Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac, following Aries, and preceding Gemini, Cancer, and so on. 2024 is an important year, especially until almost the end of May, due to the influence of Jupiter transiting Taurus for the first time in 12 years.
Jupiter's transit in Taurus began on the 16th of May 2023, and as of February 2024, it continues to progress towards another significant planet, Uranus. Uranus has been in Taurus since 2018, signifying potential drastic and very important changes. Some of these changes may still need to be realized and are expected to culminate when Jupiter reaches the position of Uranus on the 21st of April 2024. This conjunction is a rare event, symbolizing evolution, progress, and success due to change.
Pluto remains in Capricorn until the 20th of January 2024. During its long transit in Capricorn starting from 2008, it has exerted a physiologically and psychologically beneficial influence on Taurus. However, Pluto will move into Aquarius from the 20th of January until the 2nd of September 2024 before retrogressing back into Capricorn. It will finally settle in Aquarius on the 20th of November 2024 for a 20-year period, requiring Taurus to accept and manage a deeper type of transformation.
Neptune continues its transit in Pisces, where it has been since 2012, positively influencing Taurus’ intuition, inspiration, and social relationships. This artistic and spiritual boost will be balanced by Saturn, which entered Pisces on the 7th of March 2023, turning dreams and ideals into achievable projects through rational and practical efforts.
Chiron remains in Aries, emphasizing the need for Taurus to focus on health – not just physiological but also psychological, professional, financial, and so on. This focus will continue until Chiron moves into Taurus in 2026.
The North Lunar Node is in Aries and the South Lunar Node is in Libra. This time signifies a transition from past routines tied to work and health towards better health and life quality, guided by the realization of what does not serve anymore and adjusting accordingly.
From the 4th of January 2024 until mid-February, Mars will be in Capricorn. It enhances Taurus' strength, decision-making abilities, and enterprising spirit. When Mars conjuncts Pluto on the 16th of February while Pluto is in Aquarius, it signifies a need for caution due to potential conflicts and radical actions. This period demands careful handling to avoid mishaps.
Mars enters Aquarius on the 13th of February, staying until the 23rd of February. This period is marked by a discordant relationship with Taurus, suggesting the need for care in decisions and actions, especially around the Pluto conjunction on the 16th of February, to avoid conflicts and accidents.
February 2024 is a month that demands strategic planning and mindful actions for those born under the sign of Taurus. The guidance of Jupiter, Uranus, Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, Chiron, and the Lunar Nodes collectively indicate significant transformations. They provide both opportunities for growth and warnings against hasty, radical decisions. Proper utilization of this astrological wisdom can enhance Taurus' journey towards a fruitful and harmonious year ahead.
