greater self-understanding, and improved intimacy with a partner and/or with yourself.
The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar eighth house from January 1-April 10, and from August 11-December 2.
From December 2nd forward, Jupiter, the planet of growth and expansion, is moving through your solar ninth house. During this cycle, you may have opportunities to travel (if appropriate), study, go abroad, expand your horizons, and connect with people of diverse and interesting backgrounds. You are more intellectually curious now, and academic pursuits can both benefit you and run exceptionally smoothly during this cycle. Business dealings, particularly long-distance ones and those involving publicity and promotion, are likely to be profitable now. Legal matters might also work in your favor, or long-standing legal problems might now be ironed out. Some of you will be seeking legal advice and find it especially helpful now. A more faithful attitude towards life, in general, is likely now—you tend to feel that everything will work out in the end. Authors might get published now, receive good reviews, or they could significantly expand their audience. Travel is possible now (if advisable), whether it's business or personal. Educational opportunities expand your horizons. Teaching and learning are favored. Writing and studying flow more naturally. This is also an excellent period for positive dealings with in-laws! Your mind is more expansive and tolerant, and you are under less stress than usual. You are less inclined to sweat the small stuff. These positive circumstances won't necessarily fall into your lap and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life. Watch for a tendency towards a "holier than thou" attitude. New learning experiences, as well as "life" experiences (adventures, contacts with others of a vastly different culture than yours, and so forth), are likely to emerge. You might choose to learn a new language or take on other studies. This is an exceptionally strong placement for Jupiter. You're considerably more adventurous and outgoing now.
Jupiter transits trine your Sun. This is a feel-good transit that offers you opportunities to rise above petty concerns and to achieve a more balanced approach to your life. Relationships with others tend to be easygoing, friendly, and positive. It's natural for you to cooperate with others, and others find it easy to cooperate with you! This is a time when you genuinely enjoy life, appreciating the good things, and rarely harping on the more inconvenient or annoying elements of life.
Saturn transits your solar ninth house until 2020. It’s typically felt most strongly in the first year of its influence – for you, that was last year!
This period in your life is generally dedicated to self-improvement. You are developing your ideals and your commitments. Beliefs or spiritual goals that you may have taken for granted or worked with for many years seem superficial or not particularly useful to you now. You come face to face with your own self-defeating attitudes during this period of time, and important work can be done on coming to a more realistic state.
The need for solid, practical training can become very apparent now, particularly as Saturn rules your career sector. This can also be a period of teaching others what you have learned from your work, career, or business.
Higher learning and travel might be areas of constriction or you might find that you’re attracted to especially practical studies and that you travel for business more than for pleasure. You are taking a closer look at and perhaps re-assessing your attitude and confidence. The blind faith or optimism that may have carried you to date comes up for inspection. Are your belief systems sound? What do you stand for? What kind of future are you working towards, and why? These are some of the questions this transit stimulates. The spirit that drives you and motivates you to move out and beyond the everyday grind comes up for inspection. By the end of the transit, you will have a better understanding of what it is that offers you hope and optimism as well as that which fuels your drive. You will be one step closer to knowing where you are headed, and you will have re-built faith in yourself. Ideally, you adopt a more mature attitude towards adventure and facing the unknown. You let go of self-defeating attitudes that have been holding you back, you recognize exactly where you have been overdoing your expectations, and you find new ways to nurture faith, hope, and vision. This is truly a period of self-discovery.
Uranus continues to transit your solar twelfth house until March 6th.
At this time, Uranus helps release you from unconscious habit patterns, perhaps stirring up your private life (your private life becomes more "colorful" now), and interjecting some unusual coincidences into your life. This whole process acts to slowly but surely detach you from unsupportive elements of your life--those things that have been preventing you from growing and finding yourself. This is all in preparation for Uranus' transit of your sign and then solar first house that is set to incite your desires for independence, freedom, and excitement.
The more acute elements of this transit have already been experienced before 2019 for your decan of Taurus.
Uranus transits your solar first house after March 6th (or next year if you’re born later in the decan). Uranus is the Awakener, and often "awakens" your consciousness to areas of your life that it touches in disruptive, exciting, or surprising ways. This is about your personality, image, body awareness, and manner. As such, there may be unexpected events that free you from confining situations or past conditioning patterns. You are more inspired this year, and your personality fairly bubbles with bursts of enthusiasm. Impulsiveness is something to watch out for, however. Your need for freedom can be so strong that you leave cherished things (or people!) behind. Alienating those close to you may occur now if you're not careful. At the very least, people around you are surprised by your more rebellious and risk-taking nature. While you shouldn't resist change now, you should avoid entirely impulsive behavior. With Uranus, remember to act rather than react. While rebellion is sometimes necessary, eventually you'll want to feel truly free to be yourself. Changes with the image you project to others, and perhaps your personal style and appearance, take place during this period. For some, they can be radical. You might go through a series of personal makeovers. You are breaking free from the expectations of others now, not only or even with your style or look, but also with your personality. Your behavior tends to be more spontaneous or obviously independent. Freedom of personal expression is immensely important to you now, and if you turn a few heads or raise some eyebrows in the pursuit thereof, you don't particularly worry about it! This can be an especially eventful period of your life when you make big changes, especially to areas of your life that have become too routine or that are lifeless and no longer truly represent you.
Neptune continues its lengthy transit through your solar eleventh house this year.
Neptune here can cast some "fog" over--and add some color and imagination to--your social life. You could face the need to draw some boundaries with friends and the demands of others. It's possible that your loyalty to certain groups or friends may have been misplaced, for example. You might experience a subtle yearning to belong with a friend or a group who/that shares your own ideals. This can lead you to attach yourself to unusual, more spiritual, or downright wacky friends...colorful ones, at the very least!
The acute elements of this influence are behind you.Pluto continues its lengthy transit of your solar ninth house this year. This extremely long-term transit brings gradual but deep changes to your belief system. It can have the effect of gradually transforming your belief system and general outlook on life. Some of the beliefs that have carried you to date may seem outdated or superficial, and events and circumstances in your life prompt you to adopt new beliefs and visions or to alter those you've had in the past. Expectations transform again this year. Intensity and passion are craved now, and mediocre will no longer do. You may meet people, go places, or learn new things that change your way of thinking during this interesting transit.
All year, the North Node of the Moon is transiting your solar third house, and this suggests that some of the greatest joys - and challenges - come through learning, communications, and connecting. You need to learn to listen to others so that you discover the value of true communication and exchange and to see both sides of a situation. Learning to slow down, to be sensitive to social graces and networks, and to sensitize yourself to others' needs and communications, will release you from nervous tension and help you achieve more happiness and inner balance.

You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life. This can be an excellent time for eye-opening psychological discoveries that help you to liberate yourself from difficulties of the past or from attitudes that have been holding you back from moving forward.
The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar eighth house, from January 1-April 10, and from August 11th forward.
Saturn transits your solar ninth house (until 2020). It’s typically felt most strongly in the first year of its influence – for your decan, that’s this year! This transit is relatively new to most of you, making its themes a little more intense in 2019, after which you take it increasingly in stride as you get more comfortable with this energy.
This period in your life is generally dedicated to self-improvement. You are developing your ideals and your commitments. Beliefs or spiritual goals that you may have taken for granted or worked with for many years seem superficial or not particularly useful to you now.

This is truly a period of self-discovery.
Saturn trines your Sun this year, and this helps you to better focus on your goals. This transit is a stabilizing one–others know they can rely on you, and you on them! Your vision is all the more realistic now, and pleasingly so. You work steadily and determinedly towards your goals. Authority figures and elders tend to look favorably upon you. This aspect goes a long way toward steadying and balancing your life. This is a wonderful time for self-discipline.
Uranus continues its lengthy transit of your solar twelfth house.
At this time, Uranus helps release you from unconscious habit patterns, perhaps stirring up your private life (your private life becomes more "colorful" now), and interjecting some unusual coincidences into your life.

This is all in preparation for Uranus' transit of your sign and then solar first house that is set to incite your desires for independence, freedom, and excitement.
While Uranus has moved on to the sign of Taurus which is related to your solar first house, Uranus won’t reach the degrees of your decan until at least 2021.
Neptune begins or continues its lengthy transit through your solar eleventh house for most of you.
Neptune here can cast some "fog" over--and add some color and imagination to--your social life. You could face the need to draw some boundaries with friends and the demands of others. It's possible that your loyalty to certain groups or friends may have been misplaced, for example.

This can lead you to attach yourself to unusual, more spiritual, or downright wacky friends...colorful ones, at the very least!
Those born with 14-19 degrees Taurus are feeling this transit more intensely.
Pluto continues or begins its lengthy transit of your solar ninth house this year.
This extremely long-term transit brings gradual but deep changes to your belief system. It can have the effect of gradually transforming your belief system and general outlook on life. Some of the beliefs that have carried you to date may seem outdated or superficial, and events and circumstances in your life prompt you to adopt new beliefs and visions or to alter those you've had in the past.

Taurus (Born May 11 to 21) – 20 to 30 degrees Taurus (3rd DECAN):
2019: Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
From February 15-June 6 and then from October 12th forward, Jupiter, the planet of growth and expansion, is moving through your solar eighth house. During this cycle, you may see benefits in any of the areas ruled by the eighth house - joint finances, shared resources, loans, taxes, sexuality, intimacy, healing, personal transformation, research, investigation, and psychological matters. This is a time of increased psychological understanding, intimacy, and perhaps the accumulation of wealth if you manage your resources well. This is an excellent time to work on financial planning and strategy. You are more capable of helping friends and loved ones who are dealing with a crisis - you can be leaned upon. Your ability to understand and accept anything that is deep in meaning or significant is enhanced now, and you instinctively realize that the path to healing is to face your fears. Others tend to be more supportive of you as well. Any type of in-depth study or research is likely to go well. In some cases, a significant tax refund, inheritance, inheritance, or other such benefits might arrive during this transit. Financial gains may come through a partnership or there may be an increase in a spouse's income. Sensual or intimate opportunities are likely to abound, or your focus on one partner becomes more expansive, warm, and intimate. This could be a time of purging yourself of literal or psychic "junk", as there is a sense that de-cluttering your life will be beneficial to your emotional well-being. Benefits can come through jointly held resources, loans, or taxes. These positive circumstances won't necessarily fall into your lap and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life. This can be an excellent time for eye-opening psychological discoveries that help you to liberate yourself from difficulties of the past or from attitudes that have been holding you back from moving forward.
The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar eighth house, from February 15-April 11, and from October 12-forward.
Saturn transits your solar eighth house this year until December. This transit will run until at least the end of 2019 for your decan.Saturn asks us to follow at least some of the rules, be responsible, and pick up our socks wherever he's found in the chart. Saturn spends approximately 2-1/2 years in a sign. In your solar eighth house now, this is a period when getting what you want from others can be challenging, as you ultimately are learning to rely on yourself. You are likely to be more sensitive to what appear to be outer world pressures that force you to examine some of your deepest desires and attachments. These include your sexual relationships, your finances (especially with regards to debts and shared finances/support), and your need for control. You may face some difficulties satisfying your libido and/or encounter problems with intimacy. These pressures are "designed" to make you more aware of your desire nature, and what exactly it is you truly want.
Dissatisfaction and frustrations getting what you want, especially concerning relationships with others and your resources, often characterize the first part of the transit. You may discover that previous methods of controlling your environment and the people in your life are just not as effective anymore. You may not even be aware exactly how you have been employing power and control before this transit.
Saturn's presence in this sector of your chart also urges you to organize your finances. On a psychological level, you face some of your fears that are compulsive—those concerns that lead you to believe you need certain things to survive. Taxes might be an issue during this period. Facing the realities of debt may be another. Some of you may be supporting a partner, or a partner could be earning a little less. Towards the end of this transit, you will have eliminated some deep-seated habits and attachments that have been keeping you back from feeling emotionally free. You emerge healthier and stronger. When we give in to compulsive behaviors, we give up self-control, and guilt undermines our lives. We are not ourselves. By attempting to control others, we give away our own power over ourselves.
Tests can come to your financial and intimate worlds during this cycle. You may be dealing with fears of surrendering yourself, emotionally or financially, to others. Support from others may not be as forthcoming as it has been in the past. For example, a partner's income may decrease, or another form of financial support may no longer be available during this period. This requires you to assume more independence regarding making a living. For some, a line of study is coming to an end, and there is a need to take the next step.
Emotionally, there can be a feeling that others are not quite as supportive. There can be delays or difficulties in general when it comes to getting what you want or need from others. Intimacy may seem to dry up a tad before it gets better. However, it's a strong time for handling financial matters, especially debts and taxes, logically and realistically. You'll find that you waste considerably less energy by facing up to realities rather than living your life procrastinating and feeling vaguely guilty all of the time. It's an excellent time for sorting through your finances and dealing with the power dynamics in a partnership more equitably.
By the end of this transit, you are likely to feel considerably healthier on an emotional level. Ideally, you will have nixed some of your addictions, and mastered your superstitions. You will feel more powerful because you have given up attempting to control things you cannot or should not control, and you will have gained a feeling of self-mastery instead.
The acute elements of this transit have already passed for your Taurus group – you are finishing and tidying things up in these areas of your life. This is a period for resolving these issues.
Note: Saturn is in Capricorn which relates to your solar ninth house. However, since you were born later in the sign of Taurus and because Saturn moves relatively slowly through the zodiac, it will only reach your degree at the end of the year or beyond.
Uranus continues its lengthy transit of your solar twelfth house. At this time, Uranus helps release you from unconscious habit patterns, perhaps stirring up your private life (your private life becomes more "colorful" now), and interjecting some unusual coincidences into your life. This whole process acts to slowly but surely detach you from unsupportive elements of your life--those things that have been preventing you from growing and finding yourself. This is all in preparation for Uranus' transit of your sign and then solar first house that is set to incite your desires for independence, freedom, and excitement.
Neptune continues its lengthy transit through your solar tenth house this year, as it has been doing for a number of years.
Neptune through your career and reputation sector may put a cloud over your goals and mystery surrounding your reputation. Your worldly goals may be watered down or they're evolving during this cycle, as you focus more on personal affairs. Others may not be seeing you for who you are, but rather what they'd like you to be. Try not to encourage this behavior, as tempting as it might be to do so.
Some of you might be leaning towards a more spiritual, creative, or artistic career. Neptune clouding your vision of where it is you are headed in life can cause some inner restlessness and confusion. A master plan may be elusive during this period of your life. Unusual circumstances, coincidences, or some level of secrecy and mystery surround your career this year. Neptune is encouraging you to get in touch with your more spiritual side, but the circumstances that propel you in that direction may be confusing at first.
Note: Neptune continues to transit Pisces, but it travels through the 14 to 19-degree range. Neptune will not reach the beginning of your decan and your solar eleventh house until 2020 or later.
Pluto begins its lengthy transit of your solar ninth house this year for those born approximately May 11 to 14 or from 20 to 23 degrees Taurus
This extremely long-term transit brings gradual but deep changes to your belief system. It can have the effect of gradually transforming your belief system and general outlook on life. Some of the beliefs that have carried you to date may seem outdated or superficial, and events and circumstances in your life prompt you to adopt new beliefs and visions or to alter those you've had in the past. Expectations transform again this year. Intensity and passion are craved now, and mediocre will no longer do. You may meet people, go places, or learn new things that change your way of thinking during this interesting transit.
Pluto continues its lengthy transit through your solar eighth house this year for those born May 15th forward and at 24-30 degrees Taurus. This very long-term transit has the effect of gradually deepening your interest in the hidden, mysterious, or taboo side of life, as well as your own deeper nature, primal urges, and desire for control. Attitudes towards dependencies on others, finances, and intimacy transform. Events occurring now have the effect of completely altering your perspective on these things. You’ve been going through this process for many years now.
Your ruler, Venus, is direct all year, suggesting steady progress and fewer obstacles than you experienced last year.
This year, the North Node of the Moon is transiting your solar third house, and this suggests that some of the greatest joys - and challenges - come through learning, communications, and connecting. You need to learn to listen to others so that you discover the value of true communication and exchange and to see both sides of a situation. Learning to slow down, to be sensitive to social graces and networks, and to sensitize yourself to others' needs and communications, will release you from nervous tension and help you achieve more happiness and inner balance.
*Please note: starting and ending dates are not fixed for any sign and they can vary slightly depending on the year you were born. If you are born near one of these dates and are unsure of your Sun sign, see What’s My Sun Sign?.
