THE MIND AND THE TONGUE WORKING DELIBERATELY AND STEADILY WITH A TENDENCY SOMETIMES TO GET STUCK IN MENTAL RUTS !!!



MERCURY began its highly focused and concentrated transit through the sign of Taurus on Saturday, May 2nd, at 10:57 PM EDT ... our mode of thinking and communicating now shifts from the rapid fire energy of Aries into the slower and more methodical energy of Taurus ... Mercury was last in the sign of Taurus from May 10th through May 25th, 2025 !!!



The keyword for this energy is "factual" !!! ... here the mind and tongue work deliberately and steadily with the tendency to sometimes get stuck in mental ruts ... this energy can be highly practical and grounded ... business skills or any activity that incorporates the use of common sense usually accompanies this energy ... often there can be learning through tactile contact or actual physical manipulation of the world ... perceptions can often be limited due to a desire to learn slowly and carefully ... there is a desire to bring ideas down to earth, and there are usually interests in money, sensuality and physical comfort  !!!



Mercury in Taurus loves to read - ANYTHING !!! ... time is taken in order to arrive at all decisions ... this Mercury likes to "sleep on it" and needs solid, tangible, physical proof in order to really believe in anything ... the thought pattern is developed in terms of worth thus making "value" the ultimate selling point ... there is usually an excellent memory bestowed by this mercurial energy and it makes one a good observer but ironically one is apt to listen inattentively as their mind is almost always already made up and will rarely be changed !!! ... even though there is a love of reading, it is ultimately realized here that experience teaches one the most valuable lessons in life !!!



Mercury in Taurus helps us to think through stabilization ... it's all about the concrete mind - SEEING IS BELIEVING !!! ... the mind here likes to chew things over and over in order to acquire a true depth of knowledge ... and frequently because this energy takes longer to reach a decision, opportunities may be missed ... this energy has its definite likes and dislikes ... there is more of a taste for the traditional rather than the abstract and the avant-garde - leave that to Mercury in Aquarius, and one finds it is steady working habits that produce thorough and solid results ... ultimately there is a gift given here to see how any plan will work out in physical terms ... the energy of Mercury in Taurus can be expressed in the following ways:



POSITIVE: sound mind, thorough, patient, cautious, shrewd, resourceful, sensible, realistic, good concentration, mentally sure, deliberating, practical thinker, sense of form, steady mind, enduring, mentally laid-back, docile, undemanding



NEGATIVE: slow minded, plodding, tardy, guarded, mean-minded, money-grubbing, boneheaded, one-track-minded, overburdened, limited thinker, stubborn mind, lazy-minded, dumb, misses the point, couch potato


Mercury now joins the Sun already in transit through Taurus - a lot of planetary energy encouraging us to get grounded and practical about something in our lives !!!



Mercury remains in Taurus until June 1st ... only one more complete sign transit ere Mercury begins its second retrograde period for 2026 on June 29th through July 23rd ... this retrograde will occur completely in the sign of Cancer going from 26 degrees 15 minutes back to 16 degrees 18 minutes Cancer ... the second oof three Mercury retrograde during 2026 completely in water signs ... Mercury enters its next shadow point on June 12th/13th !!!



Taurus born individuals, are you beginning to feel the tempo picking up in your thinking and communicating somewhat or at least being inspired with many new ideas ??? ... now is your chance - along with the rest of us - to get a lot accomplished and get our minds anchored to a firmer foundation of rational and practical thinking with this earth energy !!!



Thinking and rethinking is exactly what Mercury in Taurus naturally likes to do and will do over and over during this transit ... and that is no "BULL" !!!
