Taurus Taurus

December 18 ~ January 1, 2025

There are few things better than being given permission to take some time for yourself, guilt free. With Mars currently retrograde in Leo, this is having a tenderizing effect on your emotional body, and when soft is what you are feeling, then time to crawl into your cave is what you are craving. Perhaps you are feeling drawn to make jams or bake bread, with your senses so hungry for sweets, comforting smells, and savory things. The last thing you are feeling drawn to do is to leap into something head first or without careful consideration. This tends to be your nature anyway, to methodically work your way into your next move. But the reversal of Mars in Leo colors your movement with another layer of significance. It has you taking some vulnerable steps to open your heart which will require activating another level of bravery on your part. Quiet courage is underrated. It can be far more challenging to access when you are feeling naked and stripped down in some way. However, emotional courage is the stuff the Gods care the most about, and it’s the stuff you too will come to care the most about as well at the end of your days. Why? Because evolution requires impeccable self-honesty, and this always elicits the need for more courage. It’s equally as important to feel all the way into what you must, and to take the time to process through any and all of those bottom dwelling emotions. Remember too that whatever you are feeling or experiencing, “Courage does not always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, “I will try again tomorrow” (Mary Anne Radmacher). Mercury is moving direct again in truth-seeker Sagittarius, providing you with a natural pathway to reach ever more deeply into your Soul, and to feel more inspired and empowered because of who you are. Tell yourself the words you need to hear, over and over and over, until they become your walking mantra for life. Jupiter in Gemini retrogrades back to trine your ruler Venus in Aquarius as we initiate this Starcast week, and it has a way of inviting opportunity within your career realm and worldly pursuits. As you circle back with old connections, new doors open that remind you so clearly of the natural timing of things. If it’s easy, it’s oh so right.

Prepare for a giant smile when it happens!
