This is an interesting month for you, Taurus, a slice of evolutionary time as you grow your understanding of where your life is taking you. You could be incorporating inner priorities to an even greater extent than you have in the past. You are also pausing to take stock in this present cycle, as the retrograde of Mercury places a contemplative spin on everything that is going on for you, including a re-examination of your idealized notion of your pathway forward, and also your own relationship dynamic. It seems that partnering with others is one important way for you to accomplish your aims, and yet there is as always the concern that your own future progress matches your inner goals and plans. You may need to attend to your emerging sense of what is true for you alone, independent of other voices.
As the month begins, you are still riding the coat tails of the connective energy of the Libra New Moon that took place on September 23rd in your sector of day-to-day activities, health regimens and service to others. With the New Moon setting the tone for this entire lunar cycle, you could find yourself attracted to strong themes of tending to well-being — either your own or that of others — and as well mulling over some deeper considerations of how you spend the minutes that make up your day and ultimately your life. You may find that your emotional sensitivity to others' needs is heightened; yet your own well being is beckoning and might require a tremendous amount of your attention and energy right now, as well. The challenge, of course, lies in finding the balance between attending to your own needs and those of others, which is changing in every moment. Yet your gifts, currently, of empathy and of possessing the ability to tune into another's state of being, remains of tremendous value, and will give you great joy in sharing with and caring for your loved ones.
There is likely some welcome form of optimism or good fortune appearing in your home life right now, as Jupiter makes his way through your fourth solar sector of home and family. Interestingly, your sense of faith in this area may actually be fuelled by uncomfortable realizations and growing pains, as reflected in the highlighted presence of Chiron, the Wounded Healer, in your sector of societal connection and future plans. You are in some sense finding how truly valuable your home life and foundational values are in keeping you grounded and on track as you navigate your own transformation and reinvent your pathway forward. You might be asking yourself what do you really need in order to experience a sense of ease and rootedness as you endeavor to manifest your vision, and experience the deep sense of belonging and purpose that you also perhaps so deeply desire.
This month could also be an excellent time period to cultivate patience, as it may be a case of two steps forward, and one step back. Mercury stations to retrograde motion the first weekend of the month, on the 4th of October, and doesn't straighten out until the 25th, or even the 10th of November when you take the retrograde shadow into account. This time represents an invitation for inward contemplation, as well as recaLibrating or reorienting, especially to the extent that challenging external situations appear. You are rediscovering your pathway forward, which involves nothing less than a months-long process of redefining your entire worldview, while taking your inner world more seriously into account as you do so. This meditative period will work out to be an extremely valuable interlude as you continue your progress in this important area.
With the massive changes that are happening now, I highly recommend that folks get a transit report tailored specifically to their chart for the most accurate description of what's in store for you in the months ahead.
