Keywords & Taurus in a Nutshell (including a bit of technical stuff)

Do you have a difficult relationship with pleasure… any and all physical pleasures? For instance, if you’re a foodie, you may very well have prominent Taurus placements in your birth chart. Taurus is one of the most embodied signs of the zodiac. Taurus is symbolized by the bull and it moves slowly, but steadily. And as the old adage says, slow but steady wins the race. In some ways, Taurus serves a corrective purpose, challenging the impulsivity of the previous sign, Aries. 

This sign is ruled by Venus, goddess of love, and it is associated with all things beautiful, especially gardens, architecture, arts and crafts, and even cooking! This isn’t a book, but the Great British Baking Show is very Taurean (albeit not in terms of its pacing). Have you ever seen the famous medieval unicorn tapestries housed at the Met Cloisters in NYC? These are the epitome of Taurean beauty. By contrast, while Libra is also ruled by Venus, as an air sign it represents the less earthy and more ethereal arts, especially music! Finally, Taurus is a fixed earth sign, meaning it can be immovable (i.e.: stubborn like a bull), but it is also very reliable, stable, and grounded. A Taurus would make a very trustworthy friend or confidante, someone you could truly lean on during difficult or tumultuous times. 🙂
