Taurus Zodiac Sign
As the zodiac unfolds, and after the trail blazing and initiating energy of Aries, comes stable, patient Taurus helping to make sense and add structure and form.
The glyph (graphic of this sign) is of the Bull. Yet paradoxically the ruling planet of this sign is Venus, the planet of love and beauty. Whilst Taurans can be willful and stubborn, they are also capable of being very gentle too.
The symbolism of Taurus is of procreation, of all natural reproductive forces. In mythology, it was said that Aphrodite was represented as wearing two horns on her head to imitate a bull. But within this there is also a weird tie-up here between Mars and Venus, the two yet very different planets of love and sexuality.
In terms of material resources and the unfolding of the zodiac, the Fixed quality of Taurus along with its elemental rulership of Earth, often makes Taurans highly concerned with values, though not necessarily materialism – though this can be a failing.
Some Taurans find great happiness living a very simple life. This could be in working part-time, making the most of an allotment or small holding and improving their homes through the patient marshaling of resources.
Yet other Taurans can take great pleasure in a totally calorific lifestyle of much wine and good food and plenty of excursions to the shopping mall to indulge in some serious retail therapy. Not only can this stretch the patience of their personal banker but also the elastic in their waistlines!
But the bigger picture shows Taurans to be constant, able to work towards long term goals but who can get stuck in ruts of beliefs or attitudes which makes them closed to evolving as easily as some signs.
Taurans are without doubt very sensual however, and make ardent lovers and stable long term partners. However, obstinate sometimes jealous attitudes, can be very damaging to relationships and Taurans can have a tendency to try to take the object of their affection away from other distractions, which over time can starve the relationship of air and new influences.
Famous Taurans include: Queen Elizabeth II, reformer Oliver Cromwell, playright Will Shakespear, Adolph Hitler, daddy of analysists Sigmund Freud, singer/actress Cher and footballer David Beckham.

The need for transparency in your relationships or collaborations becomes impossible to ignore.

WC 8th December
Taurus 21 April – 21 May
Socialising and collaboration become both the challenge and the key. As Neptune turns direct, certain friendships or alliances reveal their true nature, helping you discern who’s really aligned with your dreams. You may need to navigate differing opinions before a bold, even unconventional idea gains traction. Mercury’s return to an intense zone sharpens your perception, allowing you to read between the lines.
taurus Monthly Horoscope
December Monthlies
Taurus 21 April – 21 May
You do appreciate solid friends and can make allowances for the odd foible, knowing that none of us is perfect. Yet if one person, or even a romantic interest, proves to be just too demanding or controlling – as the month goes on, that part of you which has embraced a more individual way of being in recent times can be triggered, and may see you wanting to enjoy more personal freedom and space. If this doesn’t show up for you, the last ten days of December can give you a greater than usual appetite for travel and new experiences. And whether it is winter sun or snow, it could prove a lot of fun.
