On April 20 you entered one of your yearly personal pleasure peaks. And this is going on for the month ahead. Now it’s good to focus on the body and image and get them into shape. It’s also good for pampering the body and enjoying the sensual delights. Self-esteem and self-confidence are at their strongest for the year. Perhaps a given relationship is troubling, but you are still attractive to the opposite sex. Love is better than it has been for a while (and next month it will be even better). Marriage at this time is still not advisable, however.
Your financial planet moved into your sign on April 23 and will be there until May 7. This is wonderful financially. Money and financial opportunity seek you out. Financial windfalls happen. You earn on your own terms, with honour. You feel rich and look rich (each according to their status and stage in life). On the 21st the Sun will join Mercury in your money house and you enter a yearly financial peak. The month ahead is prosperous indeed – Taurus heaven.
Mercury goes ‘out of bounds’ on the 12th and stays that way for the rest of the month. This shows that you are exploring new paths to wealth, going outside your usual boundaries, going outside the box, breaking with old limitations. This might horrify family members or a parent figure, but it works.

You are still well into a yearly financial peak and you have a prosperous month ahead. Your financial planet is still ‘out of bounds’ until the 5th, and your forays into the unknown seem to work out. Mercury goes retrograde on the 7th. This will not stop your earnings, it will not stop the prosperity, but it slows it down a bit. It is time to review your finances and make plans for improvements. But first mental clarity is needed. Doubts need to be resolved. If you’re planning major purchases of expensive items or major investments, it will be best to wrap these things up before the 7th. If you must do these things after that date (circumstances sometimes force us), do your homework well and take steps to protect yourself. Check the return policy at the shop. Financial thinking is often unrealistic under a retrograde aspect and you need to protect yourself against mistakes. Financial delays can happen, but the overall prosperity remains intact.
Personal appearance is very important financially after the 23rd. Good to invest in this.
Love is relatively good this month. Everything in life is relative. Venus in your sign adds beauty to the image. You dress well and look good. You are attractive to the opposite sex. Venus makes beautiful aspects to the love planet, Pluto, from the 8th to the 12th. Singles will meet interesting prospects. With Pluto still retrograde, allow love to develop as it will without pushing it. Just be yourself. There’s no need to make important love decisions now. You are still a seeker of ‘clarity’ in your love life. If there is one thing that Taurus can’t deal with it is instability – and this is the situation in love these days. There are cosmic lessons to be learned here.
This is a good period for buying clothing and personal accessories – until the 23rd. You have a good instinct for this. Your taste is impeccable.
Health is good, as it was last month too. You can enhance it further through neck massage (always important for you) and arm and shoulder massage (from the 23rd onwards). Mind–body healing methods are powerful after the 23rd.
Venus, the ruler of your Horoscope, re-activates the Solar Eclipse of April 29 on the 5th and 6th. Take it easy and avoid taking risks. Children (or children figures) should also take it easy.
Mars opposes Uranus from the 22nd to the 26th – a very dynamic aspect. Avoid confrontations and drive more carefully. There can be short-term upheavals in your career and with those involved in your career – especially parents, parent figures, bosses and authority figures. They should avoid risk taking too. Your intuition needs to be verified more then too, rather than just acted upon.

There are some interesting phenomena this month. While the short-term planets are reaching their nadir (the lowest point in your Horoscope), and technically you are near the midnight hour of your year, Mars’s move into Scorpio on the 18th makes the upper half of the Horoscope just as strong as the lower half. Not so easy now to get a ‘good night’s rest’ and work by the methods of night! It’s as if you are being woken up to deal with outer affairs. Your challenge this month will be to handle your career AND your home, family and emotional needs. Handle career demands by all means, but make sure you rest whenever possible. Constantly being on the go is never advisable, but sometimes it can’t be helped.
Jupiter makes a major move this month – on the 17th – from Cancer into Leo, from your 3rd house to the 4th. He will be there for the rest of the year ahead and well into next year. This often indicates moves or renovations of the home. The home life is basically happy and there is good family support. Some family members, perhaps a parent or parent figure, can be having dramatic experiences – surgery or encounters with death – but these are just bumps on the road. Family support is still strong in the year ahead.
Mars moves into your 7th house of love on the 18th. This complicates an already tricky love situation. If you’re not careful conflicts can escalate. There will most likely be negativity here, but it is up to you to minimize or maximize it – and it is best to minimize negativity where possible. Mars is your spiritual planet. Thus the message here is to surrender the love life to a Higher Power and let that handle things. When this is done sincerely, peace enters the situation.
Finances are still very good. They are perhaps not as active as last month, but they are still good. Your financial planet starts moving forward on the 2nd and your financial judgement is back to its normally good standard. The money house remains powerful until the 18th. This indicates a strong focus on finance, and we get what we focus on. Sales, marketing, advertising and good PR are always important for you on a financial level, but this month more so than usual. The financial planet is in the sign of Gemini until the 13th and then moves into your 3rd house of communication, and the above activities come under the domain of Gemini and the 3rd house. Trading is also a good source of income this month.
The 3rd house of communication and intellectual interests is very powerful this month. Thus it is a good period to catch up on all those letters, calls, emails and texts that you owe. It’s also very good for taking courses in subjects that interest you – good for reading and studying. Students have a successful month.
