Creative Expression:
Sun Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
The creative vitality of the Sun moves in a relaxed way through your birth sign, Taurus, influencing you to walk slowly and consistently through life. Your earthy spirit moves as though each step along the way must have solid ground underfoot. How might the Sun energy entice a Taurus like yourself to make use of intuition? Intuitive forces are welcomed if they promise to lead to practical results. Stability is the lifeline of your sign. Creative power builds slowly and releases with a force that can knock any obstacle out of your way. On occasion, the universe will ask you to allow the intuition it sends to get you to think and move with greater spontaneity. Why? So you might roam more freely to point the way to new, abundant turf. Intuition will entice you to drop your resistance to trying alternative ways to happiness and seeking greater challenges. There are times when intuitive forces will encourage your Venus-ruled sign to have greater belief in ideals and not fear fighting for them. The self-fulfillment that might result when you have faith in intuition is a life of balanced inner peace sitting alongside an outer life that is aligned with creative potential.
The Sun sign of Taurus solarizes you with a patient mental nature that aids you in developing sharp work skills. Your follow-through in meeting life challenges has few rivals. There are times when greater flexibility will get you further along the path to harmony in relationships, work, and finding inner peace.
The Sun is associated with the heart or central energy center in your body. Following your most heartfelt inner drives allows your intuition to come forward confidently and forcefully. When you balance give and take in your people connections, life feels more rewarding. Indulging in creative outlets helps integrate your mental, emotional, and psychological natures.
Shadow: Challenges
Stubbornness can be a problem for you when you resist change. Your intuition gets hijacked by not flowing with change or considering different courses of actions. People will be less supportive of your goals if you cannot compromise. A fear of change freezes your best plans for the future into ice cubes that are hard to thaw. Holding on to the past too tenaciously keeps a more productive future out of reach.
Another theme that inhibits your intuitive flow is low self-esteem. This keeps you from manifesting your most abundant ideas. When you don’t value your own opinions or goals, they lose creative power and you miss out on opportunities. Your intuition becomes lost in confusion.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The inner radiance of the Taurus Sun emanates from this meridian, transmitting bold confidence into your mental horizons. Solar intuition is a miraculous thing of beauty when you embrace the intuitive guidance being offered. Some people might perceive you to be playing it too safe while you explain this as saving for a rainy day or even two of them. Your self-expression is bolstered when your self-esteem is operating at a high level. Your ability to persevere through a tough challenge adds to your inner strength. An evolutionary intuitive synchronicity finds birth when you take a creative risk. Through balancing patience with taking action you attract success. Learning to reward those who love you and showing that you appreciate their emotional support solidifies your happiness.
Creating a Home and Expressing Feelings:
Moon Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
The Moon provides your very stabilizing Taurus Sun sign with a soothing energy. This is a compatible blend in that this watery planet encourages you not to doubt your intuitive instincts. It may be that when you are not sure which is the better of two choices, the Moon comes through for you, subtlety pointing the way to clarity. It is important to realize that your moods are the Moon’s way of communicating intuitively with you. Learning not to overreact to stressful situations but rather to patiently wait for an inner calmness allows your intuition to guide you toward more positive outcomes.
You were born under an astrological sign that likes to proceed a bit cautiously. The Moon may surprise you by pushing you to act more quickly on instinct to make sure you don’t miss out on opportunities. In other words, your inner landscape may get a ripple in it, like throwing a stone across a lake. Calmness and peace and comfort zones are fine, but there are times when you need to make a move in a new direction. You may find that you will not be as overcome by emotion and less filled with self-doubt if you act decisively.
There are ways to attract the Moon’s intuitive pull your way. What might they be? The home is a Moon connection, so it is important that the place where you live reflects your Taurus values and especially your need for beauty and comfort. The natural surroundings and landscaping need to support your intuition and be in sync with your emotional needs.
The city or community in which you reside must feel like it gives you a sense of abundance. Taurus is a pragmatic sign, so you need to feel that your standard of living is supported by your location. Having opportunities to put your practical know-how to work strengthens your intuition. There is a voice within you, a sixth sense related to the Moon meridian that is trying to guide you to make your home a castle that makes your self-esteem a powerful entity.
Shadow: Challenges
If you lose touch with lunar intuition, there are usually signals telling you this, one being that you find yourself clinging too much to the familiar and feel afraid to take a risk. Caution is okay. After all, you are a Taurus and know that taking chances can get a person into trouble. However, if you never try something new, you miss out on fresh experiences that stimulate you into new insights.
If you happen to notice that you are looking for too much in material things, you may feel like something is lacking in your life. It is natural for a Taurus to take pride in what he or she owns. There is nothing wrong with earning a good living that pays the bills. It is only when you start believing that accumulating more than you need will keep you secure that you get into trouble.
Another signal that you may not have a clear use of your intuition is that you might fall into denying yourself rewards. You could be displaying a poverty consciousness. This only leaves you feeling sad. Depriving yourself of pleasure or items that bring you comfort from a belief of not feeling you deserve a better life actually blocks your intuitive power.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Moon meridian offers you a wonderful intuitive flow that guides you to find the inner and outer harmony you seek. Furnishing and decorating your home with items that symbolize your core beliefs is a way of energizing your intuition. Finding a home and location that offer you the abundance you require keeps you feeling fulfilled.
The Moon offers you the emotional strength you need to meet everyday challenges. Having the right supportive lovers, family, and friends in your life helps you maintain the mental and emotional balance you seek. Letting a soul mate know your inner world brings forth more intuitive clarity for you. Getting past your inner anxiety about losing control brings you closer to the inner clarity you desire. Moving past your comfort zones to experiment with new experiences bring you into an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity.
Mental Insights:
Mercury Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
Mercury speeds up your thought process to act faster on an intuitive instinct. Even if you tend to prefer a slower pace on the mental level, this breezy planet gets you to learn information in a brisk manner. Your business and work ambition does not skip a beat when riding the upbeat waves of the Mercury meridian.
There are times when Mercury will send you messages to change directions fast. Your natural inclination as a Taurus might be to resist altering a plan even if new options offer greater opportunity. Mercury allows you to see more possibilities that never before seemed possible.
As a Taurus, you may not react well to stress. Finding peace and quiet is more your style. You may have noticed that your best mental energy comes forward when you find a sense of calm. You like to feel in control of situations. The interesting thing about Mercury working for you intuitively is that it may become more powerful in the midst of a crisis or serious challenge. It is then that this mentally invigorating entity comes alive for you in a real way. So don’t fear some adversity or upset to your normal routine. It could be that when you are disrupted out of your normal thought waves, the real magic of this curiosity-producing planet will manifest for you.
Shadow: Challenges
Your intellect will grow dull if you don’t give it regular exercise. The intuitive clarity offered by Mercury will lack sharpness if you don’t challenge yourself to learn new information. Staying too attached to the same surroundings lessens your chances of grasping new growth. Giving yourself various types of stimuli opens up your expression of this wonderful planetary meridian.
Doubting your ability to perform as well as others in the work arena blocks your intuitive ability to learn new skills. There are times when you will need to leave caution behind and ride the wings of this messenger of the gods to exciting creative heights. Hiding your light under a bushel, as the old saying goes, takes away from your best intuitive perceptions.
The biggest impediment to getting full mileage from Mercury is having too many negative tapes playing in your head. Regularly replacing these self-destructive thought patterns with positive messages allows the bridge to Mercury’s intuitive beauty to come through for you.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
It is okay to analyze circumstances until you feel comfortable proceeding. It is your Taurus patience that makes a nice blend with mentally fast Mercury. The two play off each other to allow you to maximize your efforts. Mercury likes to dart in several directions at once, so your Taurus nature gives Mercury some needed focus. There are times when you will benefit from allowing Mercury to spontaneously guide you to new goals.
Learning new skills and letting your mind have fun sifting through the information highway awakens your intellect to new insights. Traveling on the mental or physical level provides the added spark to make the Mercury meridian a close ally and take you into an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity. It is amazing how simply exposing your mind to new subjects or a change of scenery stimulates clearer intuition.
Networking with others keeps you abreast of current trends. Why might this be important? It may be just the vehicle to let you see the path toward new creative possibilities. The more you maintain an eagerness to grow mentally, the greater the chance of empowering your Mercury intuition.
Relationship Tendencies:
Venus Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
Venus and your Taurus Sun sign are a match made in heaven. Why? Because Venus is the ruler of Taurus, giving you a natural affinity to utilize her intuitive gifts. Venus is best to use in cultivating wholesome partnerships and making friends with people who share your value system. This diplomatic giant of the universe even helps you get along with those who may not agree with all of your opinions.
When you need to calm your nerves, this planetary agent of relaxation is willing to be of assistance. She will guide you to stay cool in the middle of a crisis so you can make contact with clearer intuitive reasoning powers. Your decisiveness gains strength when you don’t feel so overwhelmed by obstacles in your path. So in soothing your nervous system, whether through eating enjoyable food or escaping to enjoy some entertainment, you empower your intuition.
Don’t forget to reward yourself for completing a difficult job. There is magical intuition that comes alive when you do this. Being in the company of those with whom you enjoy spending time is another way for your intuition to come through this planetary meridian. When your chemistry combines with lovers, friends, or family members, the alchemy energy produced stimulates you to be more intuitive.
Shadow: Challenges
How can a match made in heaven between Venus and your Taurus Sun sign possibly go wrong? If you grow too possessive of others in controlling ways, it lessens your intuitive ability. You won’t really perceive others clearly if you act in this way. Your intuition loses its strength as it is siphoned off by your relationships being out of balance.
If you allow yourself to be taken advantage of by people who don’t value your needs, you fall into a dysfunctional pattern. Relationships either bolster your intuitive power or hinder it. If you sacrifice your own goals to others, you lose your intuitive way in the world. This causes you a lot of emotional disorientation.
Making enough money to survive and to buy extra items for fun is something you deserve. If you lose sight of this, you weaken your intuitive sharpness. It is equally limiting if you try to hide your sorrow in buying things you don’t need. Running away from problems by escaping into material things weakens your intuitive gifts.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Venus meridian is a rich valley of intuition ready to reward your relationship choices. The key is to make the right ones. If you follow this intuitive highway correctly, you unlock your relationship fulfillment in a heartbeat. It is important that you seek equality in your partnerships. This makes sure that your intuition is operating at a high level. You attract more of what you need when being true to your highest values, which is an important ingredient to getting this meridian to work on your behalf.
Balancing a desire for creature comforts with dealing with problems as they surface is vital to your happiness. Finding a balance between taking the path of least resistance and facing life head-on empowers your intuition. There is a natural desire in your Taurus Sun sign to enjoy peace and quiet. Your intuition guides you smoothly when you find quiet moments to listen carefully.
It is in pushing to explore your talents and showing them to the world that you tap into the essence of your intuition. Believing in your values and highest ideals elevates you into an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity that has an endless payoff with no limitations.
Initiating Action:
Mars Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
Don’t look back is how to get into the swing of the Mars meridian. This highly energizing, dynamic fireball of a planet sends you forward with tremendous thrust. Your intuition ignites like a rocket. A Taurus like you may be moving slowly toward a goal. If you let your passion express itself, then guess what? You are only a breath or two away from running like a person possessed with positive zeal toward a goal.
The trick with this Mars meridian to get it to work for you rather than against is to patiently plan a strategy. But what if the immediate present calls for you to act. You may need to summon the courage and scrap some of the steps in the plan. In other words trust your gut feeling and go for it. Meeting life demands directly brings out your best. This is when the rubber hits the road in this meridian as the current in it is asking you to be decisive. You can edit what you have done later.
Mars didn’t accidently get called the “angry red planet” for nothing. In astrology, Mars points to how we express anger and assertion. When you say what is on your mind, you likely will find the intuitive power of the Mars meridian at your fingertips. When you show compassion and empathy for others even when expressing strong opinions, they are more likely to embrace your ideas more positively. If you show patience even while in a hurry, great insight accompanies your actions.
Shadow: Challenges
Impatience with no insight is the potential downfall of misusing this Mars meridian. So try not to go there too often with this attitude. Your goals will stay out of reach and the future will never get here the way you hoped. You will be running in circles and on the road to nowhere. Ignoring the signposts that say slow down leads to health problems and disappointment. The illusion is that you are moving briskly toward solutions, but in reality you are creating problems. Why? Because you are denying the magic of a wonderful intuition tapping you on the shoulder but not getting your clearest attention.
If you lack assertiveness, it might be because you depend on others to fulfill your identity. This will continue to be a problem until you turn this pattern around. This does run in the opposite direction from how Mars wants to work for you. Rather than letting this energy push you forward assertively, it is getting drowned out in a path of denial. You miss out on life’s rewards and abundant gifts when you relinquish too much power to others.
Hastily throwing anger at others without considering the consequences is not in your best interest. You don’t create compromise or win-win situations by adopting a strong-arm tactic. People will want to fight you more than join forces if you are constantly perceived as an adversary. Usually this reflects a lack of trusting your intuition about others and being out of touch with your own emotions.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Mars meridian picks you up on a rainy day and lifts you into the sunshine faster than in any of the other meridians. It only takes some patience, honest introspection, and a clear view of the future. This is a very direct energy planet influencing you to deal with problems as they surface. However, it is also important to remember that your Taurus patience might be needed to get the best solutions.
Tuning in to your emotions is the pathway to get a fast link to the best this meridian has to offer. Feelings in many ways are the footsteps internally that ignite the intuitive power of the Mars meridian so that you can be a success in the world. The courage and decisiveness you seek are embedded in this meridian.
When you channel your anger and passion constructively, you are knocking on the door of an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity. Developing the mental eagerness to keep enlarging your life philosophy attracts the success you desire. Your relationships flourish the more you realize the impact of your actions on others. Your identity deepens as you figure out how to fulfill your own needs and not lose sight of those you love.
Expanding Knowledge:
Jupiter Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
Being overly confident is a wonderful problem to have, don’t you think? Happy-go-lucky Jupiter does not believe in waiting for you to feel intuitive but rather is constantly sending you waves of positive energy to move forward forcefully. This fiery spirit attempts to lift your mind above your current perceived obstacles to happiness and point you toward more abundant possibilities.
Luck sometimes occurs by accident. Then again, it may be more determined by the effort you put into making your dreams come true. This enthusiastic planet beams stimulating energy into your thinking to inspire you to trust your intuition. Jupiter symbolizes the essence of faith or believing you can accomplish whatever you plan to make into a reality. There is no looking back when Jupiter pushes you to gaze into the future.
What types of activities might awaken your Jupiter intuition? Travel to places that offer you new learning gets you to think and feel in new ways. Sometimes changing your surroundings even for a short time period gets your mind to seek alternative possibilities for self-growth. Studying and reading attract Jupiter’s intuitive magic to assist you in finding ways to increase your earning power. Jupiter and abundance often walk hand in hand.
Building a solid present to enhance your potential for a happier future is part of the Jupiter repertoire. As a Taurus, you desire a life path that you can count on whether the chips are up or down. You prefer reliable people that you perceive as dependable in times of trouble. You would rather work in a job that has long-term potential. When you reach out to Jupiter, the sky really is the limit, as the old saying goes. Keeping your mind bathing in positive energy accelerates your happiness and success potentials.
Shadow: Challenges
How can a planet offering so much hope possibly cause any problems in your life? If you forget to believe in your potential to be a success, your self-confidence takes a dip. It is then that you lose out on Jupiter’s intuitive beauty. Self-worth for a Taurus like yourself is a must to feel happiness. If you don’t value yourself enough, then you don’t get the results you desire. You settle for less in relationships and in your work. This is at cross-purposes with the Jupiter meridian, with its land full of hope and good luck. This planet offers you this instantaneously when you transcend negative thought patterns.
Inertia occurs if you lose your focus on the cherished plans you want to make happen. Rather than riding the inspiring Jupiter waves of energy, you are stuck in self-doubt. This keeps you from the fulfillment you seek. Your cup is not anywhere near half full. Jupiter tends to expand a positive thought into endless possibilities. It has the opposite effect and increases a negative obsession if you don’t direct this giant of the sky in a positive direction.
Your health suffers if you dwell on what is making you sad or less than fulfilled. Finding comfort in food or your favorite passions is a good thing. Running to escape from problems into excess indulgence works against you. When you lack the faith to face life directly and live in denial, it takes away from the gifts Jupiter could deliver to you.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Jupiter meridian awakens you to a fresh way of perceiving the world. Your intuition learns many new ways to keep strengthening in confidence when aligning with this cosmic force of optimism. Finding a belief system that guides you through times of plenty or lack is the reward of being true to Jupiter’s influence. Make this planet a constant friend through improving your learning skills. Keep up with current trends and you will intuitively discover a business or career idea that will increase your earning power.
When you balance your own goals with those of your favorite and most influential people, life is more rewarding. You can’t please everyone. Trying to do so proves frustrating. Keep your expectations reasonable but your positive energy upbeat. You attract the luck and success you need when being open to opposing viewpoints. It is when you are willing to travel beyond the familiar borders of your own everyday thinking that an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity infiltrates your thought patterns and guides you to great self-growth.
Career and Ambition:
Saturn Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
Saturn and your Sun sign, Taurus, have a natural affinity for each other. Why is this? Both are firmly embedded in the earth element, giving you an extra edge to tune in to this planet’s intuitive gifts when it comes to marketing your abilities. The serious determination symbolized by Saturn is an equal match for the persistent side of you that won’t give up on a plan without a good fight. There is a strategy dimension that aligns your mind with the Saturn meridian that serves you well. The patience that is frequently displayed by you actually deepens in purpose when you make use of the intuitive power in this meridian energy.
When you learn to navigate wisely through obstacles, Saturn will guide you in a clear way to make the right decisions. Your very deliberate movement to proceed forward cautiously gets a strong push from Saturn when you are willing to take a risk. So it is in your best interest to trust your ability to assess a situation and put your best foot forward.
Past-life patterns are part of the Saturn experience. Learning from the past is wise. It fills you with solid knowledge that is used to make your life more fulfilling. In some past incarnations, you were too controlling. In other lives you did not assume enough power. Conquering low self-esteem or not trusting others can be achieved in the present. This life is a chance to find the right equilibrium. Learning to be more flowing or even learning from past mistakes in negotiations provides very valuable insights. Flexibility in your thinking attracts greater success in all areas of your life. Saturn assists you in knowing when to stick to a direction and when to compromise.
Obstacles and challenges strengthen your resolve. Keeping a sense of humor helps you maintain a positive attitude. You can’t be a success all of the time. When you show humility in this planetary meridian, you actually have an easier road to making contact with the intuitive gifts of Saturn. Like a tree that bends when facing strong winds, you make adjustments to get the best results.
You can excel in any field you want to master. The key is becoming aware of the resources it will take to make your dream come true. Accepting the possibility of delayed gratification gives you the confidence to proceed with a sense of purpose. You feel less anxiety when you have a well-developed plan. However, your career and business mind becomes more intuitive when you travel outside of your comfort zones and accept a new challenge.
Shadow: Challenges
Rigidity is your biggest nemesis in tapping into Saturn’s intuitive airspace. When you are stuck in the mud and resist change, you sink deeper into trouble. Your intuitive flow gets lost to everything from panic to a feeling that life is out of control. The focusing power of the Saturn meridian becomes pointed in directions that limit your imagination.
Denying your emotions is another wrong way to express Saturn energy. People will distance themselves from you. When you become as guarded as the rings that encircle Saturn, life is not much fun for you. It becomes difficult for your closest lovers, family, and friends to connect with you. You feel isolated and very alone but refuse to reach out to someone for help. Your job and relationships lessen in enjoyment.
Karmic patterns are reenacted when you negatively connect with Saturn. Often it is related to fear. There is too much attachment to material things and not enough balance with your highest values. Past-life tendencies need not continue to be a problem. However, if you deny there is a problem, these issues tend to resurface. Your self-esteem may have been too low in certain past incarnations and you are getting a chance to get it right this time around. If you gravitate to not valuing your own needs, it does limit your options. Other past-life themes include being too worried about job success and carrying too much responsibility for others. When you don’t delegate or let someone know you need help, you get weighed down by being too responsible.
Letting obstacles stop you from making your most cherished aspirations a reality is another issue. You could give up before you give a plan enough time to be a success. When you focus too much on the whole job it could scare you. Forgetting that everything begins with a first step will keep you from getting started.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Saturn meridian offers you many outlets for your work skills. It is the most powerful landscape to get you moving forcefully to put your abilities to work in a very focused manner. The staying power you find when tapping into Saturn’s intuitive dimensions is without limits. When you show flexibility in your commitments to people and plans you find great happiness. Accepting change is the best lubricant to flowing with Saturn influences.
You turn liabilities quickly into assets by learning from the past. Being willing to recognize your faults is just as important as knowing your assets. People respond better to you when they perceive you as willing to compromise. Your follow-through and determination to see a plan through to the end is admirable. It strengthens when you tap into the intuition residing in the Saturn meridian. It allows you to see you are never truly alone and connects you to an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity.
Past life patterns empower you rather than take away from your successes. How? When you overcome a compulsive drive to accumulate you relax into your intuitive power. Developing higher beliefs that balance your inner and outer selves allows you to integrate past life karmic patterns harmoniously into your current life. When you become a team player not only focused on your own needs you bring people to support your goals. When you rise above low self-worth the roads to fulfillment are closer to a reality than you might imagine.
Future Goals and Inventiveness:
Uranus Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
If your nervous system is excited more than usual, then you could be a Taurus tapping into the electrical grid of the dynamic and unpredictable Uranus intuition. Be ready for a surprise or two and maybe even a wild ride of adventure. Just as Uranus spins in a unique way on its own axis far up in the sky, it influences you to look at the world through replenished eyes. If you are looking for a new door to walk through, this is the right meridian to explore.
Your relationships could begin or even end suddenly. Knowing what you want from others becomes more of an urgent need when you start interacting with Uranian intuition. It is as though you really knew what you needed all of the time. The past does not seem quite as worrisome. This meridian has a way of getting a Taurus like you, who probably holds firmly onto the present as though it is the only reality, to loosen your grasp and look more excitedly toward the future.
Your inventive mind points you into new career directions or to change the way you operate a business. Sensing current trends keeps you one step ahead of the competition and what the public desires. This is a meridian that connects you directly to the pulse of a city or country.
This is definitely the planetary terrain in which to spice up your life. When you live life with an attitude full of openness to alternative thinking, there is no end to the opportunities you create.
Giving yourself the freedom to develop new perceptions is stimulating for your mind. Changing your daily routines once in a while allows your intuition a greater chance to put this interesting planet to work on your behalf.
Shadow: Challenges
If you miss the boat with the Uranus meridian, you feel like your goals are in reverse gear. This is such a future-oriented energy that you wonder why your hopes and dreams are not manifesting. It could be that you are getting talked out of your ideas. Another possibility is that you are changing direction too many times, meaning you lack focus. This does run contrary to the consistent tendency of your normal Taurus inclinations. If you rebel unpredictably too often, your sense of direction might get lost. Also, if you do not concentrate long enough on a goal, it will not come to fruition.
Another negative issue that can surface if you are out of sync with Uranus energy is that your relationships lack balance. You attract very self-centered people who are not aware of your needs. You don’t want to try to live out your independence through other people and neglect your own freedom needs. Another possibility is that you could be the one not paying enough attention to what a lover or friend requires to be happy. This creates great tension in your relationships, sparking a lack of cooperation.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Uranus meridian moves you forward into an exhilarating reality like no other meridian delivers. If you need your mind stimulated, then tuning in to the intuition offered by exciting Uranus is the path to take.
Gaining new insights into a situation occurs through this meridian. Your inventive mind is in the right wheelhouse with Uranus. Your career can be reinvented in ways you never imagined. This is the planet that relocates your mind, body, and spirit suddenly into an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity. Making new friends who share your view of the world may occur. Being exposed to ideas that open you to new perceptions is very valuable. This is a meridian that changes your life to such a degree that you never want to go back to the way it was before.
Creative Imagination and Idealism:
Neptune Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
Neptune, the cosmic inspirer, takes you dreamily along a path that fills you with a new intuitive vision. Your idealism gets rejuvenated in this meridian. If you need emotional healing, then you have come to the right place. This is an atmosphere where dreams of a better today and tomorrow do find birth.
A romantic love nature becomes enlivened when tuning in to the Neptune influence. An existing relationship finds new vows that bond you closer together. The distance between your hearts disappears. Falling in love all over again is possible.
Neptune takes you in search of a soul mate. The desire to find someone with similar values is stimulated through this planetary meridian. You sense a magic in the air guiding you toward a person. Your belief that you can find the right partner is intensified.
Taurus is known for having a pragmatic mind. You are more concerned about material welfare than some of the other astrological signs are, which is fine. Neptune shows you how to integrate a spiritual longing and to rise above a fear of lack or loss. It is the intuitive power sent by this planet that fills you with the faith to transcend a focus on what you don’t have.
Your creative instincts get a lift through this meridian, which contains a great deal of aesthetic knowledge. Your psyche aligns itself with the creative power of Neptune. You only need to surrender your resistance to be taken into this energy and go with the dynamic flow.
Neptune grabs your conscious mind by the hand and walks it through the fields of the collective unconscious. You are introduced to a new cause or learning material that strengthens your self-confidence and helps elevate your talents. This is a watery meridian dripping with symbols that quench your mind’s thirst for new perceptions. You only need to display a willingness to be shown the way to greater intuitive clarity.
Shadow: Challenges
Perfection is a challenge. It could surface if you don’t manage your intuitive energy in this meridian. It leaks out if you don’t know when to stop trying to make something too perfect. Frustration is the result. The stability your Taurus Sun sign relishes is destabilized when you don’t get a strong handle on perfection drives.
Denial manifests in various ways if you misread Neptune intuitive energy. You may refuse to acknowledge that you are in a dysfunctional relationship. Sweeping problems under a rug only prolongs the agony. Denying the insights you have about a person in order to maintain a partnership does not serve you well. Your fulfillment is far below what you deserve.
If you expect too much unrealistically from yourself or others, it won’t make you happy either. The beauty of Neptune energy lifts you to seek a better life. It is when you are confused into thinking there is a perfect person waiting for you that you stay disappointed. Divine discontent in search of the right career or job keeps you from patiently furthering your skills and enjoying what you have accomplished. You could find yourself moving too quickly from one job to another and not developing a long-term strategy for success.
Material things can be an illusion in that you could look for too much happiness in them. Your higher values get so diluted that you operate in the world in a very uncertain way. The inner compass you require to keep you on course loses its reliability.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Neptune meridian has a vibration that has subtle ringtones of intuition that are not always easy to contact. But if you quiet your mind, you can tune in to their essence. Is it worth the trouble? Yes. There are treasures here that are hard to put a price tag on, even for a Taurus like yourself who likes to know the value of things well ahead of time. If you are wanting more inner peace, then this is a meridian worth investigating. If you desire more creativity, you certainly don’t want to overlook this intuitive paradise.
Finding a renewed sense of purpose is easier to cultivate through Neptune. This ancient god of the oceans has a way of whispering to those places in your mind that need reawakening. Neptune lifts your consciousness to pursue more inspiring goals. You don’t need to change the world but perhaps could use a refueling of emotion toward a future filled with self-growth.
The search for a soul mate is ignited by this planetary meridian. Your wanting to share your life with someone who is able to read your unspoken language is nurtured by the Neptune influence. Finding a greater life purpose is part of the package when you walk toward the offerings of this gentle yet powerful intuitive teacher of the sky. When you are open to the magic of Neptune and allow this energy to shapeshift your thinking into a greater intuitive awareness, an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity can occur.
Personal Empowerment and Passion:
Pluto Meridian Activating Your Taurus Intuition
Light: Strengths
The planet Pluto and your Sun sign, Taurus, have a lot in common. One big thing is that both have excellent money instincts. This comes in handy in the business world and gives you a natural doorway into Pluto intuition. Your passion to market your skills comes very much alive in this meridian. Another theme you share with Pluto is staying power, meaning you can fight to the end to finish what you set out to accomplish. Some may accuse you of being stubborn, and at times rightfully so, but you see this behavior as rugged determination.
Tuning in to Pluto guides you to greater patience, which points you toward self-mastery. Being willing to go beneath the surface of things deepens your resolve to understand yourself on the deepest of levels. Investigating life’s mysteries ignites new insights. Facing your fears prepares you for whatever challenges life sends your way.
As a general rule, Taurus is not known for showing emotions easily. When connecting with Pluto energy, you may choose to share your hidden feelings with people you trust. Why do this? Because it empowers you. Also, it allows others to come closer when you reveal your inner world.
When you align with Pluto intuition, your ability to create a feeling of abundance in your life is greater. Whether in the eyes of the world you are sized up as rich or poor, your own self-confidence soars to a higher level. This sustains you whether in times of plenty or of lack. Even if you need to start over after a loss, your survival instincts will carry you into a new start when you connect with Pluto’s embracing arms. The positive memories from the past can propel you forward to make a better present. You sense a great rebirth.
Forgiving others serves as a healing force for old wounds. When you let go of negative memories, your creative power magnifies. This is part of the magic of Pluto. Rising above your anger and resentments allows an inner transformation that puts you in the driver seat to create a more positive life. There is no limit to how far you can go when you make peace with the past. This is how you attract the success you seek.
Shadow: Challenges
What keeps you from experiencing the true essence of Pluto intuition? One thing is a fear of your emotions. It is your feelings that open the door to Pluto. If you are in the habit of not expressing how you feel to others, then you don’t connect with the full power of this meridian. If you try to overpower others through manipulation in order to get your own way, it keeps you from the beauty of this meridian energy. It is emotional insecurity that blocks you from enjoying the fulfillment found in this terrain.
If you surrender too much of your power, your life lacks balance, and this is another way you miss the boat with Pluto. It is in the equal sharing of power with people that you align yourself with the intuitive beauty found in this meridian. When you don’t claim your power, you attract people into your life who desire to control you. This prevents you from realizing your own dreams. You will only be living out the goals of others and neglecting your own.
Power struggles only get in the way of receiving the best Pluto has to offer you. There is nothing wrong with negotiating in business. However, if you are constantly fighting with others, you will become drained and waste a lot of time and resources in the process.
Passion is a good thing, but if you become obsessed with your desires, your life gets out of balance. Too much attachment to material things lets you down if you lose them. Having a solid higher-belief value system keeps you on course to greater fulfillment. Self-honesty is the road to the clarity you seek.
Running away from conflict takes away from your personal power. In dealing with situations in a more direct manner, you find greater self-reassurance. Your creative intensity finds more outlets to show the world what you can do.
Dawn: Maximizing Your Potential
The Pluto meridian is a passionate place that stimulates your Taurus determination to display your abilities. The intuition in this landscape is rich with the motivating energy that can excite you into exploring new skills. The researcher and entrepreneur in you flourishes when you tap into Pluto intuition. There is an innate drive to dive beneath the surface of things that springs forth from this meridian energy.
Pluto rules Scorpio, the opposite sign of Taurus. Pluto is the cosmic mirror, or mirroring agent, for your sign. How might this work? This opposing factor allows Pluto to beam back to you a strategy for keeping your power balanced with others. Visualize Pluto on the opposite end of a seesaw from your Taurus energy trying to guide you in keeping your own agenda empowered while you do your best to be supportive of others. Pluto is enhancing your ability to push for your own agenda in life while at the same time keeping the goals of those you care about in sight.
Psychological strength is enhanced when you connect with Pluto intuition. There are levels of self-mastery you attain in channeling your creative potential that produce an evolutionary intuitive synchronicity. Remember, if you are in need of a rebirth or need the perseverance to push through obstacles, this meridian is always there for you, just waiting for you to use it.
