Mercury Direct in Taurus:

Slow and Steady Mindset

In 2023, Mercury is retrograde in all three earth signs.

Mercury will be in Taurus on April 3rd until June 11th, 2023.

On April 21st, it moves retrograde until May 14th, 2023. 

Mercury in Taurus reminds us that there is much more about life that can be figured out when we are practical.

What Happens When Mercury is Retrograde in Taurus?

Mercury is the planet of communication, learning, commerce, and short-distance travel. It is the ruling planet of Gemini and Virgo. Mercury retrograde affects everyone, regardless of your sign.

When a planet is moving retrograde, it appears as if it is moving in the opposite direction from our perspective here on earth. But it is simply an illusion. As an effect, expect all things related to information, communication, technology, and contracts to go awry.

During Mercury Retrograde in Taurus, you may have felt that things are especially slow. Taurus rules sensual pleasures and stability. So during this retrograde, try not to make hasty decisions about love, major purchases, and other financial matters. 

When Does Mercury Turn Direct in Taurus?

Mercury turns direct again in Taurus on May 14th, 2023. It is the perfect time to dive into those tasks that have been on the back burner.

What Happens When Mercury Turns Direct in Taurus?

Taurus is the earth sign representing sensuality, money, and material success. When Mercury turns direct in Taurus, there is great emphasis on rational thinking.

Your focus may be on financial and material matters, as Taurus is the sign of personal resources and possessions.

Normally, Mercury is not so comfortable in the sign of Taurus. This is because Mercury is a restless planet of constant mental activity, whilst Taurus prefers to take the unhurried route.

Taurus prefers the traditional ways and is less prone to changing their mind even if new information is revealed, which Mercury and Mercury-ruled signs Gemini and Virgo tend to do.

But as Mercury turns direct in Taurus, it brings with it a slow and steady mindset that favors concrete thinking over abstract thoughts.

Taurus’s approach to Mercury brings us back down to earth with a vengeance. Dwelling on what’s real, tangible, and at hand can help us to avoid getting bogged down with over-complicated processes or ideas.

During this time, the mind often wanders to the realm of material pleasures. As Taurus is a fixed sign, keep in mind that our mind is likely to be stubborn and narrow as well

We may feel more comfortable maintaining routines and making slow-paced decisions. We’re also more inclined to follow tradition than come up with new ideas.

This period can emphasize a love of comfort, as well as stubbornness or rigidity.

Here is how Mercury direct in Taurus shall affect you uniquely depending on your zodiac sign.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for an Aries (Aries dates: March 20th – April 19th)

You find that your thoughts are much easier to manage after the retrograde, Aries. If you have financial concerns, they should be discussed with others during this period. Mercury in this house may also enhance communication with others regarding money matters.

Use the energy from this period to make positive changes in your financial situation. Pay attention to money matters, as it could be a time of making improvements to your home or earning more income with your writing or artistic talents.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Taurus (Taurus dates: April 20th – May 20th)

Taurus, you might have found yourself silenced and mentally bogged-down during the retrograde. Now, with Mercury moving forward in your sign, you feel a strong urge and confidence to express yourself. During this period, you are much more sharp, witty, and very attuned to what others are saying around you.

It is period can bring news, travel, and discussions of everything from gardening to the latest movies seen on Netflix. It’s a good time to communicate with friends, family, and associates.

You are able to see with great clarity the most efficient and reliable way to approach something—a task, a situation, or an opportunity. Your practicality is heightened, so you may be surprised by how much you enjoy simple tasks like cleaning and fixing up your home! A renewed sense of efficiency will also benefit your relationships and social life.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Gemini (Gemini dates: May 21st – June 20th)

Gemini, beware of petty squabbles with others and don’t waste time dwelling on past grievances – you need to look forward now rather than backward! Spiritual growth and understanding are likely to be important issues for you during this time.

The best course of action is to examine the past for answers, rather than focusing on some aspect of it that is no longer relevant or useful.

Creative activities are encouraged, especially those related to spirituality and service. Following the confusing retrograde, you may benefit from spending time alone in reflection during this period.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Cancer (Cancer dates: June 21st – July 21st)

Cancer, there may be social activities and events and plenty of exchanges with colleagues and friends during this time. This period also increases our interest and ability in all forms of communication, including writing letters, calling people up on the phone, exchanging ideas, and talking about issues.

This is a time to learn new skills and gain information, so spend as much time as possible learning about something that interests you. Your sense of humor and playfulness may become more apparent, yet your attention span will be short.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Leo (Leo dates: July 22nd – August 21st)

For the next few days after the retrograde, Leo should expect clearer communication with work colleagues and your boss. You may feel like you are being pulled in multiple directions at once and unable to make sense of it. You need to give yourself some time to process what is happening in your professional life. If other people are pressuring you to make a decision, take it slow and consider the situation carefully before making a choice.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Virgo (Virgo dates: August 22nd – September 21st)

You are able to think clearly about your goals and what it takes to achieve them so take advantage of this excellent time for studying or researching. Conversations will flow smoothly. You have a highly developed intellect and an excellent ability to express yourself during this period. You are more willing to accept new ideas.

It is a great time to clear up any misunderstandings when it comes to arguments or differences of opinion, so why not use this opportunity and make peace instead? During this time, you are able to act as a mediator for any disputes.

It's a wonderful time for travel or to schedule travel.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Libra (Libra dates: September 22nd – October 22nd)

Libra, your mind is clearer and more focused than usual, which makes it easier to tackle planning, research, and strategizing. 

This period incites a desire to bring up issues that can be sensitive, intimate, and personal. During this time, we are not always willing to open up and talk about the things that make us uncomfortable because we feel like no one understands. However, this is a great time to break down those barriers, so that all parties involved can feel heard and understood.

This doesn’t have to be high drama–it’s simply a time to create an environment where people can feel comfortable talking about everything they need or want support with.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Scorpio (Scorpio dates: October 23rd – November 21st)

This is a mental time for you, Scorpio, with your thoughts taking on more of a life of their own. This period can resolve communication conflicts between you and others as your ego struggles against its expression via communication. This isn't necessarily a bad thing; if handled well, it could make for an interesting conversation.

Your closest relationship and how to communicate better with your partner will be what is on your mind at this time.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Sagittarius (Sagittarius dates: November 22nd – December 20th)

Focusing on your well-being will be a priority for you, Sagittarius. Detail will be important. Be alert at the office as well. You might find yourself trapped by other people’s actions, and it’s best to avoid being so. You need to get over with your work and move on straight home without any detours or such.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Capricorn (Taurus dates: December 21st – January 18th)

Capricorn, your communication skills are enhanced during this period, so now is the time to focus on solving problems with words rather than weapons. If possible, it's also a good idea to avoid starting conflicts because you can turn others around by using logic and appealing to their better nature.

This is an auspicious period for signing contracts (and making business deals), organizing events, or setting up plans for future action. If single, this is a time to connect with others through conversation and mental pursuits.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for an Aquarius (Aquarius dates: January 19th – February 17th)

You may have gone through periods of feeling the need to withdraw from friends and family in order to reflect on what could be better about your relationships, or in order to make them more harmonious by working out any misunderstandings between you and those around you.

This is a good chance for you to review current projects and plans and to prepare for the future, Aquarius. If you are a business owner or entrepreneur, this is your time to shine. Mercury is in Taurus, so it's a time to extend the olive branch to family members.

Mercury Direct in Taurus for a Pisces (Pisces dates: February 18th – March 19th)

This is a time of great charm for you, Pisces, and you are likely to feel comfortable with yourself and others. If you are constantly researching, writing, or simply learning new things, your creativity will be stimulated. All communications should be pleasant and pleasing to them.

This is an excellent time to learn new skills or study a new subject. Concentration and good mental clarity are possible during this period, as well as communication with others, who are likely to be interested in your thoughts and ideas now.

    Hey, Kelly. I am ready. If I had known I was going to be recording this, I would have worn some makeup. So anyway. Oh, that's my vanity speaking. Sorry about that. But anyway, I do love listening to you and I always acquire a lot of knowledge. I've been studying astrology since I was about eleven years old. I love it and I can't get enough of it. But I just wanted to let you know that I loved that quote from Eleanor Roosevelt that you put on there. It's so true. We need to live life while we have it and make the best of it. And astrology will help us lead the way. I'm assured of that. Anything we can learn when it comes to astrology will only help us to live a better life. And by your volunteering all your information, I thank you a million times over. You are such an asset. And I know the stars and the planets are shining down upon you and I listen to you all the time on YouTube and your Zoom channel and have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I hope your throat feels better. Kelli keeps drinking some hot. Thank you for everything you do. My name is Judith and I'm from Greensboro, North Carolina, and I'm a cancer and I love all of what you have to say. Thank you. Bye.

    Hello there. This is era. I'm answering your video and I'm a little intimidated because I'm on it. So let's just use this one for you and me before I try to check with the audience. But, yeah, when I got your email and read everything, you were speaking right to my heart. Right to my heart. My spirit told me that this was a good thing. And I'm a crab cancer. We don't just trust anybody. It takes a long time for people to get our trust. But you're the real deal. You are the real deal. And that's why I had to write you and let you know that the only reason why I wasn't getting it today was because of my circumstances. I'm looking forward to my new life. I got the world card today, and that means I'm getting ready to step into a new life that I deserve. I must say, you're awesome. I haven't had a chance to see everything you've done, but I've seen enough to know that it's going to go straight to my heart. I know that, like I said, let's not share this with the world yet. This is just for you. But I promise, when I get her, I'll be glad to do that for someone else who may be in my place that is looking for something besides fluff. They're looking for something real. And I do believe that's what you have, my dear. Something real.

It was matter of fact 1212 when I read it. Please keep doing what you're doing. It is helping me in my life in many different ways. Spiritually, I'm of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, otherwise known as Mormonism. Our god is directing me. You're right. You're completely right. I know my worth. I know where I'm supposed to be headed, what I'm supposed to be doing, just by feeling my own heart and my own decisions that he's giving me. He's giving me. How do I explain this? Perfect situations to just choose from. And if I'm choosing the right, then I get many blessings from you guys. Numerologists, moon readings, all of that, and it all comes together and ties into my life perfectly. So I'm so appreciative of what you guys are doing and it is changing me for the better and I'm excited to see what's to come. And that's really all I've got to say. Thank you, Kevin, and I appreciate everything you're doing. Please keep doing it. I love this and I do not plan on stopping.

Never thought in my wildest dreams that I wouldn't have to, but it I'm choosing to make big changes in my life for the better of myself. I lived a life of not so great, made poor choices. Some of them had no choice. Most apart, I did have choices. But the past three years, I've been dealing with a lot of stress and a lot of depression and anxiety. But throughout time comes I've been learning a lot about myself. A whole lot about myself, thanks to you guys. All the signs thrown at me, all the emails and everything, which at first I kind of found odd. But as of now, everything's on point. You guys are changing. My life in a whole different perspective. And I'm seeing life and this world we're in a whole different perspective, as in within myself. And now I'm in my comfort place. I like views. I like nature. I like stuff like that. This is where I come get my peace and quiet. I look forward to seeing what's coming for me. Thank.

    Hi, Kelli. Just want you to know that your daily email and the guidance you send it really matters. I'm not sure if it's specific to me or if it's for the collective, but what I do know is that when I received a message, it happens to be what I'm going through currently, or I'm experiencing currently. I thank you for your selfless acts. You're consistent, and I always look forward to reading what you have gathered or gotten from the spiritual guides and all of the spiritual team, the Light team. I am going through a tough period right now in my life, and that's seems to be the song through my whole life. But I do have faith and believe that it has to get better or things have to turn around. It just has to. I thank you.
