Your sign is that of earthy Taurus, the second sign of the zodiac, the sign characterized by endurance and sensuality. Taurus is also associated with material goods.
Venus, the planet of love and beauty, is your ruler, and makes you a very warm and faithful person. For the most part you are even-tempered and show a great capacity for affection, as well as an appreciation for beauty and art. You are loyal and reliable. You keep your promises.

As the first of the three earth signs, you are realistic, patient, and persistent. You are the most grounded sign of the zodiac, preferring to put down roots and aiming for stability.

Comfort, even luxury, is very precious to you. And indeed, you rule the second house, the sector of the horoscope that encompasses money and possessions. This house describes your value systems, including the value of oneself.

Your sign is a fixed sign, dear Taurus, meaning you enjoy responsibility and taking charge. However, you are not a doer - you are a delegator! Like every genuine Taurus, it may take you longer to get involved with something, but once you do, you don't want to stop. You are more passive than active, and prefer to have the world move around you while you sit still and direct.

Your strengths lie in your decision-making abilities; you don't make snap judgments or jump to conclusions. You engage in careful consideration, as hastiness and impulsive actions do not appear in your script. In your relationships, you are fully committed and faithful, and you seek harmony and inner peace.

But you too have a few weaknesses. One trap you may fall into is that of obstinacy and self-righteousness. Due to your firm beliefs, you are deaf to any kind of criticism. This inflexibility can cause you to resist change and procrastinate. You run the risk of becoming lazy, overindulgent, or convinced of your own infallibility.

The Bull, as befits an Earth sign, is a grounded and devoted sort, but that should never be construed as boring. Remember that Bulls can charge! Taurus generally wants a harmonious and beautiful relationship, given as they are to a fondness for pretty things. Whether it's a sweet serenade or silky sheets, Taurus loves anything luxurious and anyone who can bring that aspect into their lives. Does this make the Bull all style and no substance? Not at all: Taureans are sentimental, romantic and possessed of a dogged determination which virtually assures that they will get what they want. Keeping the Bull feeling good is the best guarantee of a considerate lover, one who will work hard on a relationship filled with sensual pleasures.

Taurus Career Profile

 The Bull could be considered the worker bee of the Zodiac, not the image you might have of this hard-charging sort. Taurus is reliable and loyal, easy to get along with and a good team player. They're also practical and grounded, as befits an Earth Sign.

If you want things to get done, call the Bull. You may have to ring them two or three times, though, since they can be a bit lazy to get going, but once they're up and running, look out! There's a focus and single-mindedness of purpose there that can come in plenty handy. Taureans can be notoriously strong-willed, so it's a good idea for colleagues to lay down the law first -- the Bull will follow their lead and work hard. So hard, in fact, that Taureans are often the pillar of a company, the community and certainly their family. Hey, that's what those strong shoulders are for! Organization is also something that is best placed in the Bull's capable hands.

While the Bull can do well in business, an artistic streak is also present. More apparent, though, can be the Bull's frequent stubborn streaks, which can defeat a lot of hard work. And that temper! It's mercifully swift, so duck while plates are flying, and you'll be fine. If Taureans can keep their focus on the steady accumulation of material goods and an occasional dose of earthy, sensual pleasures, life will be grand.

The Taurus office is likely to be a comfy, cozy den, a place where guests will feel welcome and the Bull can hold court. Driving around between appointments is likely to be done in a sport utility vehicle, with ski racks on top as a sign of practicality and success. If it's a lunch date you crave, the Bull can just as easily take you for a BLT or filet mignon -- it all depends on your value to this discerning member of the Zodiac.

Taureans are well suited as bankers, artists, accountants, musicians, gardeners or any profession that requires patience and determination.

 LOVE: Love is a given during the New Year's first weeks. Your relationship is grounded and secure. This may be only a phase. You'll know for sure when self-examination begins after January 18th. For those unhappy with what they find, difficulties lie ahead. February 7th and 8th offer you chances to snap out of it when Saturn and Mercury go direct. You're loved, or you can be lovable. By the 19th, your first wish is fulfilled. Many more come true during the next month. Illusions vanish when lovers say what they mean and act as they feel. Someone cares about your ongoing happiness.

As Pluto retrogrades on the 20th, relax into sensations and emotions that are as natural as Spring following Winter. By the end of April, you're completely spoiled. Romance has never treated you better. You're flooded by beauty. Your capacity and stamina are endless. If you change partners in mid-May, it happens because you're strong and wise. The next few weeks find you pausing for breath, appreciating what you have and returning favors. Events around June 10th broaden your perspective with a ripple of uneasiness.

Passion surges back as Summer begins, and you'd rather demonstrate your ardor than simply discuss your feelings. Your affectionate nature turns possessive. Beware of a backlash or emotional hangover in the final week of July. Under the Leo Sun, lovers part company or find reasons to argue. Even if you saw this coming, it's no less painful. Grieving ends abruptly around August 25th. Whether you patch things up with your beloved or feel optimistic about fresh prospects, it's time to move on. Speed into your next romantic adventure.

You're perky, casual and silly until October 10th, when you wake up and take a good look at the person lying beside you. As Venus retrogrades, it's time to introduce the real you and to evaluate whether this relationship has a future. Begin a trial phase by the end of the month. There's some pressure here, but also a chance to explore and learn. Connect intellectually or spiritually to enhance your great physical rapport. As Thanksgiving approaches, passion turns up the heat. Everyone else is busy and cheerful with the coming holidays, but partners are happy celebrating one another. This is how your year ends. If you don't have someone in your life right now, you're so eligible and available that the universe is sure to give you the perfect gift.
