Sun Sign in Taurus
Source: Joanna Martine Woolfolk
- Birth Dates: (April 20 – May 20)
- Feminine
- Element: Earth
- Quality: Fixed
Taurus is quiet, affectionate, patient, stable, determined and practical, stubborn, and resistant to change.
- Ruling Planet: Venus, the Roman goddess of beauty and the arts, pleasure, emotions. In astrology, Venus’s influence inclines toward a love of luxury and exceptional creative ability.
- Symbol: The Bull
Strong, stubborn, plodding, can be both fierce and gentle. The glyph 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).
Polarity: Scorpio
Taurus is the sign of property and money. Its natives put high regard on collecting possessions and are known to cling to what is theirs. Scorpio, Taurus’s opposite sign, is the sign of legacies and shared wealth. The wealth of Scorpio people tends to be spiritual rather than material, which they give to others in the form of teaching, writing, and the healing arts.

Many Taurus people have beautiful speaking and singing voices. But they are vulnerable to colds, laryngitis, sore throats, and thyroid problems.

___________________
You are the person others count on in the clutch, the one who perseveres when less determined spirits fall by the wayside. Because perseverance is the quality most needed for success, you tend to be successful. You are not the pioneer who first strikes out for new territory, but the determined settler who follows and builds houses and towns and cultivates the soil.
There is a pronounced stubborn streak in you. Your greatest strength resides in your tenacity and steady, relentless drive. You are a purposeful achiever who has endless patience to see a thing through, to make it a success. You are the original immovable object and irresistible force.
Taurus is a fixed sign, which means its natives are not fond of change. You simply cannot be rushed into anything new. A different approach creates unease and anxiety in you. You are most comfortable and secure with the familiar. Everyone knows you have a temper, although you rarely show it.
You need order in your life—you get anxious when things are out of control. And because the unfamiliar makes you feel insecure, you tend to cut yourself off from fresh experiences. You need to be more open to change. Having beautiful things is important to you, and your instinct for collecting even spills over into relationships.
You hold fast to those you care about. You have a few close friends rather than many casual acquaintances. In love, you’re happiest when involved in a caring, committed relationship. You’re deeply sensitive—a rebuff or harsh word is very upsetting to you—and with strangers, you often feel self-conscious.
You’re thought of as a serene influence, someone to depend on, and you’re admired for your organized mind. Not many people realize that you’re sensitive and easily wounded. You are trusted as a tastemaker, and your artistic and esthetic opinion is welcomed. Because you have sound instincts about money, your financial advice is also sought. On the other hand, people resent your tendency to be dogmatic. Even if you’re right, others don’t understand why you have to be so unyielding.

Venus in Taurus mood board
First of the Fire Signs, Aries’ temperamental and dynamic nature is heightened. This Zodiac Sign is one of activity, adventure, and interest in just about everything. Much like a flame freshly ignited in a fireplace full of kindling, Aries has plenty of room for growth and expansion. For the same reason, Aries also is associated with a rather innocent and childlike quality.
First of the Earth Signs, Taurusis the most strong and stable. They seek a life full of harmony and happiness. Like the crust of the Earth, Taurus provides a solid foundation. Taurus is warm and nurturing, loving to care for anyone and everyone. They thoroughly enjoy material comforts, especially those with high aesthetic quality.
First of the Air Signs, Geminiis the most flighty. Much like a “dust devil,” this Zodiac Sign spins erratically through life without slowing down, meanwhile, they pick up carry with them anything lucky enough to fall in their path. This Sign also indicates a feeling of incompletion; as Gemini drifts along the wind searching for someone to make them feel complete.
First of the Water Signs, Cancer caring and empathetic nature is heightened. This Zodiac Sign is known for being genuine, compassionate, nurturing, and helpful, along with being reserved and secretive, wary to open up to anyone but those closest to them. Though this Sign is known for being gentle, Cancer can become quite aggressive when they need to defend themselves or those they care about – like a river that spills it’s banks.
As the middle Fire Sign, Leo enjoys being in the center - center of attention and center stage, to be specific. This Zodiac Sign is like fire at its peak; strong and steadily sharing its warmth and light. Leo is dependable, and grandiose, with a knack for making their presence known. With such a regal nature, Leo can comfortably command a crowd.
As the middle Earth Sign, Virgo is like the Middle of the Earth – not on one side, or the other; not too soft or too rigid, too hot or too cold. This Zodiac Sign is stable, observing, analytical, and helpful – Virgo carefully observes those around them, stepping in precisely when help is needed. Virgo isn’t as materialistic than the other Earth Signs; instead, this Sign often becomes rather fixated on taking comfort in order and organization.
As the middle Air Sign, Libra’s air is steady and reliable – much like the vital air we breathe. Libra seeks harmony, balance, and peace. They thrive on relationships – romance is as vital to Libra as oxygen is. Libra provides for loved ones like air provides for humanity.
As the middle Water Sign, Scorpio enjoys observing those around them. Like a raging river, Scorpio is both intense and powerful. Rivers shape and control the environment in which they exist. Similarly, Scorpio’s tend to control both themselves and their environment. Fully equipped with an equally intuitive and cunning nature, Scorpio has a knack for revealing secrets.
As the last of the Fire Signs, Sagittarius is the bottom of the fire – the unknown part, the mysterious part. Sagittarius is philosophical. Fire’s creative and idealistic nature is especially strong in this Zodiac Sign. Sagittarius is the most gentle of the Fire Signs, symbolic of fire slowly nearing its end.
As the last of the Earth Signs, Capricorn is much like the lowest part of the Earth – the part that is shrouded in mystery, mostly unable to be studied, and composed by various minerals and elements. Capricorn enjoys materialistic possessions and public status. This Zodiac Sign is logical, realistic, stable, and steady. Capricorn values their social standing and will often fight to preserve it.As the last of the Air Signs, Aquarius symbolizes the jet steam that flows high above our humanly forms. This distance allows them to observe those around them in their mission to achieve originality and progress. Aquarius can be unpredictable and erratic, but also are known for their advanced thinking.
As the last of the Water Signs, Pisces is highly philosophical and spiritual. Much like a small creek that changes directions by even the most gentle of environmental factors. This Zodiac Sign is mystical, calm, and have lovely charm – like the creek that artists venture to for inspiration to paint their canvas. Pisces value beauty in their lives, both physical art and beautiful personalities.

What Aries Want You To Know:
Being aggressive, mean, or overly dominating is almost never the Ram’s intention. Aries know what they want, and how to get it - sometimes so caught up in the race to the finish line that they forget to watch where they’re going, and can bump into other people in the track.
Similarly, Aries tend to have a protective nature to them, and want to take care of their loved ones. This may cause them to be a bit over-bearing, but they usually have the best intentions, and truly care about their friends and loved ones.
What Aries Don’t Want You To Know:
Aries are actually really fragile on the inside. They hate to be scolded because they want people around them to love them and see them shine. It hurts when they’re mocked, or anything else along those lines. Anger is just a natural way to respond, and Aries don’t hold that back! Aries are pretty close to their instincts and anger is just a natural way to survive. So why fight it?
Aries act confident, and like they know what they’re doing. Most of the time, they don’t. They believe the phrase “fake it until you make it” and use their confidence as a tool to maneuver through their life.
Aries: “I have an extra ticket for a fire dancing workshop next weekend. Wanna come?”
Taurus : “I own a winery/cookie shop. I’d love for you to come by for a tour and some free samples.”
Gemini: “I feel like I could talk with you nonstop for days.”
Cancer: “This might sound crazy, but I can already feel myself falling in love with you.”
Leo: “I couldn’t help but notice that you’re the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen in my life.”
Virgo: “I really want to get to know you, but first let me reorganize these party napkins by size and color.”
Libra: “I love your shoes. And your dress. And your necklace. And your hair. And your eyes.”
Scorpio: “You are the most intriguing, mysterious, captivating person I’ve ever met. Wanna have sex?”
Sagittarius: “Your opinions are so brilliant and original–tell me more!”
Capricorn: “I’m the top executive managing president of international sales at the #1 marketing company in the greater Northern hemisphere.”
Aquarius: “ I’ve traveled all 50 states and 27 countries and I’ve never met anyone like you.”
Pisces: “Your eyes are like glimmering oceans of emotion. Suddenly I want to get lost at sea.”
I hate when people call Aries indifferent to others’ emotions.
In fact, they have been to be rather nosy into the lives, thoughts, and feelings of others. They (like Pisces) sometimes just get too caught up in their current emotional state to look to others. Their boastfulness is often a manifestation of their desire to impress, please, or involve other people.
Actually chill: Taurus, Sagittarius, Aquarius
Pretends to be chill but actually no: Libra, Gemini, Leo, Cancer
No fucking chill and doesn’t give a fuck about that: Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces, Aries, Virgo

Make everything taste like it is salt
Then you come through like the sweetener you are
To bring the bitter taste to a halt”

And have this fun and be successful
I’m so successful, yeah“

Fell from the sky into my lap
And I know you know that you’re my soulmate and all that“

Cherry
Drink up, it’s scalding hot.
Aries: you have impulse control/rage issues and sometimes u get so mad u end up crying and looking weak as fuck it’s fucking embarrassing,, also, you act tough and tell yourself you don’t care what people think, but you need other people more than they’ll ever need you.
Taurus: look, it’s not that you’re lazy, it’s that you don’t give a fuck and you can’t even if you’ve tried, boy did you try, your apathy will destroy your life. Look at you, wasting away because nothing matters until it’s too late.
Gemini: discretion? what’s that? Take a good look around- you talk, they nod, but no one’s listening. you might as well be invisible and mute. no one sees you, no one hears you, you’re just a fly buzzing in everyone’s ears.
Cancer: you’re really fucking desperate for people to care and tell you you’re a good person, your neediness drives people away and makes your worst fear come true, and it’s all your fault. Yes, you are a victim… of ur own stupidity.
Leo: you’re not special
Virgo: tbh u drag urself worse than I ever could and you know what? ur right. u do succ @ All The Things™ and you will never be good enough
Libra: you have codependency issues and are totally obsessed with getting people to like you regardless of how you feel about them. You settle and settle and settle and just when you think you can’t go any lower, boy, you find a way.
Scorpio: Paranoid… Insecure… Crazy, you’re crazy, only crazy people see things no one else sees, you hide because you know no one can love you once they get to know you
Sagittarius: I see ur abandonment issues. I see them from all the way over here. You try to keep your distance and leave before you bore them. You know you’ll always end up boring them, and you’re right.
Capricorn: “I don’t need them. They need me.” Bruh, you got it backwards.
Aquarius: you’re boring
Pisces: Stop acting weak and emotional to get people to take care of you and give a fuck, we all know you’re actually selfish and dead inside
this is so mean oh my god
