Taurus season is the stretch of the year when the Sun travels through Taurus. Here is when it happens in 2026, what its energy feels like for everyone, and how to make the most of it.
When is Taurus season in 2026?
In 2026, Taurus season runs from 20 April to 20 May, the roughly thirty days the Sun spends in Taurus. The dates shift by about a day from year to year. Here in Australia it falls in autumn. You can find the Sun’s sign, and your own, any time with our birth chart calculator.
The energy of Taurus season
After the rush of Aries, Taurus season slows everything down. Ruled by Venus, it is a sensual, steady, grounding time that invites you to enjoy the simple pleasures: good food, nature, rest and beauty. It is a season for savouring rather than striving.
How to make the most of Taurus season
Slow down on purpose. Cook a good meal, spend time in nature, tend your home and your senses, and let yourself build something steady rather than rushing it. Match a ritual to any night with our moon phase tool.
Who feels Taurus season most?
Everyone feels Taurus season, but it lands most personally for Taurus suns, who are in their birthday season and a kind of personal new year, a powerful time to set intentions. Scorpio suns feel it most across their relationships, since Taurus sits opposite their sign.

A gentle note
