On April 19, 2025, the Sun moves from the cardinal, fire sign of Aries into the fixed, earth sign of Taurus.

 

It should be noted, if you were born at the beginning or end of a zodiac sign (each sign has 30 degrees) you are considered cusping the sign. As a result, you will take on the energies of the preceding sign (if born at the beginning of a sign) or the next sign (if you were born at the end of a sign). It is important to know what degree your sun sign is to establish if you are cusping your sun sign.  

 

The Sun has an orb of 16°; so for example, if you were born at 2° Cancer, you would still have your Sun in Cancer and Cancer would take up about 10° of your sun sign but your sun would also take up about 6° of the the previous sign of Gemini. As a result, both signs would characterize your inner persona.

Sun in Taurus

With the Sun in Taurus, your inner personality would represent reliability, consistency, dependability. You would be a deep thinker (Mercury will help to define this), slow to anger, although once provoked can hold on to grudges for an extended period of time.  You would be rarely late for work, or rarely miss a day, even when sick unless really ill. You are diligent with your responsibilities.  You are in it for the long haul and process deeply everything that you are experiencing, often keeping much of that inside.

 

Because your ruling planet is Venus (also shared by the sun sign Libra), there is often an enjoyment of the more finer things in life.  A nice home, comfortable surroundings, a reliable car (possibly new or near new if the expenses allow) and many Taureans prepare for retirement early in life. 

 

A reminder, we are talking about a clear definition of Taurus without any other indicators (planets, angles, aspects, etc.).

 

Taurus people are earthy and pleasure (depending on how you view this word) is important.  They love beauty, elegance and most are deeply romantic and when making love, Taureans are quite expressive and passionate.  They are usually quite loyal and once they find a suitable mate, they are with them for the long haul.  They are slow and steady when it comes to commitment. 

 

Taureans usually have strong bodies and can weather the storm of illness because of their resilience; however, much depends on their mental attitude about life (Mercury’s positioning will help define this). 

 

Taurus individuals are steadfast and true to anything they commit themselves to in life.

 

Depending on other factors in the chart (rising sign, MC positioning, the Nodes and other factors within the framework of the birth chart) many Taurus individuals are here to learn about the practicalities of our earthly experience.  Money is important, as is relationship commitments for Taureans. They live in the moment but prepare for a solid foundation.

 

Find a friend in Taurus and you have them for life, unless you do something to really hurt them.

 

Happy solar return to our committed, passionate, determined, hardworking Sun in Taurus followers. 

 

We will post an article next week highlighting Sun in Taurus 2025 forecast.

Some days just don’t feel the best, while other days feel spectacular. The latter, we always wish to hold on to longer. 

 

Know that regardless of what unfolds in life, it is temporary, and tomorrow is another day. Life continues forward, always. Learn from each and every experience.  Wrap your arms around adversity as these are the steppingstones to understanding and growth.
Tomorrow is another day. Allow and release!

For the days we wish we didn’t have to experience, it is often best to let go and know that tomorrow is a new beginning.  You never know what the future might hold, so holding on to what “was” serves no purpose.  If you hold on, it is impossible to move forward. 

 

Yes, some days feel very heavy. They can rob us of our peace and contentment and cause us much pain, emotionally, mentally and even physically.  We can linger in the memories or remnants of a difficult day for a long time, and experience extreme emotional moments because of it. 

 

It is important to experience the emotions attached to what unfolded as we can’t run away from events and our emotional response to them.  Dealing with some of the harsher moments can have profound lasting effects on us, if we choose to dwell and in some cases, being lost in an emotional event can cause us ill health.

 

We need to take each day, one at a time and work our way through adversity, acknowledging that we must feel whatever is necessary but that this too will pass.  Visit every lesson but do not take up residence there. Being stuck in a lesson can create health issues, relationship issues, career issues and the list goes on.

 

During those moments of sheer joy and exhilaration, enjoy the experience to its fullest by living in that moment. Acknowledge gratitude. Be thankful. 

 

Look around you. Do you see people just move along their old route, semi-lost in routine, without appreciation for any of it. They cannot enjoy the moment as they do not experience.

 

We are lucky with what life provides us. Share your life with others when possible. If the experience is personal in nature, seek solace and find comfort in it.

 

Know, that regardless of what unfolds in life, it is temporary, and tomorrow is another day. Life continues forward, always. Learn from each and every experience.  Wrap your arms around adversity as these are the steppingstones to understanding and growth. No transition is without pain. Love your life, even when it does not seem to be love you back. It is giving you what you need.

The Vertex is a point calculated with our birth time in the astrology chart usually indicating fated events or our destiny connected to the meeting with others who are important in our life.
The Vertex

The Vertex and anti-Vertex are points calculated within the framework of the chart, one exactly opposite the other using your exact birth time. 

 

They are both connected to meetings with others.  There is a feeling of destiny and karmic attached to the significance behind these meetings.  Known as points of destiny, sometimes creating turning points in life.  These meetings with others seem fateful and, in many cases, it is as if you have known this individual previously.

 

The Vertex has similarities to the Descendent and the Anti-Vertex has similarities to the Ascendant. 

 

The Vertex, which is associated with others and our meeting, suggest a feeling that these individuals may fill something that is missing within us, (almost having the effect of assisting in making us feel whole).  There is the feeling of having very little control over the situation and our meeting point. It feels fated in some manner, like it was meant to happen.

 

The Anti-Vertex has similarities with the Ascendant, but it seems as though when we meet these individuals there is no choice in the matter and once again fated on some level.  With the Anti-Vertex, these people affect us but not with the same impact as the Vertex. The Anti-Vertex people do not make us feel whole, but they can play a significant role in our lives.  The experiences we share, once again, feel fated and affect us in personal terms.

 

The Vertex and Anti-Vertex can be used in many different purposed charts, including the Natal chart, the Progressed chart, and the Solar chart.  When connected with Planets or points in these charts, the Vertex and Anti-Vertex are extremely significant.  The Planet that is contacted especially by Conjunction, but also by Opposition, Trine, Sextile and Square will define the energies brought forward. 

 

A couple of examples might be a Saturn contact suggesting someone enters our life who offers more responsibilities and may assist or hold us back in our objectives particularly tied to our career.  This person may be older or someone in authority. 

 

If the Moon is involved, it could be someone with an emotional connection, or someone who is tied in some way to family and is highly sensitive.  Don’t forget it may just be someone who enters your life because of an important experience that is required.

 

An experienced Astrologer can help you define the meanings behind these potentialities in your personal chart. 

 

Again, the Vertex is a point calculated with our birth time in the astrology chart usually indicating fated events or our destiny connected to the meeting with others who are important in our life.
