April 20-May 20

The Archetypes and Roles

The Pragmatist, the Sensualist, the Nature Lover, the Singer, the Evaluator

Ruled by sensual Venus, Taureans always appreciate beauty and texture. The sense of touch is especially linked to your birth sign. This extends to your desire to grasp and attain mastery over the material world.

Spirituality

"I Have" is your signature phrase of destiny fulfillment. Possessions and the concept of money are described by the earliest symbolism involving the Bull. The first wild animal to be tamed and harnessed, the Bull hints at order, structure, and possession wherever it appears in primitive art.

For spiritual awakening spend some time surrounded by fresh grass and other greenery. The magick of green, growing things will feed your soul, just as they actually feed the Bull.

If you were born under this second sign of the zodiac, there is a pronounced stubborn streak in you. Your greatest strength lives in your steady, relentless drive. You are the original immovable object and irresistible force.

Taureans are not fond of change.

Everyone knows you have a temper, though you rarely show it. Generally, you are patient, it is only when pushed that you become angry. Like a bull quietly sniffing the flowers, you're not looking to challenge anyone, but it would be a fatal mistake for them to challenge you.

There is a soft and gentle side to your personality. The Taurean taste is elegant. You have a keen eye for what is valuable. Usually an avid collector, it's a rare native of this sign who does not think that possessions, objects, wealth, and money are definitely for having- and the more the better.

Security is your byword. You look for permanence in career, lover, marriage, and home.

Beneath the surface, you are sensuous and sentimental. Your personality is private and self-contained.

Living with you isn't always easy. You can be dogmatic, secretive, stingy, opinionated, and suspicious, and your silent manner may conceal feelings of envy and rivalry. It's hard to get you moving, for you tend to be self indulgent, even lazy.  You have great stores of energy, however, which you put to use when you want to.

Basically shy and reserved with strangers. You like to entertain those you are fond of. You may not indulge as freely in frivolous pleasures as, say, Leo or Libra natives, but you are renowned for enjoying good food and good wine in plush surroundings.

You are a combination of the dependable and sensible, the sensitive and emotional. Inside every practical Taurean, there is a romantic dreamer struggling to get out.

GLYPH

The pictograph represents the horns and head of the Bull. It also outlines the chin and Adam's apple of the human throat (the part of the anatomy that Taurus rules). In symbolic terms, the glyph is a half-moon forming a cup that rests on the circle of the Sun. The cup represents material power and wealth derived through the force of will (the circle).

Strong, stubborn, plodding, can be both fierce and gentle.
