Taurus (April 20 – May 20):
I heard owls hooting outside my window tonight as I started your horoscope. Is it a sign? In my world, everything is a sign. Owls represent wisdom, the ability to see the light in the darkness. This month's astrology urges you to discover what's hidden. See in new ways, expanding your perception. With several planets going retrograde, you're deepening awareness and fine-tuning your intuitive sensibilities. The Full Moon on August 1 helps with discernment.
You might feel a strong pull to gather with family members and spend more time relaxing at home. It could be an excellent time to start a home building or renovation project. Can your house be more like a sanctuary? Set intentions for the ideal, and work toward it with your current plans. On August 23, the Sun enters Virgo and encourages discipline for home-related projects. Decisions can be more evident at the end of the month.
A new routine begins with the Sun's ingress into Virgo on August 23. Your back-to-school to-do list might be a little ambitious. Reevaluate and see what you can postpone for a later date. These times can amplify perfectionistic tendencies. Creative expression mediates rigidity. Dance, make art, meditate, vacation, or do something else to help release stress.
Mercury in Virgo stations retrograde on August 23, and this influence could inspire the final touches on a creative project. You might find the energy to finish a project on the back burner. You may want to write, paint, or do something else to express yourself. Indulge that desire, especially on August 30, when the Pisces Full Moon carries you into an altered state of consciousness.
