Taurus the Bull
[b]Taurus Characteristics and Profile[/b]
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 Taurus 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 Taurus will not be distracted from your goals. Your need for stability and simplicity can motivate Taurus to create a life for yourself that is quite functional, though it might seem boring to someone else. But Taurus aren't interested in taking unnecessary risks that can put your solid footing in jeopardy.
Taurus 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 Taurus, along with nice linens, clothing, food and music. And, as one of the most practical signs, Taurus outlook on life is usually quite sensible. As Taurus 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.
[b]Element: Earth[/b] Earth signs are naturally practical. In this lifetime we are bound to Earth. There is no escaping the reality around us. The Earth is about as real as it gets; it can be felt, weighed and it has substance. Accordingly, the earth signs base their life on what is real, not what is imagined. Sensation is valued over thoughts or feelings. Earth signs live with their feet on the ground. Others seek their advice because of their basic sensibility. For earth signs, seeing is believing.
The earth of Taurus is simple and sensible. It's about getting back to basics. This is about working the earth in a garden or about having the tools that we need in order to build.
[b]Second House: Possessions[/b] The Second House symbolizes those things that are of value to us. Personal possessions are within this domain, as is our money. Anything having personal value is associated with the Second House. It also represents those things we value that are not things. When you think about what is most important to you -- your own values -- you are indeed thinking about your Second House.
[b]Key Planet: Venus[/b] Venus is the planet of love and desire. She is in charge of romance and beauty. But Venus isn't only about physical love; she's also symbolic of the ideal love. When we see a beautiful painting or other work or art, Venus is present. She is the beauty of a rose as much as she is the attraction we have to someone we love. As the key planet of Taurus, Venus is sensual and simple. We fulfill the senses with beauty and life is good.
[b]Taurus Greatest Strength:[/b] Your sensible outlook on life
[b]Taurus Possible Weakness:[/b] Accepting less than you can achieve

[b]What's Sexy About Taurus Women[/b]
Taurus women are the ultimate Earth mothers. Ruled by sensual Venus, you're in touch with your instinctive bodily charms. Like Bulls Kirsten Dunst and Cate Blanchett, your sexiness comes from a delightful combo of strength and vulnerability. You know what you want -- which men find attractive -- but you're not overly aggressive about going after it. Your sensuous touch and caring heart are second only to your most compelling quality -- your sultry voice. You know the power of a gentle word at the right moment.
There's a bit of the down-home gal in you. You're confident about your creative talents, from making a home-cooked meal to cultivating prize-winning roses. Your self-assurance is a turn-on to men, as is your occasional stubbornness. You're at home in your body and really get into the physical act of lovemaking. When you take his hand with that knowing smile and lead him to the bedroom, he can't resist. And, sharing a plate of oysters or a decadent hot fudge sundae really gets you in the mood!
[b]Dating The Taurus Woman[/b] (April 20 to May 20)
This woman loves to be spoiled rotten. She not only enjoys receiving things, but she loves to be stroked and pampered. Your Taurus date has excellent taste, and she loves to spend money -- hers or yours -- to satisfy her exquisite palate. Clue: Don't indulge her every fancy. But whatever you do, don't nickel and dime her. She actually can give as much as she loves to get, so you're only going to wind up losing out in the end if you go cheap.

[b]What You See in Your Taurus Man[/b]
There's an earthy charm and confidence about the Bull that makes him sexy. Even if he's not classically handsome, his sweet ways get him just about anything or anyone he wants. Fun and flirtatious, when it comes to commitment he moves slowly, like his other animal, the tortoise. As with Taurus Jack Nicholson, he's apt to stay single until someone really special comes along. But if he knows you're "The One," he'll take his time and wait 'til you come around.
Taurus is good with his hands and very sensual -- trading massages really turns him on. He's also tuned in to his body -- and yours! -- which makes him a sensitive lover. Unflappable and serene (unless pushed too far), he'll make you feel safe. He can get stuck in ruts, however. Often broad-chested and a bit fleshy, his warmth is comforting on chilly nights. Ruled by artistic Venus, he's both creative and practical. He'll build you a cabinet or plan your portfolio, and feel manly doing so. To thank him in a way he'll really appreciate, savor a deluxe hot fudge sundae together -- in bed.
[b]Dating The Taurus Man [/b] (April 20 to May 20)
This guy loves to share the good life and mutually enjoy creature comforts. The main problem is getting him away from what makes him so comfortable, like being plopped in front of the TV on his plush couch with a cold beer. Cure: Entice him with newer pleasures and more sensual delights. Purposely shake him out of his comfort zone every once in a while.

Re: Taurus the Bull
[b]How to Seduce a Taurus [/b]
Slow and steady wins the race with Taurus. These folks want to savor the courtship phase of a relationship. Be sure to show up on the first date with a bouquet of flowers or some other beautiful token of your appreciation. Bulls love presents. A subtle splash of cologne will work like a love magnet on Taurus, as this sign is extremely responsive to sensual stimuli. If you've got an earthy sense of humor, don't hide it. Nothing gets Taurus in the mood like a spicy joke.
If you're a Taurus, you like to seduce people with soft words, encouraging caresses and generous gestures. Your knack for gift-giving is unparalleled. Having a velvet voice doesn't hurt your chances, either.
[b]Head-for-Bed Line:[/b] (Pointing to Bull's tush) "Excuse me, is that seat taken?"
[b]Making Up With Taurus [/b]
Taurus is the most stubborn sign in the zodiac. If the two of you have had a fight, you need to admit that your lover was right in the first place. Until you do, your conversations will remain stalled. It’s also good to craft a plan that will help you deal with future conflicts in a constructive, healthy way. That way, you will ease the fears of your security-conscious lover.
[b]Taurus' Most Compatible Signs:[/b] Capricorn Virgo Cancer Scorpio Pisces
[b]Best Match For Taurus Is Cancer [/b] This is an excellent match and you will find it hard to tear yourselves away from one another! Stay clear of getting too wrapped up in one another though...
[b]Worst Match For Taurus is Pisces [/b] Most certainly you will find the deep, introspective Pisces mysterious, but you could very well be an open book to impressionable Pisces, easily read and manipulated. These things can be overcome, of course, but all things considered, it is not a good match.

Re: Taurus the Bull
[b]Possible Health Concerns...[/b]
Taurus governs the throat and neck and its subjects need to beware throat infections, goiter and respiratory ailments such as asthma. They are said to be at risk of diseases of the genitals, womb, liver and kidneys, and of abscesses and rheumatism. Because their body type has an inclination to physical laziness, Taureans can be overweight.
[b]PROBLEMS THAT MAY ARISE FOR YOU, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS [/b]
As with all sun signs, we all have unique traits to our personalities. When these traits are suppressed, or unrealized, problems will arise. However, with astrology we can examine the problem and assess the proper solution based on the sun sign characteristics. As a Taurean you may see things below that really strike home. Try the solution, you most likely will be amazed at the results. If you find yourself on the receiving end of the negatives below, it is because you are failing to express the positive.
[b]PROBLEM:[/b] Having feelings of being used and manipulated, led down the garden path and made a sucker of. [b]SOLUTION:[/b] Realize that your magnetism attracts negative as well as positive influences. You need to choose your friends, not let them choose you.
[b]PROBLEM: [/b] Physical things start loosing their appeal, and you feel more and more out of touch with the world around you. You stop caring so much about how much money you have among other physical concerns. [b]SOLUTION:[/b] You are starting to discover an inner harmony that is trying to replace the physical with spiritual. You must let this grow without killing the part of you that provides sustenance for your family.
[b]PROBLEM:[/b] Unexplained fear of loss, jealousy and a paranoia that others are out to get you. [b]SOLUTION:[/b] You have within you the ability to not only attract faithfulness, but also the intellect to see what is truly going on around you. You are loosing faith in both of these personal traits. Rebuild that faith.
[b]PROBLEM:[/b] Feeling depressed with life. Disgusted and dissatisfied. People around you are little comfort. You feel that life lacks meaning. Easily addicted to physical pleasures. [b]SOLUTION:[/b] Revisit and realize the value of spiritual things in life. Take control of your life by realizing it is not the things in life that are important, but the spirit behind it all.

Re: Taurus the Bull
[b]Jan. 22-23: Slow Down to Make it Last[/b]
Reality returns with a vengeance, demanding accountability for any recent lack of discipline in financial or emotional matters. This clarification of values, thanks to a Venus-Saturn opposition, brings trust that encourages frank communication. Brilliant ideas are spawned like seeds in the wind. Slow down to capture the best ones to turn them into reality. Shift from talk to action to create something lasting out of this wealth of information

Re: Taurus the Bull
The color of choice for Taurus is [b][color=pink]PINK[/color] [/b]
Your Starstone is the EMERALD Emeralds from Egypt are known to date from about 330 B.C., and indirect evidence suggests that Egyptians were mining emerald as early as 1300 B.C. The name emerald comes from the greek smaragdos meaning "green stone" and probably referred, in fact,not just to emeralds but to all or many green gems. Emerald boasts a great deal of folklore. It was used as a burnt offering, a symbol of St. John, and supposedly was a poison antidote, a cure for fevers and epilepsy, eye relief (due to the exceptional color), a cure for dysentery and leprosy, a cure for ophthalmia and bleeding, a cure for stomach problems (when laid on the stomach), and a good laxative.

Re: Taurus the Bull
[b]This Weeks Horoscope (Jan.22-28)[/b]
[b]Taurus (Apr 19-May 20):[/b]
This week's horoscope suggests you have your dreams and your goals to reach. This week proves to you that with a little elbow grease, determination and persistence you can achieve your desires. The Sun in your 10th house brings attention and recognition to you. While this may be a good thing Taurus is unusually shy theses days. Sometimes you may feel better if everyone would just stop watching you so much. On the flip side of this you are getting attention and if you perform and do well in all your endeavors the rewards are great this week. With Mars in your solar 9th house a sense of purpose pervades your being, and you feel as if you have something important to focus on. many of you may find yourself happily staying late to make your boss happy or to complete and important project. The planets are energizing you for success this week. Long lost love interests may try to contact you but, it's iffy if Taurus is interested in going back to a past love. As Venus enters Pisces, it's possible that you could experience a love at first sight magical moment. Work through the hesitation and summon up all your courage to speak to that special someone!
