Taurus 2023

Phenomenal, fierce and awakened best describes you in ‘23, Taurus! Jupiter arrives in your sign in May after a 12 year absence. Get ready to push the envelope when it comes to embracing opportunity as you go higher, further and bigger than you have done before.

A series of major conjunctions between your ruler Venus and all the outer planets occurs from the very start of ‘23, Taurus. Between January 1 and March 30, Venus will co-join Pluto, Saturn, Neptune, Jupiter and finally Uranus in your sign. This process will see you emerge with a totally re-minted agenda and outlook when it comes to what you want or where you are going from here on in.

You will feel forged in the fires of transformation, glowing with with renewed purpose. Ready to explore or launch yourself in a fresh direction by the time Jupiter arrives in your sign on May 16.

Path and purpose – renewed!

Strange encounters, the spirit world, life after death, who you were in a past life and who you will be in a future one are the kinds of questions that take you into the deeper side of life in order to get answers. About your past decisions, why you chose them and where you go from here on in. Karma comes in to play now and you need to be looking back 18-19 years as the Nodes shift their axis from your 1st-7th to your 12^th – 6^th. Your 12^th house is always what you are unaware of or cannot see. But its incredible power is that is also contains what you can grow into. That hidden potential and opportunity for renewal.

Use this to go deep within. Your beliefs, the Tarot, astrology, self-help, a therapist, a psychic, a teacher, priest or rabbi are just a few examples of what or who you may call upon on this journey. Especially with Jupiter back in here and prior to it reaching your 1^st. Transformation for you – reframing the past, healing wounds, changing your ideas – will send you hurtling into a new cycle of freedom when Pluto and Saturn change signs.

Saturn enters your 11^th on March 7 promising serious commitment to goals. And reliable friendships. Pluto’s shift into your 10^th from March 23^rd could see many of you impelled to take a powerful new path or direction. Or step up into a more prominent position in your chosen career. The people who surround you at the time may prove to be the key to this. So do bring your best game and be aware of your public and professional image during this cycle.

Hours before the Sun’s arrival in your sign on April 20, we have an extremely rare event occur which will impact on your inner work and what you have been unaware of – perhaps until now. A hybrid solar eclipse occurs along with a new Moon in Aries. Do check your chart for Aries factors as many Taureans have them. You are looking for anaretic factors. That is anything at 29 degrees of Aries or 0 degrees of Taurus. If you have these, this will prove to be as powerful and as personal as it can get.

Eclipses cover up. We know this. A hybrid eclipse is an eclipse which combines all three eclipse types – total, annular and partial. What you see depends on the viewer’s perspective. This is the first hybrid eclipse to occur in Aries and your 12^th for 159 years. This is a big cover up that has been going on for a very long time. And changing your perspective or viewpoint is crucial to you seeing what it really going on. Perhaps it is you who has covered up your true needs, purpose and desires? Have you been wearing a public mask just to survive? Bending yourself out of shape to meet all responsibilities except the one to yourself? The answers to this lie within you.

Love answers the question

Gather your courage and move ahead as the Sun arrives in your sign hours later and do allow a few weeks beyond this eclipse to truly embrace what it wants you to know, look at or integrate. You begin your fresh cycle with the Sun, Mercury, Juno, Vesta, Uranus and the North Node in your sign. Mercury will retrograde in your 1^st on the 21^st plus you have another eclipse (lunar) which impacts on you as it occurs in your 7^th of double acts, duets and dynamic and dramatic double acts on May 5 while the Sun meets Uranus in your sign on the 9^th. This involves you sticking to what you know is right around a key relationship and will define your path in partners from here on in. Love is the answer one way or another to the questions posed by the eclipse cycle. Whether this is prioritising self-love or where love goes from here on in.

Feel the release and return of optimism, enthusiasm and the ability to grasp your fortune from here on in as Jupiter lands in your sign on May 16 and your personal new Moon appears on the 19^th. I told you earlier to be mindful of your image – now big it up but without exaggeration with Jupiter in here. It’s your key to attraction, progress and opportunity this Jupiter cycle. Expect bolder, unmissable updates to your appearance, image, style, look, profile, title, attitude and presence – on line and off it. Showcase this in a way that feels right for you. Update if needed. Some way even go as far as cosmetic enhancements – dental, facial procedures. Check where your ruler Venus is before booking! But yes, your face or message could literally be your fortune now.

If there is still an unanswered question around love, Jupiter in your 1^st can often act as a more powerful attractor than Jupiter in our 7^th. Why? Because Jupiter in our 1^st makes us feel good about ourselves. And that’s what activates the Law of Attraction and allows us to effortlessly tap into manifestation magic. You are the catalyst, the self-starter however. When we change our appearance we signal to the universe we are ready for change itself to take us and transform our lives. Are you?

Wake up to soul-centered self love

Take time up until June 1 when Mercury exits its retroshadow in your 1^st for renewal and to make lasting decisions around your future needs. As Mercury leaves the shadowlands – so do you, Leaving uncertainty and self-doubt and anything you’ve outgrown behind you. Embark on a journey of freedom now Taurus! The North Node will exit your sign on July 18 moving back into your 12^th while the South Node enters Libra and your 6^th. This is where decisions and choices from 18-19 years ago come into play and that remaining eclipse residue can be worked on and released. We are products of our past but not prisoners of it. We only repeat it or continue to live in it if we remain unawakened to our choices and reasons. Luckily you now see what you need to do in order to set a different destiny in motion. So, act, Taurus! This is soul centered self-love you are creating.

Reach for something bigger

2023 should see you reaching a few new and exciting goals both personally and professionally. Others see you in a fresh light. Even those who have known you for some time. And this simply reflects how you see yourself. Travel will feature for many of you this year as Jupiter rules the long distance kind. Plus, you will see improvements in relationships or an important new one begin – perhaps linked to your larger social circle.

Do slow down however in July when your ruler Venus makes a rare retrograde in your 4^th house and put that search for new love on hold. Many of you may review your living situations or be dealing with family agendas at this point. Venus will move direct again on Sept 4 – the same day Jupiter retrogrades in your 1^st. Think consolidation and also refinement of what you have set in motion. There’s a new deal on love or a working relationship on its way as Ceres enters your 7^th on Sept 13 while the soul-stretching Grand Earth Trine of October 2-3 puts that desire very firmly within reach.

You will feel the undeniable impulse to enact any remaining changes – especially around partnership matters as the planets begin to assemble for your yearly love and relationship peak. Mars (12^th), Mercury (22^nd) and the Sun (23^rd) join Ceres in your 7^th. However, you have an eclipsed full Moon in your sign on October 28. Do ensure your plans don’t exclude that special someone. Know however where to set those boundaries but also when to compromise. This is the final stage of the relating/inner work your have been doing. And one final barrier to cross before full soul freedom. You got this!

The year ends with you enjoying an extra serving of peak partnership experience as Venus enters its ruling 7^th in December. You also have at this point, anaretic Pluto back in Capricorn and your 9^th but about to enter your 10^th again. Many of you may benefit from your past hard work and coming from a place of soul integrity in what you do. Pluto could well give you a second boost up the ladder as it returns to your 10^th early in ‘24.

Maximise the changes you’ve made to your image heading into the new year as Jupiter rolls forward again in your 1^st on New Year’s Eve. Look back and celebrate the dynamic changes you set in motion. And the doors that magically opened for you as a result of that. It all begins within you, Taurus. Change your thoughts, align your image to that – and watch the world reflect that.
