Taurus - Profile

Profile

The Earth element of Taurus brings strength and the desire for solid ground, form and
structure. Preservation is important. The Bull's fixed motivation seeks first to stabilize, then
produce. Ruled by loving Venus, Taurus has great emotional depth. Friends and lovers rely on
the warmth and emotional accessibility of this sign. Taurus represents consistency, loyalty, and
patience. Fixed earth can be very rigid, too cautious to take some of the risks necessary in life.
Sometimes the Bull ends up temporarily stuck in the mud. He or she may not want to rise to
every challenge or potential. And stubborn? Ah yes! The Taurus Bull may always surface. This
sign's Yin energy can go too far; Taurus becomes very, very passive -- even lazy. Balance
comes with a reliable plan, one that satisfies Taurus' need for stability while allowing for action
and accomplishments.
