Can you Imagine a New Life?

Welcome to Taurus Season, the first Earth sign of the zodiac, where our feet touch the earth, and we learn to embrace the human experience...

Developmentally, Taurus represents our toddler years, when we’re learning to master our growing bodies, understand big emotions, and discover how to interact with the world around us. We’re learning about physicalness, and what it means to be human. Big learning, new experiences, lots of processing in each moment.

And though this season might sound like a difficult one, it is ruled by Venus - who seeks beauty, love, support, and grace in everything that is witnessed.

So many of us view the human experience as a difficult one. We often feel confused, overwhelmed, doubtful. And when we do, we reject the experience - our bodies, minds, emotions, and all that is here for us.

This is your reminder: this is happening for us, not to us.

When we face the new, when we feel challenged or lost, the reaction can be to turn away, shy away, run away. But this is where we are called to stand true.

We cannot learn from the things we hide from.
We cannot grow in strength when we refuse to engage.
We cannot expand our intelligence when we close our minds.
And we cannot love an existence that we fear.

This is a call for courage. Having courage means that you face your fears. And through facing your fears, you become brave.

Bravery is experienced when we no longer feel afraid - because we’ve faced the unknown, and trust ourselves enough to navigate whatever life offers. We become stronger, more empowered, more willing to stretch beyond our comfort zones. And through that, we evolve.

As we do, we begin to witness the beauty of existence. We witness the rhyme and reason of time and circumstance. And we can start to make choices that lead us toward more love, more joy, more play.

We often romanticise our younger years - play, imagination, the freedom to just be. And we forget that those elements are what propelled us forward to learn, grow, and mature.

So today, sit with your sense of innocence, your wild and open imagination, your willingness to play and try new things. That lightness will begin to weave itself into your experience. Now is the time to open your heart and your mind.

Over the next few weeks, as we move with Taurus and Venus, I invite you to explore these questions:

• If I could remember and reconnect with my imagination and a sense of play, how could my daily life evolve? What would I choose differently?

• If I stopped rejecting my human experience, what could I begin to accept in my circumstances, and then begin to change them?

• If I could see this life as an adventure - one that challenges and expands me - what would I choose to pursue, learn, or try?

• How could I begin to see more beauty in the world? More love? More joy? And how could I begin to create these for myself?

Allow yourself to witness the world with new senses.
Wipe away the fear, the doubt, the mistrust.
See it as a playground for imagination and creation.

The world wants to play with you, too.

I am sending each of you blessings for true beauty and expanded imagination, every day.

P.S. Really embracing this approach will free you, your ancestors, and the rest of humanity from the limitations that hold us. When you do this for yourself, you help shift the collective, for all of us. Use your courage, become brave.
