From March 16th to April 10th, the planet of love and finances, Venus, is coming home to one of its home signs, Taurus. Venus feels comfortable in Taurus because it resonates with the grounded, earthy nature of building foundations, getting our finances together, and taking things slow when it comes to love and romance. These next four weeks have us wanting security in love and finances with a lot of physical pleasure thrown in for good measure. We just have to be careful about being overly possessive, stubborn, and hedonistic.
Venus Comes Home To Taurus
In astrology, Venus is the planetary ruler of both Taurus and Libra. Venus’s association with Taurus represents the grounded expression of Venus energy through the five senses. Since Venus is all about what is pleasurable and nice, this Venus in Taurus transit definitely influences the desire to indulge in the finer things in life. Luckily, the grounded energy of Taurus reminds us that these sensual indulgences are only possible if we have the finances to do so. In some cases, there will be those who do not want to put in the work, so they will seek out people who have resources and funds so that they can indulge their materialistic wants. Nevertheless, Venus in Taurus provides a general understanding of what we have to do practically to obtain secure relationships and finances.
Over the next four weeks, we are compelled to get our money and relationships on solid ground with Venus in Taurus. As the first earth sign, Taurus is all about laying down strong foundations, so over the next three weeks it is important to ask ourselves whether our relationships and finances are on a good foundation. This is an excellent time to review our finances and determine what is needed to secure the income required so that we can live a comfortable, pleasurable life.
With relationships, it’s important to assess whether our partners and romantic prospects are long-term relationship material. Venus in Taurus seeks a partner with whom they can build a solid, steady, predictable life. So, those who have been dealing with people who are flaky and noncommittal will find that this Venus in Taurus transit provides clarity about what is desired for a commitment that offers the security desired.
Only The Stable & Secure Need Apply
When it comes to relationships, Venus in Taurus is only interested in what is stable and secure. Those who are balanced will require this stability and security from themselves and others as there is a desire to ultimately experience mutual security within a relationship where both partners can be relied upon to come to the table with resources and assets. Venus in Taurus energy wants to settle down and have a comfortable stable life, and it’s hard to do this when dealing with people who aren’t currently or on the path to financial stability. This transit gives us the space to consider our own financial positions as well as those of the people we would like to couple with.
Physical Expressions Of Love
Everyone has a love language, and for the Venus in Taurus experience, it would definitely be physical expressions of love. This can involve being touched and receiving gifts as a token of affection. This is an excellent time to explore touch with a special partner and give and receive physical items and gifts. For those who are not used to receiving, this Venus in Taurus transit can open you up to allowing others to love on you physically.
When Venus Meets Juno
This Venus in Taurus transit has a special twist because Venus will be meeting up with the transiting asteroid Juno in the sign of Taurus. This combination of Venus and Juno in Taurus combines the desire to be secure and stable in relationships and finances with the energy of being in a committed long-term relationship and/or marriage. The Venus/Juno combination in Taurus is a great combination for actually settling down in a solid, secure relationship. Whether this ends energy creates engagements that actually lead to marriage will depend on personal astrological energies. If there was ever a time to combine the love and finances of Venus with the solidity of a long-term partnership and marriage of Juno, then this Venus-Juno conjunction in Taurus is the energy to create partnerships that stick for the long haul.
Some Venus in Taurus Precautions
With every astrological transit, there is always something to take note of. The following are some precautions for the Venus in Taurus transit.
Taurus energy can be quite possessive, and given that this transit involves Venus, this can show up as being possessive over finances and love. There could be a tendency to act as if our partners are actually possessions that we own. When it comes to money, we may not want to part with it easily, especially because we don’t want to part with our money for frivolous reasons.
It is important to note that Venus also governs our values, so we could be quite stubborn when it comes to personal values and unwilling to make value shifts…even if it would be a good idea to change. Here’s the thing about possession…it is rooted in fear of loss. Venus in Taurus offers the understanding that when we are truly secure we don’t feel threatened that our partners, money, and even values will be taken away from us. Also, no one or nothing can possess another person. People are not things, and this is an important lesson of Venus in Taurus.
Partnering For Money & Security
Due to the desire to be financially secure, there is the potential for some to partner for money and security. Under ideal conditions, Venus in Taurus is deeply focused on building up the self no matter how long it takes, Venus in Taurus understands that as long as they continue to work on their finances and take things slow when it comes to relationships, eventually, they will have a pleasant life that they desire.
However, there are some people who simply do not want to work for themselves in any capacity. This is the lazy, negative side of Taurus that wants a life of pleasure and on easy street with no effort. So, what happens when the good life is desired, but there appears to be resistance to practical work? Such individuals end up partnering with those who already have the money and resources that are desired. This can lead to what some refer to as “gold-digging” to gain the good life through someone else’s efforts, resources, and money.
For those who choose to go this route to gain a pleasurable life, it is important to consider whether securing finances is more important than other aspects of a relationship such as genuine love and common interests. Ideally, such individuals would be able to get all of their Venus wants and desires from a specific person that also happens to be financially secure. However, it is important to note that this is not always possible, so consider carefully what one is willing to forgo in order to gain financial security through a partner.
The Trap Of Ruts & Stubbornness
Finally, while Venus in Taurus tenacity is quite admirable, it can also lead to stagnation. Because Taurus is a fixed earth sign, once this energy is set on something change is not likely. This is understandable given that is the purpose of Taurus to build a solid foundation in the physical realm. Venus in Taurus needs to be fixed to ensure stability and security in love and finances.
However, Venus in Taurus can create tunnel vision where we are so set on doing things our way in love and finances that we don’t give ourselves room to consider anything new. It is important to consider how we can open ourselves to new experiences in love and money without feeling as if we are compromising our current financial and relationship stability. Although the new may feel threatening, it could provide insights that could potentially improve our relationships and finances.
Ultimately, the Venus in Taurus transit presents us with the opportunity to obtain stability and security in love and finances. Whether we are finally deciding to settle down in a committed relationship or choosing to lead a more financially stable life, when Venus comes home to Taurus, we get to feel good about the practical, strong foundations of love and money.
