After seven years of turning your life upside down and inside out, Uranus leaves Taurus on July 7th. It's only natural to say “good riddance” but Uranus's departure is more than a passing storm. You've changed fundamentally. No longer fixed in your ways, you've grown more open-minded, inventive, and even spontaneous as a result of its tenure in your sign. Now you could pick up the pieces and go back to the way life used to be back in 2018 or you can leave behind the things you've outgrown and embrace a future that's yet to be mapped out and promises to be infinitely more fulfilling.

Ruling Planet Venus conjunct Uranus at 29 degrees Taurus on July 4th will feel like things are definitely over in a longstanding relationship or association; but, you shouldn't count on it – mostly because these two planets will meet again at the exact same degree on April 23, 2026. Now whether you'll be struggling with second thoughts, unfinished business, or it takes that long to extricate yourself from a contract or commitment remains to be seen, but until then it pays to follow the golden rule to never burn a bridge because you don't know when you may have need to cross back over it again.

Nothing guarantees success like working with like-minded people. Whether it's a professional venture or a neighborhood project, it looks like the Sun/Mars sextile on June 26th will bring together a group who wouldn't have typically sought each other out. Not only will this experience make you proud of your own contribution, it will also generate a strong sense of community – kind of like a modern day barn raising. This feeling of fellowship is important given today's tendency towards siloing. Although this project may be completed almost as fast as it begins, there's no saying you can't work in conjunction again – and on a regular basis.

Your focus is going to be on work and money this week. Whether it's a job you're interviewing for, a salary figure you've set your sights on, or a project that you feel personally invested in this will be all that you can think about. It's important to remember in times like these that – like your namesake – you can get bullish. Let other people talk, be open to their input, and embrace the spirit of cooperation. What they say may not match what you have in mind, but it will expand your horizons and show you other ways to get what you want.

You're used to being scolded for rocking the boat. It wasn't always like this. In fact you can remember a time when you were the shining example of consistency and stability, but that was before Uranus entered your sign in 2018. Things have been upside down since and though Taureans don't typically rabble-rouse, you've no problem going to the mat if that's what it takes. What's unexpected about this final Mars/Uranus square in Leo and Taurus is instead of being reprimanded, you'll be praised. Could it be that a superior is finally coming around to your way of thinking? Perhaps. Or maybe they're tired of fighting.

Venus finally enters Taurus on June 6th. This will elicit a collective sigh of relief. For weeks Venus has been traveling back and forth in fiery Aries. This brought sudden break-ups, make-ups, and then break-ups again. Things have been so on-again off-again that it was a miracle if anyone could get through a day without arguing. Thankfully Taurus is an earth sign and earth brings stability and security. Wars thin out, good feelings between trade partners return and people can go about their business and do the things they need to do in peace. Venus will be in Taurus from June 6th through July 4th.

One of your great gifts is showing people how to do something when their mental wheels freeze up. Whether it's walking them through a software problem, a do-it-yourself repair, or a bureaucratic maze you have a way of putting things simply without making anyone feel condescended to. It's a great talent and you should never underestimate it. This week you'll have an opportunity to show it off to your advantage. Be humble in your approach and patient when asked to explain things repeatedly. Don't give up until you see the lightbulb go off and you'll win a new fan (and possibly more).

The wonderful thing about the Sun/Neptune sextile on May 22d is that it calls us to our better selves. We may have had good reason to sidestep an apology at first, to stifle a generous gesture, or to let someone continue believing a lie because we decided they couldn't handle the truth, but the time for that has passed and the reason no longer holds. It might feel awkward contacting a loved one or associate about something that happened so long ago, but you'd be surprised by what a relief coming clean can be. You won't earn their ire; if anything you'll win their thanks.

On May 17th, the Sun conjoins revolutionary Uranus for the last time in Taurus. If you look back over the past six years you'll see that every April/May period either brought breakdowns or breakthroughs. Sometimes you were under the wheel and sometimes you were on top of it. Undoubtedly you wondered if there was anything to be gained from all this craziness and this week you'll get your answer. It's often said that Uranus delights in chaos; but there's a reason why it keeps upsetting the status quo. It's to get you to live a life that's richer than the one you would have settled for.

A sextile is perhaps the most underrated aspect in Astrology. Often treated like the trine's kid sister, a sextile is more conversational than unconditionally supportive. It acknowledges that every planet has its differences which is why it's always searching for ways for two planets to work together. It's something that will become abundantly clear on May 6th when a Venus/Pluto sextile shows you meeting with someone you don't see eye to eye with but who's in a position to help you get what you want. And sextiles being sextiles, it only stands to reason that you’re here to help this person get what they want too.
