Taurus Horoscope for September 2017

This is a big month for internal change, Taurus. The recent solar eclipse lit up your home and family sector, and it is quite possible that you will be dealing with changes and perhaps challenges on the home front. Your family of origin could also come into play, as you dig deeper into your own inner world. You have a huge helping of intuition to guide you, and your dreams might be unusually expressive to you now. All of the information that you can receive concerning what is going on for you below the surface is valuable. You are feeling your way into greater wholeness through self-examination and relationship analysis, especially when Mercury stations to direct motion from the 3rd to the 5th. You are seeking better alignment between inner and outer, and have been looking more carefully into what you value most, including family ties, and seeing how this affects worldview, concepts of partnership, and your own creativity.

You’re likely to continue firming up foundations this month. Perhaps you’ve been through a shaky last few weeks. You might have communication challenges with family or loved ones at home. Or you find it hard to feel as comfortable at home as you’d like. This could prompt you to be unsure of your footing outside of the home as well. And no child of the sign of the Bull likes to feel on less than solid ground.

You can be certain that when changeable Mercury comes out of his retrograde on the 5th you’ll begin to be more stable. Mercury’s pairing with edgy Mars in Leo on the 3rd suggest that you could rush things, though. You might embark on a DIY home project that’s a little too ambitious for your skill set. Or be too aggressive in trying to repair a frayed relationship. Instead, take baby steps. Put your passion for working things out into every detail rather than strive to make gains too fast.

By the time of the Full Moon on the 6th, you’ll probably begin to mellow out. Grasping too hard and fast for what you want won’t put it in your hands any faster, especially with associates, friends or colleagues. You’ll have to go more with the flow rather than insisting that you know what’s best. Tolerance for other viewpoints doesn’t have to diminish your own confidence or another’s. Think, instead, that you could land on a new solution that neither of you expected. You want to cultivate a spongy, creative confidence that’s pliable yet firm, like plastic foam.

Mercury re-enters your fertile fifth house on the 9th. These new Virgo digs will add detail and grounding to your creativity. But your attention to the nitty-gritty of nearly anything can also raise the volume of your inner (and outer) critic. There’s no doubt that you have an incredible work ethic when it gets into drive. But remember not everyone has your same passion for work. Then also recall that details are only delicious when you relish them for their own sake. But when specifics are only from your mind and not the delight of your body and soul, they often just feel like burdens. Don’t burden yourself or others with soulless peccadilloes. You do better to express your pleasure to find your treasure.

It’s likely that at the Virgo New Moon on the 19th you’ll feel like you can bask in your comfort zone again. With enough creative confidence, you won’t feel the need to unleash your inner critic on yourself or others.

When compelling Pluto shifts out of its retrograde on September 28th, you’ll feel you can convincingly share your inventiveness with others around you. Yet, in turn, you might need to be open to wisdom and thoughts from outside yourself without wasteful struggles for dominance and control. You are empowered now to dive in deep and explore the underlying cause of some of your more troubling issues.
