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.
This is a very frustrating day, in which you're stymied by someone's inertia or lack of enthusiasm. They may even try to sabotage your plans in some way, although you may not realize this at first because they're being so subtle about it. Make sure you don't add to the problems by underestimating your own abilities or allowing yourself to be demoralized. Soothing colours are strawberry and banana yellow. Lucky numbers are 13 and 62.
Think big! You're capable of making important and far-reaching changes to your long-term goals today, provided you have the necessary vision and self-belief. Although you won't get anywhere if you indulge in ridiculous fantasies that haven't a hope of coming true, nor should you restrict yourself to modest plans if you know full well that you're capable of achieving so much more. So be prepared to dream a little. Fortunate colours are scarlet and black onyx. Lucky numbers are 19 and 10.
Your values clash with those of a loved one today, and unless you're very careful the result will be verbal fisticuffs. If this happens, you'll end up having one of those nit-picking rows in which each of you details all the transgressions that the other one has committed lately, so you go round in circles and get increasingly angry. Isn't there a better way than this? Uplifting colours are sky blue and sable. Lucky numbers are 36 and 27.
Grab the chance to pamper yourself in some way today. You know you want Taurus, so go for it! You're drawn to items that are natural, rather than man-made, such as clothes made from silk or wool. You enjoy using oils, perfumes and other unguents that make you feel or smell good, but don't overdo it, or you could end up feeling slightly sick.... Auspicious colours are charcoal grey and iridescent pink. Lucky numbers are 34 and 70.
It's important that you take care of your money during the next two weeks, and also that you keep a strict eye on your spending. If you're wondering how you're going to be able to afford to buy all those Christmas presents on your list you may have to introduce an economy drive or make other contingency plans. What you can't do is bury your head in the sand and pretend it's not happening because that will lead to more problems in the end. Fortunate colours are dark brown and black. Lucky numbers are 31 and 69.
After yesterday, you aren't very sure of yourself today, but be careful about who knows it. They might try to take advantage of your current uncertainty, perhaps by doing you down in some way or simply by putting you on the defensive. There could also be confusion about someone's instructions, with you not understanding what they're talking about. If so, ask them to be clearer. Expressive colours are tartan and bright blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 70.
You're drawn to people who are chalk to your cheese, so don't be surprised if you experience a strong attraction to someone who's the antithesis of you. If a new relationship gets off the ground now, it will be unusual in some way and will bring out aspects of your personality that are normally kept hidden; and it's going to be very exciting! Exciting colours are brilliant white and blood red. Lucky numbers are 28 and 51.
A good day to keep a weather eye on your finances, to ensure that everything is on track. For instance, you might want to balance your cheque book, or go through your credit card statements. It's also a good idea to do some research into any investments or major outlays that you're considering at the moment, such as a mortgage or long-term pension plan. Fortunate colours are bright red and midnight black. Lucky numbers are 4 and 53.
The emphasis is on partnerships right now, and they become even more important to you from today. During the next few weeks you'll want to do your utmost to ensure that partners are happy, and also to prevent any chance of them getting annoyed with you. However, try to resist a tendency to put your own needs second if it would be far better to say what you want upfront. Liberating colours are sage green and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 32 and 3.
The next four weeks are the ideal time to immerse yourself in your most intimate and close relationships. Make a big effort to analyse why you are involved in the way you are, and what you can learn from the situation. The more honest you are with yourself about this, the more productive the experience will be. So look deeply into yourself. Romantic colours are ivory and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 78.
You need to develop a tough shell today Taurus, because there's a chilly atmosphere and it has nothing to do with the weather! It seems that someone is being distant or unfriendly, and you imagine that it's because they've gone off you. It's more likely that they're busy with other things, unless this is all part of a long-running saga in which they're giving you the cold shoulder. If so, you should end things now. Stabilising colours are deep purple and pale green. Lucky numbers are 8 and 24.
Be ready for a major clash between you and a certain person today. The more it's been brewing, the bigger the fall-out is likely to be. Even though you may be feeling deeply annoyed by what happens now, it's important that you don't make it worse by letting your temper get the better of you and therefore say or do things that you'll regret when you've calmed down. Advantageous colours are aubergine and jade. Lucky numbers are 9 and 74.
If your job requires you to be tough or issue orders, your heart simply won't be in it today. Instead, you'd prefer to take a 'softly softly' approach in which you consider other people's needs and back off when necessary. So how are you going to reconcile this dilemma Taurus? You may have to be sneaky about it, but don't leave yourself open to accusations of having double standards. Favourable colours are avocado and almond. Lucky numbers are 27 and 7.
Your Angel is Michael, Taurus, who watches over all your strengths and weaknesses and the Angel that rules your sign is Anael. Don't hesitate to call on either of your Angels if you need to, as they work hand in hand with the Stars. You've been in a self-destructive pattern lately and it's starting to tell. Break the mould by doing something completely different, especially on the weekend. Sunny colours are bright yellow and marigold orange. Lucky numbers are 23 and 20.
Devote part of today to getting in touch with far-flung friends and family. Give them a ring, send them an email or arrange to see them as soon as possible. You might even be inspired to invite them to stay with you in the near future. It's also a good day for getting together with people from different walks of life because you'll enjoy learning more about the world from them. Communicative colours are yellow and blue. Lucky numbers are 35 and 68.
The dynamic personality of you-know-who gives you a massive shot of energy and adrenalin today, making you feel on top of the world. It might be your other half who gives you this life-enhancing boost or it could be a friend, but either way they'll open your eyes to all sorts of exciting possibilities that you hadn't considered until now. Come on, Taurus, live a little! Bold colours are bright red and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 31 and 25.
You're easily swayed by your emotions today, and there may even be times when you abandon rationality and follow your heart instead. Even so, it seems that you'll have to be very clever about knowing what you can say and what is better left unsaid at the moment. You shouldn't stay completely silent but you're in danger of saying too much. Delightful colours are indigo and magenta. Lucky numbers are 18 and 5.
Your imagination is your best friend right now because it's allowing you to come up with some fabulous ideas and concepts. What's more, it's working in ways that you wouldn't normally expect because it's guiding you into making right decisions about your finances and long-term goals. It will also help to discuss these with a sympathetic listener. Fortuitous colours are shell pink and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 25 and 58.
Today's New Moon highlights your relationships during the rest of the month. It's a fantastic opportunity to make a commitment to someone, such as moving in with them, getting married or embarking on a business venture together. You may also want to adopt a new strategy with a certain person in order to improve the atmosphere between you. Inspirational colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 8 and 67.
During the next few weeks you'll feel a strong urge to channel your energy into relationships. You'll want them to be as successful as possible and will do your best to make this happen. However, you'll soon get rather ratty if you suspect that other people don't share your current aims, and you'll also be annoyed if they fail to agree with you on certain points. Be more tolerant! Fortunate colours are treacle and sepia. Lucky numbers are 2 and 52.
A certain person is being very cutting today, particularly if they think you're letting the side down in some way or not pulling your weight. Before you develop a total inferiority complex about this, you should realize that this person is probably being completely unreasonable and also that picking on you is a rather unhelpful way to boost their own faltering ego. Be kind to them and see if that makes a difference to their attitude. Fortunate colours are aubergine and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 24 and 12.
It's another day when you're happy to lend a hand wherever it's needed, without any thought for what you might expect in return. Do your best to show compassion and understanding to the people around you, even if you struggle to tolerate them sometimes. Right now, you're prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt and not to expect too much from them. Beneficial colours are lemon and navy. Lucky numbers are 21 and 56.
This is a wonderful day for tucking someone under your wing and taking care of them, particularly if they're feeling vulnerable in some way. For instance, if someone isn't very well you'll want to do your Florence Nightingale act on them, even if they're breathing germs all over you. There might also be some delicious romantic developments between you and a colleague. Fortunate colours are ebony and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 11 and 77.
This is a wonderful day for getting together with friends and loved ones. You'll relish the chance to spend some time with them, especially if you're all doing something light-hearted together. You could also hear something nice that massages your ego and reminds you yet again that you are loved by many different people. Sometimes life can be very sweet! Bright colours are pineapple and ochre. Lucky numbers are 16 and 59.
If you're a typical Taurean you like to know where you stand. But that isn't the way things are today, particularly when dealing with loved ones and friends. In fact, certain people seem to be going out of their way to shock you, do the opposite of what you suggest and generally try your patience to the limit. There's nothing you can do about this except go with the flow. But can you? Auspicious colours are mango and aqua. Lucky numbers are 17 and 74.
If you're celebrating Bonfire Night, or having a belated Hallowe'en party, you couldn't have chosen a better day to whoop it up. You're in the mood to cast caution to the wind and indulge yourself with plenty of delicious food and drink. This might also be a red- letter day on the work front, giving you good reason to raise a glass and toast your own good fortune. Favourable colours are plum and ivory. Lucky numbers are 21 and 49.
Be careful because it seems that someone is doing their best to undermine you in subtle but profound ways. There may even be some sort of treachery afoot, and you should certainly be very careful about who you trust. However, you must also be careful not to send out confusing messages yourself, because these could easily be misinterpreted, leading to recriminations later on. Beneficial colours are champagne and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 38 and 32.
More haste, less speed! You're trying to do far too much in too short a time, and all you'll achieve will be to go round in circles or get yourself into a total mess. So calm down, take a deep breath and do things one at a time. If you're in too much of a hurry you'll either make a hash of everything and have to start again, or you'll end up in a furious temper and completely at odds with the rest of the world. Fortunate colours are sable and silver. Lucky numbers are 6 and 70.
Some straight talking is called for and you're just the person to do it. You won't subject anyone to a ticking off unless it's absolutely necessary, but nevertheless you'll be speaking straight from the shoulder and you won't be mincing your words. This is a marvellous day for taking part in a negotiation or discussion because your mind is as sharp as a razor. Auspicious colours are peach and lilac. Lucky numbers are 25 and 15.
Don't expect everything to go according to plan today. Although it's highly unlikely that all your arrangements will unravel before your very eyes, nevertheless you should be prepared for some last- minute changes to take place. You'll have to think on your feet, and also give up any idea that you can control your environment because, right now, you can't. Fortunate colours are primrose yellow and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 39 and 47.
