Taurus horoscope
What's your horoscope, Taurus? The two words that sum you up are: "I have". You have unequalled patience, are very resourceful but you are also very aquisitive.
So who are you really Taurus? What's your best colour? What's your lucky number? Who are you compatible with?
Even if you do not believe in astrology or "the stars", I bet that you know what your starsign is! This lens gives the background to the starsign of Taurus and links to your horoscopes.
But if you are more curious and would like to plot your birth chart, Taurus, there's also links to free downloads to help you.
Astrology is an ancient science, (unlike the modern sciences of biology, physics and chemistry) that focuses on the individual as the centre of the universe. Astrology is based on the belief that the makeup, or "character" of each individual is determined at the moment of birth.
By analysing one's birth chart Astrologers believe that it is possible to determine that individual's purpose in life, their talents, as well as positive and negative characteristics.
So, who are you Taurus and what do the stars predict for you?

What does 2012 have in store for Taurus?
We need not feel ashamed of
flirting with the zodiac.
The zodiac is well worth flirting with.
D H Lawrence
Stop are you sure you are a Taurus?
Born on the cusp?
If you were born on the day the Sun moved into a new sign then you were born "on the cusp". For example in the year I was born the sun moved into the next star sign, just two hours before my birth. Are you absolutely sure that you are an Taurus? Or are you really an Aries or a Gemini?
If you were born "on the cusp", (ie around the 20th April or 20th May) use this link to check exactly which star sign the sun was in the day you were born: Whispering Worlds

According to Greek mythology, Zeus fell in love with Europa, the daughter of the King of Tyre. Because Europa was constantly guarded by her father's servants Zeus changed himself into a beautiful white bull with golden horns. He then mixed with the herds, that belonged to the King of Tyre and which were grazing in a large field by the sea. Europa was walking along the beach and noticed this beautiful animal which she went up and fed. The splendid bull was so beautiful and friendly that she climbed onto its back and grasped its golden horns.
Gradually the white bull wandered onto the beach, ran into the water and began swimming towards the island of Crete. By this time is was too late for Europa to climb off. When they eventually came ashore, Zeus changed himself back into his own form. Realising that he could not marry her himself, Zeus gave Europa in marriage to Asterius, the King of Crete.
The constellation of Taurus only shows the head of the Bull, because his hind quarters are under water as he swims towards Crete.
Venus
The ruling planet of Taurus
Taurus is ruled by the planet Venus, which represents love, beauty, peace, magnetic attraction, harmony and the arts.

The Elements
Taurus is an Earth sign
The Zodiac is divided into four Elements: Earth, Air, Fire and Water, which represent the four basic modes of being. Signs that share an Element are generally regarded to be harmonious with each other.The Element of Taurus is "Earth" which it shares and is compatible with Virgo and Capricorn.
The Element of Earth stands for man's material resources, his environment and his possessions and belongings.

The Qualities
Taurus Quality is Fixed
The signs of the Zodiac are also divided into Qualities: Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable and signs that share a Quality are generally regarded to be hostile to each other.
The Quality relates to the basic temperament of an individual, who will have a prevailing identifying characteristic that is rarely altered through life - nor does it need to be. Each of these Qualities views the world very differently, their reactions to stimuli are different so that any action they take will be different too.
The Quality of Taurus is "Fixed"
A "fixed sign" is a sign of the zodiac that marks the midpoints of the seasons and therefore Taurus occurs during the fullness of Spring.
Fixed signs tend to be stable individuals who are solid and inflexible. They are wary of change, particularly new ideas and ways of doing things. However, they are full of purpose and are totally loyal to their family, friends and beliefs.
Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius are also fixed signs and are therefore less likely to be compatible with Taurus.

that, to me, is unnatural.
Jessica Lange

Taurus yearly horoscope
What's your horoscope for this year Taurus?
Fetching RSS feed... please stand byTaurus lucky colour: Green
The colour associated with the planet Venus
Green suggests nature as in plants and forests, life, stability and restfulness and has come to represent the environment but it can also represent jealousy and envy. Green should never be worn on serious or "sensible" occasions. It has a soothing effect on the nerves and has come to symbolise prosperity.
Green has also been regarded as the colour of eternal life, as seen in evergreens which never change their colour or shed their leaves. Because it can have a soothing effect green is often used in hospitals - it is thought to help lower the stress levels of both patients and carers. Green it is believed to an unlucky colour for those who are about to be married, but is otherwise considered lucky if an individual wishes to attract attention.
Positive qualities of green: Harmony, balance, refreshment, universal love, rest, restoration, reassurance, environmental awareness, balance and peace.
Negative qualities of green: Boredom, stagnation, blandness, lack of energy
Taureans are also drawn to deep blues, violets and sometimes pastels or florals, preferring soft patterns that are suggestive of nature or natural things. They are also attracted to soothing colours that created harmony and peace, such as the calming tone of lilac. Taureans can also be helped by yellow, which inspires the mind and helps to offset the inherent tendency of this Sign toward laziness and lethargy.
Other favourable colours: Pink, orange, cream, coral, white, bright brown, black
Unfavourable colours: Grey, dull brown, red, variegated colours, faded colours
