The second sign of the Zodiac, Taurus enjoys the good life - both physical pleasure and material goods. But although like the bull they can be somewhat bull-headed and stubborn, sometimes that stubbornness is simply commitment, their desire to finish a task no matter what. Taurus isn’t afraid to roll up his sleeves and work hard to earn big rewards. They find it easy to make money and they’ll stay on the same project for years until it’s completed.

Taurus is modest and doesn’t seek popularity. They’re sensitive, keen witted, and humble by nature. Their truthfulness makes them good-natured, reliable, and faithful friends. They’re always there for the people they love. The influence of Venus ensures they enjoy being surrounded by beauty and love, comfort and luxury.

As an earth sign, Taurus has the ability to see things from a grounded, practical, and realistic perspective. They tend to be overprotective, conservative, and devoted to both people and ideals. They’re patient, loyal, dependable, and often somewhat conservative. However, they don’t like sudden changes or criticism.

Famous Taurus include: Queen Elizabeth II, William Shakespeare, Robert Browning, Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire, Sigmund Freud, Kelly Clarkson, Barbara Streisand, Renee Zellweger, Dwayne Johnson, and Audrey Hepburn.
