<\/dt>\nFor most of human history, the business at hand during solar Taurus has been direct, intimate contact between you, other beings, and the Earth itself. It was only during the last century that something has come in between.<\/p>\n
What has come in between is big business. For the most part, that has been a big mistake. Like most big mistakes, it seemed like a good idea at first.<\/p>\n
It appeared to be a good idea for fewer people to produce more food. Many thought it an even better notion to expand production and distribution. The term ‘ready to eat’ became a virtually unquestioned virtue. Yet, the huge business entities that control the production and distribution of your food do not display virtuous conduct. That does not bode well for your direct and intimate contact with them.<\/p>\n
Every time you eat, you are making intimate contact with where your food comes from. Mercury’s ingress to Taurus this year heralds a good time to start thinking about that.<\/p>\n
In the symbolism of astrology, Mercury represents your mind and how you use it. That, and the fact that Mercury completes many cycles during an average human lifetime, puts it in the category of a ‘personal planet’. The definition of many cycles in the course of your life\u00a0also defines the Sun, Venus and Mars as personal. To have them moving through Taurus together (as they will until May 9, when Venus moves on to Gemini) represents a time to begin reclaiming the personal business recent generations have ceded to big business.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It begins with the personal values Venus represents. Many of you live within reasonable distance of a farmers market. If you can simply prioritize meeting somebody who personally cultivated, harvested or transported the food you buy from them, it will be a huge step. If you can direct the energy symbolized by Mars into making the priority a habit, you and your money will begin to make a difference.<\/p>\n
Once you actually see how the practice of your personal values and application of your personal energy can make a difference, it will raise your consciousness (emblematic of the Sun) to a level that makes greater things conceivable. That is some personal business you can probably attend to this week, possibly even at lunch.<\/p>\n
While it will take more than a week to address a big mistake that has been a century in the making, it is not too late to do something personally to begin. If there is anything to astrology, this is the week to make a start, and you can, by making it your business to do so.<\/p>\n
