When Mercury is in Taurus ♉️

Taurus is the all about money, finances, values and stability. While Mercury spends time here, we are inspired to think and act in ways that will help us save and be prepared for any rainy days.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO WHEN MERCURY IS RETROGRADE

The planet Mercury rules communication in all forms—listening, writing, reading, speaking, and so on—as well as activities closely related to communication, like negotiations and contracts. It also rules travel, automobiles, shipping, and mail.

So, when Mercury is retrograde, try to remain flexible, patient, and understanding, allow extra time for travel and avoid signing onto any new contracts that you’re unsure of.

Here’s how you can prepare for this Mercury retrograde in Taurus ♉️:

1. Back up all your electronics

2. Make sure to sign all legal documents before retrograde

3. Finish all old and pending projects

4. Clear mind of old limiting beliefs

5. Reconnect and rebuild old relationships — release all grudges that you have. Forgive, let go and move forward.

6. Revisit and re-evaluate goals

7. Slow down and take more time for self-care

8. Delete old emails, photos, texts, etc.

9. Clear your energetic field

10. Reset the mind-body and soul

11. Take more time for self-care and reconnect back into your truth

Mercury Retrograde in Taurus ♉️ impacts on each sign!

Aries ♈️ — Impressive job offers might be presented to you. The deck might be reshuffled in your love life so beware. The only thing that Mercury Retrograde might mess with is shit you no longer care about anyways so you'll be fine.

Taurus ♉️ — Happy Retrograde in your sign for the next 3 weeks. Really not really lol...This is the moment you haven't been waiting for. With your sign being all about peace, predictability and routine expect to receive the total opposite with this Retrograde transitioning in your sign. To lighten your mood it won't be an all day, every day thing just enough to keep your on your toes and throw you off balance.

Gemini ♊️ — Your sign is one of the signs ruled by Mercury, which means this retrograde might send you in a whirlwind and it might seem almost personal for you. The only thing that's great for you is Mercury brings chaos and your sign thrives well in chaos for whatever reason. Expect to receive some unexpected friend requests or contact from exes/past lovers lol...

Cancer ♋️ — This is believed to be an emotional time for you because as Mercury grows so does the moon and with the moon being your house ruler you might find it harder to figure out which direction to take (North or South). Around May 5th you'll begin to catch a break as its sensitivity peaks and the remainder of the retrograde won't be so bad for you.

Leo ♌️ — This Retrograde is expected to be a messy period for some of you but with the Sun 🌞 being in Taurus ♉️ and the Sun 🌞 being your planet ruler it should be a little bit less intimidating. This Retrograde will appear in your 10th house of career so your focus should be on reworking your current thoughts, plans and ideas surrounding your career area. Long-term and short term goals are important right now so make sure you're going with the flow instead of rushing the process.

Virgo ♍️ — Just like Gemini ♊️ Mercury is also your ruling planet which almost always makes Mercury Retrograde a little harder for you. The fact that this Retrograde is in your fellow earth 🌎 sign Taurus it's going to impact all earth 🌎 signs even harder. This Retrograde will touch communication areas that are important to all earth 🌎 elements. This Retrograde will have you looking at your ways of thinking differently and you'll begin to realize that some of your typical ways of thinking is what's keeping you stuck in a mindset you've outgrown.

Libra ♎️ — Since Taurus ♉️ + Libra ♎️ are both ruled by Venus, which is the goddess of love 💕 and beauty, and the planet of relationships and home. Both you and Taurus ♉️ value calm, stability, true love 💕 and as less drama as possible lol...As Taurus ♉️ is being affected in certain areas so are you. Taurus ♉️ might struggle with certain delays and lost emotions and you will too. Seek out for comfort and support during this Retrograde.

Scorpio ♏️ — With you and Taurus ♉️ being complete opposites on the zodiacs on the astrology wheel 🛞 while Taurus ♉️ is going through the motions you're going to be just fine Scorpio ♏️ it's almost like you'll feel right at home and things are going exactly your way. This is the perfect time to revise your love life with the Retrograde transitioning through your 7th house of romantic relationships.

Sagittarius ♐️ — You're a sign who knows how to laugh/smile no matter what's going on around you but during Mercury Retrograde this side of you will be tested the most. The fact that you're so free spirited and adventurous this just means you can just roll with the punches and your friends are going to need this from you. Go outside, laugh a little more, and link up with your friends. Seek new ways of being productive during this Retrograde.

Capricorn ♑️ — The last Retrograde transitioned through your sign which made it very personal for you and with it transitioning through your fellow earth 🌎 sign it's going to once again feel almost personal. Earth 🌎 signs value stability and security and with this Retrograde hitting in Earth 🌎 it's going to take away your sense of being on top of everything. Your gift of being to navigate 🧭 in unexpected situations is what you need to use to get through this Retrograde. You will find this Retrograde challenging you to revise how you seek satisfaction in your life by pushing you out of your comfort zone.

Aquarius ♒️ — For you, Mercury Retrograde isn't what's stressing you out - it's Pluto. Pluto stations 🚉 retrograde soon to join in on the chaos. Pluto entered your sign in March and in May Pluto goes retrograde which combining with Mercury, can create a lot of chaos and havoc. Use this time to focus on staying true to your values and humanitarian worth and assess every situation from your own perspective not everyone else's and you'll survive both Retrogrades. You can expect your home and family life to experience some changes and revisions.

Pisces ♓️ — With you being big on communication you'll definitely feel the shift in Mercury Retrograde. Conversations taken out of context will feel really off to you. When you try to compliment somebody and they take it as an insult or when you make plans and things don't follow through this is going to stress you the hell out. Use this as a time to take time to yourself so that you're not stressed out.
