Having goals is important, as is spotting challenges. Learning how to dance around those goals is the biggest trick of all. This is the lesson for you: to recognize that it isn’t about getting things resolved on any particular day, but enjoying what each day brings.
I’m learning to ask whether those who are giving advice are, themselves, happy
As a Taurus and an earth sign, you don’t particularly think about life being about cycles, but as a May 5th Taurus, life isn’t just about cycles. It is about new discoveries and the excitement that comes with them. This can be in terms of people or activities, then the process of learning about those—and the doubts and concerns that arise. Perhaps, in some cases, you are even feeling disillusioned—and then doing it all over again.
This journey is important to understand, because it is actually about life. In life itself, there are seasons. There is spring, when you were born, when everything is bursting with bloom. There’s summer heat; and then there is fall, when the blooms vanish and the leaves fall from the trees. Then there is the stillness of winter and then spring again. In your life,too, it is about this cycle.
When you become comfortable with that, then you will also understand that important as certain relationships are, they will have their ups and downs. As exciting as certain discoveries are, whether it’s personal goals or activities out in the world, each will be about a journey that may occasionally be easy, but often will have twists and turns. You’ll also discover how exciting and rewarding these are. Once you do that, you’ll have learned one of life’s most important lessons.
Few things upset you as much as when somebody you have trusted disappoints you. The big question is, have you learned that the issue is not their actions, but your own expectations? There may have been a misunderstanding or an unexpected problem. It has happened to you, and will again. The secret is to realize that mistakes are human and there is nothing to forgive.
While it is good to eat well and move well, stress can be one of the most challenging elements of your life. Learning to undo that stress is one of the major themes for you as a May 5th Taurus. The trick is to disentangle yourself from situations that ordinarily you might get upset about, and learn to be relaxed.
Having goals is important, as is spotting challenges. Learning how to dance around those goals is the biggest trick of all. This is the lesson for you: to recognize that it isn’t about getting things resolved on any particular day, but enjoying what each day brings.
Life is full of minor disagreements that often lead to valuable discussions and rewarding new ideas. Now, however, you are taking one particular issue too seriously, mostly because it involves a matter about which you have intense feelings. Admitting this won’t be easy, but it is essential.
Taurus: APRIL 19 – MAY 19
Ruler: Venus
Symbol: The Bull
Element: Earth
Flower: Orchid
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.
