TAURUS Horoscope For October 2010

Love is likely to be complex for you this month. While the month gets off to a strong start, with your increased confidence and optimism, your ruler and the goddess of love, Venus, turns retrograde on the 8th and continues its apparent backward motion until November 18th. Your confident, playful approach to love in the first week of October can quickly take a turn, and this can certainly confuse a lover or love interest. You may become emotionally distant or hesitant during this cycle. Everyone knows it’s not very wise to push or pressure a Taurus in general, and this becomes even more important now. Venus and Mars are moving through your partnership sector. Venus in direct motion has been helping to soften some of the intensity of Mars’ placement in this sector, but with Venus retrograde, there is a real possibility of strife and pushiness coming from a partner that tends to push you further away emotionally. A partner may be seen as overly demanding now. Take the time to review your feelings, but avoid coming to a concrete life-changing decision just yet. Past relationships may come up for inspection this month. Try not to glamorize the past, however, as the temptation may be to escape current pressures and demands. Better days for love in October are likely on the 3-4, 15th, 18th, 20th, and 25th. The 1-2, 5th, 9th, and 11th might be trickier.
