With Mercury entering Taurus, Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains how this impacts the week ahead
As Mercury enters Taurus on April 4, our analytical mind might slow down a little. Mercury wants to think their way through things, while Taurus values stability and practicality. During this time, you may be inclined to step up your financial planning game or contemplate what really makes up the foundation of your life.
This Thursday, shining in the sky is the full moon in Libra, an air sign that brings beauty and harmony to everything it touches. During this time, relationship matters could take the centre stage of our emotional world. One of the gifts Libra brings is balance, making this a good time to examine where in our lives we could use more fairness and objectivity, especially in personal relationships—how can we balance the scale of “me” and “the other” to achieve the true harmony that Libra ultimately seeks?
The full moon opposing “wounded healer” Chiron signals an invitation to reflect on the wounding in our lives, some of which fundamentally shape who we are as a person. With the support of Jupiter in play, the cosmos is calling for us to turn our pain into power, using all that transpired in the past as the doorway into our greater expansion. There is much wisdom to harness here if we choose to trust our intuition and follow the breadcrumbs of our emotions.
