The spiritual life – especially the abstract variety – is usually not that important to a Taurus. Taurus falls to earth and practical. Taurus sees life on earth – even the mundane things – to be spiritual. (You’re probably right too!) You feel close to the Divine when you are physically comfortable and at ease. But over the past six or seven years, this has started to change. The spiritual life is not just been influential but active and full of dynamic change. Very experimental. Very interesting. Uranus, ensconced in your 12th house has perceived as that. Your career is partly responsible for this. In order to go to where you want to go, your heavenly understanding must increase. And, in many cases, people involved in your career are placed on a spiritual path and this has enhanced your interest. No matter, the Divine knows exactly what will attract you.
With Mars as your heavenly planet you like the path of action. You like to raise your spiritual ideals in positive actions. Silent meditation is generally not for you. You want to be doing something – building an orphanage, hospital or church. Feeding hungry people. Doing practical acts of charity. Being there for someone in hospital. This tendency is very the more pronounced these days and it’s very good. Nonetheless, along with this the Horoscope is indicating some scientific, intellectual background too. Uranus is the planet of science. A systematic approach to the spiritual life will not diminish your actions, but enhance them. You will see why you’re doing what you’re doing. Your faith will be buttressed by knowledge.
Uranus rules astrology. Astrology makes a very strong spiritual basis to it. We call it esoteric astrology. It is a philosophy of the stars. Thus, this is a valid spiritual path these days. Nana yoga, hermetic science and kabbala would also be interesting. These are rational scientific approaches.
Uranus in your 12th house shows ‘spiritual experimentalism’. This gets its good and bad points. On the positive side, you learn what path, what way works for you through trial, error and observation – the systematic method. On the negative side, it can make a person a ‘spiritual faddist’, running after the latest fads and trends, jumping from one to another. Spiritual progress takes persistence. If you jump around too quickly you only delay yourself.
The main challenge this year is integrating spirituality with a worldly career. Everyone regains their own personal solution to this. Some people go for a spiritual-type career. They go to work for a charity or to start a non-profit organization and work at it full-time. Some people pursue a worldly career and start a non-profit business on the side. Some people participate in charitable works while involved in a worldly career. You will have your solution for yourself. There are no rules about this.
