How to Use Astroherbology for Manifesting This Taurus season

Grab your snacks and a cozy blanket because Taurus season is upon us! Taurus is an Earth sign ruled by Venus and falls between April 20 and May 20 at a time when the Earth is in full bloom and we can focus our energy on stability, grounding, and manifesting abundance. Taurus loves comfort, Taurus loves money and everything that has to do with the Earthly, physical realm. Taurus rules the neck, mouth, jaw, shoulders and throat so this is a great time for us to take the steps to ground our energy and support the throat chakra. Mainly it’s going to be your job to decide what to say and how/when to say it. Are you oversharing where you should be listening? Are we building or breaking with our words?

In spiritual hygiene the neck and shoulders are a part of our first intuition zone which is connected to the absorption of outside energies. Our heads, specifically the top of our heads or “Orí” in Yoruba, are receptive and absorbent. Protecting your energy is going to mean incorporating a spiritual hygiene ritual that helps you manage and maneuver through weird vibes, anxiety, and people-hang overs.   

Stay ready for Taurus season — Get the Bye Bye Bad Vibes smudging spray two-pack here.

Taurus is a fixed sign and is known for being stubborn like a bull, but we can also use these energies toward our advantage. Because yes, a bull is stubborn but isn’t that also called perseverance? Perspective is everything, so it’s time for us to buckle down on the things we need to work through and find a way to do so gracefully. 

Crystals like blue lace agate, lapis lazuli, and aquamarine can help balance and heal the throat chakra. You can wear them as jewelry or carry them with you.

For many of us with Taurus and other fixed placements Leo, Aquarius, Scorpio-- being careful with our words and communication is going to be key. And we cannot forget that Mercury will be retrograde from April 21st to May 14th and we will be having a transformational solar eclipse in the sign of Aries on April 20th. Taurus season is starting off strong and we are still in the beginning of the astrological new year so Taurus energy might be the push you need to stay the course and keep moving towards the new and unexplored stages of your life. It’s healing time bbs, and if you’re ready to get started and set spiritual and energetic goals, I’m booking limpias and readings

Try these: Relaxing Stretches for Hips, Back, and Pelvic Floor (25-min)

The jaw and venus are both connected to the pelvis, so loosening the jaw, neck, and hips with stretching and yoga would be beneficial. (My Goodbye Evil Eye spray also helps with this) Grounding the root chakra with either limpias, baños, teas, and steams is especially important for this season too. This is where herbal allies come to the rescue and it’s important that we focus on cultivating relationships with the elements we choose to partner with. It’s not just the actions and properties of the plant but the spirit of the plant that helps us too, so generating respect and reverence for plant allies is necessary. 

Here are 4 plant allies you can work with this Taurus season that will help you get through these challenging astrological times. They’ve done wonders for me and they might help you too.
