Taurus Season 2023 By: Erin The Urban Mermaid

April 18, 2023 Off By Fire and Lux

The Zodiac wheel is off and running with its first shift into Taurus season.

Taurus season is normally a beautiful time, so aligned with everything Spring represents but this year we start off with a lot of chaotic energy.

Taurus season begins on April 20, 2023, during the hybrid eclipse on the Aries New moon and the next day, we begin Mercury Rx in Taurus.

Good thing Taurus is known for grounding…we’ll need it!

Taurus is the 2nd sign of the Zodiac, a Fixed Earth sign. Ruled by Lady Venus herself, Taurus and Venus together rule the second house, the “House of Values”.

Taurus radiates that Empress energy:

all things beauty and beautiful,
a touch of lux,
experiencing life through the senses,
an intimate connection with Mama Gaia,
comfort,
grace,
flowy creativity,
a slow life. . .

I mean, in alignment she really is giving GODDESS.

Taurus also rules our ca$h money! Our value system, monetarily and otherwise, possessions and the material aspects of life.

But, probably even more crucial and def not as recognized, Taurus rules our self-worth and how we value ourselves which is the makeup of self-love.

I am sure you’ve all heard the stubborn bull reference, because out of alignment, Taurus can seem like an unmovable mountain. This is part-true. They take their time with things because they want to get it right the first time and not have to go back and do it again. Major Taurus pet peeve.
Taurus can also over-indulge, overspend, and live beyond their means especially in the name of vanity and luxury.
Also, comfort is their literal safety blanket. If they feel the need to retreat you can probably find them in bed for days on end, literally unable to move.

How will this season bloom for us?

First and foremost, we must utilize the grounding portion of Taurus energy to get us through the beginning. So much going on in the cosmos and as we know: as above, so below.

Embracing the slow living factor can really help us navigate through this as well as offer a new perspective on life.
Amazing things can bloom if you can slow down enough to allow it.
Savor that morning coffee, smell the flowers, spruce up your home with little touches of beautiful things, get good sleep, sip the expensive champs because it’s Thursday and life is short, eat the cake!

Taurus is a great season for self-care, little acts that add up and attribute to our self-love bank.

This can mean getting a fun manicure to brighten your day or taking that time out to connect with your Higher Self through a journaling session.
Whenever you can, spend time in nature to rejuvenate the soul.
Nourish yourself.
Nourish your home.
Nourish your relationships.
Sprinkle a little bit of treat yo’self on there and you’ve got the recipe for a divine time!

A quick check in to bring some light to the Taurus shadows.

Please, be open and flexible to any other ideas, decisions, outlooks, thoughts or feelings than the one you think you’re married to.
Being stubborn is not fun for anyone, least of all, ourselves.
Try to avoid bull dozing others! You may think you are right or have the best option or idea but you may be crushing someone else’s dream in the process.
Treat yo’self is great but overdoing it can lead to unwanted weight; proverbially, physically and even monetarily (aka watch your spending habits!).

Finally, it’s natural to seek comfort when you’re low, but be aware if you become stuck both physically in bed or in patterns or cycles. As always, self-awareness is our savior.

Let’s see what the bull brings us, Fam!
