Taurus Weekly Horoscope

The muse is back for a sequel! This Wednesday, April 16, expressive Mercury swoops back into Aries and your dreamy twelfth house until May 10. This marks Mercury’s second pass through this mystical zone—after a first round from March 3 to 29 that was disrupted by a retrograde detour beginning on the 15th. Now that Mercury is direct and retracing its steps, creative breakthroughs are back on the menu, and this time with clarity. Don’t be surprised if inspiration strikes during a lucid dream or while you’re lost in a reverie—lyrics, colors, plot twists, or even full-on choreography could come tumbling in. Capture every download, no matter how abstract. Forget about aiming for a polished product right now. Just give your right brain the reins and let it roam free. With Mercury back in your zone of closure and surrender, don’t ignore any pangs of grief. These feelings might not be fun to delve into, but true strength isn’t about holding it all in, Taurus—it’s about releasing what you’ve outgrown. This leg of Mercury’s journey could bring powerful closure or at least a few profound epiphanies.

Your thoughts may turn in a different direction on Friday as motivational Mars marches into Leo and your domestic fourth house until June 17, inspiring a massive cleanup, decluttering or possibly a redecorating spree. It’s essential to your comfort- and security-seeking sign to be happy in your home space, so if you’re not, this is your cosmic cue to switch things up. Could you make do with a change in the cast of characters under your roof, or are you ready to begin the search for more suitable quarters? If you are happily hunkered in your Bullpen, then turn it into the epicenter of springtime fun for friends and family. In between all the festivities, feed your soul by finding time to unplug, putter aimlessly and read for hours in your favorite nook.
