You are the quiet, dependable rock, dear Taurus. You take solace in organization, and like it very much when all of your ducks are in order. This year, you will find that these fundamental personality traits will be challenged, as 2017 is a year of change for you. Don't panic, my patient friend, this year of change is good! The Universe will ensure it all goes smoothly for you, as long as you are willing to relax your stubborn nature and embrace new endeavors....just a little bit.
The year begins with the onset of saturn's afflication for you, Taurus, on January 27. Its effects for your sun sign will be neutral, but it wouldn't hurt to begin this first month of the year by reinforcing some positive ideas regarding the nature of change. You can start with small things, like rearranging the bedroom furniture or painting the kitchen a more “edgy” color, and then slowly move on to the more difficult issues.
You have a natural aversion to change, as your element is Earth, and you prefer to be comfortably rooted in the ground. Prepare yourself the first three months of this year, and you will see some curious and interesting new things happening in early April and continuing through May. Relinquish your inclination to control, and cling to your natural calm and patient nature throughout these two months, and you will be more than happy with the new path that unfolds before your eyes. You will be very pleased, Taurus, as the onset of saturn's afflication for you around October 27 is very favorable, and by the 31st of October, you will begin to see the fruit of these changes ripen, particularly in love, relationships and money. All you need is a little faith in the stars!
