Taurus Horoscope for December 2014

In some important sense your intense times have only just begun, Taurus. This month signals the ending of one cycle of metamorphosis and the beginning of another. As you graduate this year's crash course, you are automatically signed up for the next, and you are coming to a better understanding of where it is that you are ultimately heading. There is a spiritually oriented inner component to your evolving worldview. You might feel inspired to undertake inner work beyond even what you have come to over these last few months. The cosmos seems to be sending you a signal to rejoice. The changes that you have been through have prepared you somewhat for these new Olympic trials, while family members, partners and angel guides are standing by to take your hand, as you are able offer it up to them.

As the month begins, you are feeling the inspiration of your own inner world. This is not a huge surprise, as it has been somewhat of a theme for you lately, that you feel the siren call of another and deeper viewpoint weaving in and out amidst the streams of your more normalized activities, tempting you to contemplation. This time however you are arriving at a new stage in your endeavors as the end of the year approaches and as the drumbeat for personal evolution along the lines of your soul's agenda grows more insistent. This prognostication is based in part on the recent Sagittarius New Moon, from the penultimate weekend of November, which took place in your sector of intimacy and personal evolution. This triggered in you an even greater desire for inner exploration, establishing a base camp within your psyche ? below the level of conscious awareness.

This month represents you coming to greater understanding as well of what it is, deep down, that you feel that you need to do in order to catch up with yourself and with your soul's intention for this lifetime. There is a way that you can become mired in early conditioning and the continual twisted logic of purely linear analysis. Your inner guidance sees beyond this although this important part of yourself might have trouble communicating its truth to your surface personality. We are all, as Dylan famously put it back in the fertile sixties, bent out of shape by the action of "society's pliers." C. G. Jung also weighed in on the importance of being able to consult ourselves at the deepest possible level, as a means to get out from under this burden of conditioned response. In his autobiography he stated "The individual who wishes to have an answer to the problem of evil, as it is posed today, has need, first and foremost, of self-knowledge. That is, the utmost possible knowledge of his [or her] own wholeness. Both [good and evil] are elements within his [or her] own nature, and both are bound to come to light ? should he [or she] wish to live ? as one ought ? without self-deception or self-delusion."

This is the time of the peak of the Uranus-Pluto square, which, for you, implies an increase in self-knowledge. The period of this astrological chime with your own evolutionary development is over the past several years, although the pressure has mounted in recent months. This impulse for profound change becomes especially strong over this current monthly cycle. This is an intense and powerful lead-up to the final exact hit in March of these forces in combination that lead the way to radical revolutionary change on both an individual and a societal level.

By living deeply, you also incline to self-discovery. This means that when encountering difficult information about yourself, you neither turn away in shame nor pretend not to notice, thereby brushing under the rug whatever unpleasant facts about yourself or your early life have come to light. You thus enable yourself to become more whole, and establish a self-confident basis for moving forward into the world from your own center. You are coming into a time when you are, if not immune to the persuasions of others and the tendency to be falsely pleasing, at least far less susceptible, recognizing that such an influence is foreign to your soul's truest essence.

Detailed Monthly Forecast
The Full Moon of Saturday, December 6th, takes place in your sector of values and resources and brings up issues of self and other. You are on the one hand fully committed to your own self-development, and yet, on the other fully recognizing as well the power of two that can make an important difference. This is a seeming paradox that really is not, since a better understanding of yourself at the deepest possible level is both the goal of all your striving and as well the necessary path to greater intimacy with a potential or current partner.

The Last Quarter Moon of Sunday, December 14th, takes place in your sector of self-expression, and signals that your process of significantly transforming yourself is entering yet another phase. You have been drinking in some subtle lessons lately and have perhaps only just now turned a corner in getting a more tenacious grasp on what you are attempting here, acknowledging your path forward into wholeness as no small thing. In a form of figure-and-ground reversal, everything appears differently to your awakening eye. You are better able to see the value and the utility in satisfying your deeper intention.

The Winter Solstice and Capricorn New Moon of Sunday, December 21st, takes place in your sector of higher mind, kicking off a more energetic stage of conscious life development that will carry you through to the end of the year and beyond. It could be that transformational movement becomes a way of life, so that there is no telling where you will end up, as you head into another powerful year of change.
