It’s Taurus season, my darlings! We’re here to make money, make love, and highlight the beauty in the little things in life.
Approximately every 30 days, the Sun visits each of the twelve signs of the zodiac. On April 19, it passes from tall, passionate and a little restless Aries in practical and pragmatic Taurus, where he will remain until May 20.
Last month, the wildfire of Aries brought us a great spark of impulsiveness, passion, and the frenetic excitement that comes with new beginnings and new ideas. With the Sun in Taurus, we will be invited to come back down to earth and relax for a moment.
Here we can find the space to stretch out languidly in an ethereal garden and digest all that has come our way during Aries season – preferably with good food and wine at hand. This will give us the space we need to assess with a calmer, more practical eye and make the necessary plans to bring our dreams to fruition.
Taurus is represented by the bull, which is why the magnificent two-horned Dea has the most Taurus energy in town. And he can stand as firmly in his position as his symbolic animal. He is resolute in his loyalty, confident in his knowledge and beliefs, and likes to do things his way because he knows from experience that his practical systems work. Left unchecked, this unwavering Taurus confidence has the potential to turn us into a bull in a china shop. But if we enter into conversations and collaborations with full awareness and openness to other perspectives, we can tap into the stability and strength this season has to offer in abundance.
With Taurus being ruled by Venus, the planet of love, beauty, money, and pleasure, it’s no wonder this sign is sensual. It’s all about comfort and material beauty, but materialism doesn’t have to take on a negative connotation here. We’re talking about getting back in touch with our senses and sensuality, and indulging in the beauty of everyday luxury.
On April 14, Venus will also enter Taurus and stay there until May 8. This transit will reinforce all the good vibes of Taurus season, especially when it comes to intimacy and pleasure. Venus in Taurus is urging us to prioritize ourselves, take care of ourselves, and indulge in our sensuality. The next two weeks will be a prime time for romance, with ourselves as much as with others.
It is quite appropriate that #MasturbationMay begins halfway through it all. If there was ever a time to lounge around and indulge… This season is filled with reminders that not only can we find pleasure in the simple things, but that they are always there for us if we only stop long enough to truly appreciate them. And it’s more than okay to indulge every now and then.
Here are 4 tips for harnessing the celestial bull and bringing balance to your Taurus season:
1. Slow down
The earth energy of this season is very grounding. As a fixed earth sign, Taurus encourages us to slow down. But slowing down doesn’t mean getting lazy. Taurus is determined and focused, aiming for a balance between hard work and relaxation.
This is a deliberate stabilization to find a consciously controlled rhythm. This is a time to break things down and examine every detail, to develop manageable plans that will set us up for success for the rest of the year and beyond. Determine where it makes the most sense to direct your efforts in order to realize the highest potential of your dreams, big and small.
Do you have a prosperity plan? If not, now is the perfect time to start! What do I need to feel emotionally and financially secure? Writing this down will help you identify what you need to do to achieve the stability you deserve.
2. Talk about it
Taurus rules the neck and throat. Add some neck stretches or yoga poses like Cat-Cow Pose, Plow Pose, Fish Pose to your routine to help open this area and keep the energy moving.
This also includes your voice and the power that comes with it. Grab a new journal and let the words flow. Sing out loud to your favorite songs. Scream into a pillow or from inside your car. Anything you can do to get that vocal energy flowing and attuned to it will surely enhance that power.
Some journal ideas for this season:
Make a list of 10 things you like about yourself. Say them out loud, one by one.
What do I need to feel more grounded and secure: in my career goals, in my relationships, in my relationship with my body?
What is one thing I want to accomplish this season?
What can I do to bring more joy and pleasure into my life?
3. Go out
Taurus teaches us patience by reminding us to slow down, and as a leading earth sign, they like to do this by reconnecting with nature. Taurus literally wants us to stop and smell the flowers or the misty petrichor of those spring showers. Get outside, take some big deep breaths, and let the spirit of the season ground you.
4. Indulge yourself and stay sensual
Will Smith may be a Libra, but it’s Taurus who practically wrote the book on maxing out and relaxing. Make this season a time to soak up the benefits of everyday luxuries. Here are a few suggestions to get you started:
A. dress yourself in our most beautiful finery
b. wear lingerie just to admire your beautiful ass in the mirror
c. take a bath with scented oils
d. turn on your sexiest playlist and dance with abandon: discover Bellesa’s spring 2021 playlist here

g. prepare a fancy dinner for yourself and/or your loved ones – COVID bubbles and gathering restrictions permitting, of course.
If you do nothing else, charge up your vibrators and have some serious sex.
