June 2013 horoscope - Taurus

I follow the sidereal calendar; this is the monthly solar horoscope for birthdays from 16^th May to 15^th June of Taurus Ascendants and Moons

By Louise Gilbert

Taurus, it’s still your birthday month and June starts off with the Sun and Mars still in your sign giving you a lot of energy, drive and sex appeal. People will notice you more than usual and while you’re not one who needs to be in the spotlight at all times, you now find yourself being the centre of attention in every room you walk into. However, others may want to watch taking you for granted these days – although Mars in Taurus is slow to anger, once your temper gets going, there is no holding back. The raging bull is let loose – and most of this seems to be pointed towards the direction of relationships! If there is an object of affection you are eyeing up, then, unusually so, you are the one taking the initiative now and if you are coupled up, you are the one who initiates those chats now and you are the one who take the initiative to move the relationship forward. The new Moon on 8^th June in Taurus is your annual new beginning! It’s the time of the year when you reinvent yourself and when you step into the future so to speak. It’s a busy time of the year usually when you look at what’s ahead for you in the coming weeks and months and you take on your responsibilities enthusiastically. For you, it seems as though a lot has to do with your home and living situation but with such a heavy focus on your finances this month, your bank balance may play a significant role in activities being launched around this time.

But the big news this month is that Jupiter changes signs, moving from your solar first house into your 2nd house of earned income and your values. After 12 months of personal growth and defining or redefining your plans, it’s time to reap the rewards, big time. And that’s how you like it. Jupiter, the planet of expansion and the ruler of your house of gains forms a so-called Dhana yoga for a whole year providing material wealth from your own doing and involvement in large-scale, international projects. Equally, this is a combination of a wealthy second life partner if this is what you’re after these days.

In June, you may not only be preoccupied with what you earn and how you are going to increase your already substantial bank account, you may also be dealing with matters of inheritance, insurance and tax issues. All of this may be tied into a property you inherit or are about to purchase or sell. This month, this area is a big focus for you as you are getting your finances in order. There don’t seem to be any pitfalls other than not to overspend – and yes, this is not an easy task for a luxury-loving Taurus who has a stellium of planets transiting through the house of money. This is also the area in the chart to do with your values, all of which you may be thinking about more closely now.

What’s giving you wings this month is the grand air trine formed by Neptune, Saturn, Venus, Mercury, the Sun and the Moon this month is a beautiful and welcome respite, introducing a little bit of ease. Our ideals are high this month and our ideas far reaching. Just as the summer begins in the Northern hemisphere, we are ready to socialise and interact with others a lot more than usual. From the interaction with others, new ideas and concepts are formed, new associations developed, new facts picked up and experiences made. For you, this connects your professional life and your career with your finances and your daily routine. It’s likely that you’ve been somewhat unclear about where your life is heading at the moment or whether your existing job is still as fulfilling as you thought it would be. While these areas are under review, there is also a lot of effortlessness around – but you have to recognise it. Trines always need to be kick-started but luckily, the full Moon on 23^rd June in Sagittarius gets involved and puts some of your concerns around loans, inheritance and generally speaking, other people’s resources, to rest. Equally, the end of June is a time for you to focus on contracts which means a new job offer could be negotiated.  

Have a profitable month, Taurus!
