Taurus Weekly Horoscope

Follow your leader! Venus, your galactic guardian, is on a four-week tour of Leo and your domestic fourth house, and this week it’ll spin into major angles with two major planets, which will affect your heart, hearth and home. On Tuesday, June 16, it forms a supportive trine to Neptune in your twelfth house (where it’s very comfortable), which might melt some long-standing emotional blocks and open a portal for deep and soulful connection. Regardless of your relationship status, try to be available for what comes your way this week since true intimacy will exert an almost irresistible pull. The next day (Wednesday), the love planet will form its annual opposition to transformational Pluto in your tenth house of professional and public image. This could bring conflicts between your home or love life and your career goals—or a sudden awareness of how much personal power you relinquish when you feel that love and work are locking horns. These back-to-back transits are inviting you to reconsider how you balance openness and boundary enforcement and to truly relish your strongest bonds.

Take your place in the hot seat, Taurus! Starting this Friday, “wounded healer” Chiron returns to your sign for the first time since the 1980s, kicking off a seven-year visitation that will give you repeated opportunities to dive deeply into personal wounds or vulnerability around your body, appearance and your very identity! This is just a three-month sneak preview, though, since Chiron will retrograde back into Aries and your introspective twelfth house for its last hurrah. Between now and September 17, you may find yourself being more self-conscious than in the past, possibly overanalyzing how people are perceiving you or how you look. It’s normal to care about how you come across, but not if it prevents you from being authentic and spontaneous. But this isn’t a bad thing, Bull! It’s actually an opportunity to finally address insecurities or limiting beliefs about your greatness! So when that little self-critical voice pipes up—and it will, alas—try to just observe it without an internal debate or unblinking obedience. This is also a permission slip to be extra kind and gentle with your human self and allow Chiron’s medicine to upgrade your life!

Unfold those social butterfly wings! Cancer season kicks off on Sunday, AKA the summer solstice, as the illuminating Sun beams into your third house of communication, socialization and neighborhood goings-on until July 22. You won’t need to travel far to find entertainment and join a buzzing hive of lively activities. The local scene will be an alluring ecosystem all month long. Solstice means “Sun standing still,” which is a good hint for you to stop rushing hither and yon and appreciate what’s right in front of you. Make a point of frequenting neighborhood eateries, boutiques and mom-and-pop shops, even if online shopping is more convenient. Skip your usual hangouts and explore area venues that are new to you. Cozy Cancer season is always a great excuse (as if you need one) for gathering with your favorite people and filling your social calendar with live music events, outdoor performances and markets, and happy hours! The third house rules platonic connections, so if you’re looking for a workout buddy or writing partner, take the initiative. Teaming up with a like-minded person won’t just double your productivity—it’ll double your fun!
