Because the Sun has returned to Taurus, you are about to experience a time of power and renewal that is heading your way. Since the energy of Taurus, which is known for being stable and rooted, is being brought out and enhanced at this time, it is time for you to shine. Taurus is a sign that is regarded to be grounded and solid. A better sense of connection to your core ideas, your own self, and the things that offer you serenity and stability is something that you could experience as a result of this. You will be urged to strengthen your innate patience and endurance, as well as your capacity to find joy in the seemingly small things of life that are still significant, as a result of this transit. In most cases, at this time, your attention shifts to the things that are actually essential to you, such as the accomplishment of your own personal goals, the satisfaction of your comfort, and the guarantee of your safety. There is no better time than the present to strengthen the foundations of your personal life, your professional life, or your financial circumstances. During the time that the Sun is in your sign, it acts as a reminder that adhering to a plan is crucial to attaining success over the long term, and it motivates you to keep working toward reaching the goals that you have set for yourself. If you design things in a manner that is both planned and cautious, there is a greater likelihood that you will achieve success. Because of this, rather of only beginning change, you will be able to turn your goals into something that is substantial and will last for a long time.
Moon in Pisces
The Moon in Pisces provides a one-of-a-kind combination of intelligence and intuition, as well as reason and feeling, for those born under the sign of Gemini. Solar signs that are Gemini are the ones that exhibit this unusual combination. This is due to the fact that our reasoning has an effect on the feelings that we experience. If you have a Gemini temperament, it indicates that you are naturally curious, adaptable, and able to communicate with other people in a productive manner. You have a great desire to learn new things and participate in a broad variety of activities, in addition to being knowledgeable and quick-witted. You also have a powerful intelligence. Individuals who had a moon in the sign of Pisces, on the other hand, have reported experiencing a change in their most private emotions or condition. The composition is very lovely, dreamy, and delicate all at the same time. The combination of these two factors may give you the impression that you are being drawn inward due to the fact that they are acting together. Your Pisces Moon is more inclined to rely on instinct and intuition, despite the fact that your Gemini brain enjoys the intellectual challenge of attempting to find solutions to issues. When you consider the fact that your sensations are likely to be very variable, it may be challenging to realize how you are experiencing them. In addition to this, it is possible that they are able to perceive the emotions that other individuals are experiencing. In spite of the fact that you give off the impression of being a social butterfly, under the surface you are a sensitive person who possesses a vivid imagination.
Mercury in Gemini
When the earthy-patient Taurus sun’s mind meets the quick-witted, inquisitive quality of Mercury in Gemini you get a person steeped in such sensibleness with an equally surprising core of intellect and communication. On the surface, you have a placid, analytical approach and a strong view that things should be steady; yet underneath there's another quick-moving flighty world. This interaction has a wonderful synergy to it. Your Taurus sun is hungry for comfort and a straight, firm road. But your Mercury in Gemini leads you to that world of logic and ideas, toward a search for some more communicative truth. So you can not only create a safe life, but let your self express with more depth and consciousness. You can be a grounding, patient presence one moment and then zipping around as a whirlwind of intellectual energy the next. The true magic of this combination is when you can combine your heart with your head. Your Taurus’s pragmatism gets a deep sense of meaning and purpose from your Gemini mind, who also sees clearly. “It says that you are not just a stabilizing force, but a dynamic one that wields and shapes words in ways that inspirit others and bring enduring change.” Your patient strength is armed with a moral compass due to the Gemini's mental agility - and you strengthen your powers for justice and truth.
Venus in Aries
With the stolid, steady-Taurus sun deeply entrenched in Venus (the heart) in bold, aggressive Aries, it means those born under this planetary placement have a “love-style” that is both dynamic and passionate as well as a source of change. Your surface is a comfort-seeker, as it searches for stability in all things, while you live out a world of relationships characterized by fiery passion and bold act on. This is a tension that makes for an irresistably beautiful dynamic. Your Taurus sun is trying to build a secure existence, and a solid platform for a partner. But your Venus in Aries drags you into a realm of wild connections, springily love and a need to be (or find) the hero. This enables you to experience not just the sensual depth of human connection, but express your affection with boldness and bravery, protectively…never passively. The true power of this combo is to be able to love with soft strokes, and a ruthless heart. Your Aries heart gives your Taurus’s down-to-earth nature a compelling mission, and you’re that daring advocate for the underdog and mediator who offers limitless support without becoming emotionally smothering. You are attracted to relationships that have a feeling of adventure, with just the right touch of fearlessness – shared passions and an iron-clad loyalty bond you’re in for life.
Mars in Cancer
As the grounded and patient Taurus sun links up with the nurturing emotional realm of Mars in Cancer, your energy this week is a gorgeous mix of practical comfort and protective instinct. Your external self craves a secure and comfortable existence while your world of intuition knows that life for you is about emotional security, belonging and family nurturing you to reach your goals. This is a beautiful tension, an interesting pull. With your Taurus sun, you really want to construct a life that is secure and comfortable. But your Mars in Cancer wants to draw you into a world of emotional security, pragmatic ambition and ceaseless striving after that comfortable, safety-blanket life. Which means you will be able to experience not just the sexual meditation of human bonding, but the way in which you can release your energy in a supremely reliable, protective and devoted manner.… It’s your intuition, and the power I believe in this partnership is that you will be able do something about that – we will be able to create a quiet drive inside of you. Your Taurus's groundedness has a purpose and foundation in your Cancer drive. You are attracted to the kind of partnerships that feel expansive and aspirational, grounded in shared spiritual ideals and a fierce commitment. Your energy flourishes with respect for each other and a never-ending sense of discovery.
Jupiter in Pisces
With the down-to-earth, grounded Taurus sun encountering its luck and expansion in Jupiter located in the imaginative, empathetic landscapes of Pisces; your already natural sense of growth will filter through a lens pierced with endless compassion and unflinching spirituality. But deep down within, your pleasure principle is motivated by a strong desire for empathy and imagination along with an expansive spiritual approach to growth. This tension makes for a thrilling and beautiful pull. Your Taurus sun is in the mood to create a safe, cozy life for itself. But your Jupiter in Pisces draws you toward a world of deep passion, transforming missions and everlasting quests to reach the very core of things. And in doing so, you can really feel that sensual lingerie at the depths of human connection and unrestrained expression of a good quality very trustworthy protective faithful man. The real strength of this pairing is in your ability to follow your intuition, but not become swept away by a tidal wave of emotions or feel that things will never turn out the way you want them to. Your Taurus's stabilizing nature is given depth and purpose by your fishy drive. You’re attracted to relationships that feel expansive and optimistic, based on shared spiritual beliefs and a stubborn commitment. You flourish in an environment of reciprocal respect and continuous exploration.
Saturn in Cancer
When your could be stubborn and hypersensitive Taurus sun picks up its greatest life lesson from the emotional, nurturing circuit of Saturn in Cancer, it is accustomed to needing something steady to count upon through the trials and tribulations of early childhood. In all that you do, your physical self looks for comfort and security, whilst something stronger inside of you is motivated by a strong emotional stability and care-giving attitude to life with a bold, brave style in which you'll develop many things in it. This set-up makes for a beautiful and provocative tug. Your Taurus sun desires to construct a safe life and locate a source of ease, respite and safety. But your Saturn in Cancer drags you toward a world of real goals and practical action, constantly trawling through the heart of everything. This will let you not only experience the depths of sensual human connection, but also put your energy into a mode that is powerfully consistent, reliable and loyal. The secret of this combo is that you have a killer instinct to get things done and make it happen with a silent drive. You drive, Cancer, gives your Taurus's deep sense of purpose and ground a touch of passion. You’re attracted to relationships that are vast and full of promise, based on common spiritual principles and a deep commitment. Your sparks fly in a world of mutual flattery and perpetual surprise.
Uranus in Libra
A person with their sun in Taurus and Uranus in Libra is like a wise farmer who has to turn into a revolutionary visionary. Your powerful instincts work here to establish a secure, predictable existence dedicated to both material comfort and security. But the great lesson of your life, brought to you courtesy of Uranus, is in creating a balance and structure — and powerful transformation — in the relationship department. This aspect forms a tug of war between your down-to-earth, grounded nature and the deep longing for objective analysis. Your Taurus sun desires to be the immobile provider, the unwavering partner who thrives in security. But your Uranus in Libra is here to show you that real safety comes from making intentional space for hidden truths in relationship. It makes you stand up for what’s right, even when it feels uncomfortable, and articulate clear boundaries so that you can give to others without losing yourself. The trick is to traffic in both a confidence of building and a hardheadedness about justice. The real magic of this placement is that it helps change your chaotic practical instincts into an organized visible force for good. You can indeed be a quiet hero, a loud presence who feels harmonious in your social circles and beyond. It’s your job to remain persistent and create relation-ships and communities based upon mutual respect and deep trust. You have an unparalleled ability to handle complicated emotional terrain well past your breaking point of what you tolerate, for that matter!
Neptune in Sagittarius
The Taurus Sun sign is stable, patient, and loves comfort and tangible pleasures. Taurus necessarily requires a routine, secure environment associated with the beauty of the material world. In Sagittarius, Neptune combines groundedness with a sense of adventure, optimism, and philosophical curiosity. While residing in Sagittarius, Neptune prompts an exploration of ideas and ways to find inspiration behind everyday life. General Taurus practicality and vision are combined with Sagittarius’s Neptunian thirst for understanding. They are guided by the need for comfort and want to get out of their comfortable position to see a spiritual world far beyond practiced philosophy. They may be attracted to travel, learning challenging topics, or teaching; their creativity will manifest itself through aspects of life that will open new frontiers that they may never reach before . The Taurus Sun and Neptune combination in Sagittarius is a perfect balance between the need for security and intellectual, spiritual ambition. The two equalities bring together a down-to-earth spirit who wants to see the world, experience new things in real-time, and continue to do sustainable things. Civilian qualities are combined with the distant echoes of the greater whole, allowing them to be patient, wise, and strong in the face of new and challenging situations.
Pluto in Libra
Pluto in Libra is passing through your 6th house of work, health and daily routine Taurus. This transit doesn’t seem very glamorous at first, but it’s one of the most life-changing since it restructures the foundation of your everyday life. On the job, Pluto might make your workplace very intense. Internal power plays with coworkers, changes in job duties or destruction of old systems can come up. If you’ve been caught in a role that drains you, expect profound changes. This could be your opportunity to connect what you do every day with something meaningful, rather than just “stable.” The focus on health and wellness is clear as well. Those former bad habits — bad diet, lack of rest, treating your body poorly — may begin to take their toll. The goal here isn’t to punish you, but rather to help you figure out how you can rebuild stronger, healthier routines. Call it a complete life detox, something that makes you stronger and more energized. Even your relationship to service changes. You will be asked to think, not just about what you do every day, but why you do it. By clearing out what matters less, you open up room for a rhythm each day that actually charges you. By the time Pluto departs Libra, Taurus, you'll be re-inventing yourself in terms of work and health. Your habits are not only going to save yourself, they’re also going to feed the best parts of you.

Which famous people were born May 17? On May 17, remarkable celebrities like were born:
Love will always find its way into your life, just not exactly in the format you're hoping for. But that’s okay too. Everybody has a different way of expressing their feelings and emotions. Some resort to poetry and prose, while others believe that actions speak louder than words. What makes you special is that you hold space for people to be exactly who they are without having to don the many masks they have to in order to survive in the outside world.
This is a good day to cocoon at home or be by yourself in a private place because you need refuge and comfort from the demands of your busy world. Memories of your childhood might bubble to the surface of your mind.
Today you feel sympathetic to someone in the family. You want to help them or make their life easier. Perhaps you can encourage them? Whatever the case, this is the perfect day to reach out and do what you can. Kindness is the most important thing.
Today can be a rollercoaster of emotions, but don't let it get you down! Find something that puts a smile on your face, and let it be a distraction from any negative thoughts.
Take time to appreciate the abundance around you today! You have access to so many ideas, plans, and resources — keep them organized so they're easily accessible when the time is right. Rejoice in your good fortune and be thankful for it!
Lucky you! Today you will explore the arts, especially in a hands-on way. You might be more involved in sports and activities with kids. Romance will flourish! Oh yes.
Don't lose a positive attitude: life is so beautiful that there is no reason for sadness and gloom. Most likely, you are moving in the right direction, even minor troubles and setbacks are for the better.
Communication is a key part of the day. You will find that if you go with the flow, you will land exactly where you need to be, even if it's not quite the destination you expected. Let the universe guide you.
Focus on the important things in life: your family and your relationships with them. Re-align your priorities and remind yourself that, in the end, it's people that matter, not material possessions. Make time for the people who matter and you'll find the perspective you've been missing.
This is a mildly accident-prone day so pay attention to everything you say and do. You might also be distracted because you have some way out ideas today. You are thinking outside of the box and living in a parallel universe so to speak.
Today, your creativity will be your strongest asset. Embrace the challenge of balancing your commitments and tasks. Networking could open new doors, and your relationships with loved ones will be your foundation.
Be careful and don’t say something to a boss or parent that you will later regret because it’s easy to do this today. A sudden and passionate force might overtake you and you could blow your cool. But what’s the upside? You might end up with egg on your face. (Ketchup helps.)
