Venus and Uranus join at the end of Taurus, their last rendezvous in the sign for 80 years. With Uranus also poised to leave Taurus, a seven-year chapter comes to an end, a chapter that has shaken our values and reinvented our relationship with the material world.
The first four signs of the zodiac deal with life at its most basic and rudimentary level. In Aries, for example, we explore our individuality and agency. In Taurus, we explore our basic material needs and securities — a roof over our heads, food in the kitchen, money in the bank, our feelings of safety and stability. Of course, there is physical pleasure to be found in Taurus, but we must first tend to the basics.
When Venus is in Taurus, we have an opportunity to strengthen our relationship with the energy of Taurus. Perhaps we take time to survey the resources we have available to us. Or we make investments that shore up our material lives. We’re more aware of our senses as well as sensuality.
That said, over the last seven years, there’s been a planet residing in Taurus that runs counter to Taurus’s need for stability and security. Uranus first entered Taurus in May 2018, retrograding out in November 2018, and returning again in March 2019 where it has remained since.
Taurus is a fixed sign, meaning it’s a sign that doesn’t want change because change is at odds with the sign’s instinct to protect life. Uranus, on the other hand, is an evolutionary planet, which is trying to get Taurus to grow and evolve by any means possible. All we have to do is look back on our lives in 2018 and 2019 and see major shifts. (Read Uranus in Taurus: Sign by Sign to review what area of your life has had to shift.)
So, today’s Venus-Uranus conjunction at 29 Taurus is a last hurrah, a coda on a chapter of our lives that seen a lot change.
On Saturday, April 25, Uranus finally leaves Taurus, not to return in our lifetime, and we step into a new seven-year cycle with Uranus in Gemini. (Read Uranus in Gemini: Sign by Sign.)
