Mercury X Taurus 2021 By: Erin The Urban Mermaid
April 23, 2021On April 19, 2021, Mercury moves out of fast thinking Aries and moves into intentional and mindful Taurus where it will stay until May 3, 2021. For the next few weeks we will have the Sun, Venus, Uranus and Mercury all in the sign of Taurus, making this season a time to slow down and feel the magick.
Mercury rules over our communication, our thoughts, our speech, our writing, how we process information and our intelligence. But, as I always like to remind everyone, from a 5th dimensional perspective it also rules our consciousness. This is our state of being. Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac and she is a builder. Ruled by Venus, Taurus is slow, rooted, carefully thought out and fixed. They will always take their time and you simply cannot rush them.
What can we expect from this Mercury in Taurus transit?
It’s time to slow down our crazy minds. It is a wonderful time to establish a meditation practice, even if it’s only a few minutes a day. If you can, get out and do this in nature. Taurus is an Earth sign and is deeply connected to the outdoors. Not only does this give your mind and body a rest, when we are in quiet, we allow ourselves to actually see/hear/feel/connect with the messages coming through. Being more mindful also allows us to live with intention and remove the excess from our minds and life. Where are we being extra in what we consume that affects us mentally? Too much TV? Too much time on social media? Engaging in mindless conversation? Let us reflect on how that time can be better spent for our highest good.
Of course, we can expect a few shadows that come with this transit. Taurus is quite fixed, some may say unmovable, when their mind is made up. Remember to still be open to change and flexibility, keep your options open. As well, don’t get so caught up in making the “right choice” that you become stagnant. Being stuck is never conducive and can be difficult to get yourself back up and running again.
We need to look at this transit as an opportunity to change our lifestyles simply by being more thoughtful. A little bit of consideration can go a long way and let a lot of magick in
