Taurus Horoscope for December 2017

Taurus Horoscope for December 2017

Posted on in Taurus |
By for ASTROGRAPH Horoscopes

This month ends the time for ignoring what you came here to do, Taurus, and takes you several steps further down the road of your growth and progress. Service to others around you guides your approach. This is a partnership-oriented time for you, so that it may well turn out that significant others in your life have much to do with your continued unfolding. With Mercury retrograding through your sector of relationship closeness and deep inner connection, you are rethinking all the ways that this factor plays out in your self-imposed mission statement of greater good for all, stemming directly from your higher Self. Intimacy with others begins with intimacy within yourself. As your deeper psyche emerges further into consciousness you find that flashes of intuitional insight, to the extent that you can open to these, continue to light your way forward. This is therefore a thoughtful time of great consequence for your future evolutionary development.


The following was written by this month's guest columnist Adam Elenbaas of The Nightlight Astrology School:


As we approach the winter solstice and the end of 2017, there are a flurry of planetary dynamics taking place that should make the last weeks of the year memorable and transformative for those born under the sign of the Bull. First, Mars in Libra is opposing Uranus in Aries from your sixth house to your twelfth house. Then, Jupiter in Scorpio and Neptune in Pisces are making a trine to each other from your seventh and eleventh houses, and finally, Mercury and Saturn are conjoining in the sign of Sagittarius in your 8th house, just as Mercury stations and turns retrograde. Let’s take a look at each transit, in depth!

First, Mars in Libra in your sixth house is opposing Uranus in Aries in your twelfth house. The sixth house is traditionally the house of illness and misfortune, underdogs and social injustice, but it is also related to those who are dedicated to serving and healing others. The twelfth house is traditionally the house of self-undoing, misery, loss, and illusion, but like it’s sister sixth house, it is also related to healers, saints, and those who are called to shadow work. Here’s what to watch for:

  • Power struggles related to medical conditions or health struggles
  • Advocacy, diplomacy, or new initiatives related to mental health challenges
  • Challenging and unpredictable events related to the body or health
  • A healing crisis
  • Accidents or illness that impart an important lesson
  • Fighting for underdogs or for those who cannot help themselves
  • Unexpected events that inspire and infuse you with courage and boldness
  • Diplomatic challenges or unexpected obstacles and the opportunities they provide for inner healing and growth or for the healing and growth of your relationships

This aspect may sound rather bleak and difficult, but it’s also a profoundly healing transit that provides us with many opportunities for growth. Of all the signs, Taurus is in some ways the least comfortable with unexpected changes. The last time you experienced this same transit was back in December of 2015, two years ago. If you look back at that time you may gain some clues or insights into this transit!
Next, Jupiter in Scorpio in your seventh house is making a trine to Neptune in Pisces in your eleventh house. The seventh house is the house of marriage and relationships, and the eleventh house is the house of friends, hopes, wishes, allies or benefactors and dreams of the future. Here’s what to watch for:

  • Expansive blessings coming through friends and partners
  • Dreams and new possibilities opening through your partner or spouse
  • Blessings, help, and aid coming to you through networks of people
  • Your relationship is growing, and you and your partner are dreaming of a new future goal or vision
  • You are meeting someone new and planning for a new future
  • You are being introduced to the right people at the right time
  • Restoral of faith, love, hope, affection, and tenderness in relationships
  • Creating an exciting new collaboration with like-minded friends
  • Celebrating with friends, expanding your social life, riding a wave of enthusiasm shared with others
  • Grandiosity or arrogance in relationships or coming from a partner
  • Plans or visions for the future that may be ungrounded

Finally, Mercury and Saturn are conjoining in Sagittarius, just as Mercury is turning retrograde during the first week of the month. This planetary transit is taking place in your 8th house, which is traditionally the house of other people’s money or shared resources, inheritance, death, debt, penalties, fears and worries about the future. Here’s what to watch for:

  • A significant change to your spouse or partner’s income
  • A new joint financial endeavor
  • Paying off debt or loans, or possibly lending or being lent money
  • A total change of financial philosophy or a change of approach to joint resources
  • A change of mind or philosophy for a partner surrounding their money or spending habits
  • Difficult news related to debt or money
  • Revising a contract or agreement with someone else related to business or money
  • Being forced to look at the financial details
  • A changing investment strategy
  • The death or loss of elders
  • The purchase of a new piece of technology or new equipment
  • Hiring someone new or finding a new form of professional support
  • Expenses or debt from the past, resurfacing
  • Anxiety and how we prepare ourselves, mentally, for an uncertain future
