What time does Taurus season start in your time zone?
The Sun enters Taurus at one single moment for the whole planet. Your local clock decides the date you see.
Taurus season dates for 2027, 2028 and 2029
- 2027: April 20, 2027 at 07:17 UTC until May 21, 2027 at 06:17 UTC
- 2028: April 19, 2028 at 13:09 UTC until May 20, 2028 at 12:09 UTC
- 2029: April 19, 2029 at 18:55 UTC until May 20, 2029 at 17:55 UTC
The moment shifts by several hours from year to year, because a calendar year of 365 days is slightly shorter than the time the Sun needs to return to the same point. Leap years pull it back.
What Taurus season means
When the Sun crosses into Taurus, spring in the north stops flickering and starts to settle. Blossom turns to leaf, the ground warms, and the year slows down enough to be touched. All of us walk under the same unhurried sky. This season does not rush in. It arrives like a hand pressed flat into warm soil.
Taurus is the sign that stays. For one month the whole zodiac leans into its question: what is actually worth keeping? We feel it in what we own and what quietly owns us, in the pace we have been forcing through every week, in the drawer, the room, the calendar we keep filling past the point of pleasure.
For you it usually comes down to one thing you have been building slowly. Often it is the savings, the skill, the garden, the home you keep tending without ever letting yourself enjoy it. You are good at waiting. You are less practised at arriving. Some part of you already knows which one.
This is Venus's own season, the planet of attraction, value and taste, so the slowness here is sensual rather than stubborn. We are allowed to enjoy what we have this month. The sky leans toward beauty that can be held: a meal eaten slowly, a fabric that feels right, money spent on something that will last. Pleasure is not a reward for finishing. It was never greedy to love what is good.
Many of us feel it in the body first. The feet want bare ground. Hunger becomes more precise, and a hurried lunch at the desk suddenly feels like an insult. We notice smell again, cut grass, bread, rain on warm stone, and a long evening outside does more for us than any plan. We slow down the way roots spread in spring, part of the weave that has always grown by staying.
We meet this earth sign in things we can touch: the account that grows by small amounts, the shelf that finally holds what it should, the routine that makes a week feel like home. It is also fixed, a sign that holds and deepens what has begun, so the season protects what is real and resists what is rushed; the one trap is clinging to a form that has already done its work. If Taurus is your Rising sign, you feel all of this in the first person, in your pace, your steadiness, the calm you carry into a room. For everyone else it lands in one particular part of life, and the table below shows which.
This is the month the year stops rushing, and it invites the rest of us to stop rushing with it. We are all under the same ripening sky this month, each carrying one slow and patient thing toward the light. May yours take root. You were never meant to grow it alone.
What actually changes
The shift speaks through texture rather than drama:
- You look at what you have built and, for once, you do not immediately look past it
- A purchase you would normally rush asks for one more week of thought
- You lose patience with plans that live only on paper
- A simple evening, good food and no screens, feels like the richest hour of your week
None of that is a crisis. It is the weather changing rooms, and noticing early is the whole advantage.
What is in the sky during Taurus season 2027
- April 20: Full Moon in Scorpio
- May 6: New Moon in Taurus
- May 8: Pluto turns retrograde at 7° Aquarius
- May 20: Full Moon in Scorpio
Each of these dates is calculated, not estimated. A New Moon or Full Moon inside Taurus season adds its own note to the month; a planet turning retrograde or direct marks a change of pace in the part of life that planet describes.
How Taurus season affects each sign
The season lights a different house for every sign. Read the row for your Rising sign first, then for your Sun sign.
Counted from your Sun sign, the table is the classic horoscope reading. Counted from your Rising sign, it gives the whole-sign house, which is the more personal of the two. For example, with Scorpio rising, Taurus season moves through your 7th house of partnership.
Which row is really yours? Your Rising sign changes roughly every two hours on the day you were born, so it needs your birth time. Find your Sun, Moon and Rising for free, then come back to the table. To see every planet in your chart and the exact house each one sits in, that is the complete birth chart reading.
How to use 31 days of it
- Name the one thing you have been building slowly. Not to speed it up. Just to see how far it has already come.
- Enjoy one part of it on purpose this week. Taurus season rewards presence far more than productivity.
- Let go of one habit, object or commitment that has finished its work. Keeping what matters needs room.
Put the exit date in your calendar: May 21, 2027. After that, Gemini season begins.
Before and after Taurus season
Aries season comes before Taurus season and ends the moment Taurus season begins. Gemini season follows on May 21, 2027. Together the twelve seasons make one full circuit of the Sun through the zodiac each year.
Your season begins on the same day as everyone else's, but where it settles is yours alone. For one person it settles on money and what they are truly worth, for another on the body they keep overruling, for another on a home that is ready to be lived in instead of improved. You share the sky with all of us; the ground it warms belongs to your chart. Some part of you has always known which ground that is.
Your complete birth chart shows it to you: all ten planets across twelve houses, set by your exact birth time and resolved birthplace, with the aspects your chart supports and a personalized audio walkthrough. You read it once, and the steadiness this season asks for stops being a general slowdown and becomes solid ground in your own story, written in the sky on the day you arrived.

On May 21, 2027 at 06:17 UTC, when the Sun crosses into Gemini and Gemini season begins.
How long is Taurus season?
31 days in 2027. Every sign season lasts roughly a month, because the Sun needs about a year to move through all twelve signs.
Is it Taurus season right now?
Taurus season runs from April 20, 2027 to May 21, 2027. If today falls between those dates, yes. The next one begins on April 19, 2028.
Why do the Taurus season dates change every year?
The Sun reaches 0° Taurus at a slightly different moment each year, because the calendar year and the solar year are not exactly the same length. The difference adds up by several hours a year and leap years pull it back. That is why sources disagree by a day.
What planet rules Taurus season?
Venus. In the traditional scheme Venus rules both Taurus and Libra, so this is Venus's home season: a month in which value, taste and the pleasure of what is real are easy to reach for, which is not the same as a promise of effortless money or love.
What does Taurus season mean?
It is the month the Sun spends in the sign of steadiness: embodiment, patience, deliberate choices and what grows by gathering slowly. For about 30 days that manner colours the sky for everyone, and it tends to bring one slow, patient project into view.
Does Taurus season affect everyone or only people born under Taurus?
Everyone. The Sun moves through Taurus for every chart at once. What differs is which area of your life it lights, and that depends on where Taurus falls in your chart, which your Rising sign decides.
How does Taurus season affect each sign?
It lights a different house for each sign: counted from Aries it falls in the 2nd house, from Aries in the 2nd, from Taurus itself in the 1st. The table above shows all twelve with what each house holds. Read it for your Rising sign as well as your Sun sign.
Which house is Taurus season in for me?
Count from your Rising sign: the sign on your Ascendant is your 1st house in whole-sign houses, and Taurus falls in the house shown in the table. Without a birth time, the Sun-sign row gives the classic horoscope reading, which is rougher. Your complete birth chart shows the exact house.
What does Taurus season mean for people born under Taurus?
It is birthday season. Each year the Sun returns to the exact position it held when you were born, the moment astrologers call the solar return, and the house the Sun occupies in that return chart names the focus of your coming year.
I was born on the first or last day of Taurus season. Which sign am I?
There is no cusp sign. You are the sign the Sun was in at the exact moment of your birth, and the switch happens at a different time every year. Enter your birth date, time and place in the free Big 3 calculator and it gives your Sun sign exactly.
What comes after Taurus season?
Gemini season, from May 21, 2027. Before Taurus season comes Aries season.
When is Taurus season 2028?
From April 19, 2028 at 13:09 UTC to May 20, 2028 at 12:09 UTC.
Is Taurus season good for money?
It is a good month to look at value clearly rather than a promise that money grows. Taurus expresses itself through steadiness and gradual accumulation, and Venus, its ruler, describes value and taste, so the season tends to favour patient decisions over quick ones. Whether that shows up in finances, possessions or self-worth depends on where Taurus falls in your chart.
What should you avoid during Taurus season?
Mistaking resistance for loyalty. The easy mistake of the season is to hold on to a routine, a plan or a possession long after it has done its work. Keep what still feeds you, release one thing that does not, and the month usually feels full rather than heavy.
