Taurus
Born between: April 20th - May 20th
Those with the Taurus sign are perfect partners in friendship and love as they're loving, loyal and understanding. However those born under the Taurus sign at times can be stubborn but always are patient and generous.
It's a tricky day, so be careful. You're in need of company but the people you seek out won't have as much time for you as you'd like. They may be genuinely busy with other things, but if you aren't careful you'll convince yourself that they're making excuses because they don't really want to see you. Try not to believe that you've been given the brush off unless the evidence is overwhelming.
Strange things could happen with a friend during the next two weeks, giving you an entirely new perspective on them. You might decide that you need to have a word in their ear about something, particularly if you don't want it to happen again. Or you could realize that your feelings for them are changing and you need to do something about it.
This is a good day for getting together with some of the family because you'll enjoy one another's company. However, someone could get their knickers in a twist, which will lead to a tricky atmosphere and possibly even some raised voices. This is especially likely if the conversation strays into memories of the past, with people arguing about what really happened.
Be careful today because your emotions are in a state of flux, which could lead to confusion and mixed messages. You should be especially aware of this when dealing with people of power or influence, in case you give them the wrong impression. It will also be difficult to keep track of your thoughts, so you'll appear to be absent-minded or distracted.
If you get fed up with being thought of as a placid or pragmatic Taurean, you'll jump at the chance to show a different side to your personality today. In fact, the more you suspect that you've been put into a pigeon hole by other people, the more you'll want to do things that make them sit up and take notice. It's a question of how outrageous you dare to be!
You're in a competitive and adventurous mood today, making you keen to get involved in all sorts of interesting activities. You could even be inspired to do something for the first time, especially if it presents you with a bit of a challenge. Although you'll enjoy feeling your adrenalin racing around your veins, don't do anything totally rash or foolhardy.
Between now and the start of September you should think carefully about any family or domestic plans that are currently in the pipeline. Unforeseen snags could crop up, forcing you to re-evaluate your ideas and possibly even come up with some different solutions. Alternatively, projects may go cold for the time being and you'll just have to be patient.
Still waters run deep today, so even if a loved one isn't saying much it doesn't mean that they're impervious to what's going on around them. You can bet that they're taking it all in, and probably getting into a bit of a state about it. If you suspect that someone is brooding, it's a good idea to encourage them to talk about what's on their mind, even if it makes uncomfortable listening.
There's nothing you'll like better today than having a good old natter with whoever happens to be around. Ideally, you should get together with someone who makes your world go round and then chat away about whatever pops into your head. If you meet someone new now you'll share a relationship in which communications are highlighted for some reason.
Life will be very pleasant and enjoyable during the next four weeks, with plenty of things to keep you amused. Much to your delight, there will be times when you're the centre of everyone's affection, which will do wonders for your ego. The atmosphere between you and your favourite people will be even sweeter than usual, so there's a lot to look forward to.
There's a lot of pleasure to be gained from getting on with domestic and other routine chores today. You'll enjoy gradually ticking them all off your list of things to do, and you'll also take trouble with them so you do them to the best of your ability. If you can spare the time you'll enjoy pottering about in the kitchen or throwing out old belongings you no longer need.
You've got a lot on your plate today and it's getting you down. This could have an impact on your health, making you feel tired or lethargic, and possibly even making you susceptible to any germs that happen to be flying about. If you're really struggling to get everything done in time you may have to ask for help or accept that you can't work miracles and something's got to give.
A friend is prone to some very erratic thinking today, so there's no knowing what they're going to say or do next. You may even suspect that they're taking a perverse delight in keeping you on your toes or being rather contrary. Try not to take what they say as gospel in case they're talking complete nonsense.
A loved one seems to be operating much faster than usual. They may be talking nineteen to the dozen, so you can barely keep up with what they're saying, and their thought processes have also been speeded up. This will be fun but unfortunately it may also mean that they soon start to get impatient if they think you're lagging behind. Try to keep the atmosphere light-hearted to avoid things degenerating into a row.
You're able to combine practicality with creativity today, and that will be a very constructive combination. You stand a good chance of achieving whatever you set out to do, especially if you're relying on other people to give you their support or co-operate in some way. A relationship will also flourish now because you're both putting so much effort into it.
You've been spending a lot of time concentrating on your home and family lately, and today's New Moon is a super opportunity to make any changes or decisions that you think are necessary. For instance, if you've been wondering when to put your house on the market or redesign your garden, it would be a wise move to get the ball rolling within the next two weeks.
The best way to get on well with someone now is to spend time talking to them. If you can't see them in person, give them a ring or write them a letter so they know you're thinking about them. Any form of discussion will go smoothly now, so it's a good opportunity to bring up any difficult topics you've been avoiding.
There are three things you're after today - enjoyment, love and laughter. As a result, you'll want to steer clear of anything that smacks of hard work, drudgery or duty. It's a lovely day for being with some of your favourite people, perhaps sharing a meal or a having a drink together. A trip to a beauty spot or the cinema will also appeal to you now.
Some of the people in your life are very unpredictable today, and as a result social arrangements could face lots of disruptions. Do your best to go with the flow and to see where it takes you, because it could lead you in some highly enjoyable directions. You might also be strongly attracted to someone who isn't normally your cup of tea but who is definitely to your taste right now.
The more understanding you can show towards a certain person, the better you'll get on with them now. Even if they're a bit of a mystery and you can't work them out, they'll appreciate the effort you're making to find out what makes them tick. You may never end up being bosom buddies but your present attitude will make them more sympathetic towards you.
A local event or neighbourhood activity goes really well today, helped along by your current ability to bring out the best in others. A few well-chosen words could make all the difference to what happens now, and you'll definitely prefer to mollify people than to rub them up the wrong way. Remember that if you've got to do something that you aren't looking forward to.
The next six weeks will be a fantastic opportunity to cram as much fun into your life as possible. You'll have a very strong desire to enjoy yourself whenever you get the chance, and that will include making the most of your love life. If you get involved with someone new, the thrill of the chase will be a big part of the fun. Take care, though, not to confuse love with lust.
Watch out, because you're in a rather combustible mood right now and it won't take much to make you go off bang. What's wrong? You could be feeling got at, especially if a loved one has been nagging you or is being grumpy. There is also a chance that you're subconsciously goading someone into losing their temper so you can have a rip-roaring row with them.
Life is a cabaret today! Well, you may not want to put on the fishnet tights and the bowler hat, but you certainly feel like dancing and singing. What's brought this on? It may be nothing more than a sense of being at one with the world, and a determination to look on the bright side and make the best of whichever cards life has dealt you. When you think about it, what else can you do?
During the coming four weeks you'll excel at bringing out the best in the people around you. For instance, if a neighbour is usually a total pain in the neck, you may even manage to perform a miracle by appealing to their better nature and keeping them sweet. So make the most of your tact and diplomacy, because they'll be your best friends this month.
Prepare yourself for a difficult day. For a start, you seem riddled with self-doubt and a lack of direction, and this will be exploited by anyone who wants to get the better of you. You're also facing big changes connected with a relationship or financial arrangement, and right now you aren't very keen on the idea. But can you do anything to stop it?
You're in a sentimental and emotional mood today, without going overboard or getting worked up. In an ideal world, you should surround yourself with loved ones, or spend time with one special person, and revel in their company. It's also a super day for luxuriating in your home comforts.
A friend needs plenty of attention at the moment which is okay if you can spare the time, but can you? It's highly likely that you've got other claims on your time, in which case you'll have to be very tactful if you're to avoid upsetting this person or making them feel that they aren't important enough to you. You may also receive an invitation that you can't get out of, even if you would like to.
Put your brain to good use now because you're in a very rational and logical frame of mind. It's a super day for showing how organized and practical you can be, without getting bogged down in details or becoming a stick-in-the-mud. If you get involved in a discussion or negotiation, your intellect and common sense will shine through.
Today you're very keen on any activities that will brighten up your life and give you something fresh to think about. As a result, you could become interested in a new hobby that seems to offer you a lot of scope, or you might consider joining a club or organization that's slightly unusual. Some of your ideas may also seem quite radical to you, yet they are worth following up.
Is there any chance that you-know-who has been taken over by aliens? Weird as that may sound, right now it seems a distinct possibility judging by the strange things they're doing and saying. However, there could be some logic in their actions, even though it's escaping you at the moment. So try to go with the flow, be as open minded as possible and not make pre-conceived judgements about what this person is saying.
