Taurus season 2022 has arrived. It’s time to touch earth and be still after the fiery rush of Aries month. Taurus brings a funky floral goth sort of energy to daily existence, so why not eat some grapes and look at earthworms?
This particular Taurus season, however, may bring earthquakes for some signs. The first two eclipses of 2022 will happen within the next four weeks, upending stability even amid the time of the deepest rooted sign. On May 10, Mercury goes retrograde for the second time in 2022, scattering any hard-won semblance of steadiness to the wind. Pluto also goes retrograde on April 29 and remains backwards for the remainder of May, which may cause a difficult emotional dance for signs coping with grief in the middle of the month.
Still, suffering during Taurus season somehow just feels a little more elegant than pain experienced during other times of year though, doesn’t it? Read on to see what fate the stars decree for your spring!

A new moon and partial solar eclipse hit Taurus on April 30, rattling the fixed earth sign with a tectonic wave of initiative energy. Both astronomical phenomena represent beginnings, astrologically. Recalcitrant Bulls would be wise to spend the remainder of April thinking about life changes you’d like to put in motion before external events shake up your circumstances in more unpredictable ways. Freaky Uranus remains in your constellation throughout your season, which may manifest as flashes of brilliantly unorthodox inspiration in managing new happenings in your life, or — particularly after Mercury goes retrograde in mid-May — cause absurd mishaps and communication meltdowns. Probably both!
The full moon in Scorpio on May 16 will shine brightly on you, Scorp’s sibling sign, illuminating the damp root cellars of the soul you’d typically rather keep dimmed. Just as you’ve taken a good look at whatever it is you’ve been storing unused in your mind-cellar, the first of 2022’s total lunar eclipses hits: this is when the grief associated with letting go of what you’ve recently given up will make itself felt. Don’t let the heavy feelings make you doubt your choices! Nostalgia and regret merely demand their due respect before leaving you to pursue fresh paths unhindered.
On April 29, your sign ruler Mercury comes home to hang out in your constellation. Then, on May 10, Mercury goes retrograde. Congratulations! Of all the signs, you win the most chaotic Taurus season of 2022.
