In True Blood (incidentally I stopped watching a couple of seasons ago…) the vampires glamor their prey. By glamor I don’t mean they dressed them up and popped some make up on them, I mean that they somehow enchant their prey, delude them, disorien…

Venus in Taurus – Power House Heart of the Masses
After all that springing, thrusting and leaping around through the fresh green springtime pastures of Aries, cutting a fine figure and creating more than some disturbance. From the 16th April 2013 Venus in her element, glides and gracefully wriggles her way through the meadows and fields of Taurus the Bull. Can we now expect a little bit more peace and calm and find our quiet sanctuary where we may rest our weary heads and exhausted bodies? Have we now reach a plateau, a breathing space before we are tested again?

| David Weir ‘the WeirWolf’ has Venus in Taurus He has won a total of 6 gold Medals at the Paralympics 4 in 2012 and has won the London Marathon 6 times. |
Whilst here she will spend her time being naturally graceful, she is powerful and packs a powerful message behind the smooth seductive surface. Easily wanting to indulge in the fruits of the earth, Venus in Taurus leans towards the Epicurean.
Venus in Taurus has a somewhat ambivalent dialogue with money. On the one hand she smacks and licks her lips at the thought of spending of it and will have a million strategies for earning shed loads of it, the need to conserve it can also suddenly become overwhelming and imperative. Shops and restaurants are tailor made for the Venus in Taurus in the mood but so are banks and other financial institutions. Take your money seriously, develop plans to save it, spend it or just earn MORE of it. Venus in Taurus has money in mind even if this is seen as a revolt, counter force against it or a contentious force with it.
Basically Venus likes to indulge and so does Taurus. Feed the body in every way, anoint it, making it look good, smell good and feel so good aah! that is what Venus is about.

| UK runner Derek Hawkins has Venus in Taurus Only stepped up from track to Marathon in 2012 He ran it in just over 2 hours as he also ran the London Marathon 2013. |
Venus has been explosive, impulsive and impatient during her time in Aries for the past month and has got us all kind of used to this way of being. Getting straight to the point, engaging respectfully, being pro-active and having high standards. How different is it going to be with Taurus the Bull running the ‘Love ‘n Money Show’? A word of advice, lean towards being convivial, civic and community minded. Also display and be proud of your worldly goods, develop your taste and indulge your desires.
If you want to attract, be aware that during this time simplicity masks deep complexity, a simple message condensing a complex theory will be more effective, just as a homily sums up a tome, at the end of the day, for Taurus the simpler and more direct the better. No matter how difficult, tough or hard, for Taurus this can all be endured – if – it all makes sense, if there is a valid reason, if there is a tangible goal.
Open up discussions on those difficult subjects you skirted around for the past month for fear of over stepping boundaries or being impolite, work out a plan or strategy that will be of practical and helpful use. If you mean well, trust yourself. Taurus bull’s muscles, when put to use, are powerful, graceful and a force to be reckoned with, and you too can exercise this visceral and potent power harnessed towards your goal.
We will all have a month where our relationships may get a bit more sensual and earthy. Very real and practical concerns can dominate our relating. We may get more in touch with our bodies, bending, flexing, feeding, draping, honing, preening and indulging them to squeeze the best out of them. Taurus is known for its stamina and can keep on going….and going….and going……

Before we get too carried away it may also be the case that we get much more blunt, materialistic and frustrated as we have to negotiate other beings who are equally desiring the things we have set our eyes on, also sometimes saying it strait from the hip just as it is can be unintentionally hurtful.
If you have Taurus spanning the 5th zone of Romance & Creativity, you may find your ‘fun time’ gets a perk as what you do for the sheer love of it deepens and may go to another deeper level.
Your own Venus is in Taurus, a lovely time to welcome in new arrivals whether people or coins. This is your time to have the ‘Wow factor’ so work it.
If you are a Sun sign Taurus then – hey this stuff is easy right? Well yes, but to a point, even a money minded, food loving Taurean knows the value of living with less and learning that patience through the lean times is often the best policy. There is wisdom in knowing you can have too much of a good thing.
For this Venus in Taurus month we may have our pleasures laid out like a feast or laid bare like a famine but one way or other we will interact with some end of this polarity. Bursting through our clothes with expanded waistlines or ripped muscles we become hyper aware of our own and others bodies, and what they can and can’t do. How best to excite, sooth and honour the rippling graceful power of the Bull its endurance and heart
JFK: "–a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy–" (audio-video w Astrology)
Well, here it is, an excerpt of a speech President Kennedy gave to the American Newspaper Publishers’ Association on April 27, 1961 at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel NYC in which he lays his dove-gray gloves on the table and sets himself against a certain entity which "–relies on covert means–" to affect their goals. "–no secret is revealed," asserts JFK though one assumes his remarks didn’t suit
