Taurus Daily Forecast

You and someone have strong opinions about where life's heading. That's fine - until it turns into a power struggle. You don't need to fight to prove your way is better. Listen, step back and let the tension breathe. A bit of space clears the fog and shows what matters most. Control kills connection, and you're aiming for teamwork, not territory. Today's challenge? Stay cool and keep perspective.

A day before Mercury is due to retrograde back into your relationship sector, where, as the planet of communication, he will join up with the Sun and Venus to take you into some pivotal days on the relationship front, the Moon returns. This begins the lead up to a New Moon that will capture the support building on the communication, social and relationship fronts, where there is growing support for both new beginnings and the past and second chances. Until then, in his last full day in your financial sector before retrograding back out tomorrow, his smart head for money comes with the kind of hindsight that makes this an ideal day for spending time back at the drawing board.

While the Moon's return to your relationship sector today is a monthly event and something that every four weeks brings a chance to check in and become more emotionally engaged and aware, this not only begins the lead up to a New Moon in two days, but with perfect timing. A day before Mercury, the planet of communication is due to retrograde back in and with the Sun leaving later in the week, the Moon's only visit while Venus, the planet of love is here is set to be one of the most significant of the year.

It's easy to be dismissive of others, but more might develop if you show some genuine interest, don't be surprised if new people shun you when you behave this way. If you have a relationship partner, it’s unlikely your attitude and lack of enthusiasm goes down too well, you need to be pushed before trying.

Before leaving your work sector and not only wrapping up its first visit since Venus left 11 days ago but with her departure having ended all planetary activity on the job front for the year, the Moon will be working to pass on as much information and insight as possible. With your subconscious able to download information faster than you can process it at the time, this makes this a day for trusting your gut without overthinking things.

When Mercury retrogrades back out of your financial sector tomorrow, this will take the brakes off money matters just as in his efforts to move things forward, Mars has been spinning his wheels. When Mercury leaves and takes the brakes off, this will see money matters sprint forward, but with one last day to focus Mercury’s smart head for money on the road behind, while making the most of these final hours back at the drawing board.

Living healthier is great, but if you don’t have any self-control it doesn’t work. Make improvements to your diet, quit any bad habits and add recreational activity and exercise to your daily routine. It’s extremely important if you only do the minimum, and even if you don’t feel like it at all, to use some restraint.
