Taurus (All):
Note: The summary of the year resides here; details of the year are below.
A strong focus on embracing your personality and independent side continues in 2024, dear Taurus, with Jupiter in your sign until May. You’re growing and blossoming in your expression of self and spirit. You see entirely new possibilities, and your vision of life is panoramic this year.
While you’re still doing some important “work” behind the scenes on emotional levels, you’re very often more out there, on, and confident in 2024. It’s a time of “out with the old, in with the new” as you continue a trend from the latter half of 2023 that keeps you looking forward and chasing new beginnings. You are determined to change your life for the better–and to be a better person as well.
Freedom and discovery are important themes for you in 2024. You seek more from life than the mundane, which can lead you to exciting new experiences and adventures or an uncomfortable state of discontented restlessness! The year finds you at your most bold and intriguing. Career opportunities come knocking at your door. Being your own boss is something you’re strongly leaning toward. You’re moving forward and growing, craving freedom and independence, and perhaps facing some endings as a result, but nothing that you cannot handle.
However, while exploration is a theme, you’ll be working hard at building foundations as 2024 advances. This is a time for building a nest egg, attending to comfort needs, and paying careful attention to relationships that require more work.
Money, comfort, and security dominate the headlines as the year advances. Late May onward is a powerful period for a stronger sense of abundance, whether about money, things, or more leisurely moments. Enjoying yourself and exploring your needs and desires are in focus. This period of your life can bring substantial opportunities for making money, a focus on accumulating possessions, and a particular need for comfort and security.
A feeling of plenty is wonderful, especially for Taureans, but be sure to curb the tendency to overspend and overindulge. Look for opportunities to make your life more comfortable and to make extra money – chances are, these abound.
There remains some mystery with some friendships, but the year is more stable for your social life overall. It’s possible you experience some seriousness or separation, but the Saturn theme related to your social sector is mostly about taking your connections more seriously. Meaningless connections may no longer appeal, for example. Partnerships are more about camaraderie and life path goals that mesh with yours this year.
You could experience some obsessiveness with your career, reputation, or status in spots, but you’re improving your work-rest balance this year. April is electric for personality changes, sudden opportunities, and growth. You’re doing new things and approaching the world with more confidence and enthusiasm.

Key Events in 2024 for Taurus:
Outer Planet Transits:
Jupiter conjuncts Uranus in April and is parallel Uranus in early May. These influences encourage high spirits. We’re ready to discover, explore, and innovate. This transit is exciting, futuristic, and original. The need for progressive change becomes glaringly apparent under this influence. It’s a time when we’re itching to update, refresh, and renew ourselves, projects, circumstances, and connections.
We might take risks (perhaps, but not necessarily, foolish ones) for the sake of freedom during this transit. We could too easily avoid taking responsibility for things that truly matter, or we could feel exceptionally restless.
We’re open to new energies, approaches, and attitudes under the influence of this transit. Fortunate events occur as a direct result of our willingness to entertain the unusual and to think outside of the box. We are feeling brave, positive, and optimistic. Enthusiasm runs high, the desire for freedom from restrictions is strong, and thirst for adventure is with us.
For Taurus, this is about your personality! It’s a powerful time for freeing yourself from limiting circumstances and burdens, and it’s quite a positive change.
Jupiter forms a sextile with Neptune in May. Jupiter is expanding our desire for security, comfort, abundance, earthy or sensual experiences, money, and material things while in the sign of Taurus. As it harmonizes with spiritual Neptune in Pisces, we’re more likely to factor in our spiritual values and need for imagination, romance, and concern or compassion for others into our pursuit. We are inclined to see the good in people and situations.
For Taurus, brilliant happiness goals and plans, camaraderie, and a magical social life or experience can figure strongly.
Jupiter forms a trine to Pluto in early June, and it’s easier to tap into our hidden talents or desires. As we do, we embrace new directions or pursuits. We’re discovering our ambitions and motivations, and it’s an enjoyable, productive experience. It’s a time when we strive to improve, grow, and bring something to the next level. A desire for more personal significance can lead us to give of ourselves or motivate us to more ambitiously pursue personal or professional goals. We can be opportunistic–it’s easier than usual to recognize opportunities because we’re looking to advance.
For Taurus, you bring more focus, determination, and intensity to your practical goals, money matters, and professional goals. Valuable alliances might be formed that help to advance your career or boost your income and sense of security.
Jupiter forms a square with Saturn in August, with Mars involved, and again in December, and circumstances are such that we must restructure our lives or plans in accordance with rules, laws, limits, and the demands of reality.
It’s best to breathe new life into old plans rather than to strike out with a new plan altogether during this period. We may need to cut back on something in order to grow in another area. It’s important not to overextend ourselves at this time and to avoid attempting easy fixes or shortcuts. The need to adjust our expectations becomes obvious.
For Taurus, the desire to nest, get comfortable, and enjoy more steadiness in your life can clash with responsibilities to friends or groups during this period. Consider whether you’re overdoing your commitment to nesting or indulging your desire for comfort too much for your own good.
Jupiter forms a sextile with Chiron in October & November, bringing healing magic to our lives. Our attempts to broaden our horizons through such experiences as furthering our education, expanded activities, and spirituality, contribute much to our personal growth.
This subtly uplifting time brings us the opportunity to free ourselves from restrictive and negative attitudes that have been undermining our progress. We are especially open to learning from others, and better able to help others to understand our point of view. Certainly, we might open our minds to different perspectives and philosophies. We are absorbing and possibly sharing what we’ve learned from past experiences and mistakes.
For Taurus, you might discover resources you never knew you had, or could receive excellent guidance and support from behind the scenes.
Other influences and minor transits:
Mars is retrograde from December 6th, 2024, to February 223rd, 2025, in the signs of Leo and Cancer (pre-retrograde shadow begins October 4th). We can feel stuck on past matters or situations, finding it difficult to move ahead.
Slowdowns, reparations, and reconsiderations are significant for you in the 2024 portion of this retrograde with fourth house matters: family, home life, domestic matters, and issues of nurturing or support. On a psychological plane, this can be about matters of identity, childhood connections or traumas, or roots. The desire for a more vibrant personal life is building. However, you can feel hampered or restricted in these areas temporarily.
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.

2024: 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 repeat trends in addition to new themes with you in 2024, dear Taurus. Every year, we see challenges and opportunities in different areas. It’s my hope that by understanding these areas of potential disruption and ease, 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. With Uranus again in Taurus and Jupiter in your sign until May 25th, your definitions of security continue to morph and develop. It’s a time of much self-development. Your personality and needs are changing! In 2024, your confidence continues to lift, and from May 25th forward, the focus can be on gaining more security and stability.
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 2024

North Node |
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 a direct, harmonious relationship with your sign).
The year 2024 holds mostly harmonious energy for you, Taurus. Even so, Uranus in your sign, while harmonious, can be pressuring at times. You’re challenged to shape up in important areas, particularly related to responsibilities, career, or reputation.
You’re certainly receiving prompts to connect with your ambitions in 2024. Still, you have more personality development to do before you delve deeply into them–a mission that will build in the upcoming years.

Overview: Harmony and Challenge of Outer Planets:
You have support coming from Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto again this year, dear Taurus, although Pluto is transitioning into a more challenging relationship with you. Tauruses are more imaginative and spiritual, and they’re more unpredictable than they used to be.
Taurus is a sign that is typically more interested in practical realities than intensive self-analysis, but these planetary influences suggest a continued greater interest in understanding the spiritual forces active in your life.
Chiron forms an awkward angle to your sign, and this can be a nagging background influence — from time to time, you feel the need to make adjustments, particularly in your private life.
You’re rarely comfortable making radical changes in your life, but with Uranus in your sign, 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 continues to assist you in opening your mind to new ideas and broadening your horizons. This is not always an easy task, but life experiences and higher education can be stronger and growing drives. However, this theme is winding down and will exit your life permanently in November.
As this influence is nearing an end, you can extract many rewarding lessons from it.
You continue to do some road tests, and there can be some bumps in the road, but Jupiter’s stay in your sign until May 25th brings you out of your shell.
You have the patience to nurture something into being, and this can relate to a project, business, garden, or relationship. In 2024, you may have to remind yourself of these talents since impatience can creep up unexpectedly.
This is a powerful year for sharing your personality. Later in the year, you’re doing comfort, money, and security in new, more positive, and happy ways. Go big in these areas, but know your limits!
The modern ruler of your career sector, Uranus, is in your sign again this year, and changes are very possible 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. It’s a process that’s ongoing, but nearing an end.
