Partnership possibilities could come out of the blue this week, thanks to Tuesdays solar eclipse in Scorpio and your seventh house of dynamic duos. Solar eclipses occur during a new moon, bringing new beginnings in an exciting blaze of glory. These joint venture possibilities may have been hidden in the shadows for a while, only to be illuminated by the energy of Tuesdays solar eclipse. This eclipse is the first in a series that will be touching on the Scorpio-Taurus axis for the next two years. They are especially significant since theyll be activating your sign and the sign opposite yours (Scorpio). The first ones to touch Taurus wont happen until next April 25 and May 10, but the energy is already underway beginning this week. Fasten your seatbelt, its going to be a wild ride as you are pushed to evolve both personally and in partnerships at a pace thats faster than the one your methodical sign is used to. This week, give the renegade routine a rest and start working the buddy system in all areas of life. Whether for business or pleasure, the rule of opposites attract applies heavily this week. You may be surprised by how much the people youre drawn to break from type. Keep your mind open as you sort through a bevy of new candidates, and even review people from your past as prospects. On Wednesday, social Mercury, which will be retrograde from November 6-26, scoots back into Scorpio as well, bringing business partners and lovers of yore back into the picture. Did THAT person really just send you a Facebook friend request? Oh no he didntwait, oh yes, he did. Brace yourself for some ghosts coming out of the woodwork this week, Taurus. Should it only have been a matter of bad timing that kept you apart, this retrograde could bring the second-time-around opportunity to stoke the embers of your synergistic attraction. But recycling a bad romance or hostile merger, hoping that this time around it will go differently? Bad idea, Bull. Leave those toxic relationships buried in the cemetery of unpleasant memories and keep your eyes fixed on the future. The eclipse-Mercury retrograde combo also provides an opportunity for you to get clear about what you want in a partner. You may have some illuminating insights this week, and finally break free of a pattern thats been haunting you for years, possibly a lifetime. This may actually mean walking away from a relationship that is no longer serving you in order to pave the way for a fulfilling replacement. On Saturday, spicy Mars moves into your travel sector until December 25, activating your wanderlust. Youll be craving greener pastures, exotic locales and multicultural mingling in lands where other languages are spoken. Start researching an international vacay, but wait until Mercury turns direct on November 26 to book those tickets if you can. Getting out of Dodge for a smaller trip during the Thanksgiving break could be a huge refresher. Just take extra care to book with reputable companies and double check all the data fields before you hit the Buy Now button on a non-refundable ticket. Your entrepreneurial side will be sparked by this Mars phase, luring you out of that play-it-safe zone you tend to keep your career sequestered in. Even if you dont quit your day job, begin developing your visionary ideas as a side gig. They could take off at a galloping pace by Christmas Day.

General Characteristics of Taurus

Sensual Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty. Your sign loves great food, romance and beautiful things. Venus kicks your five senses into high gear, so you are are happiest when surrounded by the best of everything. Satin sheets, gourmet dinners, a glass of red wine, and boom...you're relaxing into one of your famous, 14-hour naps. Not that you don't work hard, too. Like a bull, Taurus operates at two speeds: either totally relaxed, or charging headfirst towards a target. You prefer to keep the peace, but when you're pushed past your limit, watch out! Underneath it all, you just want to be comfortable, and surrounded by life's finest offerings. Taurus knows what s/he likes, and that's that. You stick with your opinions, and you don't change unless there's a really good reason. You can be stubborn...but on the upside, you're also loyal and dependable. Just be careful not to get stuck in a safety zone or your life could become stagnant. Take a chance and try something new. Sometimes, change and risk can bring the progress and reward you're wishing for.
