Serenity ~ A Taurus Story
An astrological sequence of events unfolding between now and the full Moon on the 26 April is like a process or a narrative. Serenity is a story set in the temple of Venus, the House of Taurus. This Taurus story is likely to involve practical matters and plans arranged with tangible outcomes in mind.
Friendships, new romances, affairs and relationships, objects of beauty, fine art, gardens of earthly delights and creative projects deserve much more attention, now more than ever. Gratitude and radical forgiveness are your best friends.
On the 19th April Mercury and the Sun are conjunct, what astrologers call Cazimi. Cazimi means that Mercury is in the heart of the Sun, he is sitting on the Kings knee so to speak, a very special and powerful position. Mercury is the messenger god so you could expect an important announcement or some news or information that changes everything.
Then Mercury, followed by the Sun, enters Taurus on the 19th and 20th of April signalling the beginning of Taurus month and a much more grounded, steady energy. Practical considerations will need to be balanced against aesthetics. How it looks and feels will be more important than usual. Some of the results could be surprising or even quite radical.
Venus is now much stronger in her own house. Although she is still close to the Sun she is protected from its heat and may even benefit from it. This is great news for relationships.
Love, beauty and joy blossoms in the most unlikely places as Venus transits over Uranus on the 23 April. Agreements, compromises and common ground can be forged out of unusual circumstances.
Then Mars moves into Cancer on 24th April, with Mercury conjoining Uranus at the same time making the situation even more surprising, exciting and volatile. This is a significant shift in direction. Mars in the house of the Moon wants us to slow down and attend to our home and family situation. Working from home or taking time off might be what you need.
On the 26th of April with Venus and Mercury conjoined, money is changing hands and financial commitments are signed off. Land, property and realestate interests are supported, but are still requiring patience and diligence. If you are digging for buried treasure, either literally or figuratively, the finest golden artefacts are ready to be unearthed.
The full Moon on the 27 April in Scorpio brings things out in the open. It could release deep feelings or reveal secrets that have been buried too long. The theme is trust and loyalty, with tension between commitments and responsibilities and a desire to break free bubbling away beneath the surface.
Some want radical change and some want to wait. This is the theme of the year and it will be a while before the pressure eases off.
