Taurus
Patient, reliable, and sensual
This week brings a potent blend of grounding energy and a yearning for deeper connection. You're likely to feel a strong pull towards practical matters and solidifying your foundations, but don't be surprised if emotional undercurrents demand attention. Opportunities for genuine intimacy and understanding arise, especially in close relationships, so be open to vulnerability. Challenges may surface if stubbornness takes hold, making it difficult to adapt to shifting emotional landscapes. Focus on clear communication and a willingness to compromise to navigate these currents with grace and build stronger bonds.

Understanding Weekly Readings
Weekly horoscope readings take a broader view than daily forecasts, identifying the dominant themes, opportunities, and challenges that will shape your week. By stepping back from the day-to-day, weekly readings reveal patterns that are invisible at the daily level — the arc of a planetary transit as it builds, peaks, and wanes over several days.
The most significant factors in a weekly reading are the Moon's journey through multiple signs (it changes sign roughly every 2.5 days), any planets changing signs or direction during the week, and the formation and dissolution of major aspects between planets. These larger movements create the weekly "weather" that colours everything from your mood to your motivation.
Weekly readings are particularly useful for planning. Knowing that the early part of the week favours communication and networking (Mercury-influenced days), while the weekend carries more introspective energy (Moon-influenced), helps you schedule important meetings, creative work, and rest more intentionally.
The ISO week system we use runs Monday to Sunday, aligning with the natural astrological week where each day is traditionally ruled by a planet: Monday (Moon), Tuesday (Mars), Wednesday (Mercury), Thursday (Jupiter), Friday (Venus), Saturday (Saturn), and Sunday (Sun). This ancient correspondence still shapes the energetic flavour of each day.
