Taurus Season

All you need to know about Taurus season: queering sex and astrology

Something shifts in late April. The urgency subsides. Taurus season (April 20 – May 21) represents fixed earth, rooted, slow-burning, deliberate. The Bull doesn’t charge first and think later. It anchors and gets grounded. Fixed signs get called stubborn. The ‘brats’, ‘bossy bottoms’ of the zodiac. Digging in, demanding presence, surrendering to every sensation. Some call that foreplay. Taurus calls that erotic practice.

The jolt before the shift: Mercury the trickster, Uranus the rebel

Taurus season opens with a serving of friction. Mercury meets Saturn on April 20 words land heavy, intentions get lost in translation. The next morning Mercury meets Mars and what’s been building in the body comes straight out of the mouth. These are blurty days.

What gets said this week or doesn’t, is worth paying attention to. In your relationships, this is where your values show up — how you move with respect toward yourself and each other. Whether you hold your tongue or go off, it’s yours to own.

Then Uranus enters Gemini on April 26 for seven years. The last time Uranus was here — 1941 to 1949 — the world saw the invention of the atomic bomb, the first computers, and the birth of mass media. This time Big Brother is watching – AI, the algorithm, the complete dismantling of how we know what we know. Systems will be disrupted. Communication will be reinvented.

While the system gets its upgrade, stay grounded in what’s real. Your own thoughts. Your own body. The people in front of you. The algorithm doesn’t know what you want. You do.

Full moon in Scorpio: queer kink, power dynamics and the torch (May 2)

Scorpio moons aren’t here to make nice. They break down to compost, to recreate, to renew. Get dirty. Survive. Here against all odds.

This Full Moon is the torch. The dominatrix who sees straight through it. The hidden, the unspoken, the things that move beneath the surface. The desire you haven’t let yourself want. The vision you keep talking yourself out of.

Transformation isn’t always tidy. Sometimes it’s ecstatic, sometimes terrifying – like sex for the first time with someone new, or the first time you explore a kink. The edges are where the powerful stuff lives.

Presence is the erotic practice: new moon in Taurus (May 17)

Presence is the most underrated erotic skill and the New Moon is an invitation.

A seed, a beginning in the dark. A moment to return to your own body with full attention.

To touch yourself not as a means to an end but as an offering. A thank you. A homecoming.

There is wisdom in your own pleasure that no one else can give you and raising that energy, consciously, intentionally, is its own kind of power.

Taurus and your body: throat health, oral sex and sexual wellbeing

Taurus rules the throat – the neck, the thyroid, tonsils and the vocal cords. The seat of pleasure, expression, and appetite. What you swallow and what you don’t.

Now. Taurus is the sign of the absolute foodie and that extends well beyond the dinner table. This is the sign of appetite. Of feasting. Of taking your time with something delicious and refusing to rush. Eating pussy, eating ass — the greedy, generous, fully present mouth is Taurus vibes. Slow. Intentional. Deeply, unashamedly pleasurable.

It’s worth knowing that chlamydia and gonorrhoea can be transmitted through oral sex and can live in the throat, often without symptoms. Testing for STIs in the throat isn’t always included in a standard screen, so it’s worth asking for specifically.

The mouth is where nourishment and desire meet. What you take in. What you savour. What you come back for more of.

What are you finally ready to feast on?
