Saturn crosses the Mid-heaven on the 23rd and enters your 10th house of career. This transit is basically good for the career and it indicates career-related travel. The demands of your career are strong and you must succeed by sheer merit – but you will succeed. Saturn is usually a challenging planet, but in your chart he is more benevolent. He is the ruler of your 9th house, which is always a beneficent house. You might be called on to mentor others these days and this mentoring will be helpful to you. Educational opportunities related to the career will come to you, and you should take them.
There is more good news in the career. Venus, the ruler of your Horoscope, moves into your own sign on the 5th and travels with Uranus, your career planet, from the 6th to the 9th. This indicates career opportunity and elevation. A new career opportunity can appear – and suddenly.
Health is good this month. There is only one long-term planet, Saturn, in stressful alignment with you, and only from the 23rd onwards. Indeed, most of you won’t feel this too much; only those born early in the sign of Taurus (April 20–21) will feel this strongly. But you can take steps to enhance your health with scalp massage, face massage and exercise until the 5th and through neck and throat massage from the 5th onwards. Your state of health always affects your personal appearance, but after the 5th even more so. You should be looking good this period.
Your dream life seems very active this month – especially on the 8th and 9th. Pay attention to your dreams as they have important information for you.
Finances remain complicated this month until the 10th. Mercury is not only travelling backwards, but he changes signs twice. He begins the month in your 11th house, moves back into your 10th house on the 4th and then returns to your 11th house on the 16th. Financial intuition needs verification until the 4th, but after the 16th it seems very reliable. Avoid major purchases or investments until after the 10th, when your financial judgement becomes more reliable. Your financial planet in your 11th house is a positive for earnings: it is a beneficent house where fondest hopes and wishes come to pass. So this should be a prosperous month. It starts off slowly but picks up steam after the 11th. Friends seem helpful in finances. You could be buying high-tech equipment or gadgetry too. Being involved with groups and professional or trade organizations will also help the bottom line.
Love seems happy this month. Jupiter will be travelling with your love planet, Pluto, all month. This brings romantic meetings for singles – and highly erotic ones.

The month ahead is happy and prosperous – enjoy. Jupiter is still travelling with your love planet all this month, indicating happiness in love. This is in spite of your 7th house being empty! All of you seem more sexually active these days, whether you are in a relationship or single. Whatever your age or stage in life, the libido is stronger than usual.
On the 19th the Sun enters your own sign. The Eastern sector of self is the strongest sector of the Horoscope this month. This means the planetary power moves towards you rather than away from you. You are in a strong period of personal independence and can have things your own way. You’re less dependent on others and their opinions. Be respectful of others but do things your way. Your way is best these days.
The Sun’s move into your sign initiates one of your yearly personal pleasure peaks. Give the body the pleasures it desires. It is a good time for getting the body and image into the shape that you want. Family seems very devoted to you and they are helping your career. A family member or family connection has news of a good career opportunity or advice for you – most probably between the 24th and 26th.
Finances are good. Mercury is now moving forward, and speedily – he goes through three signs and houses of your chart this month. This indicates confidence and fast financial progress. Your financial intuition is still very strong until the 27th. The dream life – still active – holds important financial information for you, as do psychics, astrologers, tarot readers and other spiritual channels. You might have to work harder for earnings from the 11th to the 27th but they will come. On the 27th Mercury crosses your Ascendant and enters your own house. This is an especially prosperous period as it brings windfalls and expensive clothing or accessories to you. Financial opportunities will seek you out. Your ruling planet Venus will move into your 2nd money house on the 3rd and will spend the rest of the month there. This shows personal involvement – personal focus – on finance and tends to prosperity. You spend on yourself and take on the image of wealth. Personal appearance and overall presentation are ultra-important financially.
Mars spends the month in your 10th house of career, along with Saturn. This shows a need for aggressiveness – a need to do battle with competitors – a need to display courage in career matters.

Though there are now two planets in stressful alignment with you, health is basically good. And after the 13th, as Mars leaves his stressful aspect, health will be even better. You can enhance it further in the ways described in the yearly report, and also with arm and shoulder massage. Breathing exercises are beneficial too – air has a healing influence this month. Get out on a windy day and let the wind blow all over you. Or drive out of the city with the windows open and let the in-rushing air massage you. Very invigorating.
Venus (your health and work planet as well as the ruler of your Horoscope) will spend the month ‘out of bounds’, thus you are venturing outside your normal sphere. This is the situation in health matters too – there are no answers in your normal circles so you need to seek outside them. Sometimes the job you’re in (or the job you seek) pulls you outside your normal boundaries.
Mercury, your financial planet, will also be ‘out of bounds’ from the 17th onwards. So you are thinking outside the box financially too. Financial opportunities occur outside your normal parameters. Children and children figures in your life are also going outside their normal boundaries this period.
Jupiter is still travelling with your love planet all month. Generally this is a great signal for love and romance, only Pluto has been retrograde since April 25 and Jupiter will also begin to go backwards on the 14th. So love is there, but important love decisions shouldn’t be taken just now. There’s no need to rush things. Let love develop as it will.
The month ahead is prosperous. Venus spends the entire month in your money house, your financial planet enters there on the 12th and the Sun moves in on the 20th and you begin a yearly financial peak. From the 20th to the 29th your money house is the strongest house in your Horoscope. The Sun in the 2nd house indicates good family support and financial opportunities that come from family connections. Mercury in the money house shows that the money people in your life are supportive and providing opportunity. Venus’s presence there indicates your personal involvement and focus. It shows spending on yourself and perhaps on health gadgets and products.
The night side of your Horoscope is the strongest it will ever be this year. The day side is still stronger though, and thus the career and outer activities are still most important. But you can shift some attention to your home, family and emotional life – not a whole lot, but some.

On one level the month ahead is very eventful. Two eclipses show change and disruption. On another level the month ahead is non-eventful as retrograde activity reaches its peak for the year. (It will reach the same peak again in September.) Overall, changes and disruptions are likely but with a delayed reaction.
The lunar eclipse of the 5th, the second of four that we will have, occurs in your 8th house and causes important financial changes for the spouse, partner or current love. It can bring encounters – generally psychological-type encounters – with death. Sometimes there are near-death kinds of experiences; sometimes there are deaths of people you know; sometimes there are dreams of death. The cosmos is urging you to confront death and get a better understanding of it. Sometimes surgery is recommended – but you seem healthy and you should get a second opinion. Siblings and sibling figures are impacted here. They can have health scares or changes in their employment. There can be dramas in the lives of neighbours too. Cars and communication equipment get tested and might need repair or replacement. It would be wise to drive more carefully, more defensively.
This eclipse is powerful because it has an impact on other planets in your chart – Mars and Venus. The effect on Venus can bring a redefinition of your self, your self-concept and the overall presentation that you make to others. This will go on for a few months. You’ll dress differently, and probably change your hairstyle and your overall image. It can bring health scares (probably no more than scares) and upheavals at work or dramas in the lives of co-workers or employees. The impact of the eclipse on Mars indicates changes in your spiritual life – in your attitudes, practice, teachings and teachers. There are shakeups in spiritual or charitable organizations that you’re involved with and dramas in the lives of gurus or spiritual guides. Take it nice and easy this eclipse period. Avoid stressful activities – there’s no need to tempt the fates.
The solar eclipse of the 21st occurs in your 3rd house and thus again affects siblings and sibling figures. It brings important financial changes and a need to redefine themselves – their image and presentation to the world. This can be the case with neighbours too. Students below college level are affected by both eclipses, and there are probably changes in educational plans or disruptions at school. Again, cars and communication equipment get tested, and it will be a good idea to drive carefully over this period.

Your siblings and sibling figures in your life, neighbours, cars and communication equipment can’t seem to catch a break. They were pounded and tested last month and it just keeps going on. Another lunar eclipse on the 5th hits these exact same areas. This month’s occurs in your 9th house. Thus it not only affects students below college level (as last month’s eclipses did) but college-level students too. There are changes in educational plans and disruptions at school. If you are involved in legal issues they will take a dramatic turn one way or another – they will move forward.
Mercury, Jupiter and Mars are marginally affected by this eclipse. Thus there can be some minor financial disruption, more change in spiritual or charitable organizations you’re involved with, more dramas in the lives of gurus and guru figures, and more psychological confrontations with death.
Saturn moves away from his stressful aspect with you on July 1. Health, which has been good all year, gets even better – and it will be still be good even after the 23rd when the Sun makes a stressful aspect with you. True, it is not one of your best health periods, but nothing serious seems to be happening there. You can enhance your health even further through arm and shoulder massage. Shoulder massage will also help the neck, which is always important for Taureans.
