Introduction

In 2019, Venus travels through Taurus from May 15 until June 8. In the weeks before that, Venus was in Aries. In the weeks immediately after, it will be in Gemini. Check your astrological calendar for more information including where Venus may be at the moment.

Venus transits show your changing values as you work with your relationships and income sources ... and as your needs from both evolve. Venus aspects show how you adjust yourself to the demands of a partnership ... or insist that it change to suit you.

They also show how channels of support fluctuate and adapt ... and how your way of handling assets / making purchases / regulating your financial choices are affected by the different experiences and requirements you meet as you navigate life.

Venus aspects are "in effect" for about 8 - 10 days after the aspect forms. In real life, however, you may deal with their concerns -- or see events that correlate with their energy show up even a few days beyond that. Sometimes you need even more distance to appreciate what happened -- what changed. Getting sufficient perspective sometimes takes a while. Keep that in mind as you work with this forecast.

Marking Venus' travels in Taurus
What they mean for your relationships and finances

Venus transiting through Taurus is Venus coming home again. Well, back to one of her homes anyway. Like Mercury, she has two of them. (And when you understand Venus, there's a certain logic to this ownership thing.) Venus rules two signs. One is Taurus; the other is Libra. So, Venus in Taurus is home again. She'll be here about four weeks -- and then she's gone again.

So, what's the deal with Venus in Taurus? Well, after the energized hurry-and-hustle of Venus in Aries, Venus in Taurus can feel like "you've earned a little reward." The urgency eases; the fast tempo slows down.

You're ready to order some drinks and hors d'oeuvres, set a spell ... and watch the rest of the world parade past. "Netflix and chill" -- as long as there are snacks and refreshments -- pretty much describes Venus in Taurus ... perennially.

Don't ask me to move

Venus in Taurus is all about comfort, pleasure and "taking life easy." And if you were running hard during Venus in Aries, you're more than ready to accept this invitation and catch your breath in some comfortable surroundings ... before it's time to head out again into the diverse delights of Venus in Gemini. That'll be here soon enough. Meanwhile, just sit back and b-r-e-a-t-h-e.

Venus in Taurus is interested in -- as I said, comfort, beauty, companionship, relaxation and sensual delights. It is possible the most grounded, physical and earthy combination of all. It may sincerely believe it was born to experience and enjoy the pleasures and experiences of the material world. It certainly acts like it, anyway.

The joys of good livin'

Venus in Taurus wants pleasant companions -- all the better to share the experiences. There's a sincere generosity in this mix that likes to select the evening's menu and music, pick up the bill and feel she gave her friends and loved ones a treat ... payment for what they have given her over the years.

She's not up for "drama" or any kind of excitement. (And you won't be either!) The more she can sit back and savor "the good life" -- the better she likes it. Decadent, maybe ... but honest.

It's all about managing ...

Obviously this kind of "enjoyment" and entertaining takes money -- and Venus in Taurus likes to have plenty of that. Some of your planning and downtime may focus on how to increase your supply sources, how to get the best bargains, how to get what you want with what you have -- or can easily get.

Venus in Taurus does not like to fret about how to pay the bills, how to feel safe (even pampered) or how to get what she wants. She is awfully good at managing her income and assets -- and you could pick up a few points on how to do this more easily, too -- while Venus in Taurus is around.
