| Dr.Nikki's Zodiac Signs: |
| Taurus - the Bull |
April 20th to May 19th |
| Taurus, represented by the Bull, is the second sign of the Zodiac. As the second in the wheel, Taurus is the stabilizer. Normally quiet, affectionate and patient, Bull’s make great friends. Determined and practical they appreciate creature comforts |
| and will do much to ensure them in their lives. As the symbolic animal implies a Taurean can become “bull- headed” and stubborn. One of the ways to stir up the stubbornness of a Bull is to throw a bunch of change their way. Not only uncomfortable with it, the Taurus personality can be quite resistant to change. The positive energy of the Bull has been realized |
| throughout the millennia. It is believed that other than the Sun or Fire, the Bull was one of the first sacred beings to Man. Whether jumping the bull to show power; fighting the bull in a ring to show courage, daring and strength (as they still do in Spain); or using the Bull as a symbol of an upward trend in the Stock Market, Bull has long been associated with power, strength and wealth. Although strong, Bulls can be plodding and prefer to move at their own pace. The high-energy Bull personality is capable of drawing on personal reserves of strength which others find nearly unbelievable. Like the animals for which their sign is named, Taurus people can be either gentle and docile (like the happy contented Bull chewing on some nice spring shoots – Fernidad in the field of daisies) or the Bull can turn on you and try to gouge you with it’s horns. Ruled by the Planet Venus (named after the Roman Goddess of beauty and the arts, pleasure and, of course, the emotions) Bull’s tend to prefer the finer things in life. Your friend with the most comfortable feeling home when you walk in the door is the home of a Taurus. It’s almost a sure bet that your friend with the most comfortable couch is a Bull. That’s not to say they are afraid of hard work. Nicknamed “The Maintainer” in newer astrology definitions, Taurus people are more than willing to work to maintain a lifestyle acceptable to their personal tastes. With security so very important for Taurus to be happy, they will do much to ensure it for themselves and those they care for. People born on this sign are great career builders, especially in the area of financial services such as banking and insurance. Tending to love the warmth and the sunshine the Bull does well in the fields of agriculture or horticulture. Taurus rules the neck and throat – this is shown by the number of professional “crooners” or singers born in this sign. If you’re a Taurean looking for love, the best sign for you to look under is that of either Virgo or Capricorn. These folks will understand and appreciate your perchance for the comfortable. Beware the Leo or Aquarius personality unless you have overcome the natural tendency to dislike change, because change is so important to either of those signs. Opposites can attract with Taurus the dependable paired with Scorpio the idealistic as long as you allow for individual space. |
