Taurus is the anchor
nature provided to keep Fire signs (Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius) from
rushing off the edge of a cliff. Taurus will not be rushing anywhere.
Your Sun in Taurus is calm, deliberate, slow talking, and practical unless
Gemini or Aries strongly influence your birth pattern. Even so, you will
surprise your friends and family with the heels dug into earth determination
once your mind is fixed on a point of view. Just try to get a Taurus to
eat something new. Mothers of Taurus children learn a lot about patience
from their little Taureans. But everyone learns early to love this person
who stands by his friends, sits steady in the boat, right through the
rapids, to the end of the journey.
Your sensuous sign,
Taurus, is earthy, almost pastoral. The image of the placid bull slowly
munching on the daisies in the field is often used to describe the nature
of Taurus. But that does not convey the need for money and power that
is inherent in your Taurus nature. Acquiring wealth, then hanging onto
it for dear life even to the point of paying bills the day before they
are due but not so late as to incur a late penalty makes sense to you.
Taurus is hurt when people criticize what he considers good business practice,
and common sense. After all isn’t he generous with his comfortable
home, food and the best brandy in the house? Just don’t ask him to
go to a crowded restaurant where the din of twenty conversations assaults
his sensibilities.
Taurus gives and
receives love freely, but may not do so verbally. “I love you, I
adore you. Do you love me too?” may be met with, “Yep.”
Love for children, pets, and family is part of your tender, affectionate
nature. While you may be slow to anger, when pushed too far the rage you
express surprises everyone. Taurus also needs time to calm down after
becoming upset and angry.
The Taurus love for
art, music, architecture, and beauty in any form is part of the Taurus
appreciation of the world around them. They often have beautiful voices
and can be stirred deeply by music. In the final analysis, let’s
not forget, no matter how you spin it, Taurus is stubborn.
If your friends and loved ones can remember that simple fact, they will
be able to bask in the pleasure of your company.
The sign Taurus is
connected to the planet Venus. Astrologers say the sign is “ruled”
by Venus. This means that the action of Venus is in harmony with the basic
characteristics of Taurus. In order to know the influence of Venus on
the way you express your Taurean qualities, it is necessary to know the
date of your birth. Venus is in the sky rather close to the Sun in Taurus
on your birthday. It is either in the same sign, Taurus, or the previous
sign, Aries, or the next sign Gemini. It really makes a difference whether
you are a Venus in Aries, Taurus, or Gemini person. A chart calculated
for your date (day and year) of birth will provide this information.
