Taurus Monthly Forecast

Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of September in a playful and creative part of your chart before ending the month in your busy work sector and because the timing of Venus and Mercury's return each year is more fluid, this is a month when a balance between work and play will always be important. This year, rather than being confined to the crossover period later in the month, knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off will need to be a priority from the start. For rather than wait for the Sun, Mars' return to your work sector last month has not only already fired things up on the job front, but with help from planets on the income and career fronts. Even though Mars will leave on 22nd September, the day before the Sun returns, Mercury will leave a playful and creative part of your chart and return to your work sector on 18th September. However, that doesn't mean that the scales will tip to the busy side of life's fence, with Venus' return to a playful and creative part of your chart on 20th September, keeping this active all month as well. However, as the last planet to return and the last to leave, Venus knows she only has a few weeks to put some guardrails in place, with things remaining active on the income, work and career fronts for months to come. Meanwhile, it is in the early hours of the month that just over three months after leaving, Saturn will retrograde back into your friendship sector on 1st September to find that a lot has changed. Saturn will return to find Jupiter in your communication sector for the first time in over a decade and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment not only still in your relationship sector but due to be joined by Mars on 22nd September. This is taking the support that has been building across the communication, social and relationship fronts to the next level, while leaving behind four planets in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart that will continue to monitor how well you know when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off.

Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of September in your romantic sector, the solar spotlight is always on matters of the heart and all things romantic at this time of year. However, with a few differences that could make all the difference. The first is that while he left last month Mars, the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos has already moved through, with a chance to fire up your financial passions and fighting spirit before the Sun even returned. The second is that held back by a retrograde phase Venus, the planet of love will be late to return this year. Venus will return on 20th September to begin what she will be working to make the most romantically charged weeks of the year. This is just 16 minutes after the Moon will not only return to begin the second New Moon since the Sun returned last month, but as a solar eclipse and a second and more powerful chance for new beginnings. With the Sun leaving on 23rd September, instead of what can be the most romantically charged weeks of any year ending, they are just getting started. While Mercury, who will move through your romantic sector from 3rd September to 18th September will be gone by the time Venus returns, not before doing what he can to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page. While September is usually the most active month of any year on the romantic front, it is not usually until October that the focus starts to shift onto your relationships. However, you not only have the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment in her final months in your relationship sector before leaving on 1st October, but on 22nd September she will be joined by Mars, with the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos returning for his first visit to your relationship sector in two years. The Moon's return from 24th September to 27th September will be a chance to move into this new chapter emotionally engaged and aware.
