5 Things Every Taurus Needs for Self-Care This Season

Prepare for a shift! From April 20 to May 21, the sun will travel through grounded and passionate Taurus. The season of Taurus—a sign ruled by Venus (the planet of love, beauty, and money)—will have you feeling more peaceful and driven to go after the things you value most. For that reason, this season inevitably bolsters our willpower, relationships, and supports our efforts to nail down success and security.

What Characterizes Taurus Season?

In contrast to the lightning-fast pace of Aries season, Taurus season encourages an appreciation of the present and the natural flow of the Universe. Because of this, Taurus season tends to be harmonious, earthy, relationship-oriented, and (to be fair) a bit stubborn. You may find yourself spending more time in nature or lazing around on a weekend morning, just because you feel like it. It’s also common to resist progressing professional projects, relationships, or health routines—unless they’re on your own time, of course.

What Taurus People Should Expect This Season

For those born under Taurus, your 2019 season will be marked by the double-retrogrades of two big planets: transformation-bringing Pluto and taskmaster Saturn.

On April 24, Pluto, which oversees our subconscious, renewal, and rebirth, turns backward until October 3, stirring you to take a mirror to deep-rooted psychological wounds, especially tied to power and desire.

Then, on April 29, Saturn, which rules discipline, rules, regulations, and challenging lessons, moves backward until September 17, urging you to reflect on personal disappointments, boundaries, what has held you back from accomplishing your greatest aspirations.

Both the Pluto and Saturn retrograde will have you doing some soul-searching around themes of higher learning, your personal belief system, and broadening your horizons, as the shift is occurring in your ninth house.

Self-Care Items to Help You Get Through Taurus Season

Facing the planetary ebb and flow of this season will be intense, Taurus, but you’ve got this. We’ve gathered a few items to help you get through this period of self-reflection and goal-meeting. (To be honest, you may still benefit from these items during this year’s Taurus season, even if you weren’t born with your sun in the fixed earth sign.)
