Your 2024 Taurus Season Horoscope: What’s in Store for You, Based on Your Sign

With sunnier days, increasingly temperate breezes and the promise of summer fun right around the corner, the latter half of April and first half of May can’t help but be a moment we often want to hit pause and revel in. And if you’ve been itching to slow down, be more present and soak up all the beauty of springtime, this is precisely the season to do just that — not only because it’s mid-spring, but because it’s Taurus season 2024. Taurus season occurs annually when the sun moves through the second sign of the zodiac, symbolized by the Bull.

Because the fixed earth sign is ruled by Venus, the planet of romance and beauty, you’ll likely be more inclined to prioritize languorous, pleasurable, harmonious experiences. This season also encourages you to take your time moving through life and to engage with the world around us through all five senses, just like the Bull. It does bear noting, however, that Taurus is one of the fixed signs, known for being resolute as well as stubborn, so you could also be less interested in big change. But this year, thanks to a rare planetary meet-up between Jupiter and Uranus, we’re all being invited to shake things up. Here, all you need to know about Taurus season 2024 so you can make the most of it.

When is Taurus season?

Every year, you can count on Taurus season to occur from approximately April 19-20 to May 20-21. In 2024, Taurus season will be in effect from April 19 to May 20.

What to expect during Taurus season

In general, when the sun makes its annual journey through Taurus, we’re all more inclined to be more deliberate and take our sweet time moving through life. Given how speedy life can feel during fiery, dynamic Aries season and how fast-paced you tend to be in general, Taurean energy can feel like a major switch.

And because Taurus is ruled by Venus, the Goddess of Love’s terrain — relationships, beauty, harmony, values and earning — are all themes that are more likely to become a focus during Taurus season. You could be more apt to pursue a romantic connection, experiment with your personal style or dive into self-work to bolster your self-worth, which could influence your bottom line.

At the same time, Taurus, like fellow fixed signs Leo (fixed fire), Scorpio (fixed water) and Aquarius (fixed air), can struggle with all or nothing or polarized thinking. Going with the flow is more challenging for the Bull, a sign that prefers to stick with what they know and are cozy with. For that reason, you could be less inclined to take chances and get out of your comfort zone and more likely to dig your heels in, even if adopting a more open-minded perspective and pivoting might be in your best interest. That said, Taurus season is an opportunity to become more aware of how and when you may benefit from fostering flexibility.

In 2024, Taurus season will kick off a thrilling new chapter

On April 20, just one day after Taurus season begins, Jupiter, the planet of luck and abundance, will pair up with Uranus, the planet of electrifying, out-of-the-blue change and revolution, in Taurus. If that sounds like a major game-changer, that’s because it absolutely is. The last time Jupiter met Uranus was in 2011, and the last time the two were together in Taurus was 1941. The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction will set the stage for surprises and opportunities that could lead to personal growth, and it’ll also launch new beginnings and a new, 14-year cycle for society related to relationships, bringing in money, and our perception of beauty.

Taurus season 2024 will allow you to build momentum toward a vision you’ve been reflecting on

On April 25, Mercury, the planet of communication, transportation and technology, will move forward in Aries after its three-week retrograde. Since April 1, you’ve likely felt stuck in reverse in many ways, unable to move the ball forward despite perhaps simultaneously feeling super-fired up. But as Mercury moves forward, especially in action-oriented Aries, you can finally gain traction, sharing your biggest ideas and hitting the gas in order to push forward on related game plans. Just watch out for impulsivity, feeling overly competitive or moving so quickly that you fail to take note of crucial details.

The lunar events of Taurus season 2024 spotlight your self-worth and most intimate relationships

On April 23, the full moon falls in Taurus’ opposite sign, Scorpio, which is co-ruled by Mars, the planet of action and sex, and Pluto, the planet of transformation. Associated with the Eighth House of Intimacy, Scorpio challenges us to go beneath the surface to acknowledge and address topics that might be a bit unnerving to explore but that can only bring us closer to our nearest and dearest. Scorpio also revels in investigating, excavating and swimming in deep emotional waters, so you could be prepared to have a crucial heart-to-heart or make a bold move within a close bond.

By comparison, the May 7 new moon in Taurus will encourage you to get more clear on the simple, practical things you need to enhance your inner peace. These things could be related to one-on-one relationships or they might originate within you and be tied to your values, given Taurus’ association with the Second House of Income and Self-Worth. Either way, this harmonious moment ushers in a fresh start and chance to set a pragmatic goal.

Here, how Taurus season will affect you based on your sign. (Be sure to read both your sun and your rising sign if you know it. If you don't, you can find it in your birth chart or by using this CafeAstrology calculator.)

Taurus season 2024: Aries

While the vitality-bringing sun is in your money zone, you’ll enjoy a surge of confidence you can apply toward income-related endeavors.

You’ll have the wind in your sails especially once Mercury moves forward in your sign from April 25 to May 15.

Taurus

Thanks to the sun’s presence in your sign this month, you’re ready to move from backstage to the limelight. Last month, you might have been more inclined to prioritize solo time and rest, but now, you’re feeling pioneering, dynamic, and prepared to take your work, your relationships, and your wellness routine to the next level. A lot of this is owed to the fact that you are especially in tune with your identity and sense of self. And celebrating both proves empowering and success-fueling!

Taurus season 2024: Gemini

While the confident sun moves through your spirituality zone, you could be less inclined to say “yes” to every invite or engage in all of the conversations, per usual. Instead, it may feel more fulfilling to zero in on your self-care plan, add in more time for rest, and meditate on what you want to achieve in the coming weeks. This could seem out of character, to be sure, but it’ll serve you best, especially because your season — and moment to shine — is right around the corner.

Cancer

While the vitality-boosting sun moves through your networking zone, you’ll be less of a homebody than usual and more interested in spending extra time with all of the people who you consider part of your community. As a cardinal sign, you are very much an initiator, so tap into that strength by proposing group projects or get-togethers for your larger friend group. You’ll feel more connected. And as Mercury moves forward in your career zone from April 25 to May 15, teamwork could also lead to well-deserved recognition.

Taurus season 2024: Aquarius

Taurus season turns your attention to family matters and your inner emotional world more than anything, thanks to the sun’s trip through your home zone.
