The biggest challenge for you is to resist settling into a familiar activity. Instead, do something new—if not every day, then at least once a week. Get yourself into this routine, and what you discover, who you meet, and the delights you encounter will feed you in ways beyond anything you’d imagined possible.
While changes can be puzzling, I welcome a thrilling surprise
For you, as an April 28th Taurus, living well and with joy is a priority. That may sound strange, because you would imagine everyone thinks that way, but they don’t. This also means that if you intend to spend time with those around you, whether it’s family, friends, or colleagues, it is your responsibility to organize things. While that’s sometimes annoying, it also means those arrangements will be far more interesting than if you left plans to others.
Yet being a Taurus and ruled by Venus, which also rules Libra, the relationship sign, it’s all about collaboration. Getting others involved in plans is an art. What’s more, those around you may have very different views about what they’d enjoy. In fact, when they come up with something, you may wonder what on earth they’re thinking. Actually, they’re revealing their point of view to you.
Recognizing this is part of your journey. The more you listen to, learn about, and experience what others find joy in, the better you’ll understand them, and ironically, you will gain better understanding of yourself as well. While you could sit back and try to figure things out, your birthday is linked to learning. The more you explore and the more you experiment, the more you’ll discover—and the more joy you’ll have with every passing day.
As a Taurus and an earth sign, you’re often the person everybody expects to make decisions. However, sometimes you’re too cautious. That is one of your biggest lessons. Make a deal with yourself to take a chance, on your own and with others. You’ll not only learn a lot, but even seemingly challenging relationships will suddenly begin to be fun.
Life is about breakthroughs. Once, you enjoyed doing certain things and eating foods that were good for you. But you have changed, times have changed, and those habits need to change, too. It’s all about experimentation. Take chances—with eating, with what you do, and with how you live. What you discover will be as unexpected as it is exciting.
The biggest challenge for you is to resist settling into a familiar activity. Instead, do something new—if not every day, then at least once a week. Get yourself into this routine, and what you discover, who you meet, and the delights you encounter will feed you in ways beyond anything you’d imagined possible.
Urgent as certain decisions seem, don’t let anybody corner you into committing to something you’re unsure about. The problem isn’t a lack of options, but rather, too many. You need to explore and experiment. Just ensure others know that is the approach you’re taking and you will finalize plans later.
Taurus: APRIL 19 – MAY 19

Sensuality and practicality are fundamental to you as a Taurus, the first of the earth signs. While its ruling planet, Venus, accents life’s pleasures, it’s also about assets, which means you are a gracious individual who lives both well and wisely. That’s reflected in your flower, the orchid, and your aromatic spices—cloves and sorrel. Your tree is crab apple, while your stones reflect Venus’s pastel shades in both jade and emerald.
