Taurus Horoscope for June 2015

Your huge learning curve morphs and grows, Taurus, as you continue to be curious about where your life is taking you. As you explore your depths, and as you discover new facets of your identity, you are finding that partnership provides an avenue into an expanding worldview that takes as its starting point a big picture outlook on the world around you. Relationship provides mentoring, or it might feel like moving in slow motion to better absorb the implied lessons of your evolving partnership dynamic. As you go through these hoops, there is great idealism as well as hope for the future and a sense of inner joy that it is vital that you maintain, because it is the key to everything else. The issues that you are currently confronting seem like chance but actually possess features engendered by your own hidden soul intention.

As the month begins, you are partaking of a more serious mode, forging new links to relationship connection and deep soul intention, as has been the case especially since the mid-May New Moon in your sign. This is according to the symbolism of Saturn, highlighted this month and residing in your sector of personal evolution and intimacy. There are limitations implied by this positioning. Barriers to intimate connection with important others in your life could arise, for example, so that you may feel that there is a way that you are being forced back upon yourself, resulting in a sense of isolation that can seem painful. It is always possible to find the positive in any life circumstance, and for this one, it is in the building of your character. The transformative energies of Pluto are also powerfully invoked in this month's astrological weather, being closely aspected by Jupiter and by your ruler, Venus, in the timing of the recent New Moon. You are therefore still feeling the changes that have been coming down over these past few years. These affect the way that you see the world around you, and how you create within yourself your own response to whatever it is that you think that you perceive.

This month is also an important time for self-reflection, regarding these and other matters, as indicated by the powerful Mercury Retrograde period taking place in your sector of values and resources. You are reviewing where you stand, metaphorically speaking, on issues of self-sufficiency and with regard to material concerns or security issues, and feeling more introspective than usual. When you do reach out to others, your communication reflects the deeper levels of your psyche. This lasts for most of the remainder of the month, when you take into account Mercury's "retrograde shadow," or the two-week period that it takes to recover its lost Zodiacal ground, after its June 11th station to direct motion. The peak moments of this Mercury Retrograde are in fact the weekend just before June 1st, and also Thursday, June 11th, when it stations. These signal a time of consternation and also revelation.

Jupiter is another astrological factor that is currently emphasized for you this month. This monthly cycle is in fact a fundamentally optimistic time, although you might also be struggling to acknowledge it. You are definitely caught up in the antithetical elements represented by both the restrictions and limitations of Saturn on the one hand, and expansive Jupiter on the other. Jupiter resides in your sector of home and family, so that in the midst of all these depth researches you may well be exploring new factors in your relationship with family members, or how you plan your living space. This sector also symbolizes the deeper parts your own psyche that are invoked by some of the processes descried above. You essentially are on a voyage of discovery that takes you to hidden places within you, made perhaps even more poignant during the past few days of June, when Venus joins Jupiter in this vitally significant placement.

Chiron, the Wounded Healer, is also emphasized in this month's astrology, and located in your sector of societal connection, so that it is possible that you will become more involved in healing practices, by yourself or with others, and it may be also the case that you will find reasons to come up against your own inner wounding, reflecting as well many of these same themes of internal recognition. Many miracles are possible when you descend willingly into your depths and face squarely whatever it is that you there encounter.
