Taurus is an Earth sign, known for having their self-esteem, in tact! Venus ruled, there is a focus on love, art and money. It is tactile sign, that likes to keep things simple.
I arrived in Hollywood without having my nose fixed, my teeth capped, or my name changed. That is very gratifying to me.

Have a Taurus quote? Post it!
“It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living”
David Attenborough (one of my favourite ever taureans)
“I don’t need to play with my toys, I just like to have them.” — my daughter
Okay I don’t have quote, but I do have a good friend who is a double Taurus and she hates her Taurus-ness. Is that a Taurus quality usually (I know I’m generalizing..) ?
When i first got into astrology i was dismayed at how taureans were portrayed, indeed all earth signs. Fire signs are seen as exciting, air as the great communicators, water emotional depth but earth are always seen as the workers, the plodders who get things done. Sounded very dull and completely unlike me and for a while i was almost embarrassed to be one. But earth signs to me now are like a warm hug. They seem much more in touch with nature (earth) than the other elements and more aware of how things work. I love being a taurean now. Someone on another forum wrote this to a taurean not fond of their sign and it sums it up..
‘Not fond of your own sign? That’s odd. I always imagine the garden of Eden as the natural hang-out for Taurus: In the daytime calmly doing a bit of gardening, growing the earth, writing lovely poems and songs and music. In the evening, pleasant hearty meals cooked to gourmet standards, followed by hours of passionate love.
Natural born lovers, loyal friends and colleagues, decent upstanding citizens, patrons of art, amazing cooks…what’s not to like!’
“You have to work hard, and you have to have patience” says I (the Taurus/Cancer) to my mom (Aries/Leo) while re-doing the house. She laughs and goes to watch TV.
SD has a Taurus moon. She bought some new pants one November and they were about falling off. I asked her why she didn’t get the right size. They were two sizes too big.

If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it; that surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.

After being married for 17 years, my husband and I want on a cruise.
As we sat at the piano bar being entertained, the entertainer asked if there anybody was celebrating an anniversary. I proudly raised my hand.
He asked, “How many years?”
“17!” I replied.
“Wow! You two look so young. What kind of advice can you offer to others to stay together?”
Thinking for a moment, I said…
“Don’t leave!”
I was very proud of my Taurus wisdom there. 🙂
taurus – LMAO!
In our hands, and in our hands alone lies the destiny of the German people! Only if we raise our German people through their own labor, their own industry, their own determination and daring, their own perseverance, only then shall we rise again.

Z – I agree too. Learning astrology and reading the earth signs was soo dry, predictable and boring.
20 years later I’ve come to love my Taurus…being stable is a really good quality to have.
“I’m very happy at home. I love to just hang out with my daughter, I love to work in my garden. I’m not a gaping hole of need.” – Uma Thurman
“I’m not a gaping hole of need” – perfect.
One of the most stunningly nice things said to me was from my adult nephew, halfway through his neurology residency. “All the years growing up, whenever there was a crisis and we didn’t know how we’d get through it, I’d turn around and you were there.”
“Thanks for dinner, honey. I’m going to go into a food coma now.” – My Taurus husband
I always talk about my digestion as if it’s something I actively do myself, for which I need to lay down.
From my favorite Taurean, George Carlin:
“Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don’t have time for all that.”
I love Taurus people. They are like a breath of fresh air. Down to earth, usually very funny and easy to be around. Creative, warm and great cooks usually. Good folk! And they are the ruler of my Seventh house so we get along fabulously!
so far the taurus people ive met in life are either became my enemies or just plain an acquaintance. their practicality is too wordly. their ego are just too high.
“Kids today don’t understand about commitment.” Or so says my thirty-something Taurus husband regarding the recent divorce of a friend. I told him he sounded like an old man. He just said that he understood loyalty and commitment, and if that made him sound old, fine by him.
Happy birthday to all Taurus!
May you be treated to beautiful gifts, a delicious meal, followed by a massage, fed a few more grapes, slow lazy sex and a cuddly nap.
My Mom, Taurus,yes,I could go on and on re (misguided) loyalty etc.
But she did have a classic bull trait, and that while being mostly calm, handling things well etc etc.
But watch out, when bulls get mad and have reached the end of their rope, (but only on occasion) they really rage, an it can be shocking.
Can this be any Taurus? I just asked my favorite Taurus (sun and rising), if I could quote him on anything, what would he want the world to know?
He said, “Human beings would be much happier if they were naked”.
Does that sound Taurean? 🙂
I say that when I think about clothes that make me uncomfortable… pants and bras, etc. The moment I get home it all comes off. But there are some clothes that feel better than being naked.
Where no oxen are, the crib is clean, but much increase is by the strength of the ox.

It’s Taurus season again 🙂
Visiting the KEB and his wife yesterday.
Mrs KEB, the Taurus, is still in bed. She calls out from behind the bedroom door.
Love, can you toast me a bagel please?
