Fixed, Earth sign of Taurus
Sun in Taurus

On April 19, 2024, we move from the Cardinal, Fire sign of Aries into the Fixed, Earth sign of Taurus.  The ruling planet of Taurus is Venus, and Taureans are generally warm and charming individuals because of the influence of the planet Venus.  They can be social but also prefer to be by themselves at times.  Most are well-grounded and are considered stable, structured and reliable.

 

Taureans want to achieve in life but also realize that it takes time and work to get to where they wish to be.  They slowly strive for financial security, and some become attached to money ventures and beautiful objects.  The feeling of owning something provides them with a sense of security and many begin to start saving at a young age.

 

They are naturally sensual and seek out the physical because they are attached to what is real.  Anything that seems out of reach or beyond what might be considered normal or stable, they will try to avoid.  They don’t like change and will often go with the flow but at the same time remain steadfast with their values.  They don’t like to create waves and want things to have a sense of reliability and structure to them.

 

Much of what they acquire provides them with a sense of self-worth as there is a need to feel secure.  Once they begin to acquire, they will have a hard time letting go.  They like what is comfortable and change is not high on their list.  They are considered stable, and they seek stability. Taureans seek structure and reliability.  In most cases, they are loyal once committed to whatever they seek out, whether that be an idea or a person.  They push ahead with their ventures and become fixed and steadfast in their approach.

 

The Sun sign has to do with our personality and what motivates us.  It is also tied to goals and aspirations.  It is who we are on a very deep level and does not necessarily reflect on the outside, at least when people first meet us. 

 

At the end of April 2024 transiting Venus moves into the sign of Taurus and makes a conjunction with those with their Sun in Taurus. This contact will last until Venus moves into Gemini on May 23, 2024.  The energies of this contact will greatly depend on what degree the Taurus Sun is in the chart.

 

Venus will be accentuated in the sign of Taurus and could enhance the Taurean’s ability to acquire material objects that are desired.  Perhaps they are thinking about buying a home or a car or perhaps they are thinking about a new relationship or building on an existing one. These are all potentials that might surface during this timeframe.  Much will depend on the house involved and other aspects of transiting planets at this time.  The house position shows the area of life that is reflected.  Other planetary links speak of other energies in place.

 

We will look deeper into the aspects affecting our Taurus readers in our next post tomorrow.

Jupiter Square Natal Midheaven suggests a time of testing and hard work to reach your goals with your career.
Jupiter Square Natal Midheaven

What does transiting Jupiter square natal midheaven suggest in an Astrology chart?


Transiting Jupiter carries with it potential for growth and expansion when it touches other planets or angles in the natal chart.  All angles from Jupiter promote the potential for something good to come out of almost any situation.  The planet or angle which is aspected by Jupiter will of course have to be evaluated within the framework of the natal chart, but in general, Jupiter’s energies are what we look forward to while in transit.

 

When Jupiter makes a square to our midheaven, although the square is considered a challenging aspect, with some work, we now have the possibility of promoting ourselves in our career, with our goals and aspirations, potentially with our status in life and getting recognition where we might not have had received credit previously.

 

Jupiter moves relatively quickly, usually moving about 1° every 4-5 days, and we allow a 3-5° approaching orb and a 2-3° separating orb of influence. Accordingly, this aspect might last 3-4 weeks.  Much will depend on whether Jupiter moves into retrograde while passing over our midheaven degree.  If it does, the energy created by Jupiter will extend a little longer, and we will have time to review what we are setting out to accomplish.

 

Jupiter promise growth and potentially favorable conditions, but because of the square, there may be obstacles in the way or what you might define as slow progress.  There may be times when you feel as though you will not accomplish what you are trying to do, but, with the right amount of perseverance and a steady approach, your chances of success on some level are good. You may not reach your highest objectives, but you can still achieve during this period.

 

There may be difficulties getting your point across or you might find that if you are applying for a promotion or raise that you have other people competing with you or perhaps someone in authority may question your abilities.  The worst that can come from this period is a time of testing, or a time of lessons learned through this experience. The lessons learned can be used as steppingstones maneuvering your way forward.

 

If you have planets connected to your MC (Midheaven), especially those that are conjunct, you will need to take into consideration what these planets’ impacts may be on your MC. The sign on the cusp of your MC along with other significators within the chart will also add insight into the potential of what your aspirations might be. Take everything into consideration within the chart to help define what you should be doing with respect to your career options. 

 

The midheaven extension is a process that helps define what our objective in life might be and what type of work would be best suited for us.  Sometimes our goals and objectives do not line up with our choice of career.

You know that everything in life is temporary so if you happen to be going through a challenging phase, know that this too will pass. 

 

If you are experiencing a wonderful period, enjoy it as everything is temporary.  This is not to say that the good times will pass, only that what is perfect in the moment is just that, perfect in the moment.

 

If you are going through a tough time, learn from the experience.  It has been put in front of you so you can master it and perhaps use the experience and its lessons at a later date.  Perhaps your difficulty will help another individual one day, as now you have experience to share. 

 

If life seems to be filled with difficulties perhaps your focus needs to change.  Perhaps your focus has been solely on the hard lessons in life, and you know that focus brings more of what you are concentrating on.  Change that focus.  Instead of paying attention to what is challenging in life, look too at what in life is good and fulfilling.  Even in the most difficult of times, there IS a knowledge that adds benefit from our experience.  You might have to look a little deeper and believe that you will find something, particularly when we are in the middle of the lesson.  Attitude is everything!

 

The more you realign to being open to learning and enjoying (and choose to be happy) the more there is to be thankful for.  You will still encounter difficulties, but you will also begin to see something more positive happening in your life. 

 

You are not your mind. You are the one listening to the thoughts.  You can choose which ones you want to adhere to and the ones you allow to pass by.

 

The challenges in life encourage you to learn, grow, gain strength and confidence.  In fighting the lesson at hand, you create stress and dis-ease.
Go with the flow.

The challenging situations in life encourage you to learn and grow. In learning from these situations, you gain strength and inner confidence builds.  In challenging these situations and fighting the lesson at hand, you create stress and dis-ease.

 

You are your own master, your own creator.  Make your life into what you wish it could be.  You wouldn’t have any idea of what that looks like unless it was already within your grasp.  Reach out and grasp what is available and go with the flow. Live your life with focus, positivity, confidence that you are always moving in the right direction.
