Taurus Monthly Horoscope

TAURUS MONTHLY HOROSCOPE - GENERAL
July 2024

Mars is not only on the move this month, but he is following in the footsteps of the planets that have gone before him and in the process is picking over the spoils of war. By the time Mars returned to Taurus in May it had been nearly three weeks since your birthday month ended and 14 days since Jupiter left, bringing the foundation year of this new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion to a close. By the time Mars returned to begin a new two year Mars cycle, paths had already been forged and there were options to explore and exploit as he fires up your passions, warrior and competitive spirit. This is something that Mars will continue to do until he leaves on 21st July. This is when Uranus will be back on his own, with the planet of surprise, synchronicity and the unexpected quietly keeping things on track and on course. It is then that a month to the day after the Sun left your income sector and while Jupiter has been on his own here for a month, Mars will return for his first visit in two years and his first encounter with the planet of luck and expansion here since 2013. Mars will return with the drive to fight for what you deserve and to support Jupiter’s quest for income growth and expansion. While Mars is only here until early September, with Jupiter here until June 2025, what he can inject will have an impact on the coming year. As has been the case with every planet returning to your income sector this year, a friendly aspect to Pluto in your career sector and to the South Node in your work sector is giving income potential the professional support it needs. Meanwhile, the Sun, Venus and Mercury all start the month in your communication sector, just as Saturn and Neptune are turning retrograde in your friendship sector. A friendly aspect before each leave will lock in the support that is not only keeping the communication lines open but will make it easier to give the past and unsaid words a voice. In the meantime, while the Sun won’t leave and return to your home and family sector until 21st July, Mercury’s return on 3rd July will get the ball rolling.

TAURUS MONTHLY HOROSCOPE - LOVE
July 2024

While so far this year there is been no planetary activity in your romantic sector in the technical sense and there rarely is at this time of year, you have had the next best thing in the form of the asteroid Juno, queen of commitment who returned in October 2023 for what is normally a three month visit. Juno not only returned with Venus, the planet of love but after she had been held up and delayed from returning due to a retrograde phase. Just days after Venus returned ready to make up for lost time, Juno returned with the resolve to make matters of the heart a priority and due to a retrograde phase early in the year, she never left. Juno is back in direct motion and will finally leave next month, but not until 15th August and with Venus coming full circle on 5th August, it will be to find that things never went off the boil. However, Juno won’t be on her own until then, with Mercury’s return on 26th July marking the return of the planets that can make things happen. Mercury will not only spend 14 to 15 days here and in that time, he will work to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page. However, a retrograde turn early next month will see him retrograde back out, only to return in September. Together with the Sun and Venus, this will keep your romantic sector active through to the end of September. While Juno has kept the engine running, it is Mercury’s return on 26th July and Venus’ return in early August that will see the love gods put their foot on the gas. Until then, the Moon’s return to your romantic sector from 10th July to 12th July will make these some of the most romantically charged days of the month. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity in your relationship sector, the Moon’s return from 15th July to 17th July will be a valuable chance to check in and become more emotionally and intuitively engaged. While Venus will leave your communication sector on 12th July, she will be working until then to give your heart and your relationships a voice.

TAURUS MONTHLY HOROSCOPE - MONEY
July 2024

Since the Sun, Venus and Mercury left your income sector last week, Jupiter is not only on his own, but the Moon is yet to make its first visit where it will just be picking up on the planet of luck and expansion’s influence. Jupiter returned in May to begin what he will be working to make your biggest year for income growth and expansion in over a decade, but he has until June 2025 to do it. From the start, a friendly aspect to Pluto in your career sector and the support of the South Node in your work sector has made this a package deal. The South Node is in your work sector for the rest of the year and apart from an 11 week break later in the year, Pluto is in your career sector until 2044, providing more than enough professional support. By the time you move into July, the Sun has only been gone for 10 days and Venus and Mercury for two weeks, something that should have brought all planetary activity on the income front to an end. Instead, this leaves you more aware, motivated and with Mercury’s smart head for money as the focus shifted to Jupiter and his long game. Jupiter should be on his own until the Sun returns in May 2025 to help guide things home and he will be when the Moon moves through from 3rd July to 5th July. This is something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger, but as the first visit while Jupiter is on his own, this will give you a better read on his influence. However, by the time the Moon comes full circle on 30th July, Jupiter will no longer be on his own, with Mars’ return on 21st July a game changer. It has been two years since the warrior planet of the cosmos was last here and this will be his first encounter with Jupiter here since 2023. This will bring together Mars’ drive to see you fight for what you deserve and Jupiter’s quest for income growth and expansion, with the planets of war and luck working as a formidable team through to September. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity on the other side of the financial fence, the Moon’s return to your financial sector from 17th July to 19th July will be a valuable chance to check in on money matters.
