(Please note that this is an astrological perspective on health and not a medical one. In days of yore there was no difference, both these perspectives were identical. But now there could be quite a difference. For a medical perspective, please consult your doctor or health practitioner.)

Health, as we have said, looks very good this year. There are no long-term planets in stressful alignment with you until December 18 – practically the whole year. They are all kind to you, which is highly unusual, and so your health and energy are abundant. You tend to be disease resistant, and if you have any pre-existing conditions they seem to be under control.

Another good health signal is your empty 6th house. Only short-term planets will move through there this year and their influence is short-lived. This shows that you don’t need to pay too much attention here; you can sort of take good health for granted. Sure, there will be periods in the year where health and energy are less ‘easy’ than usual. These periods come from short-term planetary transits and are temporary and not trends for the year. When the difficult transit passes, your normal health and energy returns. We will cover this more fully in the monthly reports.

Good though your health is it can be made even better. Give more attention to the following – the vulnerable areas for you, Taurus (the reflex points are shown in the chart below):

Important foot reflexology points for the year ahead

Try to massage all of the foot on a regular basis – the top of the foot as well as the bottom – but pay extra attention to the points highlighted on the chart. When you massage, be aware of ‘sore spots’ as these need special attention. It’s also a good idea to massage the ankles and below them.

 The neck and throat. Taurus rules the neck and throat and these are always important for Taureans. The neck should be regularly massaged, as tension tends to collect there and needs to be released. Craniosacral therapy is excellent for the neck.

 The kidneys and hips are also always important for Taurus. Hips should be regularly massaged. If you feel under the weather, a herbal kidney cleanse might be a good idea.

 The lungs, arms, shoulders, small intestine and respiratory system become more delicate between April 3 and August 7, when your health planet Venus spends more than four months in Gemini. During that period arm and shoulder massage will be beneficial; breathing exercises too.

Your health planet Venus is a very fast-moving planet, as our regular readers know. This year she won’t move as fast as usual as she will have one of her retrogrades. In spite of that she will move through 11 of your 12 signs and houses this year, so there are many short-term health trends that depend on where Venus is and the kinds of aspects she receives. These are best covered in the monthly reports.

Siblings and sibling figures seem more stressed this year, and could be facing surgeries. The health of parents and parent figures seems better than last year. The health of children and children figures needs more attention from March 23 to July 1, and from December 18 onwards.

Uranus in your sign for the long term indicates experimentalism with the body. You are testing its limits. Basically this is a good thing. Often our physical limitations are not what we think – we can do more than we think we can. The only way we learn is through experimentation. However, this should be done in a mindful way. Thus, exercises like yoga, tai chi or other martial arts would be good. These are safe ways to test the physical limits.
