today we have a most auspicious shift of the goddess of Love and beauty (venus) into taurus, one of her two home signs (she also rules libra). planets shift into new signs all the time- so what makes this one auspicious? well first of all both greater benefics are in taurus right now- both venus and jupiter were seen as incredibly beneficial by ancient astrologers. where they are found natally or transiting in your natal chart you are said to be gifted in some way as well as protected. so right now the taurus area of your chart is gifted and protected tenfold!
in addition to both the greater benefics gracing the sign of the bull, we also have a plethora of amazing venus and jupiter aspects occurring over the coming weeks. venus will harmoniously aspect mars, jupiter, neptune, pluto and chiron in the next two weeks. on top of that jupiter and pluto are perfecting their trine- exact on monday the 12th- so venus will activate that and bring the expansive and transformative energies of these two planets into our relationships, finances, sense of security and self-worth. this is really amazing astrology and it brings a balm to the Soul despite all the intensity and activation of late (mercury retrograde, uranus/pluto square, chiron square venus, mars retrograde, full moon conjunct mars approaching- enough to drive anyone insane!!!).
to see where your gifts and protection lies right now look to where taurus is in your natal chart (read for your sun AND rising sign). this is the area that you can turn to when things get rough or chaotic, and where you can find comfort, optimism, opportunity and even rewards!
check your weekly horoscopes for more info on what this means for you. this is auspicious for everyone, but it is especially so for fixed signs taurus, leo, scorpio and aquarius as the greater benefics are aspecting the angles of your chart (house of self, house of home/foundation, house of relationship and house of career/life path).
embrace and enjoy the grace, ease and beauty of the goddess that is coming your way…
