The
second sign of the zodiac, Taurus is ruled by Venus. The glyph
represents the Bull, Taurus's symbol. The sign is concerned with
the manifestation of the self, with basic needs being the foremost.
Ruled by Venus, Taurus personalities tend to be driven by their
affections rather than by emotions.
|
Taurus
is the direct opposite of the Aries character. Taureans
tend to be slow, methodical, practical and reserved. They are also
stolid, tenacious and determined. Possessing tremendous willpower
and self-discipline, they are inclined to stick to tried and
traditional methods. Their greatest satisfaction derives from
results produced directly by their own personal efforts rather
than by others.
Roots are very important to the Taurean. A sense of permanence, a
feeling of security is essential. Generally an easygoing person,
slow to anger, but once roused is known for a ferocious temper. Very
difficult to deal with when angry. Usually set off by jealousy due
to a possessive nature. Loyalty is important to a Taurus, and a true
friend of a Taurean will speak well of their great generosity.
Honesty,
integrity and dependability are notable Taurean characteristics.The calm, pleasant, and well intentioned Taurus
exterior belies the volcanic temper that can erupt when sufficiently
aroused. The bright side of the stubborn bull's nature is,
they are incredibly and uncompromisingly loyal to their friends.
Established slowly, a Taurus friendship can, and often lasts
a lifetime
|
Taureans
are warm, loving, gentle and charming most of the time. Motivated
by self preservtion, the Taurean is not a risk taker and weighs
every decision carefully, in a slow and methodical manner. To
more impulsive people, the Taurean is a bore. Opinionated and
stubborn, once a Taurean makes a decision, it is written in stone.
nobody can alter it. Basically physical people, they prefer the
known to the unknown and the tried to the new. They love the
earth, possessions, and generally treat those they love as sacred
possessions.
Main
positive traits : Stable, dependable, practical,
conventional, determined and patient.
|
Taureans
can be very caring and warmhearted but there is a tendency to
be extremely jealous, possessive and very stubborn. Taurus must
strive to keep an open mind because his strong personal convictions
can blind him to the ideas of others. Risks are taken only if
it is absolutely necessary and only after much consideration.
This is a sign that's slow to change and would prefer a steady
routine in life.
Main
negative traits : Possessive, stubborn,
materialistic, lazy
|
Prosperous
at developing and maintaining wealth, Taureans do well
in banking and finance. In business, they shine in fields concerned with the
earth and money. Architect, builder, gardener or accountant,
financier, banker, auctioneer, real estate broker, are all professions which
attract a Taurus. They may even possess a good singing voice as
music may be said to be a Taurean art. Many Taureans have a find
real pleasure in gardening. Gifted with a natural artistic nature,
they also may excel as crafts workers.
Persistence,
thoroughness and single-mindedness that can take on dogmatic
qualities are the hallmarks of the Taurean personality.
No detail will ever be overlooked by the eyes of a Taurean.

Taureans
must strive to keep an open mind because their strong personal
convictions can blind them to the ideas of others. |
Taurus
is one of the elder signs in the zodiac. In earlier ages the
vernal equinox was located within the realm of the bull, roughly
during 4,000-1,700 B.C. In ancient cultures, the year began with
Taurus.
To the Greeks, Taurus is associated with Zeus and his transformation
into a snowy white Bull. This he did as a means to abduct Europa,
whom he lusted for. Thus, the Minotaur of Crete, result of this
union of God and mortal, is also recognized as being associated
with the second sign of the zodiac.
In the Mediterranean region, the Sun's entry into Taurus was celebrated
as the Feast of Maya. The Sun was often represented by a white
bull with a golden disc between his horns. This image was followed
by a procession of virgins, exemplifying the fecundity of nature.
This association of Taurus with the beginning of Spring, can be
traced as far back as ancient Babylon.
