Description:
Underneath their cool, calm and collected exterior, Taureans differ greatly from all the other signs of the zodiac. Taureans manage to discreetly stay apart from the crowd, even though they have a well-earned reputation for being socialisers. They will let others get close, but only so close as they want them. Some claim that trying to get your point across to a Taurean, should they not want to hear you, is rather similar to talking to the trees – they simply won't budge. And, there is no such thing as an open-book Taurean. Their feelings, fears and desires often run far deeper than anyone around them would guess. Like the butterfly that chooses to remain hidden in its cocoon until it is ready and prepared to emerge, so the true Taurean spirit remains hidden behind a veneer of day-to-day activities. That's why Taureans are sometimes regarded as snobby, withdrawn, boring, or even sulky. The truth is, when Taureans manage to operate very adequately on their own form of automatic pilot, they can switch off from the world around them very efficiently. And when they do switch off, they are actually gathering in their inner reserves to deal with the outside pressures. This sign is also very closely connected to 'feeling good'. Most Taureans like their creature comforts and hate change because it takes them out of their automatic pilot condition of separating themselves from the world around them. Because they hate to be put in jeopardy of any kind, this is the sign that strives to create tomorrow in advance, rather than leave it to fate. In love, Taureans are regarded as extremely sensual beings. An earth sign, they deal well with the personal, physical senses and consequently all the pleasures associated with what they can see, touch, smell and taste, add up to a special delight to them. Often nature and pet lovers, Taureans are closely associated with all things off the earth and nature.

The second sign of the zodiac is concerned with:
* beauty, romance, sentimentality, sensuality
* materialistic values, wealth, prosperity
* nature, harmony, love of living things
* possession, control, security, dependability
* habit, organization, tenacity, kindness
* shyness, cautiousness, trustworthiness, calmness
* appreciation of values, talents, abilities

Positive Factors

Taureans are very warm and affectionate toward their friends. They enjoy friendship with people who have good taste and with whom they can enjoy a quiet conversation or a concert or a football game. They will enjoy people who have strength of character and qualities of endurance like their own. Toward such friends, Taurus will always be gentle, kind, loving, and totally trustworthy.

Negative Factors

Taurus can be very jealous of any attention given to someone else. Taurus does not like signs of weakness, physical or emotional, and can be quite direct about them. Taurus prizes friends who have some power which they can share and enjoy. People who wear cheap perfume, artificial fabrics, and have houses that are built to deceive the eye, e.g., not real stone but faced with stone, are unlikely to attract the friendship of a typical Taurean.

Answer 2

Taurus is the first of the Earth signs of the zodiac. It also belongs to the group known as ‘Fixed’. Taurus born people could best be described as professional appreciators. They enjoy anything natural and take pleasure from bringing natural items together to build and create objects of great beauty. Taurus people appreciate each season in turn and enjoying the routine of the unfolding year.

Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus. As this planet journeys around the Sun, she describes a particular pattern that over the course of several cycles will yield a heart formation at its centre. It is perhaps from this that Taurus has become known as the great 'love' sign of the Zodiac. Taurus people set great store by anything that brings pleasure. Generally they have an ear for music, an eye for colour and a feel for texture.

Taurus is the sign of the bull. Like the bull, Taurus people move slowly and deliberately. They are slow to anger but, when enraged, will charge just like the 'bull in the china shop', creating considerable damage not just to others, but to themselves also. Few people forget the angry bull and some may not want to cross its path again.

That said, those born under this sign are affectionate and display great loyalty. They choose their friends carefully and many of these friendships last for years. As one of the Fixed signs of the Zodiac, Taurus people show a tendency to single-mindedness. Occasionally they are accused of being stubborn and territorial. The truth is more complex. Taurus people dislike change. They enjoy the security of knowing exactly where things are, what routine is being followed and what goal has been set.

Answer 4

One thing interesting about Taurans is that many of them have wonderful singing voices (though not all). Taurus rules the throat so they may also have health problems with that area too. I've noticed that they are very dedicated in relationships and may have a very hard time letting go of someone even if it is the wrong person for them. Taurans usually have the best relationships with other earth signs or water signs.

Answer 5

traditional traits -
patient and reliable
warm hearted and loving
persistent and determined

on the other hand -
jealous and possessive
resentful and inflexible
self-indulgent and greedy


Taurus isn't necessarily like a Bull in a ring with a toreador. You could be more like peace-loving Ferdinand, seeking the gentle meadows filled with flowers, sunshine and natural beauty. It's only your stubbornness that can make you angry enough to charge at someone who is disturbing your peace.

Taurus are noted for your determination. You get to where you are going, not because you are exceptionally fast or clever, but because you will not be distracted from your goals. Your need for stability and simplicity can motivate you to create a life for yourself that is quite functional, though it might seem boring to someone else. But you aren't interested in taking unnecessary risks that can put your solid footing in jeopardy.

Your motto might be "Take care of the senses and everything else will take care of itself." It may be that your attraction to material things is less about the objects themselves than it is about the pleasure they bring to your senses. Comfortable living and working space is important to you, along with nice linens, clothing, food and music. And, as one of the most practical signs, your outlook on life is usually quite sensible. As you plod along in life, getting what you need in order to survive, don't forget to look at the beauty that is beyond the material world of material possessions
so just chill !!!
