What are the Personality Characteristics Associated with the Astrological Sign Taurus?
In astrology, Taurus refers to those born 21 April through 21 May, and is the second sign of the Zodiac. A Fixed Earth sign, Taurus is stable, productive, and practical. The typical Taurus has to learn not to be afraid of being more open to new ways of doing things rather than always sticking with the tried and true. Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty and attraction. A controlled Venus translates to cultured beauty, while an out of control Venus can lead to promiscuity. Venus is also associated with love and the classic Taurus has a loving, nurturing nature.
