Tarot for Taurus Season

Taurus season begins around April 19th and carries us through May 20th.We’re moving from the spark of Aries into something slower, steadier, and more rooted. Taurus asks us to build, to tend, and to value what we’re creating—not just externally, but internally too. In this episode, I'll walk you through Taurus season... how it shows up astrologically, how it connects to tarot, and what it invites us to explore in our lives.What I Explore in This EpisodeThe energy of Taurus season and what it represents in the zodiacTaurus associations with tarot: The Hierophant and The EmpressCourt card and minor arcana connections (King of Pentacles 5–7 of Pentacles)Taurus Season: The ZodiacFor me, Taurus season feels like a return to the body. This is the second sign of the zodiac, and where Aries initiates, Taurus maintains.To the earth. To slowness. To ask, what actually matters here?Taurus is a fixed earth sign ruled by Venus. It’s deeply connected to:stabilitycomfortvaluesmoney and possessionsand what we consider meaningful or worth keepingTaurus Season: Major ArcanaIn tarot, Taurus connects most strongly to The Hierophant and The Empress.The Hierophant represents structure, tradition, and spiritual guidance. It’s about the systems we trust, the beliefs we inherit, and the ways we create meaning through ritual and repetition.The Empress, ruled by Venus, brings in the energy of nurturing, beauty, and creation. She reminds me that growth doesn’t come from force—it comes from tending, receiving, and allowing.Together, these two cards feel like:structure + softnessdevotion + pleasurediscipline + careTaurus Season: Court CardsWhen I look at Taurus through the lens of tarot’s court cards, I start with the King of Pentacles. This energy is grounded, reliable, and deeply rooted in the material world. It’s about building something sustainable.As the season progresses, we begin to shift toward the Knight of Swords, hinting at the upcoming transition into Gemini season. So even within Taurus, there’s movement—from grounded embodiment into mental momentum.Taurus Season: Minor ArcanaIn the minor arcana, Taurus aligns with the Five, Six, and Seven of Pentacles.All of these cards revolve around:resourceseffortpatienceand long-term investmentThey ask me to consider:What am I building?What am I investing in?And is it actually aligned with my values?💭 Today's Tarot Pull:For this episode’s pull, I used The Sasuraibito Tarot deck by Stasia Burrington and got Six of Pentacles (Reversed).This card is all about giving, receiving, and energetic fairness. In the upright, there’s balance, energy flowing both ways. But in reverse, something is off. Reflection PromptsWhere am I over-giving in my life right now?Where am I resisting receiving support or care?What do I actually value and am I honoring that?What would balance look like for me right now?Work With Me!I also share in this episode that I’ve launched a new tarot offering space: 🔮 The Hallowed High PriestessThis is the home for my tarot reading work outside of therapy, and one of my intentions this year is to complete 100 tarot readings.If you’d like to work with me for a reading, I’d love to connect, https://cal.com/camilleasaunders/30-minute-tarot-reading🌙 Support the Podcast 🌙⁠My newsletter (events, musings, life updates)⁠⁠Guest inquiry form⁠⁠Patreon episode blogs (cards, spreads, links, prompts)⁠And if you want to support the show in a tangible way: Patreon members can get stickers, livestream access, polls, and more, including higher-tier perks like a one-time personalized 5-card reading. 💜
