What does this mean?
On April 20, 2027 at 09:17 (CEST), the Sun leaves Aries and moves into Taurus. The planet keeps its job and changes its style, like someone wearing a new coat to the same work. Whatever Sun sets in motion in your everyday life now carries the color of Taurus.
What does the Sun mean?
Your Sun is the core of who you are: your will, your awareness, the engine that drags you out of bed each morning. It describes how you like to take center stage and the story you tell about yourself. Where it sits in your chart names your basic theme, the part of you that wants to be seen and that every other planet circles.
What does Taurus mean?
Taurus is substance and stability: pleasure, patience, slow things that hold. It trusts what it can touch and decides with the body rather than arguments. Where Taurus is active, something takes root, gets made with care, gets cooked well, or rests long enough to ripen, like dough under a towel.
Sun Enters Taurus
With the Sun arriving in sensual Taurus, old questions get slow, grounded answers for a few weeks, like a long unhurried lunch.
What it means for your zodiac sign?
A short reading for each sun sign. You feel the moment most where it hits a point in your own chart directly.
Aries
As Aries, you will probably pick up the undertones more than the main tune. They are quiet and can still be useful. The focus is your confidence and vitality: the mood shifts and fresh impulses get room. Fire signs often get going by doing. Pick one small action for the day that you will actually finish.
Taurus
As Taurus, you are standing in the middle of this one, since it happens in your sign. Can you feel it? This moment shines a light on your confidence and vitality, and the mood shifts and fresh impulses get room. Earth signs usually want something they can hold. Turn the impulse into one practical step.
Gemini
For Gemini this mostly happens in the background. Rather than an upheaval, maybe one small thing shifts. These days, look closely at your confidence and vitality, since the mood shifts and fresh impulses get room. Air signs like to sort their thoughts in words.

Cancer

The focus is your confidence and vitality: the mood shifts and fresh impulses get room. With water signs, feelings often speak first. Take a quiet moment and listen to what they are saying.
Leo
As Leo, you might get a nudge that feels awkward at first. Check whether it takes you somewhere useful later on.

- Stays until: the planet's next sign change. Until that date, Taurus sets the style the planet works in.
When does the Sun enter Taurus?
It happens exactly once a year, though the day moves around a little. From 1900 to 2100 the ingress landed most often on April 20 (57.2 % of years). The earliest date was April 19, the latest April 21.
Blame the calendar. A solar year runs about 365 days and 6 hours, while the calendar counts only 365 and makes up the difference with a leap day every fourth year. So the ingress drifts roughly six hours later each year until a leap year pulls it back.
