Who said the Bull was passive and averse to change? Not this year as Taureans are imbued with the spirit of enterprise and are having an explosion of ideas. They are taking the bull by the horns and throwing themselves into new fields, starting new ventures and incorporating new ideas into their lives to make work more fun and more rewarding. Taurus are often held back by what others think and can fall into this rather stultifying mode of people pleasing; however, this year they are not caring what anyone says or thinks and are going ahead and expressing themselves boldly. There is less care about loss right now and more concern about what could be gained if you step away from the comfort zone. They say that at the end of your life you will regret the things you did not do, rather than the mistake you made when you did try something new, and that is the spirit gripping the Bull this year. Your thought processes are far less conservative, far less restrained by convention and by what others may say and far less cautious. You are more inclined to speak up and to say what you think – to hell with it. Taurus are liberated from a need for approval, and you will find you spend far less time on things that used to satisfy you. Suddenly you realise how stale your life was and how many of the things you were doing were aimed at winning favour, feeding your inner child or pleasing people – you will quite unconsciously shift to activities which are actually more fulfilling and more exciting and more about YOU. You will experience more independence psychologically and can free yourself from any emotional crutches you may have used in the past.
