Taurus loves the beauty and abundance this amazing planet gives us each moment. How are you caring for what sustains you? Are you loving all parts of what you inhabit, giving abundantly for all you receive? And don’t forget the LOVE and nurturing your body requires – yummy food, lots of rest, moving about, and rejoicing in the miracle being alive in a human body. The Law of Attraction works, no matter what. Are you counting your blessings or your heartaches? If you direct LOVE to all things, what would that mean for what you would create next?

Taurus asks you to ground into your connection to the Earth, to understand and to feel intensely how important it is to care for the emotional/physical space you occupy. Venus-ruled Taurus asks you to look at all things through a lens of love, to focus on the fix, not the problem. We get to find out if LOVE, indeed, conquers all. We get to each see, you get to see! and experience, if activating and aligning with LOVE will bring about the world of peace and prosperity we all desire. To be in LOVE, no matter the externals, can be deeply challenging, but the rewards greatly outweigh the vigilance required to keep aligning with LOVE until that becomes the only choice you can make.
Nurture your love affair with the Earth herself and see for yourself how things improve.
