Who You Really Are
Represented by the bull, Taurus stands firm and unshakeable. Like the bull’s steady hooves, Taurus is unmovable. Like the bull’s horns, Taurus will defend what is important to him. Like the bull’s slow-moving demeanour, Taurus is here to enjoy the sun on its back, the food in its mouth, and the beauty of nature. As a developed Taurus, you are loving, sensual, responsible, and sure-footed. When underdeveloped, stubbornness can take over, as well as a refusal to change and a tendency to overindulge. Flexibility, moderation, and open-mindedness are lessons in this life for you.
Taurus is a fixed earth sign, ruled by Venus and at home in the 2nd house of physical resources and security. Fixed signs are reliable, stable, and persistent, while earth signs are wise, grounded and reliable. The 2nd house represents the part of life where we discover our physical selves and our place on this earthly plane. Taurus is here to experience, build, and feel.
Finally, Venus is the planet of the senses, love, creativity, and abundance, adding a unique beauty, sensuality, and artistry to this sign. As a Taurus, you are here to experience the senses fully, to connect with people with love and commitment, and to work steadily to build something that lasts. Feel your feet on the earth, Taurus, you are home.
Career and Money
Career-wise, the first six months of this year are big for you. From the very beginning of 2023 until the 11th of June, your work and what it means to you will take a central role in your mind and life in general. From January until the beginning of March, it is time to build. Make plans, develop skills, network, and work hard. You’ll be surprised by how quickly your hard work will be rewarded.
From the 23rd of March, it is a time of transformation for you and your career. Between March and mid-June, don’t be surprised if big changes occur in your career, maybe even more than once. Use the full moon in Aquarius to reflect on your year so far and decide where you want to go from here.
You should hold off making any big financial moves until after the 13th of January this year. Instead, act from then until the 25th of January, when your motivation will be high. Financial research, connections, and organising are perfect for this time. The 11th of April until the 26th of June is an ideal time to focus on your money; invest and make plans for your financial future. On the full moon in Gemini on the 27th of November, take some time to reflect on your financial decisions and course correct if you need to.
Friends and Family
Your social season begins at the end of January this year and continues until mid-June. This means you are primed for socialising, making friends, meaningfully connecting, and joining groups for the first half of 2023. You may find that spirituality, compassion, and left-field interests bring you closer to people during this time, especially around the 16th of March. For the rest of your year, friendship continues to play a big role, but may have more of a focus on learning hard lessons, responsibility, and trust within your social circles. On the 31st of August, use the full moon in Pisces to reflect on what is most important to you within friendship, and decide what boundaries you may need to set.
On the 5th of February, the full moon in Leo will bring up themes of home and family for you. Use this energy to reflect on your relationships and sense of security, and if changes need to be made. From the 20th of May until the 9th of October, family and home themes will come in and out of focus. This is a time when your desire to be happy will spark change once and for all.
Love and Romance
On the Taurus lunar eclipse on the 5th of May, your love life comes sharply into focus. If there have been relationship issues, a will-they-won’t-they type scenario or some other love dilemma, now is when it will come to a head. Anything you’ve been hesitating about, holding back from, or indecisive about is about to be resolved for you. The easiest way to weather this event is to not resist but to accept that everything that happens is in your best interest.
From the 24th of October until the end of the year, romance themes come up again, this time in a less dramatic fashion. Dating, long-term relationships, and other partnerships are all well-suited to this time of year. You are looking for honesty, authenticity, and depth in a partner, so don’t settle for less.
On the 12th of November there may be a sudden change to circumstances, the truth may be uncovered, a milestone may be reached, or a relationship may end. Whatever it is will take you by surprise. And on the 10th of December, powerful love and intimacy energy surround you, so make the most of it.
Your Year in a Nutshell
Tauruses aren’t typically the biggest fans of change, but with the earth moving to create your desired reality, you soon will be. Evolution is inevitable now, with high and low energy levels, beginnings and endings, and growth and healing around every corner. But you can relax because you’ll get there when you get there. You always do.
