August 27 to September 3

Taurus, Jupiter, the planet of luck, is preparing to shift retrograde in your sign next week, on  September 4th. This week you’ll feel the height of the pre-shadow period of this upcoming retrograde. You may be under the impression that your luck is running out, especially once Uranus, the planet of surprise, begins its five-month retrograde through your sign on August 28th. But this is simply an illusion, Taurus. You still have plenty of luck — the universe just wants you to adjust your strategy and game plan by looking back at your past and assessing your successes and challenges in a practical way. Fortunately for you, Virgo season will assist you in doing so.
