Taurus Daily Forecast

Love's changing shape, and you're ready for it. The New Moon breathes fresh life into your connections, whether you're single, cuffed or somewhere in between. Be brave enough to show what's real, not what's perfect. The energy calls for honesty, not control. If things feel flat, shake them up. If someone matters, say so. New beginnings want in, but you have to open the door.

A lot is being packed into the Moon's final hours in your relationship sector. As the Sun and Moon align they are both moving and pulling things forward, making this a good day for new beginnings and for drawing a new line in the sand. At the same time, a clash with Uranus 12 days after he retrograded back into Taurus might push some old buttons, just as Mercury, the planet of communication is spending his first full day in retrograde motion back in your relationship sector. With the Moon and Mercury both at a friendly aspect to Jupiter, in retrograde motion in your communication sector, with support to give your relationships, the past and unsaid words a voice.

Because the Moon will leave your relationship sector shortly after today's New Moon and the Sun will leave in two days, much of what their alignment today can trigger or set in motion will be left to the planets that are staying on. Fortunately, those planets are Venus and Mercury, the planets of love and communication and they are standing by, ready to run with both a chance for new beginnings and second chances.

Your charm and wit make you very attractive to others, one thing leads to another, but this only happens if your partner takes the initiative. You’re simply too passive to get something going. If you live with someone and are in a relationship, your lover finds your indecision irritating, causing needless upsets.

When the Moon left your work sector two days ago, this didn’t just leave you with an intuitive edge but brought you to a point in this professional year when everything until now across the income, work and career fronts has brought you to a new starting point. Of the trio of forces that have dominated recent months, Pluto in your career sector is the last planet standing and he is looking to the future. With major new doors opening on the career front in January, this leaves you with everything needed to plan ahead and bring this professional year home.

A day after Mercury retrograded back out of your financial sector and with the Sun still two days away from turning the solar spotlight onto your financial situation and money matters, the Moon’s return today is a chance to put focus on Mars, the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos. With Mercury gone, the brakes have come off money matters, with the Moon able to sharpen your financial instincts and give you a better sense of when, where and how to channel Mars’ financial passions and fighting spirit.

If you’re struggling to find the reason for your present apathy and inability to deal with whatever it is you must face, take a short break alone, and reflect on the issues before you. Enjoy the silence, relax and free your mind from all the goings-on. It’s possible you’ll conclude that you take things too seriously.
