SkinOwl Zodiac Diaries || Time of the Taurus

by Jasmine, SkinOwl Director of Brand Collaborations

How loud is your heart? 

As we move into Taurus season, Mother Earth is listening to its call, and very attentively. This is a time to be clear with your intentions, with your thoughts, and with your actions. The universe is listening and actively helping you to manifest your desires. Be clear on what it is that you want, and what you say you want because Taurus season is about to bring light to the things we are focusing on.

Taurus is ruled by Venus, the lover, the mother, the nurturer, the artist. Venus receives blessings in forms of love and material wealth with open arms because she knows she is worthy of them all. Venus loves to love, she loves her pleasures, she loves her chocolates, she loves her scarves and her watches, she loves this earth and welcomes in great manifestations of your hearts truest desires. One thing that allows Venus to receive in this extraordinary fashion is her grateful nature. She receives because she gives. This is the truest law of attraction, anything you wish to receive, you must be open to giving. If you hold on to anything too tight, you strangle it, you must allow things to breathe. Release your reigns of control because the truth is, you have no control. This may take a moment of shifting your perception, but it’s an easy change to make once you realize that anything meant for you is already yours, and anything that leaves you is not meant for you. You get to put on your rose-colored glasses now, and skip instead of walk.

Do you remember a time in your life when you were presented with opportunities, each one greater than the last? Well, we’re back. We are back to blessings upon blessings upon blessings, revealing themselves. 

Last month with the shifting of seasons, we were asked to clean out the old and make space for the new. Winter can be a time of hoarding and collecting, and keeping warm in a frigid and almost stagnant environment. Springtime is all about change, renewal, and warmth. Now that we have cleared out the clutter of our minds, our hearts, and our physical environment, we have room to expand, to play and to arrange all the blessings that are coming our way.

Taurus season is the ultimate healer and mother, let her do her work now, your only job is to let the love pour in and fill all the open spaces. Enjoy the simple pleasures that this life offers you, knowing that you are worth all of it. If you didn’t know this already, you are a Queen. 

Another thing to make a mental note of is Venus’ current placement in Aries. Again, this is a magical time to get clear on what you want. Aries’ influence on Venus will encourage her to be direct, upfront and bold in matters of love and finances. We are being challenged at this time to grow, to break out of our comfort zone and do the things that make us feel powerful and be the extremely sensual beings that we are, and Venus in Aries supports this in every way.

How often in life have you heard “all you have to do is ask for what you want” or “you create your reality”? Well, this doesn’t come freely, this comes with a magical surge of inspiration and a jump into action on our parts. We have to be clear enough to know what we want, bold enough to ask for it and courageous enough to make the move. THIS is Aries in Venus. 

Tips on how to bring out the Queen in you.

1. GRATITUDE || Make a list of the things you are grateful for in your life now, and make a list of the things you are grateful for that you are about to manifest. The universe doesn’t know what the past or future is, it only knows this infinite presence. Speak your gratitude out loud, sing it, dance it out of you. Support your people.  Encourage greatness from yourself and everyone around you. The more you give, the more you receive.
2. TREAT YO SELF || You are a Queen, remember? Treat yourself like one. Let yourself splurge and show yourself the gratitude that you deserve. Get your nails done, take a bath with some Marigold Glow Beauty Steam or drop some Rose Quartz Body+ (Rose Quartz is a spiritual crystal that can help you tap into your Heart Chakra and open up channels of love) on your sun-kissed skin, get a massage, get yourself that new pair of shoes you’ve been debating whether you should or shouldn’t get. Let yourself be pampered and trust that the more you give, the more you receive.

Sending you all the love as always, if you need me I’ll be in a rose petal bath with candles on and crystals all over.
