Mars leaves Aries and crosses into Taurus on 27 April 2028 at 22:21 UTC. It stays for 41 days and moves on to Gemini on 7 June 2028 at 18:20 UTC, with no retrograde turn along the way. Taurus is an earth sign of the fixed modality, ruled by Venus.
The tradition treats Mars in Taurus as a slower, steadier expression of the planet's drive. Where Aries starts things quickly, Taurus is read as preferring effort that builds over time: work with the hands, care of resources and possessions, attention to the body and its comforts. Astrologers often note a stubborn streak here, since a fixed sign does not like to be hurried. A modest way to use these weeks is to pick one practical task that rewards patience, such as a garden bed or a repair, and give it regular attention until it is done.
