Venus X Taurus 2021 By: Erin The Urban Mermaid
April 14, 2021On April 14th, 2021, Venus switches Zodiac signs and leaves fiery Aries and heads to sensual Taurus where she will stay until May 8th, 2021. While Venus in both of these signs does bring a certain element of passion, this position will be quite the change!
Venus in Taurus brings a certain Goddess factor to the table. For starters, Venus is Taurus’s ruling planet, together the two rule the second house, the “House of Values”, so it is at home during this station and whenever we have a planet at home, the energy is extra potent. Venus herself embodies all things Divine Feminine and female. She rules over not only how we love and what we value, but our possessions, finances, senses, pleasures and beauty. When I think of Venus in Taurus, I think of the Empress card in the tarot, she is beautiful, fertile, abundant and connected with Mama Gaia.
While Venus in Aries was bringing us that hot and spicy love life, Venus in Taurus wants us to slow down and feel love and sex with our senses, making it an experience of pure pleasure. In fact, this transit is about taking all that passion from Aries and now harnessing the Taurean energy to have the stamina to sustain this passion long term, through sensuality. At the risk of sounding cliche, this transit is about true intimacy by taking the time to know your partner. This isn’t the quickie in the bathroom of the bar with some hot random. This is about strong and loyal love, listening to your partner’s desires and wanting to pleasure them. It’s about being in relationships for the long haul and building together. And while Aries was with the quickness and not stopping to think things through, Taurus learned from that. They don’t want to go back and do things over again or do something twice, they would rather take their time to make the right move or decision, even if it takes them a bit longer than most.
Now all of this may sound great to us folk on our grown and sexy game, but we do of course, have those few shadows that always pop up. While indulging is wonderful from time to time overindulging is overdoing it. So as Venus does rule over our finances and possessions, I encourage you to be mindful of your spending habits. Ask yourself! Do you really need another material “thing” or can that money be better used. Being extra is part of this transit, but take caution because extra can lead to some extra we don’t want!! I’m not here for no extra weight, extra debt, extra bills, nor extra BS! As some jealousy in partnerships can arise, we must not let these emotions get the better of us. Express your feelings to your partner and you can avoid this.
Overall, we must appreciate this transition because we start to see a bit of an evolution in ourselves as the planets change their signs. And who doesn’t love a transformational moment? Take this time to enjoy and appreciate some good food, flavorful wine, smelling the beautiful spring blossoms and making love to your Divine counterpart. And yes! You can be your own Divine counterpart if that’s what is in the cards right now!
So treat yo’self a little bit, FireandLux fam, y’all deserve it!
