November 4 - 11
Your week ahead with your baby
This week brings two important events to our sky. On November 4, Neptune goes direct—meaning forward rather than backward—which encourages all of us to take stock of our hopes and wishes. Under this transit, our imaginations will be ignited with curiosity and genius, and dreams really can come true! Adding to this shift in consciousness is a move by Venus into passionate Scorpio on November 7. Jealousies could be at their peak during this transit, but so will the capacity to feel and express deep feelings of love. Read on to learn how your baby will experience these transits.
Your Taurus baby this week
Taurus will enjoy yet another week dominated by Scorpio’s energy. Since both signs are equally stubborn and determined, your baby bull will find comfort and support in this compatible astrological configuration. Neptune turning direct means she’ll also be able to communicate her needs, and you’ll be the perfect provider. In fact, this week will be so harmonious that you’ll often give little Taurus what she wants even before it occurs to her to cry. Venus transiting in Scorpio makes for even more good vibes, igniting a love-fest between your little one and the rest of the world. She’ll be smiling for everyone she sees—and you’ll be the proud observer of her ability to connect and shine.
Your Taurus baby in 2009
Your Taurus baby may show signs of creative genius, along with an independent streak, so try to stand back and watch her feed herself
—
the mess will be worth the increase in this little bull's self-esteem! Your hands-on baby will also find magic in the building blocks she’s playing with, so be sure to add a bit more color or variety. Older Taurus toddlers are really digging into art projects these days, with a surprising use of color and glue (not all of it will end up in her hair). Exposure to color and texture and your encouragement to experiment and imagine, will make this a week of new masterpieces for your refrigerator.
