General:
The purest Taurean tends to be 'earthly', slow but sure. Sometimes awkward, clumsy but also dignified. Good looking, strong in body and personality. A faithful and generous friend. Gentle and even tempered. Loves comforts and luxuries of every kind. Will do anything to maintain security. Always follows experience. Can be stupidly hostile to change.
Positive:
Solid, practical, straight, loyal, stable, affectionate, modest.
Negative:
Can be melancholic. Slow to anger but when provoked very violent and furious, like a bull.
Possible Health Concerns:
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.
Problems that may arise for Taurus:
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.
The animal associated with you sign is this tough looking bull. The Egyptian Hourus was the bull of heaven, and a white bull was sacrificed in Babylonia at the New Year to placate Ramman, the god of thunder and lightning.
The color of choice for Taurus is PINK
Your ruling planet is VENUS
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. |
